"Getting an offer from a school like Tennessee means a lot. That's big-time SEC football," Fields said. "I went to a Tennessee game last fall. I had a blast. Tennessee is a great university. It's close - only about a two-and-a-half hour drive from my house."
"Tennessee has an athletic QB now that is smart," Fields said. "He has a great arm and he can do it with his legs to extend the play if need be. This describes me as well."
Fields said it was good to learn under DeBord and Nick Sheridan while on Rocky Top. "Both are great coaches with knowledge of the position to make any QB a lot better," Fields said. "I spent a lot of time with Coach Sheridan during the camp. He's real cool."
After attending Tennessee's win over South Carolina last season, Fields plans to be back in Knoxville this fall for a game. He added, it's more than just the coaches and the fit on the field that he likes about Tennessee. "The facilities are great. The campus is beautiful. They have a passionate fan base to say the least," Fields explained.
