Georgia Bulldog offensive lineman Cade Mays is transferring to Tennessee in a surprising move this week, according a report Wednesday by ESPN. Mays is joining his brother Cooper in Knoxville. Mays has a path to immediate eligibility thanks to a lawsuit that’s suing UGA and the chair manufacturer over his father’s severed finger.
Mays should be allowed to join his brother without sitting out a season, but this lawsuit is being filed very late in the process. Mays’ father severed off a portion of his finger on a fold-up chair on a recruiting visit in 2017.
