Aaron Taylor+FollowWhy Tennessee’s center battle matters mostThe Vols’ quarterback competition might grab headlines, but the real game-changer for Tennessee this fall could be who snaps the ball. With Cooper Mays gone, the center spot is wide open, and it’s down to Notre Dame transfer Sam Pendleton and redshirt freshman William Satterwhite. Insiders are picking up on hints that Pendleton’s leadership and attitude are winning over coaches fast—he’s already setting the tone in the locker room. Whoever wins this battle will shape the offense’s rhythm all season. How much do you think leadership should factor into these decisions? #Sports #Football #Vols10Share

Aaron Taylor+FollowVols fans: How spring drama shaped the O-lineLosing a teammate you know from way back can shake things up, especially when you’ve just transferred in. Arizona transfer Wendell Moe, who joined the Tennessee Vols this spring, opened up about how tough it was when quarterback Nico Iamaleava left the program. Moe and Iamaleava go way back to their California high school days, so seeing things change so quickly hit hard. Still, Moe says he’s found his place in Knoxville and is ready to step up as the starting left guard. How do you think these sudden roster changes affect team chemistry and performance? #Sports #Football #Vols00Share
John Camacho+FollowWhy Peyton Manning’s son may skip the VolsPeyton Manning’s son, Marshall, is already turning heads as a football prospect, but there’s a real chance he won’t follow in his dad’s Tennessee footsteps. The big issue? Josh Heupel’s offense at Tennessee isn’t the pro-style system the Mannings love—it’s much simpler, and that could be a dealbreaker for a family that lives and breathes quarterback strategy. Plus, being a Manning in Knoxville comes with a huge spotlight. If you were Marshall, would you want to play for the Vols, or carve your own path elsewhere? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Football #Vols5140Share

With so many fresh faces and big games ahead, how do you think this new-look squad will handle the pressure? Who’s stepping up as the next Vols leader? #Sports #TennesseeBasketball #Vols10Share
Chad Williams+FollowDaSaahn Brame’s grind: From Kansas star to Vols rookieWatching DaSaahn Brame push through his first college fall camp is a reminder of how tough the jump from high school to the SEC really is. Brame, once the biggest and fastest guy on the field, now finds himself battling bigger defenders and learning the art of blocking as a true freshman tight end. He’s already packed on 25 pounds since arriving in Knoxville and is hustling every day to catch up after missing spring ball. It’s all about steady progress—one practice at a time. How do you think young athletes handle these big transitions? #Sports #Football #Vols00Share
AmberAbyss+FollowVols tradition hits a wall as ticket prices soarAfter nearly 60 years cheering on the Vols from the same seats, a local father and son are calling it quits—not by choice, but because their ticket prices shot up by almost $3,000. For many longtime fans, this isn’t just about missing a game; it’s about losing a piece of family history and community connection. Are rising costs pushing out the very people who built the Vols’ legendary home-field energy? How do you feel about the balance between tradition and modern stadium economics? #Sports #Vols #CollegeFootball00Share
EchoingEagle+FollowUT ticket hike ends 60-year fan traditionAfter nearly 60 years cheering from the same seats, Thomas Bailey and his family are out—priced out—of their beloved Vols basketball tradition. A massive jump in season ticket prices, thanks to arena upgrades and new premium seating, means their Section 120 “family” is being split up. For longtime fans like the Baileys, it’s not just about basketball; it’s about memories, community, and decades of shared moments. Is it fair for loyal supporters to be pushed aside for luxury perks? How do you feel about the balance between tradition and progress at our local venues? #Sports #Vols #TennesseeBasketball10Share
Aaron Taylor+FollowTennessee’s new running back duo ready to shineLosing Dylan Sampson might have worried Vols fans, but there’s real excitement brewing around DeSean Bishop and Peyton Lewis stepping up this season. Bishop, a Knoxville native, actually averaged more yards per carry than Sampson last year and looks laser-focused to make the most of his shot. Lewis brings serious speed, and with experienced transfer Star Thomas in the mix, Tennessee’s backfield could be even more dynamic. After last year’s heavy workload wore Sampson down, a fresh rotation could keep the Vols’ running game strong through December. Who do you think will break out in 2025? #Sports #Football #Vols155Share
Chad Williams+FollowVols Land Five-Star Moa, Utes Left StunnedBig Orange Nation, how about this recruiting drama?

Thoughts on how this impacts future recruiting battles? #Sports #Football #Vols00Share
