Tennessee football: 5 players Vols should target in NCAA transfer portal
Tennessee football should target Trevon Sidney because of their connection to him with Tee Martin and the need for depth at wide receiver. However, they should target Josh Imatorbhebhe because of their immediate need at wideout coming up.
As we said, the Vols are likely to lose three of four wideouts after this year. Only Josh Palmer is returning as a playmaker, and he’ll be a senior in 2020. So they need a wideout desperately who could play for two years after sitting out in 2019, and Josh Imatorbhebhe is that guy.
Another four-star from the 2016 recruiting class, Imatorbhebhe committed to Tee Martin as well. At 6’2″ 215 pounds, he brings great size to the position, and although he’s only appeared in two games for his college career, you have to think there is some potential. A guy like Jim Chaney would be able to tap into it.
Then there’s the biggest advantage the Vols have here. Imatorbhebhe not only committed to Tee Martin, but he’s from Suwanee, Ga., which is very close to Knoxville. So the Vols have a great chance to lure him back if they want him, especially given their pipeline into that state. They should go after him hard. He would immediately fill a need for the program in 2020.
