Tennessee Vols Basketball Recruiting

[Weezer]

I expect TBG to reincarnate as a new alt soon.

 

[golfballs]

SEC bound and tampering? Sounds like something Pearl would do.

And Barnes apparently?

No comment.

Other than I really don't like Bruce Pearl.

TBG was probably the alt of 1985Vol. TBG had a serious vendetta and anger towards BTO similar to 85, so wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what this was.

247 has Tyrese Hunter as a 99 5* in the portal. I'd be okay if we were the ones tampering, but any other SEC team can suck it.

I'm obviously biased toward my school.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Yes, please. But, I won’t get my hopes up.

kid is obviously talented but am I the only one not impressed with his shooting numbers

 

[cardvolfan]

And Barnes apparently?

Nope, that’s not how this is going down.

 

[Weezer]

Tennessee. You're either with us or I don't like you and wish nothing but bad, especially if you're another SEC program.

 

[VolOnthePlains]

Wonder who he’s going to see on the 19th?

Key will be here on his OV along with Aden Holloway

 

[beefvol44]

Need Collins and Phillips bad.

 

[VolGee4]

LOL....I guess he isn't a guru anymore.

Do you know if there’s any chance of Holloway reclassifying? Not that we’re in desperate need of point guards

"I wasn't lying. My sources TOLD me that Yuri was staying at SLU. If I have to leave for getting something wrong, so should BTO. That guy is wrong all the time." - @TennesseeBasketballGuru prolly

 

[Jcg6592]

SLU fans on Twitter in pure meltdown mode lol. The “Power 5 Cartel” got to him and it apparently “makes no sense why he would leave a potential NCAA tournament team”.

I think the funniest one though is bunch of them are accusing him of announcing his clothing line, suckering SLU fans into buying his stuff, and then leave them after he took their money

I saw where they said he suckered them too too funny.

 

[Jimmy Football]

I’m shocked that a guy who’s only been on here a week, who only had negative recruiting info, who only showed agreement with negative opinions of the basketball program, and who aggressively attacked board regulars, turned out to be a troll.

 

[golfballs]

Nope, that’s not how this is going down.

How does he decide to transfer to Tennessee before entering the portal?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Saw a tweet from Rock Top Insider talking about Bates coming to UT...wonder if there is any chance that's accurate or if it's just another article throwing a name against the wall.

Click bait

First, he hasn’t committed to us. Secondly, there are so many layers to this situation. I would say don’t assume that Rick is somehow manipulating the rules, because he isn’t. That is an assurance, not an opinion.

BTO saying it’s a done deal. Assuming that might be the case, how can that happen without some degree of coordination?

I can tell you it is not a done deal, but likely to happen. It is in Yuri’s court right now. Yes, it does take some coordination, but Rick did nothing that would violate rules or his own personal ethics.

Programs/coaches reach out to family members/AAU coaches/people close to players all of the time. Happens everywhere. Heck, Collins could have called Kennedy Chandler himself and just inquired about his time at UT. It doesn't mean that a school is tampering. This is not unusual.

 

[cncchris33]

At this point he hasn’t taken any other visits, so most seem to think FSU or Tennessee, at least as it stands now. There’s some other back channel stuff going on there that I won’t dive too much into but Tennessee is in it, and ball in their court I guess you could say.

In other words, Tennessee (Spyre) has offer $xxx,xxx and he is requesting $xxx,xxx? Up to Tennessee (Spyre) to decide whether they want to match the asking price?

@TennesseeBasketballGuru...farewell, sweet prince.
