That is strange. Gabriel could be a good fit at Arkansas.

Nolan seems like he will require someone to overpay, but good for him.
The Wade twins could be intriguing. I defer to those who know more.

From the CBS Sports Cover 3 podcast ... If Garner wants Nolan then so do I.
Chip: Is Texas A&M defensive lineman Walter Nolan, former 5-star product, someone who really came on as a dominant player this year, would you say that's the top defensive option in the portal right now?
Bud: Yes, as of this moment. He is ready-made, impact defensive lineman. There's not a lot of guess work there. The guy is a stud. He'll get a huge bag wherever he goes.
Chip: It will be like when he was a recruit and all the big boys were there ready to pull it together for him. Cash in twice, good for you.
Tom: So which SEC team is he gonna end up at? Georgia? Alabama? Texas? [laughs]
Bud: I think maybe another orange team.
Tom: ...Clemson?
Chip: Syracuse!
Bud: Tennessee. He's from there, they recruited him hard the first time. I don't have a crystal ball pick in for it, but yeah.
Tom: Tennessee from Texas A&M? Is that an upgrade?
Chip: Texas A&M is losing a lot.
Tom: If I'm him, and I can go anywhere that I please... maybe it's just a thing where he wants to be closer to home, but if I can get a bag and play for a title contender it would be weird for me to go to Tennessee. But whatever.
Bud: When we did the show this past summer talking to different collective groups, I tried to pick ones that have good reputations, and Tennessee's has a really good reputation. The opportunities at Tennessee, especially if you're from there, could be pretty significant. But schools like Oklahoma and Texas, that's a big position of need for them. Miami is another one. He is going to be a coveted target for everyone.

Bud needs to ask a certain DL coach for the other orange team Nolan has talent to be sure, but he has a greater amount of baggage that he carries around |

Looks like the staff going in heavy the 1st portal weekend.
Several visitors, including a couple TEs (#1 priority IMO) and a WR
I suspect more might be coming as well

According to On3, Tennessee and Texas are emerging as schools to watch in the recruitment of South Carolina transfer Juice Wells.
You have to like this as I still have nightmares of him going wild against two years ago.

Also something to keep an eye on, OU's Nate Anderson entered the transfer portal yesterday. He is the older brother of UT commit Max Anderson.

Per Joly, he is no longer visiting this weekend
Sounds like we have moved on from him
I think the major effort will be for the ND TE, Staes.
He is more a true TE
Joly is more a hybrid TE/WR type, while good, we need a blocker for the running game who can catch

I'll take Nolen in a heart beat. Garner can keep him in line if anyone can. |

Vols need a lot better defensive coaching staff to influence these guys to come to Tennessee. It wouldn't hurt.

I can see a couple changes on the staff...Martinez comes to mind, but given the improvement this season over last, I am happy with the massive improvement. If we improve by that amount again next season, we will be a top 10 defense. I guess we will see. |
