'25 Portal Thread

[bpalmer28]

We must have evaluated the Branch brothers and said nah we good. Now we will continue to evaluate. We are also evaluating a RB. We will take a WR but only after evaluating them. I need to evaluate as a fan because of all the evaluations i’ve been seeing the Vols do

We need a more physical WR than Branch. JMO.

I’m just in a bad mood and not making a lot of sense

Messing with you. Looks like they were wrong and Matthews came right back anyway.

 

[VolByLaw]

Can we get some portal commitments now?

Bump.

 

[bpalmer28]

Would love to hear any update on anything we are doing in the portal..

Waiting on Georgia’s exodus to begin and waiting for Carnell Tate to finish up his season

Could use some Big Ten OLs as well but they are busy right now.

All baseless hopes, btw.

Hoping the Vols pull an offensive lineman out of the portal.

We did.

So glad he did. I was ready to beat my dog.

I want a home run threat at WR but if we just address Oline with great players I think that will be the biggest thing in wins and losses. People forget Heupel still hasn’t gotten to equal talent level or hell even numbers that the other teams have.

You are right on the nose. Branch was never happening after Mike decided to stay Sunday. Not what we need.

I don’t have the name of the WR but there is someone we are supposedly working on under the table in addition to Jefferson.

Here is a guy to watch out for at RB potentially.

Big fan of this. Lewis, Bishop, Edwards, and Morris is a diverse and dangerous backfield.

Amazed at this guy's speed at this size. Kinda built like Derrick Henry.

However, I LOVE we get UGA in week 3, Neyland at night. Perfect. Stockton or whoever won't be ready for that.

Huge change of fortune to have them at home in week 3 instead of on the road in week 11

So just gonna throw this out there: Banks leaves, does Heupel go after the VFL/newly jobless Jerod Mayo? No idea if he’d be interested in college nor how he faired as the linebacker coach at NE, but definitely intriguing.

Whoops, wrong thread. I’ll copy/paste to the right one. Sorry all!

Don’t evaluate the player; evaluate the game.
