After completing the first day of two-a-day practice yesterday, Tennessee was back to a regular practice today. Here a few updates courtesy of SportsTalk. More to come later. The ‘Nu-Gun’ debuted Monday and was in full force again today. Nu’Keese Richardson reportedly took about five to ten snaps at quarterback. The coaches are still moving…

Freshman tailbacks Bryce Brown and David Oku have taken the Tennessee campus by storm. Brown was rated the No. 1 player in the country coming out of high school and Oku was considered the No 1. all-purpose back. The fact that they both ended up at Tennessee, means both are confident in their abilities and…

Tennessee was back hard at work on Monday after taking the day off on Sunday for media day. By all accounts, practices have very physically demanding to this point and yesterday, that demand doubled. Monday marked the beginning of the dreaded two-a-day practices on campus. Montori Hughes is impressive. At 6-4, 310 pounds, Hughes isn’t…

Based on the first scrimmage of fall practice, Lane Kiffin has to be pleased with his offense, especially the running game.

Jesse Scroggins, the anointed savior of the college quarterback position is slated to choose the program he intends to lead to a Sears Trophy. Most consider him to be a USC lock, while few of the Vol faithful continue to hope that Knoxville is…

Chase Rettig’s commitment to BC has set off a minor explosion in the Vol community. It wouldn’t be so bad for most folks if it didn’t look like Jesse Scroggins was headed to USC, or if Jake Heaps wasn’t already committed to BYU. Andrew Hendrix and Tommy Rees offered the Vol fans a double dose…

Long suffering Volunteer fans have long known the drill. For the last few off-seasons we have gone to message boards to talk up our recruiting class, discuss the heat of an afternoon September kickoff, and wonder if the first play from scrimmage would be off tackle right or off tackle left. It is no wonder…
