Orr joined the Volunteers as a preferred walk-on ahead of the 2019 season. That year, he played in 3 games. He primarily saw time on special teams in 202o.
“My time at Tennessee has come to an end (and) I will miss taking the field with my brothers,” he wrote on Thursday. “No one can take the bond we created away from us…With that being said I will be entering the transfer portal with 3 years of eligibility left!!”
Who??
I liked what I saw when he was in. Just never made it into the top 2 and with the guys we have coming in, I don’t blame him from trying to get playing time somewhere else. Good luck to you young man.
Did he get a scholarship, or is he still a walk on? I really don’t know what the rule is for walk ons. I assumed that if you don’t have a scholarship, you can transfer at any time.
