Vols Quarterback Nico Iamaleava Does Not Show For Practice Friday

The Tennessee Vols close out spring drills with the Orange and White game Saturday, but who knows if quarterback Nico Iamaleava will participate.
He was a no-show at practice on Friday according to 24-7 Sports.

This comes following reports on Thursday that Nico wants a new NIL deal.

He makes $2-million a year, and now he reportedly wants to get a deal around 4-million-bucks.

The portal opens April 16th.

If Nico were to hit the portal, he would not be able to go to another SEC school.

League rules prohibit players who jump in the spring portal from going to another SEC school and gaining immediate eligibility.
