Tennessee basketball fans haven’t had much luck with good news this offseason. Rick Barnes was going to head to UCLA to take their head coaching job. Grant Williams and Jordan Bone both announced they were keeping their names in the NBA Draft.
Former players succeeding in the draft isn’t bad news. However, it means they aren’t coming back to school, which hurts the Vols.
Tennessee missed out on a couple of recruits, one being guard Jalen Cone who reclassified to the 2019 class and signed with Virginia Tech.
But, the Kerry Blackshear news has been rather good for Vol nation.
