Transfer portal madness has come and gone in the college basketball world, and after all the dust settled, Tennessee has all the makings of a top ten team once again. The Volunteers were hit hard in the portal to start, losing Jonas Aidoo and Tobe Awaka. Reserves Freddie Dilione and DJ Jefferson also left the program, while Josiah-Jordan James, Dalton Knecht and Santiago Vescovi saw their eligibility expire.
With plenty of minutes and roster spots open, Rick Barnes and his staff hit the ground running. They quickly added length and shooting, picking up Darlinstone Dubar and Igor Milicic.
