Yes, Doug Dickey coached Tennessee against Florida after accepting the Florida job. Gator Bowl I think

I didnt know he accepted that job before the Gator Bowl. I know everyone though he was, but I am talking about a coach formally leaving his team and accepting a job as head coach for the team his old team was playing in the bowl game. I probably sound like I am all over the place with that lol.

You could be right, but I thought he had formally accepted before the bowl.

Quarterbacks Look Crisp in Limited Viewing

Tennessee's quarterbacks mostly worked underneath on shorter throws on Saturday morning, but they did look crisp. They worked different routes with the running backs out of the backfield early on as well. Joe Milton spent time coaching Nico Iamaleava up after each session, as the two seem to be hitting it off well. As expected, Iamaleava's off is live and certainly looks like he has the zip and touch to make all of the throws Tennessee will want him to make.

Wide Receiver Rotation as Expected

Tennessee will be without its top two options at receiver in the Orange Bowl with Jalin Hyatt and Cedric Tillman both opting out. Today, we saw Bru McCoy, Ramel Keyton and Squirrel White first though the line as expected. Keep in mind, the Vols will certainly need younger guys to step in behind those guys, as Jimmy Calloway and Jimmy Holiday both entered the transfer portal earlier this month.

First Look at Early Enrollees

Multiple Tennessee early enrollees rolled into campus over the past couple of days, we complied a list at the end of the article, but they all looked the part today from a physical standpoint and are what you would expect a top-ten program to bring in. However, they are clearly going to look like guys that are just starting their careers as they adjust to the pace and feel of practices and learn new drills. This is just a nice early time for growth. Sham Umarov had a couple of nice reps with his feet working with the offensive line. Did not have a chance to see all of the defensive guys.

They allow 4.66 yards per passing attempt. Dear lord.

Idk what the FCS rankings are, but that stat would be #1 in FBS by almost a yard per attempt.

Gotta give the guy credit. He's recruited and coached well to this point. Colorado is a whole different beast, but I could see him getting them to Utah-level after a few (possibly ugly) years.

Think of how CLOSE we were to getting Mauigoa...and even Tate. The kinds we'll land in 2024 now that we've proven ourselves and have legit multi-year relationships. Throw them into this class and take out 2 of our lower guys and we'd be #4, with a 92.3 average 👀

This is the coming future. A new tier of talent.
