Great pickup. He's physically impressive as hell and played well in his action as a true freshman. I was hoping he'd stay, I think he may have been able to take the RT tackle starting job in '24, and was a shoe-in for more time backing up the tackles and starting at guard. But, we didn't offer him the $ he wanted, so.....
I think he'll be great wherever he plays. He may have a bit of a learning curve at LT, but he's still so gifted I think he'll be fine there as well pretty quickly. The only reason he hadn't already taken one of the tackle spots at LSU was because he's got a year less experience than the two talented tackles already there. He may have technically been a backup, but he's not "backup quality," if you know what I mean. He's an SEC starter. Again, great pickup for Tennessee.
