A trio of Tennessee baseball pitchers entered the transfer portal on Wednesday afternoon. Junior reliever Andrew Behnke, junior relief Austin Breedlove and freshman Beau Revord are officially in the portal as the Vols’ turnover on the mound continues.
Behnke spent three seasons at Tennessee, posting a 5-1 record and 3.52 ERA in 46 innings pitched in his career. The left-handed pitcher was a fringe bullpen arm during the Vols’ run to the 2024 national championship.
The Nashville native posted a 3-1 record and 3.54 ERA in 28 innings pitched. Behnke pitched four times in the NCAA Tournament and twice in the College World Series, combining to record six outs while allowing two earned runs. The expectation was for Behnke to step into a bigger role in his junior season but it didn’t come to fruition.
Behnke posted a 5.11 ERA in 12.1 innings pitched during the 2025 season. He recorded just six outs during SEC play in his junior season, electing to go elsewhere for his final college season.

Revord didn’t pitch in his freshman season at Tennessee, redshirting before entering the portal at the end of the season.
