'25 Portal Thread

I would say I’m disillusioned by the state of college athletics, but it’s really just Tennessee football. We should not be struggling to keep our own players after having arguably our best season in 2 decades. Some will try and spin it as “this happens to every team” but I don’t buy it. We have some serious issues right now, whether it’s development from the assistants, NIL, or just recruiting prowess.

I don’t find myself getting this worked up about TN baseball or basketball because those programs have proven to me they deserve our trust. I don’t think this staff has proven we should have blind faith in them yet.
We agree once again. We’re probably minorities in wanting to stay elite at baseball rather than sacrificing it and basketball to win more in football though.

I don’t take any insider on here seriously
Some come and go and leave a lot
Of bodies behind lol

It’s a message board
No reason to get to high it low
Reading it

I do like calling out ass holes that do troll a bunch though and I’m on to a couple. Certain things posted at certain times don’t add up always

Not saying your a troll but I always got by antenna up so to say

Well it looks like the insiders knew about this one. Maybe let it breathe.
 
We aren't serious........ Everyone is dealing with this..... Yet everyone who plans on contending isn't losing their best players.

The wheels fell off didn't they?

Certainly how it feels.
We literally haven’t lost anyone (yet) that would have changed anything for next year. Matthews would be a big loss, but he isn’t gone yet.
 
I've been following recruiting for over 30 years, and I'm still going with if a player doesn't want to be here, we damn sure don't want them to be. I'm also with many of you though, there needs to be changes on the staff if we're going to make it to the next level. Also, if you have coaches getting results on the field that will help with the players wanting to be here or not.
 
Enjoy the evening guys.

Made it through the portal season only losing an undersized slot receiver that really contributed when at different points it seemed pretty bad.

Big win in my mind. Excited to go get some guys. Go Vols.
Losing the WR room is going to suck, definitely have to bring in at least one… spring ball will be tough for the lack of bodies catching the ball. Might see Davis and Brame split out to take reps too
 
I just want to know who's tampering with Matthews. He's set to be our #1 receiver and everything was fine with him until tonight. Someone has gotten to him.
