Quarterback Joey Aguilar is signing with Tennessee after Tennessee's former quarterback transferred to UCLA, effectively taking Aguilar's starting spot. The swap is the latest twist in a saga involving Nico Iamaleava, the University of Tennessee, and the implications of Name, Image, and Likeness.

Aguilar transferred to UCLA from App. State in January, after spending two years in Boone, NC. Now, four months later, Aguilar is transferring once again. Aguilar's journey took him from the Appalachian Mountains to the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains and then to the Great Smoky Mountains.

Aguilar's Orange Parallel /25 sold for $150, perhaps with a premium paid considering his new school colours. In the coming months, Aguilar's next cards in a Tennessee uniform will surely be an even bigger hit, especially if he helps lead the Vols to the College Football Playoffs after a chaotic off-season.
