The Tennessee Volunteers have enjoyed plenty of offensive success through eight games this football season.
Sophomore quarterback Harrison Bailey hasn’t been a part of it, so he will be seeking another collegiate location. The 6-foot-5, 220-pounder from Marietta, Georgia, announced Wednesday afternoon via Twitter that he has entered the NCAA transfer portal.
The Vols fell to 4-4 overall and 2-3 in Southeastern Conference play with Saturday’s 52-24 loss at Alabama and have their lone open date of the season this weekend.
“Thank you for allowing me to pursue my athletic career here at this prestigious university,” Bailey posted on Twitter. “I would like to thank everyone that has helped me develop into the person I am today on and off the field. To my brothers – I love you guys. We made a lifetime of memories over the last few years. Thank you for always supporting me through thick and thin.
“It’s with a heavy heart that I would like to announce that I will be entering my name into the transfer portal and exploring other opportunities.”
