Tennessee is in the market for immediate help at quarterback. That much was proven to be true last week as they showed interest in Alex Thompson, a graduate-tranfer from Wagner.
Jarrett Guarantano, Will McBride and JT Shrout (2018 early-enrollee) are the only quarterbacks on scholarship currently. Neither Guarantano or McBride showed much in their time last year, but a new offense and new coaching could change that.
For now, it sounds like Pruitt and Helton would love to add another passer into the mix. Another name to keep in mind here is Keller Chryst, who announced his intentions to transfer today.
