'22 TX WR Evan Stewart (Oregon)

This age of roster management is insane. Let’s say that Bru comes back and we get Stewart it is inevitable that at least 1 and I would stretch to say maybe 3 are gone after spring. Thornton/Nimrod/Webb/Leacock would be the 4 that I would be watching. Our depth for this year would be fine even if we lost up to 3 of them as you would have McCoy/White/Brazell/Stewart then one of the 4 listed and the two freshmen on the bench.

What would be wild then is 2025. Let’s say that Thornton is the only one of the 4 to stay that leaves Brazzell/White/Matthews/Staley. That would be if we are able to recruit White to come back vs the NFL. We are going to be super thin at the Wideout position headed into 2025 unless we are able to recruit well from the transfer portal and bring in at least 4 for the 2025 class.

At that risk you better think you’re going to do something special in 2024 and Stewart is going to take you over the top.

As much as I’d love to land this kid I’d rather us spend that money towards a stud defensive tackle

TBH there is nothing to say that Mike Matthews isn’t an Evan Stewart 2.0 and we already have his ability already on campus. The only difference could be that Stewart is already a proven commodity.

If Matthews and Stayley pan out, then it will be 3+ years before we’re thin at WR. Also, if those 2 pass any of the T, N , W, L group then they are likely portaling anyway. I suspect we will continue to recruit talented high school WR’s every year and look to add talent from the portal at all positions of need in the future.

There’s no way anyone can read this and not expect Evan Stewart to be on Tennessee’s roster next season. Thank you, SF.

Wrong again, plenty of reasons for him to extoll UT with no real plans to come here, chief among them is using our NIL status to maximize offers elsewhere. Just part of the brave new world. We may be wanting to help him better clean out other’s banks if his cost exceeds our number.

After watching him vs the Vols secondary, I wouldn’t pay much for him. Not a real factor in the game & that was with a stud ( Smith) on the outside.

Fingers crossed that we hit on both and we will need to bring in 3-4 2025 guys with 2 of them being ones that can contribute early. I do hope we are able to keep Leacock here. Of the Heupel HS WR recruits I liked his potential most just behind Squirrel.

Good post. Stewart is a 5ft11in slot WR...we already have Squirrel, Thornton and Matthews in the slot. Dont know why we are chasing him....but i trust CJH.

We need a good safety and if Jeudy Lally doesnt come back...a Corner too. Hope we are hard at work on that.
