Aaron Taylor+FollowVols’ Sampson Snubbed by Heisman Voters?Can you believe Dylan Sampson didn’t even crack the top 10 in Heisman voting last year? The Louisiana Lightning set a new Tennessee record for rushing yards and TDs, plus snagged SEC Offensive Player of the Year—yet not a single SEC player made it to New York. Even Greg McElroy, a Bama guy, says Sampson deserved a spot. Is it time to rethink how Heisman finalists are picked? Let’s hear your takes, Vol Nation! #Vols #HeismanSnub #DylanSampson #Sports00Share
Jay Williams+FollowVols Turning Up Heat on FSU’s 4-Star CommitLooks like the Vols are making serious moves to flip Kaneilius Purdy, FSU’s prized 2027 four-star commit. Purdy says he’s still open and chatting weekly with Tennessee’s OC Joey Halzle. The Vols told him straight up they’re aiming to make him decommit from the Noles! With Purdy’s versatility and high ranking, this could be a recruiting battle to watch. Can Rocky Top really steal a ‘Nole’s dream? #Vols #FSU #RecruitingBattle #Sports00Share
Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowVols Lose Bacon: SEC Rivals CircleTough news for Big Orange Nation—Tyson "TBJ" Bacon, the prized 2026 D-line commit, just reopened his recruitment. Bacon’s decommitment stings, especially with SEC heavyweights like Bama and Georgia already lining up visits. While his move isn’t a total shock (he’s been shopping around), it’s a momentum shift as Coach Heupel tries to build a championship squad. How big of a blow is this for the Vols’ future D-line? Let’s hear your takes! #Vols #Recruiting #SEC #TysonBacon #CollegeFootball #Sports30Share
phughes+FollowVols Miss Out on Watson to TexasTough break for the Vols! After dominating the spring transfer portal buzz, Big Orange fans were hoping to land freshman All-American Maraad Watson from Syracuse, but he’s heading to Texas instead. The good news? At least Watson won’t be suiting up for Georgia, so Tennessee avoids facing him in their SEC opener. With Joey Aguilar expected to join the QB room, there’s still hope for the roster, but losing out on Watson stings. Thoughts on how this shapes the 2025 season? #Vols #TransferPortal #CollegeFootball #SEC #HookEm #Sports00Share
