'25 Portal Thread

[EJVOL4LIFE]

Revenue sharing isn’t quite in place last I heard. Danny was looking at it though and ahead of the curve on how to structure it. NIL is still a separate entity for now from revenue generated by the AD.

I was just referring to it also being used to fund payments for student athletes in general.

You misspelled Weezer. They should be "fahred" for not listening to the Yeti wiseman.

Lol
I agree

Best four year period in football in 20 years. Best baseball team in TN. Most sustained success in bball ever. Women’s team trending the right way.

Yeah - let’s drop a steamer in every thread while complaining about how terrible our teams are.

Totally

Not gonna lie. Totally underwhelmed by this Star news.

I agree with you. Can they explain how Vitello is recruiting elite classes ever since arriving at the bottom-feeding program, but somehow Heupel can’t even land a portal player with a program that is winning and a history of tradition?

 

[SugarCC]

Or you know, keep Keith or Seldon

Seldon, Jenkins, Matthews, and one of Nimrod, Webb, Leacock...wish we had been able to keep.

 

[DarthVol1]

Pretty much sums up this thread...

Underwhelming if this is the guy the insiders have been talking up.

 

[Moar Steam]

Are we being used again to jack up the price? One is not like the other three.

 

[GVol1966]

It’s Syracuse, TT, Washington.

If we get a visit I’d say the staff is interested.

 

[VolByLaw]

I don’t see him visiting

[SPEDVoL14]

Speed. Could use him with the lack of experience we have

 

[CamVol8]

no way this is the guy… cmon man

I think they would have already gone public if this was the guy. They aren't talking about the possible wr because he clearly isn't in the portal yet.

People keep using us to drive up the price lol. Gotta get a Solid receiver though. Gotta wonder if it’s Inniss from OSU.

 

[JacketVol]

Right? I had to laugh at all of the people who read this and then chimed in with follow up questions.

People need to understand that @Stoerner Fumbles is a very busy man running a global criminal enterprise, so he doesn’t have time to come back and “give clues” about which school your next WR plays for. He has key witnesses to execute, people!

Reddington

 

[VOLINVONORE]

That’s true, but he wasn’t 100% until February though. I hope he’s able to go, but im doubtful he will be the same player this year

SEC defensive player of the year.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Great, ran off KingVFL… good job idiots.

Blame B***hna

People keep saying this. Its basically saying UT sucks but they may be dumb enough to offer me a lot of money.

 

[therickbol]

I’ve heard a lot of talk of Farooq at Safety

Da Farooq you are!

Some say we’re broke??

Think so on Inniss

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

Wonder if we go after that Wash St OL. We were his first SEC offer out of HS.

I doubt it. I looked him up. He ain't too good.

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

He is probably our depth piece I would imagine.

 

[EJVOL4LIFE]

no way this is the guy… cmon man

Actually if you do the math, he has big play capability. He is averaging right at 20ypc and a td every 4 catches or so. You have to realize that their leading receiver, Harrison Wallace, only had 4 tds with 40+ catches and over 700 yards. That's just Penn State for you. Their main target was their All American TE, Warren, who did a little bit of everything. Maybe he could flourish in Heupels system. But I'm with you guys, I'm still waiting on our splash guy at WR. But just like McCoy, injuries can happen and we do need some depth.

AP said he doesn’t see him visiting.

So that’s good news.

I know we don't have much to go on when these guys jump in the portal, but I think making a judgment call purely on their stats is a mistake. Some guys suffer from bad chemistry, bad play calling, or a system that doesn't actually fit them. I'm optimistic that players can come here and get better, whether that's through typical age and experience based improvement or being coached up.

I'm sure these Penn State guys could ball out in a more dynamic, pass-focused offense. Think Big 12 football
