In Rick Barnes’ post-season press conference on Thursday, he dropped a couple of pretty big notes. Tennessee has already seen two bottom-roster players hit the transfer portal, and Barnes expects one more to go.
Barnes said that shooting guard Quentin Diboundje will likely follow Mike Schwartz to East Carolina, which would give the Volunteers three openings to fill on the roster.
Diboundje signed with Tennessee last season as a developmental prospect and played sparingly as a freshman. With Zakai Zeigler, Justin Powell, BJ Edwards and Jahmai Mashack each slated ahead of him on on the roster, it makes sense for him to head elsewhere for more opportunities.
