This program appears to be an amazing opportunity for the student athletes.
It is a bit of a shame such a program may not available for all the immensely talented students who don't have top 1% athletic ability.
Make this sort of program available to a broader spectrum of students and Tennessee would have an incredible opportunity to reshape public perception of it's place in public higher education.
Kudos to the athletic department for this investment in both the present and the future of their student-athletes.
