Promising freshman LB with a lot of upside. Appears he doesn’t want to backup Perkins next 2-3 years.

He would've been beside him. Very strange for him to leave, but he was a no show for the bowl. Somethings up

He would have played a lot in 2023. Something doesn’t add up here. He’s from Orlando so people are speculating he may be home sick or there was tampering and an NIL opportunity somewhere else.

Maybe UT can get him. Would be nice to add him to the LB room. He would play right away I believe at UT.

I'm hoping Mizzou tampered and he's headed north. That would make us even, for the Wingo tampering.

Rumors are something off the field is the cause. Family issues or discipline problems and likely headed back closer to home. He is from Orlando so UCF, FSU or UF something along those lines.
Wiah him well wherever he goes.

He was going to get more playing time next year alongside Perkins and backing up Perkins, hate to see him leave. Have heard academics may be an issue, as he did not travel for the bowl game, but who knows.

Hearing anything from the Tennessee side on this one? Sounds like something with his family so maybe closer to home.

That cat was born with a LBer name. Only better name would have been DaPayda Tolan

TN writers says they aren’t interested in Tolan.

I’m surprised he’s not getting more interest. Kelly seemed fairly high on him and he was expected to get a lot of PT next year.


Not sure what his issue is, but for whatever reason he didn’t travel for the bowl. Apparently he isn’t unhappy at LSU, but needs to make a move.

Leaving LSU for either Auburn or Mizzou. Sounds like this kid has to be a Tiger, come hell or high water.

Not shocking, he was very high on AU during his HS recruiting and AU was the first school he reached out to and visited when he entered the portal.

Freeze got him some hook ups from his black book.

Sealed the deal...
