It is impossible to predict roster outcomes as 2020 set in motion a number of unforeseen variables (including the season not counting towards anyone's eligibility), but, this is our best guess at what rosters could look like in future years. Please treat it as a guide for possibilities and not as the final word.
Some assumptions and notes:
- Players who were on the roster at some point in 2020 will stay around for five years unless we know otherwise. It is possible some will stay less and some may even stay six years, but for consistency's sake we will assume five for everyone. (This eliminates players like Jamauri Wakefield and grad transfers who never played like Stephen Spanellis and Oren Milstein.)
- We assume players who hit the transfer portal won't return and therefore we have left them off this list. That said, there's nothing in the rules barring any from returning to Vanderbilt. This includes Grant Miller, Randall Haynie, etc.
- Dayo Odeyingbo and Andre Mintze have declared for the draft, so we consider them gone.
- This includes players who left the team mid-year and aren't in the transfer portal that we know. Many are certainly not likely to return but the goal here is not to rule anything out unless a player has hit the portal. For instance: Players like Danny Clark left the team mid-season but as far as we know, hasn't transferred elsewhere or entered the transfer portal.
- A large number of players left the team at some point and were not on the field--dressed or otherwise--for the Tennessee game, but were still listed on the official roster. Such players are noted with an asterisk (*). Some will likely return while others probably won't.
- Players who have signed but aren't yet on campus are listed in parenthesis.
- Players who have verbally committed but haven't signed are listed in brackets.
