About this episode
Eric Cain discusses the stability of Tennessee quarterback commit Derrick Baker amidst interest from rival programs and examines the team's prospects for the upcoming season.
Is there a chance Tennessee football quarterback commit Derek Baker flips? Doubtful. All signs point to his future remaining firmly in Knoxville. Eric Cain addresses Georgia’s interest in Baker, Georgia’s commitment to Colton Nussmeier, and why Josh Heupel’s staff looks set at QB. Can Baker’s senior year elevate his stock further—but keep rival programs at bay? SEC football power rankings heat up as Eric Cain examines Chris Low’s On3 standings, with the Vols sitting at No. 8. The show spotlights key prospects like Kesean Bowman and Malik Howard, while VFL Chris Brazzell makes headlines at Carolina Panthers minicamp, challenging the myth that Heupel-coached receivers can’t thrive in the NFL.
