Tennessee Volunteers quarterback Nico Iamaleava reportedly surprised his coaches and teammates on Friday when he did not attend practice the day before the team's spring football game. Iamaleava opted not to go to practice amid ongoing contract negotiations with the team. Though Iamaleava was making $2.4 million this year, he was reportedly seeking a deal worth $4 million, per ESPN.
The Volunteers did not budge, and head coach Josh Heupel announced on Saturday that the team is moving on from Iamaleava, who will enter the spring transfer portal.
