Luke Winn of SI.com has a good piece about Tyler Smith, who transferred from Iowa to Tennessee to be closer to his father, who has lung cancer, and Winn says the addition of a player with Smith's talents has expectations in Tennessee really, really high:What Smith will do is turn the Volunteers into legitimate national-title contenders -- and that means he is of paramount importance....We had the Vols seventh in our Premature BlogPoll, so they're certainly in the Final Four mix. The addition of Smith might be the last piece of the puzzle.
That added dimension could very well be the key to the Vols reaching the Final Four in Pearl's third season.
