Memphis has shown it gets players into the NFL and Gray would be an absolute beast at Memphis.

Apparently he's well-thought-of:-).

So I wonder how long this is going to draw out. He would complete the offense if we have who we think we have.

Likely not but it’s 3 sons and it’s a story about the mess that is UT and about a disillusioned hardcore UT Alum.

For a non-UTK fan, and not much of a Greg & Eli fan, who are we talking about - Daddy Hayden?

I don't think you are crazy because I understand the concerns. Having said that we don't know all of the details. If he gets approved to play he is a one year guy and then off to the NFL. If he is not approved he will simply work out for a year and hit the combine. There is some risk I suppose but my gut says take him if he is willing to come in with no pay!!

I see both of your points but to me anyone who took a McD sack of cash should be ineligible for a year. Pretty sure "the kids" attend a seminar or two on this their freshman year.

Can't be long with spring semester started or starting soon at most potential destinations. Would be crazy for these transfers not to land quickly and be in the system for whatever spring practice there may be.

Aron Hayden. Played at UT. One son is at ECU I believe. One a rising Senior named Dallen and one younger. Dallen is a 4 star 5'11 195 class of 2022. MaxPrep Player of the year. Hasn't committed but CB is 100% UT Vols unless things get really bad on the hill.

I have never seen Gray play. So, I went to YouTube and this GATOR BOWL highlight video is pretty awesome. He was a game changer.

Gray is visiting Austin, Texas this weekend.

He not staying home!

UTK uses McD bags.
The real UT, uses Hefty's.

I can’t imagine him going to Texas. They have the #1 running back in the country, (from 2019), on the team right now. He only played in the last four games but averaged almost 150 yards game on very few carries.

he does not look like he is as good as the 4 running backs we just lost to the nfl- he does look better than anyone I saw run the ball for the Tigers this past year

Eric Gray down to two schools -Oklahoma and Texas.

Eric Gray has committed to Oklahoma, well atleast he didn't go to Texas

Good fit and OK needs help at RB. He will do well.
