Could Tennessee Simply Move From One Zeigler To The Next?

Zakai Zeigler’s younger brother is entering the transfer portal.

According to On3, Saint Peter’s guard Armoni Zeigler will be looking for a new school.

Zeigler has two years of eligibility remaining.

While the younger Zeigler may not quite be the nationally-recognized star that his older brother is, he’s still quite capable at the mid-major level.

Armoni averaged 11.1 points per game as a sophomore in addition to 6.1 rebounds per game.

He’s taller than his older brother, standing 6-foot-4, and played in all of Saint Peter’s games this season.

Could Tennessee be in the mix to land him? At this point, that is unclear, but Rick Barnes does certainly seem to love this family.

The Vols have a lot to replace after this season with Zakai, Jahmai Mashack, Chaz Lanier, and Jordan Gainey all graduating.

There should be room for some talented young guards.
