Honestly, if the “Wild, Wild West” continues with everyone’s a free agent, players moving to new teams every year, renegades out for the highest bidder, and essentially a brand new team comprised of 75% of portal transfers every year…. IF it comes to that (and we’re getting close) I will be done with college athletics. Of course I know that I’m probably an outlier, and that there will probably be a long line of folks to buy tickets and invest in TN athletics, but I will spend my time and money elsewhere…
I agree, but it won’t be easy. Ive loved college athletics for a long time. Will be hard to give up, but you’re right, its all heading in a negative direction. There are more outliers than you think!
 
At least we have Vitello and baseball. The only real bombshell transfer we’ve had was Burns and Vitello was immediately proven correct by winning a national championship while Wake Forest couldn’t even win a regional game. I will put all my efforts into the baseball program and Rick Barnes’ program for as long as he is here. I don’t have faith the next coach will instill the discipline Barnes has brought though.
I don’t know why he left, but I wonder how Chase Silseth could’ve panned out had he stayed here. He made it to the Angels pretty quick, but then suffered a concussion and elbow surgery. He’s in AAA now, working his way back.
