Rick Barnes and the Tennessee Vols just earned another big off-the-court win
It’s been a tremendous offseason for Rick Barnes and the Tennessee Volunteers basketball program.
It’s been a heck of an offseason for Rick Barnes and the Tennessee Vols.
And it got even better on Thursday.
According to multiple reports, VCU transfer forward Christian Fermin has committed to the Volunteers.
Fermin, 6-foot-10/225 pounds from Tobyhanna, PA, spent the last four seasons at VCU.
The Vols have been looking for another big man to add to the roster to serve as depth.
Fermin played in just four games last season while dealing with some stuff away from the court and averaged just 0.8 points per game.
For his career, though, Fermin has averaged 4.0 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game.
Fermin is the eighth transfer addition for the Vols this offseason. Tennessee also added four high school signees to pair with returning players DeWayne Brown and Troy Henderson.
