Nico Iamaleava regret? Insider thinks it's coming for Tennessee football

With Josh Heupel getting closer to announcing who his starting quarterback will be for the Tennessee football team this season, Nico Iamaleava is preparing for Year 1 in the Big Ten. Nico is gone, shockingly leaving Knoxville during spring ball.

Rumors started swirling that Iamaleava and his camp were looking for a new NIL deal, while the quarterback said this move was all about playing closer to home. Regardless of why he left, CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz has spoken to multiple sources and the feeling he's getting from some is that the Vols will regret letting him walk.
