Dream for a while because the offseason is going to be quite long.

To get more experience, I had argued that Nico Iamaleava should have started the Vandy game, but I’ll be honest—that was completely needless. There, I was mistaken. Joe Milton gave an outstanding performance on Senior Day, and he more than earned the opportunity to do so.

It turns out that Nico did not require the additional repetitions. For a freshman, that young man is already performing at a high level. Mentality. self-assurance. Method. Qualities like as poise and pocket presence. It is not expected of you to appear that way on your debut against one of the nation’s top defences. But whatsoever, I’ll gladly accept it.

I just wanted to make that admission of guilt clear. I wanted to improve the programme, but once more, it wasn’t necessary.

2) The return of Bru McCoy certainly adds to my excitement. His return to the field would be a tremendous help to the offence, as I discussed last week. There’s no denying his blue collar/lunch pail work ethic. Hopefully, there won’t be a problem with his being ready for August as I don’t know how long it will take him to heal or locate any information about it.

3) And whoa, the Vols signed Jack VanDorselaer, a top 2025 tight end prospect from Southlake Carroll High School, a dominant programme. That will also function. Another choice that is patiently awaiting the next move in the game.

4) If only we could hear some encouraging news regarding the offensive line. As we approach the offseason, that certainly raises some concerns. Cooper Mays and John Campbell, Jr., two important veterans, will be back, but the real question will be who Tennessee starts at right tackle in the end following Gerald Mincey’s transfer. I hope that solution shows up soon.

Transfer tackle Zalance Heard is seriously considering Tennessee, it should be noted. UT is currently the most likely destination on On3 Sports’ transfer portal tracking, with a 73.8% chance. UT could definitely use his talents this autumn.

5) Gosh, did the Vol basketball team completely destroy Ole Miss at Thompson-Boling Arena on Saturday, defeating them 90–64. Even though I couldn’t stay for the entire thing, Jonas Aidoo had a wonderful performance. 10 rebounds and 24 points for the big man for the Vols. Zakai Ziegler scored 17 points and had 10 assists, demonstrating his excellent ball distribution skills.

What’s going to happen next? A week in which the Vols must avoid getting caught off guard while playing the Bulldogs from Georgia and Mississippi State on the road. I think this team is capable of performing as well as they are.

Vols, go!
