According to GVX, a source close to the program says he's returning.

We should be much improved next year with everyone back.

I agree. I know some people on this board is down on Tennessee basketball, but through my last four years in college, Vols basketball, not football, has sadly provided me with my greatest highlights. They say the freshman to sophomore leap is where players show the most improvement, so I'm hoping Hopson improves and maybe refines his 3 point shot. I'm also hoping Chism becomes the stud I see flashes of in him.

EDIT: And last year was a joke the way defenses just dog piled the paint. If we could just get one, maybe two legitimate 3 point threats, Tyler and Wayne should look way better.

I think this is a very important year for Pearl. He has no excuses to fall back on if he doesn't have this team ready to play. If we don't show significant improvement then I'll begin to question Pearl.

So how many more games does Tennessee win with Tyler than if he didn't come back?

Not many if we don't develop some three point shooting. If we can open the lane back up, we'll see Tyler, JP, and Chism look much better than last year. If I had to take a guess, I'd say Tyler improves us by +4 wins

I feel the same way.

Ditto on the three point shooting. Our lack of a perimeter threat probably cost Tyler a high spot in the NBA draft.
