Tennessee Football Gets Good News on Receiver
While much of the transfer portal buzz surrounds quarterbacks, the Tennessee Volunteers are quietly reinforcing their wide receiver room, and they just got some encouraging news. With only seven scholarship wideouts currently on the roster, Tennessee is actively exploring options, and one standout name is San Jose State’s Treyshun Hurry.
Hurry, a 6-foot-2, 194-pound receiver from California, played his 2023 season with the Spartans, recording 28 catches for 482 yards and two touchdowns, per On3. Before that, he spent time at Weber State, where he had a productive stint with 29 receptions for 384 yards and a touchdown in 2023.
Known for his size, speed, and ability to create separation downfield, Hurry has emerged as a hot name in the portal. He’s received offers from Florida State, BYU, Louisville, Miami, Baylor, and now Tennessee.
For the Vols, this interest couldn’t come at a better time. With top playmakers from last season gone, Tennessee needs reliable targets for their offense to stay explosive. Hosting Hurry is a clear sign they’re serious about replenishing depth. The fact that he started 12 of 13 games last year and totaled over 850 yards and 57 catches in the last two seasons shows he can make an immediate impact.
Adding Hurry would not just boost Tennessee’s receiving corps but also bring veteran experience to the table. With two years of eligibility remaining, he’s not just a short-term fix. He could be a crucial weapon in the SEC grind.
As Tennessee evaluates other portal names like BYU’s Keelan Marion and continues visits from defensive linemen this week, the buzz around Hurry offers optimism. The Vols may just be one step closer to rounding out a balanced and competitive roster for 2024.
