Barnes loves some Jesus kids

Who doesn't

 

[VOLtaism]

We have seen what Barnes can do without top 20 players. That is huge. Its going to be another great basketball season.

The Deacon was leading the altar call while the pep band was playing Just As I Am.

All 25 versus.

LFG

 

[TrapVol]

Wow! I logged off of Volnation literally minutes before this announcement and didn’t see it until this morning. What a huge pick up and what a huge relief!

 

[VA_VOLFAN]

He is from my hometown

[RockyTop140]

Excited to watch this kid play. Looks like the most talented freshman we’ve landed in a long time.

 

[The Dog]

KA-BOOM!

He was waiting for Nico to announce he’s going to UCLA so he could drop this and steal his thunder.

I hope so!

Basilio just said on his show that Tennessee is paying Ament $4.2 million.

If true, that is absurd.

Gotta pay to get a Top 5 recruit

@Stoerner Fumbles @bleedingTNorange this sound about right?

No, I understand that, but that number is astronomical.

Imagine like 6 mil the following season if he doesn’t go pro

Right...for that kind of money, why would you go pro if you aren't a slam-dunk top-10 pick? If that number is accurate, he's already getting top-20 pick type money.

Now, Ament is supposedly a lottery lock, but a lot can change in a year's time.

It’s why Toppin returned to TTU, more money in college than as a late 1st rounder

You still go no matter what. The second contract is massive and you don't want to risk or put that off for any reason if you're of the caliber of Ament.

Lottery yes, but thought process used to also be 1st round in general, that has shifted
