More from Jones.

“We spoke prior to spring break that I thought the maturity of our football team would show coming back,” said Jones. “Overall I did like our mental approach but also it was very glaring that some individuals are more mature than others. Some individuals prepared more than individuals coming back but I thought it was a very productive practice and probably our most physical practice so far since we’ve been back.”

“I was not pleased with the first five practices especially the scrimmage in terms of our overall style of play in which we’re going to play football here at Tennessee but every opportunity is a teaching moment,” he said. “Today had many teaching moments. We concluded practice with a live team period and then we graded our position groups on the field if we had loafs and not playing our style.”

“Work in progress. We have to get much faster as a defense and as a football program. We are not up to SEC speed. So it starts with recruiting, it starts with being bigger, stronger, faster. You have to play chess, you can’t play checkers, you to play chess. It is getting your players in the right spots and if they have value in one regard or another it is trying to extract as much value as you can in your football program.”

“I did. I sat in on all the quarterback meetings today. I liked their note taking, I checked all their notes, I liked that process. We are going to be patient, we are going to find out who we can win with. It is a long process, with spring football, summer and then into August and we are going to do our due diligence every day. But I did like the mentality of that group today and I liked their approach on Monday as well.”

*Tennessee should have significantly more speed on kick coverage this year. Speedsters Emmanuel Moseley and D’Andre Payne worked with what looked like the No. 1 kick coverage team. Cam Sutton, Malik Foreman, Geraldo Orta, Lemond Johnson, A.J. Johnson, Jalen Reeves-Maybin, and Devaun Swafford saw time with the presumed first team as well.

Thanks for the rundown! Trying to find some picks of those checkerboard decals on those select helmets. Speed flex looks pretty neat.

I know that pose. I think he's preparing for the Hurdsmen trophy! And look at his glove. How cool is it going to be this year when he is stiff arming other teams players and all they get to see is an Orange Power T in their face. Priceless

I know everyone (including me) is crazy about Hurd. But you have to love the intensity of Devrin Young. Hometown kid. I really wish him well this year.
