No way he is worth 3.5M to OSU. We'll be fine without him. And I'm sure spending quality time with his new DC will help that home sickness ....

I assume it’s $3.5M for 3 years. Still a lot for a guy who showed promise as a freshman but not production. Bugs me that people use $ amounts without timing.

I'm with you, and I find myself correcting people about it ALL THE TIME, IRL. So many fans believe the number that is reported is only for 1yr. Those numbers are almost always for 3, 4 or 5yrs.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Here's an interesting article/take/speculation on the Chaz Coleman situation at Tennessee:
atozsports.com
Just a few months ago, it was cold outside, and the talk of the town for Ohio State football was their chase of former Penn State EDGE Chaz Coleman in the transfer portal.
Ohio State cooled off on Coleman shortly before he committed to Tennessee, where it’s been a rocky tenure with the Vols ever since. Coleman missed the majority of spring practice with Tennessee, and the latest news is that he’s yet to report for summer workouts.
There’s a solid chance Coleman never suits up for the Volunteers this fall, and a former Buckeye coach will be hurting as a result.
Jim Knowles is one of the biggest losers from the Chaz Coleman situation if it continues heading south
Tennessee paid up big dollars (or at least planned to) for Coleman to be an important part of its defense this fall. Knowles is in his first year as the defensive coordinator at Tennessee after spending last season at Penn State. Coleman followed Knowles to Tennessee, but now may never get to coach him again.
“He was in spring practice for maybe not even a week,” On3’s Chris Low said recently on Fox Sports Knoxville. “He did very little, if anything, during the offseason conditioning program and the weight program. Here we are now, what, three days [after] the players are supposed to be back, and he’s not back. I think it’s really to the point now where he’s left Josh Heupel and his staff with very little [choice]. Unless, again, there’s something else out there that comes to life. But we’re probably to the point where it’s unlikely that we see him play football at Tennessee.
“I don’t ever want to get in people’s personal business, but there are some things that this kid has dealt with. So whatever is out there, whatever those things are, he’s gotta get those things under control. But he doesn’t have a lot of options. I know some people say, ‘Well, he wants to go to Ohio State.’ Well, there is no spring portal. You can’t transfer and play next year.”
It’s a wait and see situation with Chaz Coleman
It sure sounds like Tennessee could soon be cutting ties if something doesn’t change, and that’s tough for Knowles in his first season. The Vols watched EDGE Jordan Ross enter the portal and sign with LSU. Coleman is expected to step in and be an impact player for Tennessee, but now there’s major caution on it happening.
