Welcome into the Diamond Falls podcast on GoVals.com.

I am Ben McKee, and I am joined by Will Hefflin on this edition of the podcast,

for Tennessee baseball.

Before we get started, I do need to do something, Heflin.

I need you to lean into your

microphone real quick. I need you to make sure that you hear this loud and clear, okay? Listen to this.

All right. Is that a cold beer? It's a cold one. And now I am good to go as you show me up and take a sip of water.

So I appreciate that kind of, it's going to be that kind of show today. That could be tequila for all you know.

It could be tequila. For your sake, I hope it is tequila to get through this podcast. I know it's the day after Easter, which I hope everybody had a very merry and happy Easter.

I know it's the day after Easter.

I know it's a Monday night, but do not judge me for drinking a cold one as we record this podcast.

Because what a Monday it was for Tennessee basketball and the transfer portal.

As we press record here, of course, Jalen Carey elects to announce that he is entering the portal.

So that is four players, I believe, today that have entered the portal between Clarence Masamba,

J.P. Estrella, Bishop Boswell, and Jalen Carey. And then when you add in Kate Phillips,

who announced on Friday, that's five Tennessee basketball players in the portal so far.

The Lady Valls do not have a single player on its roster at the moment. I guess they do have a

high school signee, but they had eight possible returning players for next season.

And Kim Caldwell's third year, none of them will return.

So it was quite the busy day for portal news.

And then, oh, Tensey Baseball did not have a good weekend.

Should have swept LSU.
