Vols’ redshirt sophomore linebacker enters transfer portal

Tennessee redshirt sophomore linebacker enters the transfer portal.

Redshirt sophomore linebacker Eunique Valentine has entered the NCAA transfer portal.

The 6-foot-3, 205-pound linebacker announced his decision Saturday.

“I want to thank coach Heup (Josh Heupel) and the Tennessee coaching staff for coaching me to be the best student-athlete I can be,” Valentine announced. “I am very thankful for the outpouring love from the family and the opportunity I was granted.

“With that being said, I am now in the transfer portal with fours years of eligibility left.”

Valentine appeared in one game for the Vols in 2021. He played against Tennessee Tech.

Valentine came to Tennessee from Central High School in Knoxville, Tennessee.
