Finally, we’re going to see Cade Mays put on the orange and white. On Wednesday, just as Jeremy Pruitt’s Wednesday wrapped up, the SEC announced that several transfers had been cleared to play, headlined by Mays.
The former Georgia Bulldog transferred to Tennessee following the 2019 season, returning home to play with his little brother Cooper, who was a part of the Vols’ 2020 recruiting class.
Mays’ request for immediate eligibility was initially denied by the NCAA, but was then approved upon appeal. The SEC was the final hurdle to clear.
During Wednesday night’s Vol Calls, Jeremy Pruitt got his first chance to react to the news.
