The Tennessee Vols are expected to be active in the NCAA transfer portal this month and they're not just looking at defensive backs and wide receivers.
Tennessee is looking to improve across the board — and that includes in the trenches.
Winning in the SEC starts in the trenches and that's why the Vols offered Arizona defensive tackle Kyon Barrs this week.
Barrs is a former three-star recruit from California. He's spent the last four years at Arizona.
In 2021, Barrs totaled five sacks and eight tackles for loss. This past season, Barrs accumulated 39 total tackles and 4.5 tackles for loss.
Barrs' production was down in 2022, but he flashed what he can do in 2021.
Tennessee has one of the best defensive line coaches in the nation in Rodney Garner. If Barrs transfers to UT, I could see him becoming an instant factor for the Volunteers thanks to the combination of his talent and the presence of Garner.
