Marvin West made the following observation in his blog: "Senior Day observation: Senior wide receiver Ramel Keyton, quarterback Joe Milton, linebackers Aaron Beasley and Juwan Mitchell, offensive linemen Jeremiah Crawford and Ollie Lane, cornerback Warren Burrell, safety Jaylen McCollough, defensive linemen Kurott Garland and Roman Harrison did not participate."

Are those guys coming back? If so, next year will look extremely bright! We really need the LB's and DL. Crawford returning on the OL would be huge. We'll probably lose Jr's Hyatt and Thomas because they've got a lot of money waiting for them.

I did not realize he was a senior...

I’d say all those are coming back or hitting the portal. Crawford is almost guaranteed to start. McCollough may be headed out depending on his case. Garland and Harrsonbwill be nice for depth. Mitchell and Beasley would be nice as they have the experience. Hoping that Tim Banks and Martinez hit the transfer portal.

Did Bru go through senior day? He’s a redshirt Junior I believe. Would be incredible to get him for another year

I don't believe Bru or Hyatt participated in senior day. Byron Young did though.

edit: I realize Hyatt is a junior, but I believe that sometimes they can participate if they know they'll be gone.

Hyatt could be a 2/3rd round pick this year or come back and be a first round next year. IMO, he needs to improve on his physicality and breaking tackles. He gets brought down by first tackler a lot and most of his catches are uncontested and wide open. He has elite speed and if he improves the physical side would be a solid first rounder. A LOT of money difference between 1st and 3rd round.

The decision could be made a lot easier if we can get him some NIL money

If i'm Hyatt I look over at Tillman and if it get a 2/3 round grade I'm out. Tillman got a bad turn of events man. He will still get drafted but that injury hurt him badly. That being said I honestly think Hyatt would be best served playing another year.

already projected as 1st rounder

Hyatt needs another year to get bigger but he should probably go if NFL money is a possibility. Injury to Tillman, although I don’t think that’s hurt his draft status, could be a concern for Hyatt’s thinking. I wish him well either way. He has done a lot to help himself and make this a magical season for Vol fans.

I hope Bru comes back but I don’t think that’s a certain. He has an NFL body and would probably be drafted at this point. Not a huge payday for him but he may go get some of that money too. I would not hold that against the young man. He has played a big part in this season as well. Go Big Orange.

I certainly hope all of those guys come back. They'll help us prevent any possible regression next year as all of them have been starters for us at one point. Can't have enough quality depth.

I actually like Tim Banks, I think his defense will be pretty damn good if we can get some help in the secondary, Martinez I could do without just like when he was here before our secondary never turn their heads to find the ball. We've had many opportunities for interceptions if they'd just look for the ball

I wish our WRs once again ran track like our guys did back in the day. Their get off and blazing speed was a major, major foundation for us becoming Wide Receiver U. Each of our receivers would gain a half-step or two, as I see it, or even more if they learned how to run with track sprint speed. Speed can beat man coverage…like GA’s. How many more TDs would Hyatt and Bru and Ramel Keyton have with another step or two? Bring in Willie Gault and Anthony Hancock in January to spell it out for them.

Why do you think the players we have now aren’t developed? Banks is a secondary coach.
