Youth Abundant in 2011 UT Football Roster A Position-byPosition Glance at the Vols QUARTERBACK
>> Lettermen Returning (2): Tyler Bray Matt Simms
So. Sr.
Backing up Bray will be senior Matt Simms, who started Tennessee’s first eight games last year. Known for his toughness and leadership qualities, Simms threw for 1,460 yards and eight touchdowns during his first season in Knoxville in 2010. Other quarterbacks on the roster include freshman mid-term enrollee and 2010 Gatorade National Player of the Year Justin Worley, redshirt freshman Nash Nance, and sophomore Doak Raulston.
TAILBACK 1L 1L
>> Lettermen Lost (0) Tyler Bray enters the 2011 season as the starter at quarterback after the Vols won four of his five starts, including wins in all four of his November starts and overtime loss in the Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl. Bray, a 6-6, 210-pound quarterback, completed 125 of 224 passes for 1,849 yards, 18 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, all of which set Volunteer freshman records. Bray ranked third among all Division I freshman passers in quarterback rating at 142.73 and earned SEC Freshman of the Week honors for three of his four November starts. He also tied the UT bowl record with four touchdown passes against North Carolina, and became the first Vol quarterback since Peyton Manning to throw for more than 300 yards in as many as four games. Bray also set UT records for one half with 308 yards passing and five touchdowns.

Senior Tauren Poole anchors the ground game for the Vols in 2011, returning for his final season after earning All-SEC Honorable Mention honors from the AP while rushing for 1,034 yards on 204 carries in 2010. The 5-foot-10, 210-pound Poole recorded six 100-yard games, tying Heisman Trophy winner Cam Newton for the most in the conference last year, while averaging 5.1 yards per carry and collected 11 touchdowns. Poole, who will serve as the Vols’ only senior starter on offense, also caught 22 passes for 171 yards and one touchdown and started all 13 games at tailback. His rushing yardage total marked the 16th campaign in school history of more than 1,000 yards, and he ranked eighth in the SEC at 79.5 rushing yards per game. >>> continued on page 48
OUTLOOK JUSTIN HUNTER
>>> continued from page 46
The lone returning team captain on the 2011 squad with the graduation of Nick Reveiz and Luke Stocker, Poole has played in 38 career games and owns 1,205 career rushing yards and led the team with 12 total touchdowns last season. Behind Poole will be 5-11, 205-pound sophomore Rajion Neal, who produced big plays as a runner and receiver in his freshman year with the Vols. Neal rushed for 197 yards as a freshman, but his explosiveness led to a 58-yard reception at Georgia that set up a Tennessee touchdown as well as a 40yard run in his first college game vs. UT Martin. Neal is currently listed as the Vols’ backup in the depth chart. Two incoming freshmen from the state of Florida, Marlin Lane, Jr. from Daytona Beach and Tom Smith from Apopka, could also see time at running back for the Vols. Lane rushed for 13.4 yards per carry and 601 yards in only five games as a senior, while Smith rushed for 1,253 yards and 17 touchdowns as a senior. Others listed at the tailback position include three redshirt freshmen: Dorian Cozart, Deanthoine Summerhill and Jaron Toney, and a redshirt sophomore in Toney Williams.

>> Lettermen Lost (1): Kevin Cooper
Blocking from the fullback position is critical to a strong running game, and the Vols received a boost down the stretch from 6-foot-1, 245-pound Channing Fugate last fall. As a true freshman, Fugate played in all 13 games, including starts in the last five games of the season. Fugate returns for his sophomore season and is listed as the starter at fullback, one of eight sophomores currently listed as an offensive starter. In addition to his contributions as a blocker, he caught two passes for 21 yards, including a 17-yard reception in the win over Kentucky. Redshirt junior Ben Bartholomew is listed as the backup to Fugate at fullback, although Bartholomew will also spend time at tight end. Redshirt freshman Austin Bolen is also on the roster at fullback. 48

Few programs can lose two senior wide receivers and still have cause for optimism in the following season’s passing game, but Tennessee is in that position heading into 2011 thanks to the returning players at the position. The Vols lost Denarius Moore and Gerald Jones from last year’s squad – two starters, two seniors, and the two best-performing receivers. Moore totaled 981 yards and caught nine touchdowns, while Jones caught four touchdowns and collected 596 yards in establishing himself as a consistently reliable option in thirddown situations. Sophomores Justin Hunter and Da’Rick Rogers made an immediate impact as true freshmen in 2010 and are slated to start at the two receiver positions this fall. Hunter was a true vertical threat in the passing game, as he set a Tennessee freshman record with seven touchdown passes and led the squad with 25.9 yards per reception. Rogers was a versatile player for the Vols a year ago, catching 11 passes for 167 yards and also rushing 16 times for 117 yards. He scored two touchdowns last season, including a 45-yard strike to give Tennessee the lead in the second quarter against North Carolina. Junior Zach Rogers, sophomore Matt Milton and incoming freshman Vincent Dallas will all see action at receiver. Zach Rogers is a veteran with the Vols and had a solid season in 2010 with 14 catches for 207 yards, including a 72-yard touchdown vs. UAB that marked the longest scoring play for the Vols since the 2006 season. Milton appeared in four games in 2010, while Dallas is an early enrollee who impressed in spring practice. DeAnthony Arnett is another incoming freshman who will figure in the mix at receiver. As a senior, he caught 42 passes for 782 yards and eight touchdowns and was in the Class of 2011 Sporting News Top 100 at No. 24. Others on the roster include letterman in redshirt junior Cory Eichholtz, redshirt freshmen Jacob Carter and Dylan West, sophomore Tyler Drummer, and redshirt junior Cory Cates.

Last season, the Vols received 31 starts from freshmen on the offensive line, including 26 from true freshmen. As the year progressed and the linemen gained more experience, the Tennessee offensive line continued to improve, particularly as the right combinations were established and players settled into their roles. By season’s end, Poole had more than 1,000 yards rushing, and the linemen began what could be a long-lasting relationship with their fellow freshman at quarterback. This season, coming out of spring camp, it appears the Vols will rely on four sophomores and one junior to anchor the line. The lineup could be adjusted before the season opener depending on fall camp. Here’s a position-by-position outlook on the 2011 Tennessee offensive line:

2010 REVIEW
>> Lettermen Returning (6):
this fall had yet to record a start. The potential lineup of Thomas and James at tackle, Stone at center, Fulton at right guard, and either Jackson or Schofield at left guard, has a combined 44 starts among them. Junior Carson Anderson and redshirt freshman Jacob Gilliam will serve as backups, with redshirt freshman Marques Pair and redshirt sophomore Chase Phillips also on the roster. In addition to Miami, Fla., native Jackson, there are several true freshmen who could receive an opportunity on the offensive line, including Bristol native Mack Crowder, Kyler Kerbyson from Knoxville, Alan Posey from Athens, Ga., and Nashville’s Antonio Richardson.
THE VOLS
OFFENSIVE LINE
Center: James Stone settled into the position as the season progressed last year and heads the depth chart at the position heading into his sophomore campaign. Stone earned Freshman All-America honors by the Football Writers Association of America and The Sporting News. A native of Nashville, Stone started five games at center after starting three earlier in the season at left guard. Alex Bullard, a transfer from Notre Dame, figures in the mix at center as well as the other offensive line positions after an impressive spring effort that culminated with recognition as the Harvey Robinson Award recipient, awarded each spring to the offensive surprise of the spring. Guard: Sophomore Zach Fulton is listed as the starter at right guard after starting five games at the position in 2010 as a true freshman. The left guard slot features a battle between redshirt sophomore JerQuari Schofield and true freshman Marcus Jackson. Schofield started five games last season, while Jackson was an early enrollee who impressed during spring practice. Junior Darin Gooch saw action last season at center and is listed as the backup at right guard. Tackle: The Vols return two tackles who each started all 13 games a year ago, a sharp contrast from the situation entering 2010. Junior left tackle Dallas Thomas and sophomore right tackle Ja’Wuan James bookended the offensive line a year ago and played a major role in Tauren Poole’s six 100-yard games. In 2011, Thomas will protect the quarterback’s blind side with 26 games of playing experience, while James has started every game of his collegiate career and earned Freshman All-SEC honors in 2010. Entering 2010, the current projected starters for

Replacing four-year letterman and Tampa Bay Buccaneers fourth-round pick Luke Stocker’s production and leadership is a key question for the Vols in 2011. Stocker caught 39 passes for 417 yards during his senior season. Coming out of spring practice, junior Mychal Rivera is listed as the starter, and the 6-foot-3, 254-pound Rivera finished 2010 with 11 receptions for 112 yards, including three catches for 29 yards in the win over Memphis. Redshirt junior Ben Bartholomew also will be a factor at the position after redshirting in 2010. A talented group of freshmen are on the horizon for the Vols, including early enrollee Brendan Downs, who participated in spring practice. Memphis native Cameron Clear, a 6-6, 265-pound target, will also contend for playing time. Redshirt freshman and Camden native Dakota Summers is on the roster at tight end.
standout in defensive lineman Malik Jackson, a USC transfer last season who earned All-SEC Second Team honors from the AP. Jackson finished with 48 tackles, including 11 for loss, in 12 starts in 2010, along with five sacks. He started the first four games at defensive line before subsequently recording 36 tackles (10 for loss) while starting the last eight games of the year at defensive tackle. Jackson has played in 27 games at the collegiate level and recorded a career-high eight tackles in the win at Memphis. Aside from Jackson, the rest of the defensive line is likely to be filled with players who have limited playing experience. Sophomore Daniel Hood, a converted offensive lineman, is currently slated as the starter at nose tackle. Hood made the switch in spring practice and performed well, earning the Andy Spiva Award for the top defensive surprise of the spring. On the interior of the defensive line, current backups include sophomore Corey Miller and redshirt sophomore Joseph Ayres. Miller played in all 13 games as a true freshman, including two starts, and finished with 13 tackles and one sack. Ayres appeared in 12 games last season, including a fourtackle performance at Memphis and a start at Georgia. Sophomore Jacques Smith is scheduled to start at one defensive end position, while redshirt junior Willie Bohannon and redshirt sophomore Marlon Walls are slated to compete for time at the other. Smith earned Freshman All-SEC honors in 2010 and recorded 24 tackles and two sacks while playing in all 13 games, including a career-high, five-tackle performance at LSU. Bohannon has played in 24 games over the last two seasons and recorded two sacks in 2010. Walls missed the 2010 campaign with an Achilles injury but played in seven games as a true freshman in 2009. Redshirt junior Steven Fowlkes is also listed on the depth chart after playing in four games a year ago. Tennessee’s 2011 recruiting class featured several defensive linemen, including Garden City CC transfer Maurice Couch, a redshirt sophomore with three years of eligibility remaining who will contend for playing time after earning Junior College AllAmerica honors in 2010. Other incoming freshman include (in alphabetical order): Allan Carson from Oxford, Ala., Curt Maggitt from West Palm Beach, Fla., and Gainesville, Fla. HS teammates Trevarris Saulsberry and Jordan Williams.

In the season opener on Sept. 3 against Montana, the Vols will field three new starters at linebacker. Filling the void of losing the team’s biggest hitters isn’t simple, but that’s what the Vols face. Nick Reveiz was the emotional leader of the team and led the Vols with 108 tackles in 2010, 33 more than anyone else. Savion Frazier and LaMarcus Thompson are also no longer in UT uniform, and both provided the flanks for Reveiz in one of the Vols’ strongest units last season. Herman Lathers, a 6-foot, 220-pound junior, was originally slated as a starter at linebacker, but he suffered an off-season ankle injury that will likely sideline him for one or more games. Lathers finished second in 2010 with 75 tackles and will be a welcome addition to the front seven when he returns from injury. Seniors Austin Johnson and Daryl Vereen are listed as starters at the outside linebacker. Johnson is a veteran of 31 games and contributed a career-high 44 tackles a year ago after converting from fullback, including a nine-tackle effort in the win over UAB. Vereen has impressed with his dedication and effort during the offseason and has played in 28 games, including a start against Ole Miss and recording three tackles in the bowl game vs. North Carolina. Sophomore John Propst earned Freshman All-SEC honors and is the listed starter at middle linebacker. From Hoover, Ala., Propst played in 11 games and totaled 14 tackles, including a career-high six at Georgia. Juniors Greg King and Nigel Mitchell-Thornton and sophomore Raiques Crump are also listed on the depth chart at linebacker. King, who played in four games before season-ending knee surgery in 2010, recorded 24 tackles during his freshman season in 2009, including a pair of six-tackle performances. Crump, who played mostly on special teams as a freshman last year, had 13 tackles in 11 games, including eight on special teams. Mitchell-Thornton 50

The most experienced unit on the Tennessee defense, the returners in the secondary own a combined 81 starts among them, including 22 from Second Team Coaches’ All-SEC DB Janzen Jackson.
tennessee football >>> 2011 MEDIA GUIDE
He has made 14 consecutive starts and collected 65 tackles while picking off four passes a year ago, the second-highest total on the squad. The leader in the secondary, he made a career-high 11 tackles in the win over Kentucky in 2010 and had six or more tackles in six games last year. Sophomore Brent Brewer is listed as the starter at the strong safety position opposite Jackson. Brewer finished with 30 tackles in his first collegiate season following a four-year minor league baseball career, starting the last six games of the season. He played in all 13 games in 2010 and recorded a career-best eight tackles in the win over Ole Miss. Junior Prentiss Waggner will see considerable time in the secondary and ranked fifth on the team a year ago with 57 tackles. Waggner is listed as one of 42 players on the watch list for the Ronnie Lott IMPACT Award, given annually to the top defensive player in the nation. Last year, he had five interceptions and recovered three fumbles, and he earned Second-Team All-SEC honors from the AP. Waggner also led the team with five interceptions and returned three for scores, the highest total in the nation in 2010 and a Tennessee record. His five picks also tied for third in the SEC. At cornerback, junior Marsalis Teague is currently listed as the starter at one spot with a dual listing at the other position at the moment, including senior Anthony Anderson and true freshman Justin Coleman. A year ago, Teague was a converted receiver making a transition to the secondary. The transition went well, as Teague finished with 46 tackles last season and eight pass breakups in his first season in the secondary. Teague has played in 24 games for Tennessee, including 13 starts. Anderson had 26 tackles last year and an interception as a junior. A local product from Austin-East High School, he heads into his final year with the hometown Vols in the mix at right cornerback. Additionally, mid-term enrollee Justin Coleman adds to the Vols’ deepest position is the secondary and is bracketed as a starter at right cornerback after a solid performance in the spring. Currently listed in backup cornerback slots are sophomore Eric Gordon and senior Art Evans, both of whom are major playmakers and were contributors in 2010. Gordon recorded 43 tackles and two interceptions a year ago, including a return for a touchdown against Ole Miss. Evans started six games at cornerback in 2010 and has started 18 overall during his Tennessee career. The Vols added several defensive backs on National
Signing Day, and several will challenge for playing time sooner than later. From the junior college ranks, Izauea Lanier from East Mississippi CC and former USC player Byron Moore from Los Angeles Harbor CC were added in February as accomplished talents looking for an opportunity at Tennessee. Incoming freshmen in the secondary, those include Pat Martin from Greeneville, S.C., Brian Randolph from Kennesaw, Ga., and Memphis native Tino Thomas.

The Vols lose a pair of longtime contributors in their kicking game, as kicker Daniel Lincoln (41 games) and punter Chad Cunningham (43 games) have graduated. A pair of promising youngsters in Michael Palardy and Matt Darr will take their place. Palardy inherits the placekicking duties full-time after starting six games in 2010 in place of injured senior Daniel Lincoln, who returned to kick late in the season. Palardy was 5-of-7 in field goal attempts and also handled kickoff duties for the majority of the season, a role he is slated to resume in 2011. Chip Rhome is listed as the backup at kicker and kickoff specialist. Darr is listed as the starter at punter after redshirting last fall. He was the nation’s top-ranked punting prospect as a signee in 2010 and originally signed with USC, but was granted his release and came to Tennessee prior to the season. In addition to his placekicking and kickoff duties, Palardy will serve as Darr’s backup at the punter position. On the return side, The Vols will be searching for the best success at punt returner as last year it was handled by several. This year, head coach Derek Dooley has senior Anthony Anderson listed as the man for the job to begin fall camp. On kickoff returns, sophomore Da’Rick Rogers is listed as the starter. He produced the Vols’ top return in 2010, returning the opening kickoff against Kentucky for 78 yards. Incoming freshman and Knoxville native Devrin Young has the potential to be a factor in the return game and recorded 7,433 all-purpose yards and 83 touchdowns during his prep career, including eight scored on returns.

A QUICK LOOK AT THE 2011 MATCHUPS >> Montana
First all-time meeting. Tennessee’s first all-time meeting against any member of the currently constructed Big Sky conference. The Vols have won their last two season openers and are 84-24-6 (.763) all-time. Tennessee has also won its past 16 home openers and is 90-18-5 (.819) all-time. The Vols are 14-0 against teams currently not in a BCS conference. Vols’ earliest season opener since 2008 (9/1 vs. UCLA) and earliest home opener since 2006 (9/2 vs. California).
>> Cincinnati
All-Time Series: 4-1-0 All-Time Results: L 0-35 1904 Knoxville 1919 Knoxville W 33-12 1941 Knoxville W 21-6 1942 Knoxville W 34-12 1992 Knoxville W 40-0 The Vols are 4-1 all-time vs. the Bearcats, including wins in their last four meetings. All five contests have been played in Knoxville. First game for UT against a member of the currently constructed BIG EAST since a 35-14 win against Rutgers, Sept. 28, 2002. All-time, the Vols are 15-4 (.789) against current BIG EAST members. Cincinnati’s 18 returning starters are tied for the second-most that the Vols will face in 2011. Cincinnati opens its season vs. Austin Peay on Sept. 1, giving the Bearcats nine days in between their Sept. 10 date with the Vols. That marks the longest layover that any of UT’s non-conference opponents will have before playing the Vols.

Florida has won the last six meetings to take a 21-19 series lead. The Vols last defeated the Gators, 30-28, at home in 2004 while also winning in Gainesville, 24-10, in 2003. Florida’s 13 returning starters are tied for the lowest total of any SEC opponent that the Vols will face this season, while the Gators’ 45 returning lettermen are tied for the lowest figure overall of any team on UT’s schedule. Will Muschamp enters his first season as Florida’s head coach. Tennessee is 4-3 against Florida when the Gators take the field with a first-year head coach. Wide receiver Justin Hunter collected his first career touchdown against the Gators in 2010 (9/18), a 35-yarder.
>> Buffalo
First all-time meeting. The Bulls are UT’s second non-conference opponent to open October since 1995. The only other non-SEC team to begin UT’s October schedule in that period was Northern Illinois, also from the MidAmerican Conference, in 2008. The Vols are 5-0 against current MAC teams alltime, including recent wins vs. Ohio in 2009 and Northern Illinois in 2008. Buffalo’s 2-10 record in 2010 tied Vanderbilt for the worst of any 2011 UT opponent. This game opens a three-game homestand, UT’s longest of the season.

UT hosts UGA this season and holds an 11-8-1 record against the Bulldogs in Knoxville. UT will look to avenge its most lopsided road loss last season at Georgia (14-41). Tennessee owns a 21-17-2 all-time mark against Georgia. Four of the last five meetings have been decided by at least 18 points. Georgia will play in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game against Boise State in Atlanta, Sept. 3. UT’s 26-point victory against Georgia (45-19) is the Bulldogs’ largest loss in the past two seasons. Mark Richt, in his 11th season at Georgia, is tied as the longest tenured coach at his respective school of any of UT’s opponents.

After the clock read 0:00 with the scoreboard in UT’s favor, the Vols were penalized for having too many men on the field during the final play. With one last shot, LSU’s Stevan Ridley plunged into the end zone with no time on the clock as the TIgers escaped with a two-point victory. Despite last season’s loss, the Vols own a 20-8-3 record all-time against LSU, including a 11-2-1 mark in Knoxville. LSU has won three consecutive meetings with UT, including a 28-24 triumph in Knoxville in 2006. Previously, the Tigers hadn’t won at Neyland Stadium since 1988. Les Miles, in his 11th season at LSU, is tied as the longest tenured coach at his respective school of any of UT’s opponents. LSU opens the season Sept. 3 against Oregon in the Cowboys Classic game at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The Tigers finished with the highest final 2010 poll rankings of any of UT’s 2011 opponents, placing eighth in both the Associated Press and Coaches’ polls.

Kentucky’s 53 returning lettermen are tied with Alabama for the most for any team on UT’s schedule.

All-Time Series: 1-0-0 The Vols and Blue Raiders have met just once, a 26-3 UT victory in 2002 in Knoxville. The Vols have won nine straight games against in-state opponents. Tennessee is 6-0 against current members of the Sun Belt conference. The Vols are 14-0 against teams currently not in a BCS conference. MTSU is UT’s only non-conference opponent who played in a bowl game last season, participating in the GoDaddy.com Bowl, but falling 35-21 to Miami (Ohio). The Blue Raiders return just 10 starters, the fewest of any Vols’ competitor. All-Time Results: 2002 Knoxville W 26-3
>> Vanderbilt
2005. Since then, UT has posted nine straight victories over fellow Tennessee teams. Vanderbilt returns 21 of its 24 starters from 2010, the highest total for any UT opponent. The next-highest figure is 18 for both Alabama and Cincinnati. Vanderbilt’s 2-10 record in 2010 tied Buffalo for the worst of any UT opponent. Wide receiver Da’Rick Rogers set career highs of three receptions for 59 yards vs. Vanderbilt last season.

HEAD COACH DEREK DOOLEY second season at tennessee >> The Facts

Education Clarke Central High School University of Virginia 1991 University of Georgia Law School 1994
It’s all in the details for Tennessee head coach Derek Dooley, who spent his first season at Rocky Top laying the foundation on which to support his long-term vision of success for Tennessee football. With his energetic personality, meticulous approach and belief in the dedication to both the character and on-field development of the student-athlete, Dooley, 43, was able to refocus, reshape and rebrand the Volunteer program in one short year. After being hired as Tennessee’s 22nd head football coach on January 15, 2010, Dooley had less than three weeks to assemble his staff and put the finishing touches on his first of two consecutive recruiting classes ranked in the top 12 nationally. The momentum generated during those early weeks continued to build throughout the 2010 season, as Dooley piloted the Vols to a bowl game, redesigned the now under construction $40-million, state-of-the-art football training facility, established a new academic accountability system and developed the Vol For Life (VFL) comprehensive player support and character education program. This increased commitment to excellence in all facets of the program provided the framework that helped the Vols exceed expectations on the field in Dooley’s first season at the helm. Despite serving as the third head coach of the Tennessee football team in a 15-month period and competing roughly 15-20 scholarship players below the established scholarship limit of 85, Dooley led his first Vols squad to four consecutive November wins, an appearance in the Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl against North Carolina, and a 6-7 finish. The bright future on the horizon for UT football was exemplified by performances from the talented freshmen class. Tennessee played 26 freshmen in 2010, including 16 true freshmen, both the third-highest totals in major college football. A schoolrecord seven true freshmen started against Memphis. Many of the 2010 UT freshmen assumed significant roles and produced record-setting seasons. Quarterback Tyler Bray was 4-1 as a starter and set a Tennessee record for passing yards by a freshman with 1,537. He also set overall school records for passing touchdowns (five) and passing yards (308) in a single half (both at Memphis). Freshman wide receiver Justin Hunter set a Tennessee freshman record with seven receiving touchdowns and averaged a team-best 25.9 yards per catch this season. Additionally, the Vols received 31 starts by freshmen on the offensive line, in62

cluding right tackle Ja’Wuan James, who started all 13 games at right tackle. James Stone (eight starts), JerQuari Schofield (five starts) and Zach Fulton (five starts) also started multiple games on the offensive line in 2010. And while the future certainly seems promising, the 2010 team featured a big-play offense that produced 71 plays of 20plus yards, 19 of which were touchdowns, a significant increase from the 2009 totals of 61 plays of 20-plus yards, 10 of which went for touchdowns. The 2010 Vols additionally developed as the season progressed defensively as well, ranking eighth nationally in November by allowing only 13.0 points per game. Tennessee also was a plus-nine in turnover margin in November, the third-best total nationally. And despite having such a young roster, the disciplined nature of the 2010 Vols allowed them to rank third in the conference in fewest penalty yards per game for the entire season (41.5 yards per game). Determined to make immediate strides in changing the culture of the program, Dooley created the Vol for Life program. The four-year VFL curriculum focuses on the often-overlooked personal growth of the student-athlete, encompassing the following topics: character education, personal finance, life skills, career development, spiritual growth, community service, mental conditioning, personal branding, and navigating the social media landscape. The ultimate goal of the VFL program, in Dooley’s eyes, is to reshape the culture of the program into one that produces not only great players and teams, but even greater men. The program has not only helped to build the bond between team-

Atlantic Coast Conference championship. In 1990, he was named first team Academic All-ACC and helped Virginia to a Sugar Bowl bid against Tennessee. During his playing career, Dooley caught 41 passes for 604 yards and three touchdowns. His level of play was such in the 1990 season that he was invited to and participated in the Senior Bowl. He graduated that year with a bachelor’s degree in government and foreign affairs, and then went on to earn his law degree from the University of Georgia in 1994. Before embarking on his coaching career, Dooley practiced law at a private law firm in Atlanta for two years. After a successful start to the legal profession, Dooley switched gears and returned to his love of football, beginning his coaching career in 1996 as a graduate assistant at Georgia under defensive coordinator Joe Kines. He then served from 1997-99 as wide receivers coach and co-recruiting coordinator at SMU, where Dooley helped the Mustangs to the school’s only winning season over a 20-year stretch. Dooley joined the staff at LSU under Nick Saban in 2000, serving as recruiting coordinator and tight ends coach from 2000-02 and then running backs coach and special teams coordinator from 2003-04.
While LSU’s recruiting coordinator, Dooley helped the Tigers land No. 1 classes in 2001 and 2003. The Tigers won SEC championships both of those seasons, claimed the BCS national championship in 2003, and Saban promoted Dooley to assistant head coach for the 2004 campaign. Dooley left with Saban to serve as tight ends coach for the Miami Dolphins from 2005-06. During his two years in the NFL, Dooley oversaw the continued development of tight end Randy McMichael, who ended his Dolphins career as the all-time leader in receptions by a tight end. Dooley is married to Dr. Allison Jeffers Dooley, an OB/GYN and Fort Worth, Texas, native. They have two sons, John Taylor (12) and Peyton (9) and a daughter, Julianna (7). Allison is active in fundraising and serves on the Board of Directors locally for the Susan G. Komen Foundation for breast cancer research. She also serves on the Board of Directors for Imagination Library. The Dooleys also host an annual fundraising event for Variety, an organization that provides financial support for numerous children’s charities.

In addition to charitable work with groups such as Habitat for Humanity, the Vols have partnered with other local leaders and organizations, including spending a day with the Knoxville Police Department to learn about the challenges that face law enforcement. Dooley has led by example as well, speaking at numerous events throughout Knoxville and the entire state of Tennessee to help raise more than $750,000 for children and other causes in the local community. Before his arrival in Knoxville, Dooley served as the head coach at Louisiana Tech during the 200709 seasons and also doubled as the school’s athletic director for the last two years of his tenure in Ruston. As the head coach of the football team, Dooley’s tenure was highlighted by an 8-5 mark in 2008, including the school’s first postseason victory in 30 years at the Independence Bowl. Tech finished second in the WAC that season and played in a bowl game for only the third time since joining the major college ranks in 1989. For his efforts, the Louisiana Sports Writers’ Association named him 2008 Coach of the Year. The only athletics director serving as head football coach on the major college level at that time, he was able to organize efforts to negotiate a new team apparel agreement, contract a multimedia rights deal, rebrand the Louisiana Tech athletic logos, and significantly upgrade facilities, including finalizing plans and launching a campaign for a new football training center and the addition of both a state-ofthe-art HD video scoreboard and a new FieldTurf surface at Joe Aillet Stadium. Additionally, Dooley also restructured the athletic foundation by creating LTAC, Team Tech 100 and the new LA Tech Kids Club, all of which contributed to an increase of annual giving by more than 150 percent. Net corporate sponsorship revenue also increased by 123 percent during his first year as athletic director, and Dooley also oversaw a restructuring of the ticket operation and the implementation of an online ticketing system, the first in school history, all of which led to a 51 percent increase in ticket sales and a new record for football season tickets. The youngest son of Georgia legend Vince Dooley, who coached the Bulldogs for 25 seasons and claimed six league titles and the 1980 national championship, Dooley never accepted the predetermined path to success. He played his college football at Virginia, turning down scholarship offers elsewhere to walk on and later earn his own scholarship from Cavaliers head coach George Welsh. As a wide receiver, Dooley earned that scholarship after his second season and went on to help the Cavaliers to three bowl appearances and the 1989

The start to Jim Chaney’s second season at Tennessee certainly offered a monumental assignment. UT’s offensive coordinator faced the task of replacing his quarterback, finding a starting tailback and overhauling nearly the entire offensive line. But Chaney once again pushed all the right buttons to produce what turned into a terrific rushing and passing combination that vaulted Tennessee into another bowl game. Chaney saw junior Tauren Poole pass the 1,000-yard rushing plateau during his first season as the starter, and then watched as true freshman Tyler Bray threw for a UT freshmanrecord 1,849 yards while leading the Vols to a 4-0 November. All this behind an offensive line that jelled down the stretch and offers a solid anchor for Tennessee’s surging fortunes. Chaney, 49, arrived in Knoxville in 2009 from the NFL ranks, having spent the three previous seasons as an assistant coach for the St. Louis Rams. The majority of Chaney’s coaching experience, however, comes from the collegiate ranks. His coaching and recruiting turns at Purdue, Wyoming and Cal State Fullerton made him the perfect fit for Tennessee. Chaney spent all three years in St. Louis coaching the offensive line before adding tight ends to his assignment sheet in 2008. During the 2007 campaign, Chaney helped coach an offensive line that led running back Steven Jackson to his third consecutive 1,000-yard season. Possessing one of college football’s best offensive minds, Chaney helped the Boilermakers lead the Big Ten in passing offense five times and total offense three. Purdue was ranked in the top 10 in the nation in total offense in six seasons, including 2000, when the Boilermakers ranked fourth. Chaney served as the offensive coordinator at Purdue from 1997-2005. Quarterback Drew Brees, a second-round draft pick by the San Diego Chargers in 2001, was the NCAA total offense champion in 2000, averaging 349.1 yards per game, and received the Maxwell Award as the nation’s outstanding player. Tim Stratton received the inaugural John Mackey Award as the nation’s best tight end in 2000. More importantly, the 2000 combination of Chaney and Brees under head coach Joe Tiller led Purdue to its first Big Ten championship and Rose Bowl berth in 33 years. From 1997-2001, Chaney served as recruiting coordinator and helped the Boilermakers sign some

The 1998 class was ranked second in the Big Ten and 11th nationally. Each of Chaney’s last five classes was in the top 30 nationally. Before his Purdue tenure, Chaney was offensive line coach and recruiting coordinator at Wyoming in 1995 and 1996. He joined the Cowboys in 1993 as a graduate assistant, working with the tight ends and recruiting. Chaney broke into coaching at Cal State Fullerton in 1985. He served in many areas, including offensive coordinator and recruiting coordinator as well as coaching all offensive positions. Chaney had a stint as the offensive line coach at Western Michigan during the spring of 1988 before returning to Cal State Fullerton. A native of Holden, Mo., Chaney earned his bachelor’s degree in physical education from Central Missouri State University in 1985 after a career at nose guard.

In his two seasons as a graduate assistant at Boise State, Wilcox worked with the outside linebackers. He helped Boise State to an upset victory over No. 8 Fresno State in 2001 and a 12-1 record and No. 15 national ranking in 2002. The Junction City, Ore., native played collegiately at Oregon from 1995-99 and was a part of four teams that advanced to bowl games. He played in the 1997 Las Vegas, 1998 Aloha, and 1999 Sun bowls. He redshirted in 1995 when Oregon participated in the Cotton Bowl. His first three years were spent at safety before he moved to cornerback as a senior in 1999 and claimed All-Pac-10 second-team honors. Wilcox earned his bachelor’s degree in anthropology from Oregon in 1999. Wilcox is the son of Dave Wilcox, All-Pro linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2000.

Defensive Coordinator
Justin Wilcox saved his best defensive showings for last during his debut season in the Southeastern Conference. Wilcox blended a unit of defenders that hit its stride during Tennessee’s unbeaten November streak to a bowl game. The Vols’ defense registered more sacks, forced turnovers and took advantage with big-play scoring opportunities while limiting four straight foes to no more than 14 points. Wilcox came to Knoxville from Boise State, where for the previous four seasons he served as defensive coordinator and helped the Broncos blast their way into the elite of college football. In 2009, Boise State completed a perfect 14-0 season with a Fiesta Bowl victory over TCU. That victory lifted Boise State’s record to 49-4 in four seasons with Wilcox at the defensive helm under head coach Chris Petersen. Wilcox, 34, made his mark on the national defensive rankings in 2009, guiding the Broncos to a No. 14 statistical finish in both total defense and scoring defense and a No. 3 showing in turnover margin. Boise State bookended the season with two of its most impressive victories, clamping down on Pac-10 Conference champion Oregon 19-8 to start the year and then closing with the 17-10 triumph over previously undefeated TCU at the Fiesta Bowl. The Broncos of 2008 were nearly as tough, finishing 12-1 and winning their second Western Athletic Conference title in three seasons. Wilcox’s defense ranked third nationally in scoring, allowing just 12.6 points per game and holding eight of its 13 opponents to 10 points or fewer. Boise State led the WAC in total defense and scoring defense all four seasons under Wilcox. Wilcox coached six seasons overall in Boise, also working as a graduate assistant for the Broncos from 2001-02. Among his prized stalwarts were defensive end Ryan Winterswyk and defensive back Kyle Wilson, both of whom twice earned All-WAC first team nods. In both 2007 and 2006, the Broncos also led the WAC in rushing defense. Boise State was eighth nationally against the run during Wilcox’s debut season as defensive coordinator, and his overall defensive scheme was instrumental in helping that 2006 squad to a 13-0 record and the now-famous 43-42 overtime win over Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl. Before returning to Boise State as defensive coordinator, Wilcox spent three seasons (2003-05) at California as linebackers coach.

Charlie Baggett blended a talented mixture of upperclassmen and newcomers to give the Vols an excellent receiving corps during his first year at UT. The NFL veteran, who has coached nine 1,000yard receivers in the pro ranks, saw seniors Gerald Jones and Denarius Moore lead Tennessee in 2010. Jones was tops in catches with 55 for 596 yards and four touchdowns, while Moore led the way with 981 receiving yards and nine TDs on 47 receptions. Moore also recorded two of the top five receiving performances in UT history, with his 228 yards at South Carolina ranking second and his 205 yards vs. Kentucky placing fifth all-time. Freshmen also thrived under Baggett’s leadership. Justin Hunter made his presence felt with a team-leading 25.9-yard receiving average, finishing with 16 catches for 415 yards. His seven receiving scores were second only to Moore and were a UT freshman record. Da’Rick Rogers caught 11 passes for 167 yards to go with 117 rushing yards and a 24.8-yard kickoff return average. Baggett, 58, who serves as Tennessee’s assistant head coach and wide receivers coach, brought 33 years of coaching experience to the Vols, including 11 seasons as an NFL assistant. Baggett spent 2009 with the St. Louis Rams and before that was at Washington, where he coached the Huskies’ wide receivers from 2007-08. Baggett was associate head coach/offense and wide receivers coach for the Miami Dolphins from 2005-06, coaching under Nick Saban and alongside UT head coach Dooley. Under Baggett, Dolphins wide receiver Chris Chambers had a Pro Bowl season in 2005, catching 82 passes for 1,118 yards and 11 touchdowns. Baggett was wide receivers coach for the Vikings from 2000-04, coaching Cris Carter and Randy Moss. In the first four seasons of Baggett’s tenure, Moss had 376 receptions for 5,649 yards and 49 touchdowns, all of which ranked in the top three in the NFL. Moss also broke the NFL record for most receiving TDs in a rookie season with 17, which still stands today. Carter caught 169 passes before retiring after the 2001 season. Baggett came to the Vikings following the 1999 season at Green Bay, where Packers receivers Antonio Freeman and Bill Schroeder each surpassed 1,000 yards and combined for 148 catches.

Offensive Line
Harry Hiestand (pronounced HE-stand) faced the task a year ago of putting together his first offensive line at Tennessee from an inexperienced group. The Vols returned only one player with any starting experience at all, and that amounted to a total of three starts. Yet the former Super Bowl coach with the Chicago Bears molded Tennessee’s young but talented group up front and formed a unit that should be a foundation for growth over the next few seasons. Hiestand saw his two tackles, sophomore Dallas Thomas and true freshman Ja’Wuan James, start every game. Two more true freshmen, James Stone at center and Zach Fulton at guard, worked their way into the starting lineup under Hiestand’s guidance, with Stone earning multiple Freshman All-America honors and James receiving Freshman All-SEC recognition. Hiestand’s group collectively helped tailback Tauren Poole’s efforts in tying for the SEC lead with six 100-yard rushing games and registering just the 16th 1,000-yard rushing season in UT history with 1,034 yards. The Malvern, Pa., native came to UT after five seasons as offensive line coach with the Chicago Bears, where he helped the NFL franchise to its first Super Bowl appearance in 21 years. Before that, Hiestand was the offensive line coach for 16 consecutive seasons at three BCS universities, with the longest tenure being eight seasons as offensive line coach and assistant head coach at Illinois.

Darin Hinshaw’s impact was immediate as Tennessee’s first-year quarterbacks coach. The former signalcaller helped two UT quarterbacks – both making their debuts in Knoxville – lead the Vols offense to a bowl game and a third-place finish in the SEC’s Eastern Division. Hinshaw’s quarterback duo of Matt Simms and Tyler Bray combined for 3,309 yards passing and 26 touchdowns in 2010. The true freshman Bray assumed the starter’s role in November and guided the team to a 4-0 finish to claim bowl eligibility. During those four starts, Bray threw for 1,234 yards and 12 TDs against just four interceptions, earning SEC Freshman of the Week three times. A Punta Gorda, Fla., native, Hinshaw was a recordsetting quarterback himself during his collegiate playing days and spent the last three seasons as wide receivers coach at Memphis on the staff of former Vol footballer Tommy West. Hinshaw, 38, joined the Memphis staff after serving one season as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Georgia Southern. In 2006, Georgia Southern ranked 27th nationally in total offense, averaging 359.9 yards per game. Prior to that, Hinshaw worked at Middle Tennessee for five seasons. He was the running backs coach his first two seasons before being elevated to co-offensive coordinator in February 2003. Under Hinshaw’s guidance, the MTSU offense consistently led the Sun Belt Conference and was among the nation’s statistical leaders. A highlight was in 2003, when the Blue Raiders offense was the highest scoring unit in the league at 27.7 points a contest. Hinshaw made his way to Middle Tennessee from Central Florida, his alma mater. Hinshaw spent 1999 as a graduate assistant before taking over the quarterback coaching duties in 2000. The Punta Gorda, Fla., native set numerous school records for the Knights, finishing as career leader in every major passing category, including yards (9,000) and TDs (82). During his time under center, UCF had a combined 28-16 record, including a 9-3 mark in 1993 that resulted in a berth in the Division I-AA playoffs. Hinshaw was named in 2004 to UCF’s 25th Anniversary Team. Following his playing days at UCF, Hinshaw began a career in pro football. After a brief stint with the Cleveland Browns, he spent two years with the Orlando Predators of the Arena Football League. A 1993 University of Central Florida graduate, Hinshaw earned his master’s in business administration from UCF in 1996.

Before that, Joseph gathered knowledge of the Louisiana high school football circuit -- especially south Louisiana -- thanks to his three seasons each as an assistant coach at both Archbishop Shaw and Destrehan high schools in the New Orleans area. Joseph was at Archbishop Shaw from 1999 through 2002, and then at Destrehan through 2005. Joseph earned his bachelor’s degree from Northwestern State in 1996. He was the 1995 Southland Conference Baseball Player of the Year and went on to four minor league playing seasons in the Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres systems. He is married to the former Amanda Gauthe of Destrehan, La., and they are the parents of daughters Taylor and Lynleigh.

Defensive Backs/ Recruiting Coordinator
Terry Joseph’s defensive secondary unit helped the Vols finish among the nation’s top 20 with 18 interceptions in 2010. UT’s 18 picks also were fourth in the SEC while tying for 19th overall in major college football, and 10 of those 18 interceptions helped spark Tennessee’s 4-0 November run to a bowl game. Only safety Janzen Jackson started every game, while Joseph matched five other consistently improving defenders among the three remaining secondary positions. Prentiss Waggner joined Jackson to earn All-SEC second team honors, and Marsalis Teague, Eric Gordon and Brent Brewer were among the key figures in Tennessee’s defensive turnaround. Joseph’s mentorship also saw Waggner break the UT record for interceptions returned for touchdowns in a season with three in 2010. Joseph also serves as recruiting coordinator under Derek Dooley, and the New Orleans native held those same duties the previous three seasons on Dooley’s staff at Louisiana Tech. Joseph helped turn around a Bulldogs secondary unit that sliced its scoring defense average nearly in half by 2008. That’s the year Tech won its first bowl game in 30 years at the Independence Bowl. The Bulldogs finished second in the WAC and played in a bowl game for only the third time since 1989.

Tennessee head coach Derek Dooley welcomed a familiar face when he named Eric Russell to his assistant coaching staff. Russell coached two seasons under Dooley at Louisiana Tech before moving to the Texas Tech staff. During his first season in Knoxville, Russell sparked improvement in UT’s special teams units. The combination of Daniel Lincoln and true freshman Michael Palardy made 15 of 18 field goals. Additionally, the kickoff return teams averaged 21.5 yards while allowing only 19.0 yards per return. The Vols also successfully pulled off two fake punts for first downs and a kickoff reverse that sent true freshman Da’Rick Rogers on a 78yard runback. In addition, his work with tight ends helped senior Luke Stocker finish third on UT with 39 catches. The 43-year-old Russell has a reputation as one of the top special teams coaches in the country and was special teams coordinator at Texas Tech in 2009. For his efforts, Russell was a nominee for the 2009 Frank Broyles Awards honoring the nation’s top assistant coaches. The Idaho native arrived in Lubbock after two highly successful seasons in the same position at Louisiana Tech under Dooley. In 2008, he helped make the Bulldogs the No. 1-ranked special teams unit in the entire nation in the accumulation of net punting, punt returns, kickoff return defense and kickoff returns. Tech scored five times on special teams in 2008, and during Russell’s two seasons the Bulldogs scored via the punt return, kickoff return, blocked field goal return and blocked punt return. Before that, Russell spent 13 seasons at North Texas, including five as the special teams coordinator. During his tenure at North Texas, Russell helped lead the program to four consecutive Sun Belt Conference titles and four consecutive appearances in the New Orleans Bowl from 2001-04.

Texas blocked 14 punts, including seven during the 2003 season. Prior to joining the North Texas staff in 1994, Russell served as a graduate assistant at New Mexico in 1993 and at Idaho in 1991. An all-state quarterback at St. Marie’s High School, Russell was named the Idaho Offensive Player of the Year as a senior before earning all-conference honors at Spokane (Wash.)

Linebackers
Peter Sirmon became the newest member of the Tennessee staff when he was promoted during the winter to assistant coach in charge of linebackers. Sirmon, 34, spent last season at Tennessee as a graduate assistant coach for the defensive staff, spending most of his time with UT’s safeties. That proved to be an excellent match for the Vols, with Janzen Jackson earning a second-team All-SEC nod and Brent Brewer making great strides in his first season back from the professional baseball ranks. Sirmon says his recent playing experience definitely contributes to his coaching success. “I think anytime you have walked in the same shoes as the players, there’s a level of communication and understanding. You’re asking them to do things you know can be done and if things are difficult, you understand the problems they’re having. It’s easier to relate to them.” Sirmon brought a wealth of experience and knowledge to the Vols. The seven-year NFL veteran spent 2009 as a graduate assistant at Oregon, his alma mater. Oregon won the Pacific-10 Conference title that year and played in the Rose Bowl after compiling a 10-2 regular season mark. Sirmon’s coaching input helped the Ducks lead the Pacific-10 Conference in sacks that season with nearly three per game. Prior to a stint with the Ducks, Sirmon served as coach for the linebackers and kickoff coverage teams at Central Washington. It was his first coaching position since retiring from the NFL. The Wildcats compiled a 10-1 regular season record that year and advanced to the NCAA Division II football playoffs. Sirmon’s playing days saw the Wenatchee, Wash., native selected by the Tennessee Titans in the fourth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. He spent his entire seven-year career playing linebacker in Nashville. An All-Pac-10 performer, Sirmon was a four-year starter and letterwinner at Oregon from 1996-99. During his time in Eugene, Sirmon was a part of 30 Ducks wins. A teammate and roomate from his Oregon days was Justin Wilcox, Tennessee’s second-year defensive coordinator. “Justin and I have a really strong relationship,” Sirmon says. “I think we can both talk frankly with each other and understand that it’s work.” Sirmon and his wife, Lindsay, have four children: Jackson, 11; Presley, 9; Savanna, 8; and Sadie, 5.

Lance Thompson arrived in Knoxville three years ago the owner of a championship pedigree. That mentality is building a foundation in the Tennessee defense and already paying dividends. Thompson coached the UT linebackers during his first two seasons in Knoxville, guiding Nick Reveiz to a team-high 108 tackles last year. Reveiz also was a finalist for the Burlsworth Trophy, presented to a former walkon having the biggest impact on his team. But now Thompson is returning to the defensive line, one of the many positions he had handled throughout his successful coaching tenure. Thompson, a Riverdale, Ga., native, helped mold national title-winners at Georgia Tech and LSU, and spent his two seasons before UT rejuvenating Alabama’s fortunes toward the SEC elite as outside linebackers coach and recruiting specialist. All told, Thompson has been a member of two SEC championship coaching staffs, two ACC championship staffs and one Conference USA divisional winner. Thompson, 47, owns two separate coaching stints alongside Nick Saban, having originally worked for Saban and alongside Derek Dooley at LSU for the 200203 seasons before rejoining Saban at Alabama in 2007. Thompson served LSU as the assistant head coach in charge of recruiting and tight ends during their national championship season in 2003. After his LSU tenure, Thompson spent three years as defensive coordinator at Central Florida. He previously served as Alabama’s defensive line coach in 19992000. Prior to his first two-year stint at Alabama, Thompson was a part of the Georgia Tech staff for 11 years. During his stay with the Yellow Jackets, Thompson was defensive line coach in 1998; defensive ends coach in 1996 and 1997 and tight ends coach in 1995.

Ron McKeefery joined Tennessee in January as football head strength and conditioning coach. The 2008 Under Armour Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coach of the Year, McKeefery recently spent 11 seasons at South Florida, where he served as assistant athletics director for strength and conditioning and head strength and conditioning coach. McKeefery’s most recent role was as human performance coordinator for the U.S. Army Special Forces, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment, in Fort Campbell, Ky. A key member of the South Florida coaching staff, McKeefery’s tenure with the Bulls coincided with that program’s rise from Div. I-AA to perennial Big East Conference contender. In addition to six consecutive bowl games and 19 NFL draft picks, the success of his strength and conditioning program is best exemplified by the fact that South Florida was 10-0 in overtime during his 11 seasons with the school. After spending one season as a coach at Ottawa (Kan.) University, his alma mater, McKeefery worked as an intern with the Kansas City Royals. In the two years before going to South Florida, he worked with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers during the 1999 season, a year in which the Bucs played in the NFC Championship Game. McKeefery then spent the 2000 season as the head strength and conditioning coach with the Berlin Thunder of NFL Europe. He is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist with Distinction and Coach Practitioner under the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as well as a Strength and Conditioning Coach Certified under the Collegiate Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association (CSCCA). He also served as the state NSCA Director for Florida (North) and is certified by both the NSCA and the CSCCA. The Missouri native owns a bachelor of arts in biology from Ottawa and a master of arts in adult education from South Florida. McKeefery earned all-conference honors in both football and track at Ottawa and was also a two-time Academic All-America. Ron is married to the former Angela Hamilton.

David Blackburn continues to display his value and versatility to the University of Tennessee and currently serves as Senior Associate Athletics Director for Administration. Blackburn is involved in other administrative duties as assigned by the athletic director. Blackburn, a 20-year veteran within the athletics department, has served in many capacities during his tenure, including assistant recruiting coordinator, director of recruiting compliance for all men’s teams, director of football operations, assistant athletic director for development and associate athletic director for football. Blackburn has direct oversight of the football department, serving as the football sport administrator. In addition, he has also served as the sport administrator for both track and field and swimming and diving. Blackburn’s duties call for working closely with director of football operations Brad Pendergrass in the oversight of all football-related operations. He has personnel oversight as well as responsibility for the coordination of preseason camp, in-season practice sessions, travel, bowl arrangements and the football budget. A Loudon native, Blackburn graduated from UT after serving two years as head football student manager and student assistant under head coach Johnny Majors. He joined UT Athletics in a full-time capacity in 1992 and has served in a number of roles, including
five years as an assistant athletics director for football administration under head coach Philip Fulmer. Blackburn is currently pursuing a master’s degree in sport management. Blackburn lives in Maryville with his wife, the former Andrea Radel of Albion, Mich, and their two daughters, Emma and Charlee.
Brad Pendergrass returned to Knoxville in 2010 as UT’s director of football operations on head coach Derek Dooley’s staff. Pendergrass’ primary role at Tennessee is to oversee the day-to-day administrative operation of the football program in the areas of budgetary management, team travel, pre-season training camp and bowl planning, as well as serving as head coach Derek Dooley’s liaison to all athletics department support units that assist the football team. Prior to his return to Rocky Top, Pendergrass held the same position for one season at Wisconsin after a five-year stint at Mississippi State. His first full-time position, however, was at Tennessee with his alma mater in football recruiting. Pendergrass, 35, made the move to Wisconsin in 2009 as the Badgers’ director of football operations and handled the team’s administrative operations, budget, team travel, and nonconference scheduling as well as other administrative duties under head coach Bret Bielema. At Mississippi State, he spent his first three years as assistant to the head coach for Sylvester Croom. Pendergrass was named coordinator of football operations in 2007, and then was promoted prior to the 2008
season to assistant AD for football operations. In that role, Pendergrass was part of athletics director Greg Byrne’s senior staff, while maintaining his responsibilities with the football program. Pendergrass spent 10 seasons with the Vols under former head coach Phillip Fulmer -- rising from student manager, to graduate assistant for the coaching staff, to graduate assistant in football operations and later to full-time recruiting assistant. During that 10-year period, the Vols enjoyed 10 consecutive bowl game appearances, highlighted by winning the 1998 national championship and back to back SEC championships in 1997 and 1998. A native of Huntingdon, Pendergrass received his bachelor’s degree in business/marketing from UT in 1998. He earned a master’s in human performance and sports studies in 2001.

Condredge Holloway is approaching his 14th year on the Tennessee staff and continues to serve as a vital link between the current Vols football staff and its storied history. UT’s Assistant Athletics Director for Student-Athlete Relations and Letterman also is one of the most celebrated players in school history. Recently, Holloway’s amazing career was the subject of an ESPN documentary, “The Color Orange: The Condredge Holloway Story,” produced by Kenny Chesney. It recounted the life and playing days of the SEC’s first African-American starting quarterback. Holloway, 57, primarily serves as the department’s liaison with the Lettermen’s Club, assisting with reunions and other projects. Holloway also is the point person for numerous issues surrounding the conduct of a major college football program. Holloway has taken great pride in helping former Vols find their niche in the business world by assisting them with contacts and employment opportunities following graduation. Holloway remains associated in the minds of Tennessee fans with the razzle-dazzle offense he quarterbacked during his undergraduate days of the 1970s. Nicknamed “The Artful Dodger,” Holloway packed excitement into every play, whether it developed into a pass or a scramble. In his three seasons (1972-74) as a starter, Holloway directed the Vols to the 1972 Astro-Bluebonnet, 1973 Gator and 1974 Liberty bowls and an overall record of
25-9-2. He ended his career with the best interceptionto-attempt ratio in Tennessee history, throwing just 12 interceptions in 407 collegiate attempts. In addition to being the first black quarterback at Tennessee and in the Southeastern Conference, Holloway also was the first black baseball player in UT history. The outstanding prospect had been selected out of high school by the Montreal Expos with their first overall pick. Holloway opted instead for a two-sport collegiate career and went on to excel on the diamond. He garnered AllSEC and All-America honors as a shortstop in 1975 and finished with a .353 career average. Two years ago, Holloway -- still the owner of UT’s longest hitting streak at 27 games -- was selected to Tennessee’s All-Century Baseball Team, making him the only UT student-athlete named to all-century squads in both baseball and football. Holloway left Knoxville and played 13 seasons in the Canadian Football League, compiling impressive numbers for the Ottawa Rough Riders (1975-80), Toronto Argonauts (1981-86) and British Columbia Lions (1987). He threw for more than 25,000 yards and rushed for another 3,167 while scoring 155 touchdowns. He was league MVP in 1982. After his professional playing days ended, Holloway returned to UT and earned his degree. In addition to his recent induction in Alabama, Holloway is a member of the Canadian Football Hall

Vols Earn Music City Bowl Trip Thanks to November Sweep Young Roster Quickly Gains Experience by Season’s End By Josh Pate /// UTSports.com
Derek Dooley heard the mumblings. His players did, too. Halfway through the 2010 football season and his University of Tennessee Volunteers sitting with a 2-6 record, the men wearing orange heard their critics talk of how this could be the worst Tennessee football team in years … perhaps ever. There were the difficult times against highly touted opponents Oregon and Florida, and a nailbiting, two-overtime victory to beat UAB. Then there was the winless October, which began with a heartbreaking loss at LSU and ended in three conference thumpings. Dooley and his players heard the doubters. And they answered. “Sitting there at 2-6 and people talking about us being the worst football team in Tennessee history, and nobody in this organization flinched,” Tennessee’s first-year head coach said. “I’m real proud of them for that.” Dooley had reason to be proud. After a September and October in which the Vols faced five opponents ranked inside the top 20, UT turned things around and won four consecutive games to close out the regular season with a 6-6 (3-5 SEC) record to become bowl eligible for the second season in a row and 49th time in school history. Tennessee lost a heartbreaker to North Carolina
in the Music City Bowl, but the season was an improbable turnaround nonetheless. “We never got affected by the results,” Dooley said. “Everybody in the organization improved over the course of the season, and that’s all you can ask for.” Perhaps nobody improved more than freshman quarterback Tyler Bray. He came off the bench against South Carolina and, despite throwing an interception on his first pass, provided a spark in the Tennessee offense with a pair of touchdowns. He had some help as senior wide receiver Denarius Moore exploded for a career-high 228 yards receiving and brought the Vols to a fourth quarter tie with the Gamecocks. But things fell apart when South Carolina superstar Alshon Jeffrey caught a 70-yard touchdown pass to break the tie and help the Gamecocks pull away for the 38-24 victory over the Vols. It was Tennessee’s sixth loss of the season. At that moment, it was gut-check time. Nobody outside the locker room was talking about a bowl game; they were talking about long-term stability. Inside the locker room, however, the talk was about fixing what was broken – and fixing it immediately. “Any other team, period, could just hang their heads and quit after going 2-6 and losing for 40 days straight,” said senior receiver Gerald Jones. “This young team didn’t, which is very exciting to see and great for the future. We kept fighting and turned this season around and got ourselves a bowl game to go to.” That’s thanks to an explosive November. A week after the South Carolina loss, Bray earned his first start at Memphis and responded with 325 yards and five touchdowns in a 50-14 romp over the Tigers. Then the Vols dominated Ole Miss for a surprising 52-14 Homecoming victory at Neyland Stadium, UT’s first conference win of the season. A hard-fought 2410 win at Vanderbilt left it all hanging on a streak that pre-dates anybody on the roster. >>> continued on page 118
REVIEW >>> continued from page 117
Tennessee’s bowl game chances and getting its record to .500 sat on extending a 25-game winning streak over Kentucky. Again, Bray stepped up with a 354yard, two touchdown day. But the seniors shined most. Nick Reveiz recovered a critical Kentucky fumble that shifted the momentum in Tennessee’s favor. The Wildcats were leading 7-0 and ready to claw once again from the 1-yard line. UK’s Derrick Locke fumbled the football into the checkerboard, and Reveiz pounced on it. Thwarting a potential 14-0 deficit, the Vols rallied back quickly. Bray used four passes to hit Jones for the game-tying touchdown. On the next drive, Bray hit Moore on a 49-yard pass and then connected with him again for a 12-yard touchdown and the lead. Moore finished with 205 yards receiving – mostly on deep passes from Bray – to record his second 200-yard game of the year and become the only UT player to boast that accomplishment. When the horn blew, the Vols won 24-14, kept the streak alive at 26 games, and did the improbable considering the start to the season by securing a bowl bid. For this group to lead the rebound the way it did and head to Tennessee’s second consecutive bowl game is evidence of the group’s character. However, by no means was the path as simple as it seems. Perhaps no step along the way was more painful than the afternoon in Baton Rouge. UT began celebrating what appeared to be an upset victory over No. 12 LSU as the Tigers saw a bad snap end with zeroes showing on the game clock and the Vols leading 14-10. Players ran onto the field, coaches headed toward each other to shake hands, and television began showing the final score. But officials ruled that Tennessee had too many players on the field, and LSU was awarded another play from the 1-yard line. That’s when Stevan Ridley pushed into the end zone with no time left to win the game for LSU 16-14. If that wasn’t enough, UT suffered back-to-back losses to chief rivals Georgia (41-14) and Alabama (4110), both heralded for matching Dooley with his past through family and mentors. The South Carolina loss capped the winless October and left the Vols at 2-6. Yet there was no white flag. In fact, it was just the opposite. The locker room mentality strengthened. Players understood the challenge they faced, and they answered the bell. “It’s hard to describe how proud I am of this football team,” Dooley said. “All the stuff that’s happened to these guys, these were the few that stuck with it and loved Tennessee. They didn’t care what happened. They believed in Tennessee. They got rewarded for sticking to it.” 118

THE WRAPUP
THE VOLS
>> UT MARTIN
Tauren Poole had touchdown runs of 24 yards and 14 yards as Tennessee beat UT Martin 50-0 for Derek Dooley’s first victory as the Volunteers’ coach. It was Tennessee’s first shutout since a 48-0 win over Vanderbilt in 2003 and first time facing an FCS opponent since a win over The Citadel in 1983. Poole had been waiting for his chance to shine and he delivered, darting through holes, running around coverage and picking up 110 yards on 17 carries before sitting out the fourth quarter. “The backs ran well; the line blocked well,” Dooley said. “They were packing them in and trying to stop the run, but we did a nice job up front. The runners ran hard and I think we just wore them down a bit.” David Oku had his share of carries too and found some large holes for a 44-yard touchdown run with 5:00 left in the first quarter to give the Vols a 10-0 lead in the season opener for both teams. Denarius Moore ran 58 yards for a touchdown and caught a 42-yard scoring pass from Matt Simms. Moore finished with 66 yards on four catches, and Gerald Jones had 86 yards on six catches before injuring his left hand. Tennessee scored nearly every way it could. Austin Johnson and Greg King tackled D.J. McNeil in the end zone for a safety. Prentiss Waggner intercepted Derek Carr and ran 54 yards for a touchdown. Daniel Lincoln kicked field goals of 21 and 35 yards. “I was real proud of how we came out in the third quarter too,” Dooley said. “We weren’t relaxed or complacent. Overall, it was a good, solid win.” UT Martin’s young, inexperienced offense couldn’t find any rhythm. The Skyhawks neither completed a pass nor picked up a first down in the first quarter but were flagged for delay of game four times. By the end of the game, they had 142 yards on offense compared to Tennessee’s 537. The Vols shut out an opponent for the first time since Nov. 22, 2003, then they blanked Vanderbilt at home, 48-0. “The defense was aggressive,” Dooley said. “We tackled well, and those are the basics you worry about in the first game.” Carr finished 9-for-22 for 66 yards and threw two interceptions. The Skyhawks were penalized 11 times for 83 yards. In addition to his shared tackle for the safety, linebacker Johnson also intercepted a pass in his return

Vols’ fast start, rain delay can’t keep Ducks from flying to easy triumph Tennessee’s early success and a first-quarter weather delay couldn’t keep No. 7 Oregon from a big victory over the Vols. LaMichael James ran for 134 yards, including a 72-yard touchdown to open the second half, and the Ducks scored 45 consecutive points to beat Tennessee 48-13. The Vols were on the board first with a pair of Daniel Lincoln field goals before a thunderstorm roared through Knoxville, halting the game for 70 minutes. The delay didn’t seem to affect UT as the Big Orange defense held Oregon to a field goal and then scored the game’s first touchdown, a 1-yard plunge by Tauren Poole that made it 13-3. “I was proud of how we came out and competed early in the game,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “We screwed up the last three minutes of the half in all phases. So we go in halftime tied, which was fine. But we didn’t have a good look in our eye at halftime.” James had only 27 yards at the break after being targeted by the Volunteers’ defense for the entire first half. But he broke several tackles on the 72-yard touchdown run that vaulted Oregon into the lead for good. The Vols then seemed to fall apart. “You would have thought we were down 40,” Dooley said. “We hit some bad adversity in the third quarter and we didn’t handle it well.” The Vols were penalized for having an ineligible receiver on one play and a false start on another. A pass by Matt Simms intended for Zach Rogers was cleanly picked off by Cliff Harris, who returned it 76-yards for another score to give Oregon a 27-13 lead with 6:27 left in the third quarter. Simms, who completed 15 of 29 for 151 yards, struggled to connect with his receivers. Poole and backup David Oku couldn’t get their footing. Kenjon Barner, who scored five TDs filling in for James as the Ducks’ No. 1 tailback in a 72-0 win against New Mexico in Week 1, took a punt back 80 yards for a touchdown that made it 41-13 with 11:39 left. The Ducks struggled to find a first-half answer for Poole, who had 111 yards rushing in the first quarter. He finished with 162 yards on 23 carries. “He was great and we needed him to be,” Dooley said. “He ran hard. We caught them in some pretty good looks and they made adjustments.” Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas completed 17 of 32 for 202 yards and two touchdowns. The 120
THE WRAPUP • Tennessee’s top four tacklers in the game all recorded career highs: Nick Reveiz (10), Chris Walker (8), Gerald Williams (7) and Prentiss Waggner (7). • Sophomore Marsalis Teague made his first defensive start at cornerback. Teague started five games at wide receiver in 2009. • The last time Tennessee was involved in a weather delay was at Arkansas in 2001, a game the Vols won 13-3. • The 35-point margin was Tennessee’s worst loss in Neyland Stadium history, topping the 33-0 defeat to VMI on Nov. 17, 1923.

UT scored first for the first time against Florida since 2001 when Daniel Lincoln kicked a first-quarter 49-yard field goal, tying his career high. But the Vols had their own struggles. After recovering a fumbled punt return by Janoris Jenkins at the Florida 21, the Vols drove 18 yards but missed a chance to score when Jonathan Bostic picked off a pass by Simms in the end zone. 121

THE WRAPUP

>> FLORIDA
Tennessee had its chance against a second consecutive top 10 foe, down seven points midway through the fourth quarter. But Florida used a nine-play drive capped by a 2-yard touchdown run from Trey Burton to seal a 31-17 victory at Neyland Stadium. Tennessee tied the game at 10 with a 49-yard touchdown pass from Matt Simms to Denarius Moore with 8:59 in the third quarter. Simms completed 19 of 31 for two touchdowns. Florida stalled on the next drive until Gators coach Urban Meyer called for a fake punt on fourthand-6. Omarius Hines ran 36 yards to keep the drive alive, and John Brantley eventually connected with Frankie Hammond on a 7-yard touchdown pass. “It was a big play; it was a good call by them,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “Looking back, we should have been in safe punt. We were trying to make something happen a little bit. They made a good play and got us on that.” Jeremy Brown picked off a pass by Simms on third-and-6 at the Tennessee 40, which set up Gillislee’s second touchdown that gave the Gators a 2410 lead just before the end of the third quarter. The Vols, who were hosting a second AP top 10 team in as many weeks, had found themselves in a similar situation a week earlier against Oregon and unraveled. They seemed on the verge of a meltdown again when Simms appeared to be sacked in the end zone for a safety, but an official review ruled him down on the 1. Tennessee punted but got the ball back when Dooley challenged a run by Jeff Demps, insisting the Florida track star had fumbled. The officials agreed, and the Vols answered with a 35-yard touchdown pass from Simms to true freshman Justin Hunter on fourth-and-6 to cut Florida’s lead to 2417 with a 11:24 left. Dooley, who was facing the Gators for the first time as a head coach, said that’s the kind of reaction he expects from a team that hasn’t done much to prove it can fight back from adversity. “We should do that. I’m proud of them for that, but we should do that every game,” Dooley said. “All that does is give you a chance, and it proved out.” It also didn’t last very long. Florida responded with Trey Burton’s 2-yard touchdown run that iced the Vols, who allowed two more big sacks on Simms and turned the ball over with a fumble

REVIEW
Simms-to-Moore toss lifts Vols past Blazers in double-overtime thriller Tennessee made its last chance at victory count, and the Vols escaped with a 32-29 win over UAB in double overtime at Neyland Stadium. Matt Simms threw the game-winner, a 25-yard touchdown to Denarius Moore on UT’s first play of the second overtime. The score was a sudden end to a seesaw affair that saw the Blazers rally from a 16-point halftime deficit. “He (Moore) was my first read on the play, came off the play action, the safety flat-footed there for a split second and that was all the time I needed to make my decision,” Simms said. “I just tried to put it in a place where he could go up and get it and jump over the corner, and that is exactly what he did.” The Volunteers held a 23-7 lead at halftime thanks mainly to Moore’s first touchdown, a 13-yard reception, and Zach Rogers’ 72-yard catch and run. Both of those plays came in the first quarter and were followed by a Daniel Lincoln 47-yard field goal and Prentiss Waggner’s second interception return for touchdown of 2010, this one from 9 yards just before the break. But the Blazers staged their comeback as David Isabelle found Frantrell Forrest on a 27-yard touchdown strike in the third quarter, and ran for 6 yards for another score in the fourth. After each touchdown, Bryan Ellis hit Jeffery Anderson on a pair of two-point conversions. Daniel Lincoln kicked a 40-yard field goal for Tennessee to open the first overtime, and UAB’s Josh Zahn, who missed field goals from 41, 35, 49, 30 and 54 in regulation, connected on a 35-yard field goal to answer. Ellis hit Pat Shed on a 14-yard pass to pick up a first down in the second overtime but his 7-yard pass to Patrick Hearn came up 4 yards short of the end zone, and Zahn scored on a 21-yard field goal to put UAB up 29-26 before the Vols’ final touchdown. The Blazers dominated the game in nearly every category. They picked up 544 yards compared to the Vols’ 287 yards, had eight more first downs and converted seven more third down attempts. Tennessee’s defense couldn’t stop UAB, who used Isabelle, the backup quarterback, to chip away yards with his runs and Ellis, the starter, to convert thirdand-long situations. Ellis completed 29 of 55 for 373 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Isabelle ran 16 times for 73 yards and completed 4 of 5 for 56 yards and a touchdown. 122
THE WRAPUP • Tennessee improved to 9-2 in overtime, including a 5-0 mark at Neyland Stadium. • Matt Simms’ 72-yard touchdown pass to Zach Rogers was Tennessee’s longest scoring pass play since Erik Ainge connected with Robert Meachem for an 84-yard TD at Memphis in 2006. • Tennessee started the game 0-for-10 on third down conversions until David Oku’s 1-yard run midway through the fourth quarter. The Vols finished the contest 2-of-15 on third down. • The Vols finished 2-2 at home in September.

Still, the Vols seemed to be in control in the first half. The Vols went for it on fourth-and-1 at the UAB 15 on its first drive and got two yards on a quarterback sneak by Simms, who threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to Moore on the next play. UAB had just tied the game at 7 when Simms answered with the 72-yarder to Rogers on the next play. It was Tennessee’s longest play since an 87-yard touchdown run by LaMarcus Coker against Vanderbilt in 2006.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU scored on the game’s very first play and again on the very last play -- after Tennessee was penalized for too many men on the field. Those scores were enough to allow the Tigers to escape with a 16-14 decision that was beyond heartbreaking to the UT faithful. The Tigers remained unbeaten after a Volunteers penalty for too many players on the field rescued LSU from what appeared to be a botched final play. LSU was confused on third-and-goal from the 1 and allowed the clock to run nearly to zero before a mishandled shotgun snap seemingly ended the game and sent Tennessee players streaming onto the field in jubilation. The celebration was cut short when officials ruled the Vols had 13 defensive players on the field when the ball was snapped. Stevan Ridley then bulled into the end zone from less than a yard out for the wild finish. “I don’t know if I have ever had a loss like that,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “They changed personnel and ran a bunch of guys on the field. It was a lot of chaos. “Things happened fast and guys didn’t run off the field. The ball was snapped pretty quickly, and so we lose the game. I have never hurt like this before.” Jordan Jefferson had an 83-yard TD run on LSU’s first offensive play, but UT’s defense limited the Tigers after that, forcing four turnovers including three interceptions. Tennessee played without a turnover for the second game in a row. “Our guys fought and fought,” Dooley said. “We played great on special teams, we got turnovers and every time things went bad we kept sticking with it. It was a great football game.” Tennessee was in the game the whole way despite playing in its first road contest of the season. Tauren Poole’s 1-yard dive over the pile helped the Vols to a 7-7 tie at halftime. Matt Simms’ 3-yard touchdown run put the Vols in the lead with 11:34 left in the fourth quarter. The first interception of LaMarcus Thompson’s career in the Vols’ end zone put Tennessee in position to bury the Tigers in a hole with another score, but the Tigers’ defense got a critical stop on fourth-and-1 at the LSU 31. Poole topped 100 yards for the third time in 2010 with a 109-yard performance. Gerald Jones returned from a three-game absence after nursing a hand in-

REVIEW
Bulldogs bite Vols early & often in 41-14 decision at Athens ATHENS, Ga. -- Aaron Murray ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more scores as Georgia snapped a four-game losing streak and defeated Tennessee 41-14 in a tough homecoming for Volunteers coach Derek Dooley. UT made this one easy on the Bulldogs, turning it over three times, giving up four sacks and falling behind 17-0 in the first quarter. “We ran into a motivated team today,” Dooley said of Georgia, which entered the game with a 1-4 record. “We got affected on the road and couldn’t keep our composure. We are not going to win with those types of turnovers.” Murray was 17 of 25 for 266 yards passing and ran seven times for 41 yards. A.J. Green had six catches for 96 yards and a touchdown. Georgia scored first when Murray raced nearly untouched for a 35-yard touchdown. Then it was time for Tennessee to start making mistakes. Matt Simms lofted a pass that was deflected and picked off by Bacarri Rambo, who managed to get one foot down just before he flew through the bench area and actually leaped over the famous hedge that surrounds the field. The first of the turnovers led to Blair Walsh’s 42yard field goal. On the ensuing kickoff, Eric Gordon had the ball knocked loose and Derek Owens recovered at the Tennessee 41. Murray struck right away, hooking up with Green on a 33-yard pass. After King was thrown for a loss, Murray hooked up with Rantavious Wooten on a 9-yard touchdown to give the Bulldogs a 17-point cushion. “That’s what we expected Georgia to be like at the beginning of the season,” Dooley said. “But I was disappointed in how we competed.” Tennessee’s only bright spot in the first half came after Simms appeared to headed for yet another sack, but managed to slip away from two defenders and loft a 38-yard touchdown pass to Justin Hunter. But any hope of the Vols rallying was snuffed out when Green hauled in a 22-yard touchdown pass down the middle that made it 24-7. Walsh added a 20-yard field goal for a 27-7 halftime lead. Just about everything went Georgia’s way. On the opening possession of the second half, Murray spun away from a would-be tackler in the backfield, took off running again to his left and managed to stick the ball 124
THE WRAPUP • Justin Hunter became the first Vols receiver with 100 yards in a game since Robert Meachem had 145 against Kentucky in 2004. • Matt Simms’ streak of pass attempts without an interception was snapped at 72. • Rajion Neal’s first career catch was a 58-yarder from Simms that led to Tauren Poole’s third-quarter TD. Neal finished with two catches for 70 yards. • True freshman quarterback Tyler Bray saw his first meaningful action, entering the game in the fourth quarter and completing 8 of 12 passes for 81 yards. • Georgia controlled the clock for 34:33 to UT’s 25:27. • Chad Cunningham contributed a season-long punt of 55 yards in the second quarter.

Trent Richardson’s 65-yard touchdown run and 5-yard touchdown reception were part of 28 unanswered second-half points as No. 7 Alabama beat Tennessee 41-10 at Neyland Stadium. The Vols seemed ready for another close game against the Crimson Tide, this time under first-year coach Derek Dooley, who was facing former boss Nick Saban. Dooley was part of Saban’s coaching staff for seven seasons at LSU and the Miami Dolphins. Alabama, which had won 21 consecutive over unranked opponents, came out of halftime with only a 13-10 lead after a sluggish first half. But the Tide wasted no time in the third quarter, getting three straight first downs on its opening drive before Mark Ingram pushed the ball 1 yard for the touchdown for a 20-10 lead. The Vols attempted to pressure the Crimson Tide’s running game by blitzing and pressuring quarterback Greg McElroy, but the effort wore down a team plagued by a lack of depth. McElroy completed 21 of 32 for 264 yards, mostly to receiver Julio Jones. “We watched the film and the film says they throw it,” Dooley said. “They threw for 326. We struggled to stop it.” Richardson and Ingram had just 91 yards rushing at halftime, but added 96 yards on the ground in the third quarter, including Richardson’s touchdown and a pair of 1-yard scoring runs by Ingram. Richardson finished with 119 yards on 12 carries, and Ingram had 88 yards on 14 runs. “We fought them pretty hard for 30 minutes and were scrapping and fighting,” Dooley said. “The third quarter, obviously, was the difference.” For their part, the Volunteers had a few shots to keep the game competitive in the second half. Matt Simms led a long drive that eventually stalled at the Alabama 35 after three straight run plays, and Michael Palardy missed a 52-yard field goal attempt that could have cut the Crimson Tide’s lead to a touchdown. Simms drove the Vols the length of the field when they got the ball back after Richardson’s touchdown, but Robert Lester stepped in front of a would-be touchdown pass to Gerald Jones and took the ball to the Vols 20. Simms finished 12 for 22 for 117 yards and an interception, but no touchdowns. “I think Matt did some really good things,” Dooley said. “He just had a couple of bad decisions.” Tennessee got the first score for the first time since

REVIEW
Vols rally from 14-point deficit before Gamecocks strike twice in 4th COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Alshon Jeffery hauled in a 70yard touchdown catch to help South Carolina escape a Tennessee comeback and remain in control of the SEC East. Jeffery caught a routine pass over the middle with the game tied at 24, moved toward the right sideline and outran several Vol defenders to give the Gamecocks the lead in an eventual 38-24 victory. “The worst that should have come from that play was a first down for 12 yards, but that’s what great players do,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “That’s what impact, game-changing players do. If you look at the fourth quarter, who took over? Nos. 1 and 21, and that’s what great players do.” Jeffery, who wears the No. 1 jersey, was joined by freshman tailback Marcus Lattimore, who wears No. 21, as the offensive stars for the Gamecocks. Jeffery finished with 3 catches for 87 yards and his winning TD reception, while Lattimore rushed 29 times for a career-high 184 yards and another score. The Vols had rallied from a 14-point deficit on a pair of touchdown passes from backup quarterback Tyler Bray to tie the game at 24-24. To spark the comeback, Tennessee pulled off its first successful fake punt since 2004 when Chad Cunningham ran for 25 yards on fourth-and-10. On the next play, Bray connected with Denarius Moore on a 30yard scoring pass to pull within a touchdown. Bray and Moore were at it again on Tennessee’s next series. The two combined for a 64-yard reception to the Gamecocks 2 and, after a personal foul penalty pushed the Vols back, Bray hit Gerald Jones for a 17-yard touchdown to tie it up at 24-all. Bray, playing in his first meaningful action, told his teammates not to hang their heads. “I came back in the second half and said, ‘Hey guys, lets go’ and started throwing it to the playmakers,” said Bray, who also threw an interception that defensive end Devin Taylor returned 24 yards for a touchdown. Moore was Tennessee’s offensive star, finishing the game with 228 receiving yards on just six receptions. The senior’s previous game high was 86 at the 2008 Outback Bowl against Wisconsin. The teams were tied 10-10 at halftime when UT turned the ball over twice early in the third quarter. South Carolina capitalized both times with easy touchdowns to take its 24-10 advantage. “It is impossible to have a worse start in the third 126
THE WRAPUP • Herman Lathers and LaMarcus Thompson tied for UT’s tackle honors with seven apiece. Lathers added a sack, another tackle for loss and a QB hurry. • Nick Reveiz intercepted the first pass of his career to thwart a South Carolina scoring chance on the game’s opening drive. • Four of Gerald Jones’ six receptions converted third downs and kept Tennessee drives alive. • Quarterback Matt Simms opened the game 6-of-6 for 119 yards. • Denarius Moore’s 228 receiving yards were second in the UT history books to Kelley Washington’s 256 against LSU in 2001.

MEMPHIS -- Freshman quarterback Tyler Bray, starting his first game for Tennessee, threw for 325 yards and five touchdowns to lead the Volunteers to a 50-14 victory over Memphis. The victory snapped a four-game October losing streak for Tennessee, which was never threatened after the first quarter. Bray, who took over the helm one week earlier in relief of junior Matt Simms, picked apart the young Memphis secondary from the start. “It was obviously a great first half by the team,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “We outmatched them, and we did what we should do. It’s been awhile since we got a win, so it was a nicer scene in the locker room.” Tauren Poole rushed for 101 yards, and scored twice -- once on a 21-yard run and another on a 9-yard pass from Bray. The Vols would end the night with 510 yards of offense, including 379 through the air. Memphis actually scored first, but Tennessee’s 50 consecutive points matched UT’s largest scoring output of the season. Ryan Williams connected on 18 of 27 passes for 221 yards for the Tigers. The bulk of Bray’s statistics came in the first half as he completed 17 of 28 passes for 308 yards and all five of his touchdown passes. That helped the Vols carry a 40-7 lead into halftime. “He played well, obviously,” Dooley said. “But we outmatched them on the perimeter. Let’s not get too excited is what I’m saying. He did what he should have done -- throw and catch.” Tennessee already had 398 yards of offense at the break. Bray was spreading out the scoring passes, hitting Poole and Justin Hunter (42 yards) for touchdowns in the first quarter. The second quarter scoring passes were to Denarius More (14 yards), Da’Rick Rogers (22 yards) and Gerald Jones (9 yards). Michael Palardy added field goals of 24 and 32 yards for Tennessee, which scored on every possession. except its first, in the half. For his efforts, Bray was named the SEC’s Freshman of the Week. The Vols held the Tigers to 117 yards of offense, including only 8 yards rushing in the opening 30 minutes. Memphis finished the game with 308 yards of total offense. Midway through the third quarter, Simms re-

Resurgent Vols overwhelm Rebels with two pick-sixes, scoring onslaught Tyler Bray threw three touchdown passes, two of them to Justin Hunter, and Tennessee returned two pass interceptions for touchdowns to capture its first Southeastern Conference win of the season with a 52-14 victory over Mississippi. It also was Derek Dooley’s first SEC win as Tennessee’s coach and first streak of two wins. The Vols have never gone a season without an SEC victory and have won at least three conference games every season since 1977. Tauren Poole added a pair of late touchdown runs as UT snapped a six-game losing streak against SEC West opponents. “It was just a phenomenal effort by our players,” Dooley said. “We were focused. We had our best week of practice and it just showed.” On Tennessee’s first play from scrimmage, Bray attempted a pass to Gerald Jones that was tipped by Mississippi’s Jonathan Cornell right into the hands of Justin Hunter. Hunter had 80 yards of green space and took it all the way to the end zone. The Vols were in control the whole game, thanks to Bray’s passing. Tennessee had only seven yards on the ground in the first half but countered it with 265 yards by air. By the end of the game, Tennessee had outgained Ole Miss 441 yards to 295 on offense. Bray finished 18-of-34 with 323 yards. In two games as the starter, Bray has completed 37-of-67 for 648 yards and eight touchdowns without turning the ball over. Hunter had 114 yards on three catches and Poole had 107 yards on 12 carries. Ole Miss couldn’t get its offense going with Masoli being pressured by the Vols’ defensive line all day. The Rebels entered having given up only seven sacks in eight games, but UT took Masoli down twice and sacked backup Nathan Stanley once. Tennessee took a 21-0 lead with 2:33 left in the first quarter when Eric Gordon picked off a pass by Masoli at the Rebels 46 and ran it back for a touchdown. Prentiss Waggner returned another Masoli interception for a score, his third touchdown on an interception return this season, setting a UT record. “It’s a big honor,” Waggner said. “I really didn’t know about the record until you guys told me. I think it’s all because of the grace of God that I got that interception and got it into the end zone.” 128
THE WRAPUP • Tennessee 52 points were the most scored by the Vols in a regulation SEC game since 2003. • The Bray-to-Hunter TD was Tennessee’s first touchdown on the opening play from scrimmage since Erik Ainge connected with Arian Foster to begin the 2007 contest at Kentucky. • The interception returns for touchdowns by Eric Gordon and Prentiss Waggner were the third and fourth for UT this season. • Returning from a five-game injury absence, Daniel Lincoln kicked a 43-yard field goal that was his eighth consecutive made field goal to begin the season, tying his own school record.

NASHVILLE -- Tauren Poole rushed for 99 yards and the game-clinching touchdown, and Tennessee kept its bowl hopes alive with a 24-10 win over Vanderbilt. The Commodores threatened with a late touchdown, but Tennessee sent Vanderbilt to its sixth straight loss when Poole took advantage of a failed onside kick to rip off a 28-yard touchdown run with 1:11 remaining. “I knew it’d be tough,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “We had opportunities to put the game away and didn’t capitalize. Tyler [Bray] struggled with decision-making and you have to give Vanderbilt a lot of credit for that.” Tennessee won its third consecutive game for the first time since 2007. Bray threw for 232 yards but struggled with two interceptions, his first real adversity since taking over as starter three weeks ago. That didn’t stop the Volunteers from beating the Commodores for the fifth straight time and 27th of 28 in the series. “With all of the mistakes, we still held them to 10 points and found a way to win,” Dooley said. “That’s all that matters.” As expected in a game featuring the SEC East’s two one-win teams, neither squad was particularly sharp. Bray got off to a fast start, completing nine of his first 10 passes to give the Vols a 14-0 lead midway through the second quarter. He threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Justin Hunter in the first quarter and a 20-yard scoring pass to Denarius Moore midway in the second. But Bray killed Tennessee’s next two drives with interceptions, and then had trouble connecting with his receivers the rest of the way, finishing 16-of-27. “Second half, they made a great adjustment and had a lot of movement with their defensive line and linebackers,” said Gerald Jones, who caught six passes for 80 yards. “It made it hard for our offensive linemen, but our defense stepped up for us.” While the offense struggled to find consistency, the defense took advantage of several Vanderbilt miscues. UT defensive tackle Gerald Williams was in on several big plays. The senior had eight tackles, including a sack, and also blocked a Commodores field goal try. For his efforts, the SEC named Williams its Defensive Lineman of the Week. Vanderbilt quarterbacks threw two interceptions

Vols extend streak to 26 over Wildcats, earn bowl trip after flawless month Tyler Bray threw for 354 yards and two touchdowns as Tennessee extended its winning streak over Kentucky to 26 straight games to become bowl eligible with a 24-14 victory at Neyland Stadium. After losing four games in October, the Vols were perfect in their four November games. They also upheld the longest active streak in a series between two major college teams, one that’s survived 10 coaches on the two squads and is older than any player on either side’s roster. “It’s hard to describe how proud I am of this football team,” UT head coach Derek Dooley said. “Sitting there at 2-6 and people are talking about us being the worst football team in Tennessee history, and nobody in this organization flinched. I’m real proud of that.” Denarius Moore caught one of Bray’s touchdown passes and had 205 yards receiving to become the only Vols receiver in history to have more than 200 yards receiving in two games in either a season or career. Moore had 228 yards in an Oct. 30 loss to South Carolina. “It’s a blessing,” Moore said. “It’s an honor to have this feeling right now.” Kentucky tied the game at 14 with 10:10 left in the third quarter when Mike Hartline hit Tyler Robinson on a 2-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-1. The Wildcats got the ball back on the next drive when Bray threw one of his two interceptions in the game to Mychal Bailey in the Kentucky end zone. They couldn’t capitalize, and Tennessee drove 73 yards and got a 2-yard touchdown run by Tauren Poole on its ensuing drive to take the lead. Daniel Lincoln kicked a 36-yard field goal with 9:19 in the fourth quarter to pad the margin. Hartline struggled to connect with his receivers late but finished 31-of-44 for 272 yards, the touchdown and an interception. Randall Cobb had 13 catches for 116 yards but did not score a touchdown for the first game all season. Derrick Locke ran 24 times for 97 yards, but only eight of those yards came after halftime. Kentucky appeared poised to take a 14-point lead late in the first quarter after putting together a 16-play, 78-yard drive. But Locke fumbled at the Vols 1 and Tennessee’s Nick Reveiz recovered in the end zone. “That ball just squirted out right in front of me,” Reveiz said. “All I know is that when I saw that ball, I was getting it. No one else was getting it.” 130
THE WRAPUP • Kentucky native Luke Stocker kept his streak alive as the only Vol with a reception in every game this season. Stocker finished with 5 catches for 55 yards. • Michael Palardy rushed 16 yards with Tennessee’s second successful fake punt this year. • Marsalis Teague and Janzen Jackson both set career bests for tackles to lead the Vols with 11 apiece. • Tyler Bray completed 20 of 38 passes for 354 yards -- all career highs -- and was named SEC Freshman of the Week for the third time in November. • Denarius Moore made all seven of his catches for 205 yards and a TD in the second and third quarters. • The Vols finished the regular season with 17 interceptions, tied for second best in the SEC and tied for ninth nationally. • Tennessee averaged 99,781 fans for seven home games at Neyland Stadium.

NASHVILLE -- Casey Barth kicked a 23-yard field goal in the second overtime to send North Carolina past Tennessee 30-27 in a Music City Bowl that will be remembered much more for the crazy finish of regulation than how it eventually ended. The finish to regulation, with what looked like a win turning into a double-overtime loss, was eerily similar to Tennessee’s loss at LSU nearly three months earlier. Both times, a do-over of the game’s final play turned the decision. Barth kicked a 39-yard field goal after officials reviewed what had been the final play of the game and decided to penalize the Tar Heels for having “more than 11 men” on the field. The officiating crew also announced T.J. Yates had spiked the ball with 1 second left. That allowed Barth to run out and kick the field goal that tied it at 20. Tennessee was stunned at the sudden switch that cost the Vols an apparent bowl victory to cap Derek Dooley’s first season. Tyler Bray threw a 25-yard TD in the first overtime, but he was picked off to end the Vols’ last chance in the second OT. The Vols lost to LSU on Oct. 2 when they got caught having too many defenders, giving the Tigers another chance to pull out a 16-14 win. “It was chaos again,” Dooley said. This will hurt much more. Tennessee had the home-field advantage with LP Field painted orange from top to bottom, and the Vols’ fans had been celebrating ever since Bray’s 8-yard TD pass to Justin Hunter put them up 20-17 with 5:16 left. But Donte Paige-Moss blocked Daniel Lincoln’s extra point, and that provided the edge North Carolina needed to force overtime. Tennessee had a chance to clinch the victory when the Vols got the ball back with 1:36 left, but punted it back to North Carolina with 31 seconds remaining to set up the bizarre finish. Everyone was on the field after the clock appeared to run out when North Carolina got caught -- and flagged -- with too many men on the field. A handful of Tar Heels were running toward the sideline when T.J. Yates snapped the ball with the holder behind him as if preparing for a field-goal attempt. The Vols started celebrating with the Tar Heels dejected. Officials suddenly announced that the end was under review. They announced the replay

a look at ut’s 72 all-americans...
Gene McEver
Bobby Dodd
Gene McEver was “the best player I ever coached ... the best I ever saw,” said Gen. Robert R. Neyland. That explains his role as a scoring machine during the 1929 season. In the final game of the regular season, he broke the goal line for five touchdowns and scored three extra points against South Carolina. The outburst helped him lead the nation in scoring with a school-record 130 points as the Vols’ halfback. It was also the season in which McEver became the first Tennessee football player to reach All-America status, garnering a unanimous decision.
Bobby Dodd was the centerpiece of the “Hack and Mack” backfield that featured Buddy Hackman and Gene McEver, expanding the quarterback role like never before. It was his senior year in which “The Dodger” showed his versatility in a 13-0 win against Vanderbilt. Dodd finished with 14 punts for a 42-yard average, had nine carries for 39 yards, was 7-of-12 passing for 159 yards and two touchdowns and intercepted two passes. On the afternoon, Dodd gained 212 all-purpose yards, collecting all but 14 of Tennessee’s team total of 226. The Vols finished 9-1, and Dodd’s dominance on the gridiron earned him 1930 All-America honors.

Bob Suffridge
Abe Shires
Bob Dobelstein
Herman Hickman made people notice him, and it paid off. As a guard in the Vols’ trenches, it was his dominating performance during the 1931 Charity Bowl where Hickman caught the eye of the national press. In the early stages against New York University, the Violets had the ball on Tennessee’s 5-yard line preparing to score. But on four consecutive plays, Hickman single-handedly pushed NYU back 18 yards to the 23. The performance forced sportswriters into adjusting their All-America teams, adding Hickman’s name.
In 1938, Bowden Wyatt captained the Gen. Robert R. Neyland-led troops to an 11-0 season while playing right end on a loaded Volunteers team that included Hall of Fame names such as Molinski, Suffridge and Cafego in the days of the two-way player. The Vols had six shutouts on the season. The final shutout capped the year with Wyatt manning the defensive line and kicking a field goal in Tennessee’s 17-0 Orange Bowl victory over Oklahoma, the Vols’ first official bowl game. That 1938 season, Tennessee outscored its opponents 283-16 with Wyatt on the defensive line.
Bob Suffridge is the Vols’ only three-time All-American, earning the honors from 193840. UT collected a perfect 30-0 record during his career. His sophomore year, the speedy Suffridge anchored a dominant line that paved the way to an 11-0 finish. The 1939 season saw Suffridge help lead Tennessee to another undefeated regular season, one in which the Vols’ defense did not allow a single point. Suffridge’s blocking and tackling helped pave the way for a third consecutive undefeated regular season and a third consecutive SEC title his senior year.
Tackle Abe Shires earned his share of glory as a member of the best lines ever at Tennessee. Shires earned All-America status his junior year of 1939 by paving the road for the legendary backfield of Bob Foxx, Leonard Coffman, George Cafego and Sam Bartholomew. Shires was part of the unprecedented and unparalleled three-year stretch in which the Vols went undefeated in three consecutive regular seasons. His blocking and tackling helped Tennessee to outscore its opponents 837-75 and be crowned SEC champions 1938, 1939 and 1940.
Manning the offensive and defensive lines after World War II was Bob Dobelstein at right guard, earning All-America honors as a junior in 1944. It was also the year he served as captain of the team, the only junior to do so until the 2003 season. Dobelstein helped lead the Vols to a 7-1-1 record in 1944, completing an unbeaten regular season before losing to Southern California in the Rose Bowl. Tennessee went 8-1 the following year to set the table for an SEC title run the year after Dobelstein departed.
Beattie Feathers
George Cafego
Ed Molinski
Bob Foxx
Dick Huffman
Many consider Beattie Feathers to rank among the greatest to ever grace the field at Tennessee. And rightfully so, considering the mark he left on the Vols’ program. In 1933, Feathers sealed his place in Tennessee history, being named the Southeastern Conference MVP. He was an All-American in 1933, capping his glorious backfield career on The Hill in which the Vols had two undefeated seasons and went 25-3-2 overall. It propelled him to professional greatness in which he became the first NFL player to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a single season, averaging a record 9.9 yards per carry.
Renowned for his blocking and running skills, George “Bad News” Cafego also played safety and quarterback. On special teams, he returned kicks and punts while also handling the punting duties. In his career, Cafego rushed for 1,589 yards and threw for 550 yards. The Vols got their first major bowl win, 17-0 over Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl, with Cafego in the backfield. The 1938 team finished 11-0 and Cafego was SEC Player of the Year. The 1939 squad shut out all of its opponents during the regular season before losing to Southern California in the Rose Bowl with Cafego sidelined by injury.
During the days of the two-way player, Ed Molinski set the standard for linemen. The 1939 team is the one that perhaps is remembered best. The Molinski-led defensive line set records galore for holding teams at bay, including the fewest yards allowed (1,023), lowest average per play allowed (2.2 yards) and lowest average per game allowed (103.3 yards). That team also did not allow a single point, a modern NCAA record. Molinski was named All-America in 1939 and 1940. Tennessee teams were a combined 31-2 with Molinski in the trenches, and the Vols finished first or tied for first in the SEC each year.
Bob Foxx manned the backfield during Robert R. Neyland’s second stint as coach of the Vols and earned All-America status his senior year of 1940. Foxx earned three letters at Tennessee and was part of three consecutive SEC championship teams from 1938-40. Tennessee was crowned national champion in 1938 and 1940. Throughout Foxx’s three-year career, he led the rushing attack that allowed the Vols to go unbeaten and untied in each regular season. The 1938 season was the year in which Tennessee held its opponents scoreless during the regular season. Foxx was voted Knoxville’s greatest athlete of the first halfcentury by the Knoxville Journal readers.
Dick Huffman played right tackle on the 1942 Vols before returning to Tennessee in 1946 for a position at left tackle. He was All-America after the four-year break from football. With Huffman on the line, the Vols made a full return to prominence in the South, winning the 1946 SEC championship behind a 9-2 record. Huffman and the defensive line held five opponents to seven points or less, collecting two shutouts in the closing years of the two-way player. Huffman was one of only two players to earn All-America honors in six seasons following World War II.

Ted Daffer
Hank Lauricella
John Michels
Darris McCord
Kyle “Buddy” Cruze
Guard Ted Daffer locked down the middle of the defensive line during a dominant time for Tennessee football. He was the only two-time All-America from the 1950 or 1951 squads. He helped Tennessee to an 11-1 record and a national championship from one poll in 1950, losing only the second game of the season to Mississippi State. Daffer returned the following season to help the squad become consensus national champions in 1951, going undefeated in the regular season before losing in the Sugar Bowl.
Hank Lauricella was “Mr. Everything” during one of the most prominent stretches in UT football history. In the 1951 Cotton Bowl against Texas, Lauricella set up Tennessee’s first score with a 75-yard run – perhaps the most memorable run in school history. The next season he was named All-SEC and AllAmerica, averaging a school-record 7.9 yards per carry in leading the Vols to a 10-0 regular season. Lauricella finished second in Heisman Trophy voting and Tennessee was named national champion prior to its Sugar Bowl appearance.
John Michels was the “best blocking guard in the United States,” Gen. Robert R. Neyland once said. Michels guided the 1951 Vols to their first consensus national championship. Tennessee rushed for 3,068 yards, scored 40 touchdowns on the ground and rushed for 306.8 yards per game – all school records. He was an All-SEC selection in 1951 and received both all-conference and All-America accolades in 1952. During Michels’ senior season, he was awarded the Jacobs Trophy given to the SEC’s best blocker. He is one of the 13 Vols to win the award all-time.
Darris McCord captained the 1954 squad that went 4-6 under second-year coach Harvey Robinson. The tackle played on both the offensive and defensive lines after Robinson switched back to the old two-way player system. Robinson looked for leadership from McCord, and found it in a steady blocker on the offensive end and a brute tackler in contrast. His hard work and grit earned him All-America status from the Football Writers Association of America in 1954 before embarking on a professional career.
Kyle “Buddy” Cruze re-established the wide receiver at Tennessee as coach Bowden Wyatt reconstructed the Vols’ program with a 10-1 season – undefeated in the regular season – and an SEC title. Cruze was just the second receiver to reach double figures in receptions in Tennessee history when he caught 12 balls his junior year for 232 yards and a 19.3-yard average. In 1956, he became the first Tennessee receiver to catch 20 passes and the first to top 300 yards, finishing with 357 to receive All-America status.
Bud Sherrod
Bill Pearman
Doug Atkins
Johnny Majors
Bill Johnson
Bud Sherrod was an All-America defensive end on the 1950 Vols’ squad that went 11-1 and earned a national title from one poll. Many believed it was an even better squad than the 1951 consensus national champions. The quick Sherrod made for an extreme terror on the defensive line in contrast to his approximate 6-foot, 185-pound size. The twotime All-SEC selection helped the Vols shut down the Texas offense and hold on to a 20-14 win in the 1951 Cotton Bowl to cap the season. It was Tennessee’s first bowl win in eight years.
Bill Pearman was one of three All-America selections from Tennessee’s 1951 consensus national championship season. The two-year starter’s position at right defensive tackle helped the Vols hold their opponents to 116 points on the season. Tennessee’s defense pitched five shutouts in 10 games during the undefeated regular season and helped the Vols hold a No. 1 ranking for six weeks of the year heading into the Sugar Bowl. Tennessee was a combined 33-9-1 with Pearman in uniform, 28 of those wins coming in the final three years of his career.
Doug Atkins is considered by many to be the greatest defensive lineman in football history. Atkins was named All-SEC his last two years with the Vols, in addition to being named AllAmerica in 1952. The Vols went 29-3-1 and were crowned national champions in 1951 with Atkins on defense. After wreaking havoc at Tennessee, Atkins went on to play professionally with Cleveland, Chicago and New Orleans, spending 12 seasons with the Bears. He is the only Tennessee player to ever be voted into both the College Football Hall of Fame (inducted 1985) and the Professional Football Hall of Fame (inducted 1982).
Johnny Majors was awarded his second SEC Player of the Year honor in 1956. His domination on the gridiron as the UT shotcaller was unparalleled in the South, earning him unanimous All-America selections. The national attention Majors received resulted in his finishing second on the Heisman Trophy ballot. He collected 1,622 yards on the ground and threw for 1,135 yards, scoring 16 touchdowns in all during his career. With his leg, he booted 83 punts for a 39.1-yard average. He also returned 36 punts for 438 yards and ran back 15 kickoffs for 344 yards.
Bill Johnson helped usher in the Bowden Wyatt coaching era with three consecutive winning seasons and an SEC championship. After a 6-3-1 season, Johnson was Wyatt’s starting guard in 1956 and 1957. The lineman pushed Tennessee to the national spotlight his junior season as the Vols finished with an undefeated regular season and won the SEC as the nation’s second-ranked team. But the next year, Johnson earned national notoriety himself when he was given AllAmerica status. On the defensive side, Johnson helped hold Tennessee opponents to 109 pass attempts for just 501 yards on the season, both school records.

Ron Widby
Albert Dorsey
Charles Rosenfelder
Steve DeLong made a name for himself through his toughness on the line. His junior year at Tennessee, he received All-SEC and AllAmerica honors. The 1964 season, however, was DeLong’s best. He repeated as All-SEC and All-America his senior year as captain of the team and his work in the trenches led to winning the Outland Trophy as the nation’s most outstanding interior lineman.
Paul Naumoff earned All-America honors his senior year of 1966 after moving from defensive end to linebacker under coach Doug Dickey. He entered the season as a favorite for national notoriety on the line, but volunteered to change positions after linebacker Tom Fisher’s sudden death earlier in the year. Helping the Vols to consecutive eight-win seasons, Naumoff is best remembered for tackling Syracuse’s Larry Csonka in the 1966 Gator Bowl to keep the superstar from scoring and preserving Tennessee’s 18-12 win.
Ron Widby wasn’t just a punter for the Vols’ gridiron squad. He also lettered in football, basketball, baseball and golf. But football was where he earned All-America status his senior year of 1966. Widby punted merely 38 times his senior year for 2,104 yards. His average of 43.8 yards secured his spot as the NCAA statistical champion. He punted 142 times in his three-year career for 6,002 yards. He averaged 42.3 yards per kick for his career.
Albert Dorsey roamed the defensive backfield for the Vols as a starter in 1967, the year Tennessee went 9-2 and won the SEC championship as the second-ranked team in the nation. That was the same year Dorsey was named an All-American for his defensive performances. Among his greatest was the 1967 version of the Third Saturday in October. Tennessee entered the game in Birmingham with their first national ranking of the season at seventh, while Alabama was sixth. Dorsey picked off three passes that afternoon in leading the Vols to a 24-13 win.
Charles Rosenfelder was a regular with the Vols’ offensive front and started all three years on the varsity squad. As a freshman in 1965, Rosenfelder made the All-SEC freshman team and carried his successes as a blocker to the varsity level. He earned a consensus All-America selection his senior year of 1968 by becoming the backbone of an offensive line that had lost four starters from the previous season. His line leadership resulted in tailback Richard Pickens rushing for 736 yards in 1968, the most for a Tennessee back since Hank Lauricella in 1951.
Frank Emanuel
Austin Denney
Bob Johnson
Richmond Flowers
Steve Kiner
Continuing the tradition of stout linebackers, Frank Emanuel fulfilled the role valiantly for two years under coach Doug Dickey, earning All-America status his senior year of 1965. Emanuel started his junior and senior seasons, Dickey’s first two years commanding the Vols in which he eliminated the two-way player. That’s when Emanuel flourished as the Vols went 8-1-2 and beat Tulsa in the Bluebonnet Bowl. Tennessee’s defense allowed only 98 points that season. The Vols haven’t held their opponents to fewer points in a season since. In eight of the 11 games, Emanuel and the Vols held their opponent to a touchdown or less.
Austin Denney set the standard for today’s Tennessee tight end with his versatility, speed and fight. But he wasn’t always a tight end. Denney moved from fullback to the line his junior year partly because of his 6-foot-2, 227-pound body. He established the position as another offensive threat for the Vols. By the end of his senior year in 1966, the co-captain was All-SEC and All-American after catching 21 passes for 264 yards. His seven touchdowns were even more impressive as the big man led the team in scoring. Denney caught nine scores in his career to set a new school record at the time.
Center Bob Johnson left UT as one of the most decorated athletes in school history. Doug Dickey’s first recruit struggled making snaps his sophomore year after moving over from the tackle position, but rebounded to garner All-America status in 1966. As captain of the 1967 Vols, Johnson lived up to his preseason hype by earning his second All-SEC and All-America nods with unanimous votes. Johnson was awarded the Jacobs Trophy, given to the SEC’s best blocker, and the Birmingham Touchdown Club named him the SEC’s Most Outstanding Lineman. In addition, Johnson finished sixth in the Heisman voting as a center.
The versatile Richmond Flowers was one of the most exciting athletes to come to Tennessee, and left with the same title. He garnered All-America honors his junior season of 1967 as wingback for the Vols. He only carried the ball 10 times for 24 yards, but led Tennessee with 41 receptions for 585 yards and four touchdowns before returning as tailback as a senior. His junior year was also his best at returning kicks with 173 total yards. Flowers finished with a career average of 21.6 yards on kickoff returns. A stellar track star, Flowers won one NCAA title and six SEC championships.
Steve Kiner’s outstanding play at linebacker fits the tradition Tennessee holds for the position. And while playing for the Volunteers, Kiner developed a tradition of his own – domination on the field. His junior and senior seasons, Kiner took the nation by storm. He was named All-SEC and All-America in 1968 and 1969, making him Doug Dickey’s first player to twice earn consensus recognition. Kiner was SEC Defensive Player of the Year thanks in part to Tennessee’s 41-14 victory over Alabama in 1969. The linebacker had five sacks, 11 tackles with five assists, four quarterback hurries, an interception and a forced fumble.

Jack Reynolds
Bobby Majors
Ricky Townsend
Eddie Brown
It was the year between Doug Dickey’s two SEC championships and the first season played on Neyland Stadium’s artificial turf that Jim Weatherford earned All-America honors. Weatherford was one of the six Vols on the 1968 squad who would be named AllAmericans during their careers. A defensive back, Weatherford helped the Tennessee defense post two shutouts and hold three other opponents to just a touchdown as the Vols went 8-2-1 on the year. The twoyear starter was part of the initial stages of Tennessee’s dominant defensive era.
When Jack Reynolds made the move from fullback to linebacker his sophomore year, he became an instant success for the Vols. That success was proven his senior year of 1969 when, he received All-SEC and All-America honors. “Hacksaw,” as he was known during his tenure on The Hill, combined with fellow linebacker Steve Kiner to sow the seeds of the infamous 1970 defense that picked off 36 passes. But Reynolds’ final year was a special one too, with the defense collecting 30 interceptions.
Bobby Majors could do everything in a football uniform. Majors returned punts all three years of his varsity career, setting school records for career punt returns with 117 and career punt return yardage with 1,163. He also returned kickoffs his All-American year with a 30.1-yard average, the third highest in the program’s history. Majors completed his special teams threat by punting for the Vols in 1970 and 1971. But the defensive backfield was where Majors flourished. His set the school record with 10 interceptions in 1970.
Ricky Townsend’s foot propelled him to AllAmerica status his sophomore and junior seasons after he became the Vols’ first barefoot placekicker. “Coach (Bill) Batttle happened to be watching and he said I was kicking better barefooted, so I’ve done it that way ever since,” Townsend once said. Townsend, a former quarterback and linebacker turned kicker, kicked 33 field goals and 72 extra points in his career for a total of 171 points. His 60 points in 1973 led the Vols in scoring. He also handled kickoff duties, booting long bombs consistently during his tenure.
Eddie Brown earned All-America status in 1973 thanks to his awareness as a defensive back and his illusive punt return ability. Brown collected five picks his last year at Tennessee for 105 return yards to lead the team. The captain was a machine against Kansas. Brown intercepted a pass and returned it 74 yards before being brought down, had his teeth knocked out while blocking a field goal, had consistently long punt returns and played a vital role in stopping a two-point conversion to preserve the Tennessee victory.
Chip Kell
Jackie Walker
Conrad Graham
Jamie Rotella
Larry Seivers
Chip Kell set the standard for blocking guards at Tennessee by becoming a two-time All-American, a two-time Jacobs Trophy winner for being the SEC’s best blocker and a three-time All-SEC member. Kell manned the line that allowed Curt Watson to pace the Vols three straight years, including an 807-yard season in the 1969 SEC title year. In 1970, Kell helped block for the Vols to run for 2,365 yards, the most since 1951. Kell’s protection allowed the Vols to pass for 1,996 yards, the most in school history at that time. The Vols had eight 100-yard rushing games during Kell’s junior and senior seasons.
Jackie Walker refined the role of linebacker at Tennessee, turning it into a hard-hitting, yet sleek, position with his small body and skillful tactics. Walker was a two-time All-American for the Vols his junior and senior years. In 1970, UT’s daunting defense collected 36 interceptions for a seemingly untouchable school record. Walker led the Vols with 82 tackles and 42 assists. He finished his career with 11 interceptions, more than anyone who wasn’t a defensive back during his time. He returned those picks for 281 yards and five touchdowns. The 281 yards ranked fourth at the time on Tennessee’s all-time chart behind three defensive backs – all his teammates.
Conrad Graham was a three-year starter in Tennessee’s secondary during a time which the Vols boasted one of the best pass-coverage defenses in history. Three of the defensive backfield members earned All-America status, including Graham his senior year of 1972. Graham left Tennessee third on the career pass interceptions list with 15. He collected 293 return yards in his three years and scored three touchdowns off turnovers. Graham led the Vols his junior and senior years in interceptions. His All-America year of 1972 saw him pick off seven passes, ranking him fifth on the season pass interceptions list when his career was over.
Jamie Rotella became the sixth Tennessee linebacker to earn All-America status in seven years his senior year of 1972 despite his name missing on preseason predictions. Nobody predicted the greatness of his tackling ability. After making 112 tackles as a sophomore and 111 as a junior, Rotella dominated on the defensive side his senior year and collected 190 total tackles at linebacker. His 413 career tackles were good enough to destroy the school record, although it has since been broken. However, Rotella earned his total in just three years of varsity play. He topped the single-season Tennessee list of tackle assists with 90 in 1972.
Larry Seivers became one of Tennessee’s first consistent receiving threats and finished as the best of his era after leading the Vols in pass-catching yardage all three of his years on the varsity squad. Seivers totaled 347 yards as a sophomore, but exploded in 1975 for 840 yards on 41 receptions. It was the first time any Tennessee receiver topped the 800-yard mark in a season, earning him All-America honors. The following year, Seivers caught 51 passes for 737 yards and was again named All-America.

Bill Mayo’s consistency is what kept him on the field, but his play put him with the All-Americas. A four-year starter for the Vols, he was the only returning starter entering the 1984 season. Despite battling injuries all year, he opened holes for Johnny Jones to run 1,290 yards on the season. Mayo’s name was secure on All-SEC and All-America lists. Mayo finished his career with more starts than any Tennessee player, starting 46 of his 47 games. The record has since been broken, but Mayo remains Tennessee’s Mr. Consistency.
Chris White had one opportunity and made the most of it. As a fifth-year senior in 1985, White made his first career start in the season opener against UCLA as an injury replacement. Three interceptions later, White had secured his place as the Vols’ starter the rest of the season. He had nine interceptions on the season to lead the NCAA. White ended with 62 tackles and three fumble recoveries. His place in the Tennessee secondary that Cinderella season earned him All-America honors as the Vols went on to become SEC champions and defeat Miami in the Sugar Bowl for a 9-1-2 finish.
According to his coach, Johnny Majors, “they don’t come any finer as a college performer than Keith DeLong.” DeLong proved as much his senior year, his second consecutive season of leading the Vols in tackles – he had 159 as a senior and 125 as a junior. Despite the Vols finishing 5-6 in 1988, DeLong earned All-America status and was a finalist for the Butkus Award given annually to the nation’s best collegiate linebacker.
Willie Gault
Reggie White
Tim McGee
Harry Galbreath
Eric Still
Willie Gault was in a class of his own, and his performances spoke for themselves. The speedy receiver earned All-America honors his senior year after hauling in 50 receptions for 668 yards. Gault, also a prolific hurdler and sprinter, finished his career with the Vols holding 12 school records in football and three in track and field. Half of his football records were SEC records as well. He had more total yards in kickoff returns (1,854) than in receiving (1,482) and returned five kickoffs for touchdowns in his career.
In his four years with the Vols, Reggie White collected a school-record 32 sacks in establishing himself as the most prolific pass rusher in Tennessee history. The 1983 team captain drew little publicity until the sixth game of his senior year. By then, his domination was evident. He collected 100 tackles on the season, 72 of them unassisted, and set the school-record with 15 sacks for the year. White’s senior campaign earned him AllSEC and consensus All-America honors.
Tim McGee earned All-America honors his senior year with the Vols by becoming Tennessee’s greatest pass catcher. He caught 50 balls for 947 yards and seven touchdowns while leading the Vols to the 1985 SEC title. McGee finished his career with 123 catches for 2,042 yards and 15 touchdowns, all Tennessee records at the time. He was the Vols’ leading receiver his final two seasons on The Hill, setting a single-season record for receptions with 54 his junior year, a record that has since been broken.
Harry Galbreath was the most dominating and aggressive run blocker Johnny Majors ever coached, according to Tennessee’s former mentor. Perhaps that’s what earned him All-America status his senior year of 1987. In his final year with the Vols, Galbreath won the Jacobs Trophy given to the SEC’s best blocker. He laid the road for Reggie Cobb’s freshman campaign of 1,197 yards on 237 attempts. Galbreath appeared in every game of his four-year stint, including three years as a starter.
Eric Still was a bulldozer on the offensive line for the Vols and helped push the pile for Tennessee to set a school record at the time for total yards per game with an average of 408.5 in 1989. The Vols rushed for 2,701 yards behind the Still’s blocking, the most since the national championship season of 1951. Still was awarded the Jacobs Trophy for the SEC’s top blocker and played in two all-star games. In the classroom, he made Academic All-SEC all four years.

He surpassed his uncle and former Vols punter Craig Colquitt in each category. Colquitt achieved the whopping average his sophomore year when he was ranked second in the nation in average. Colquitt never averaged below 42 yards per kick.

Roland James was an All-America his senior year at Tennessee, concluding a special career for the intelligent and tough defensive back who played with a broken nose his sophomore year and broken thumb as a junior. James spread the wealth during his career rather than exploding in one single season. His freshman year, he totaled 131 total tackles. As a junior, James had seven picks, including a 90-yard touchdown return against Mississippi that ranked third on Tennessee’s longest return list at the time. His senior year cumulated with the AllAmerica nod and his second consecutive AllSEC choice.

Manning the outside of a highly touted offensive line, Antone Davis was rewarded for his time in the trenches, receiving All-America status his senior year. He was also given the Jacob’s Trophy as the SEC’s top blocker in 1990. Davis helped create the holes for tailback Tony Thompson in 1990, allowing Thompson to rush 248 yards against Mississippi State and 236 against Vanderbilt. Thompson went on to gain 1,261 yards on the season thanks to Davis and the line.
Carl Pickens was a staple in the Vols’ offense during his three years and earned national recognition his junior year with an All-America nod in 1991. Pickens caught 49 balls for 817 yards his junior year for an average of 17.9 yards per catch. His 79.73 receiving yards per game led the SEC. Quarterback Andy Kelly hooked up with Pickens for an 87-yard touchdown against Auburn for what was the longest pass play in school history at the time. His numbers the previous year, however, were even better when he had 53 catches for 917 yards. He led the Vols both seasons in receptions and yards.
A middle linebacker and defensive end, Leonard Little earned a reputation for his hard hits and quarterback sacks. Little earned All-America status his senior year of 1997 and was named the Associated Press’ Co-Defensive Player of the Year in the SEC. He had a team-leading 87 tackles and collected 8.5 quarterback sacks in leading the Vols to the 1997 SEC championship. He finished ranked second to Reggie White on the all-time sack list with 28, which included 11 his sophomore year. Little had 10 multi-sack games in his three-year career. He also placed second on the career list of quarterback pressures with 42.
Al Wilson just might have been one of the greatest linebackers in Tennessee history, and his leadership was even more special, acting like a quarterback for the defense. It was unparalleled on The Hill, and it carried over into a season that was much the same. He was the Vols’ only All-America selection from the 1998 undefeated national championship team. The captain ranked third on the team that year with 77 tackles despite missing the three games to injury, the first since he was a freshman. His highlight was a 12-tackle performance against Florida in which he set a school record with three caused fumbles.
Deon Grant tied for the NCAA lead in 1999 with nine interceptions for 167 return yards, propelling him to All-America status his junior year. Grant finished the year with 69 tackles and eight pass breakups. He also had two picks in three different games. Grant left Tennessee after his junior year to go to the NFL, but left his mark as one of the Vols’ all-time great defensive backs. His nine picks in 1999 tied him for second on the single-season interception chart, and he stood fifth on the career list with 14.
Dale Carter
John Becksvoort
Peyton Manning
Cosey Coleman
Raynoch Thompson
Dale Carter came to Tennessee to be a playmaker, and he did just that. In two seasons with the Vols, Carter earned All-America status each year and garnered national recognition as a sticky defensive back and an explosive kick return man. It was his kick-return capabilities that sealed his All-America status in 1990. He led the nation with 507 yards on 17 returns for an average of 29.82 yards per return. He also returned 29 punts for 381 yards, a 13.1-yard average.
John Becksvoort was automatic for Tennessee as a four-year starter, earning AllAmerica status his junior year and setting records with his unique kicking style. It was his junior year of 1993 when Becksvoort hit 59-of-59 extra-point attempts to set Southeastern Conference and Tennessee records. He also led the league in scoring with 95 points. Becksvoort wrapped up his career as one of Tennessee’s most accurate kickers. He was a perfect 161-of-161 on extra-point attempts, setting an NCAA record.
Peyton Manning’s legend will never die. He finished his illustrious career holding 42 NCAA, SEC and Tennessee records. He won the Maxwell Award as the nation’s most outstanding player, the Davey O’Brien National Quarterback Award, the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and Player of the Year honors his senior season, securing his All-America status in 1997. The quarterback became the fourth in NCAA history to pass for 11,000 yards and threw for more than 300 yards in 18 games.
Cosey Coleman earned All-America status his junior year after starting 30 consecutive games at right guard in a three-year span. His 6-foot-5, 315-pound frame helped pave the way for tailbacks Jamal Lewis and Travis Henry in 1999 as the two rushed for 816 and 790 yards, respectively. During Coleman’s career on the line, Tennessee rushed for more than 200 yards 11 times and had a 100-yard rusher 19 times when he started at guard. He was part of an SEC title in 1997 and both conference and national championships in 1998.
Raynoch Thompson dominated the defensive side during his time at Tennessee and earned All-America honors his senior year, one year following the 1998 national championship. Thompson followed his 10 tackles for loss in 1998 by leading the Vols with 87 tackles in 1999 while also totaling seven tackles for loss and three interceptions. He was one of four finalists for the Butkus Award and played in the Delchamps Senior Bowl. The stout tackler started in every game he played on The Hill, totaling 36 in his career.

John Henderson earned back-to-back AllAmerica honors his junior and senior seasons by exploding off the defensive line. His junior year – the year Tennessee set a school record for fewest rushing yards allowed with 817 – he won the Outland Trophy, was a Bronko Nagurski Trophy finalist and received SEC Defensive Player of the Year honors. His 12 sacks ranked third on Tennessee’s singleseason list. He also caused four fumbles and recovered three. He was an Outland finalist and a Lombardi Award semifinalist in 2001 despite a lingering ankle injury.
Continuing a family tradition of punting for the Vols, Dustin Colquitt became the third member of his family to do so. Colquitt earned an All-America selection in 2003 and was a Ray Guy Award finalist for the second consecutive year. He twice earned SEC Special Teams Player of the Week accolades. Colquitt’s 45.9-yard average ranked first in the SEC and fourth nationally, partly due to booming 18 punts for 50 yards or more. Accuracy was another trait, as Colquitt strategically placed 19 punts inside opponents’ 20-yard line, nine of which were inside the 10 and five inside the 5.
Junior college transfer Jesse Mahelona burst onto the Tennessee football scene in a big way in 2004 being named All-America by The Sporting News. Showing an uncanny ability to disrupt opponent offenses, Mahelona had 18.5 tackles for loss to finish sixth on UT’s season TFL chart. He is second on Tennessee ball-carrier loss charts with 13.5. Mahelona recorded multiple sacks in six games in 2004 and had five in an impressive outing against Notre Dame Nov. 6. He was a second team All-SEC selection as named by Associated Press and the league coaches.
Robert Meachem made the most of his one season as a Tennessee starter, setting a school record for receiving yards in a season and earning All-America honors from three different publications. He caught 71 passes for 1,298 yards in 2006 and finished the season leading the SEC in receiving yards per game with 99.8. He is only one of six Volunteers to top the 2,000-yard mark in his career. He ranked fourth all-time in receiving yardage (2,140), fifth in receptions (125) and fifth in receiving touchdowns (17) when he left Rocky Top for the NFL in 2006.
Daniel Lincoln wasted little time in making his mark on Tennessee football. He earned All-America honors from the Football Writers Association of America in 2007, his freshman season on Rocky Top. During the 2007 campaign, the Ocala, Fla., native made 21-of-28 field goal attempts and scored 112 points, which was a school record for points in a season for a kicker and the third-most points in a season overall. His 21 field goals made and 112 points were also school freshman records.

Travis Stephens rose to the occasion his 2001 senior year at Tennessee, becoming the Vols’ first All-America tailback since Johnny Majors. Stephens blasted for 1,464 yards his final year on The Hill. It was the most yards any back had gained in a single season at Tennessee. He also set the record for season attempts with 291 and tied the single-game record with 41 attempts against Arkansas. Stephens topped the 200-yard mark twice and collected more than 100 yards in five other games.
The inspirational leader of the 2005 SBC Cotton Bowl championship squad, Kevin Burnett made his final season as a Vol his best. He was elected team co-captain for the second consecutive year and was named a firstteam All-American and All-SEC selection. He ranked second on the team with 120 tackles and third in the SEC with 9.2 tackles per game. He had a fast start to the 2004 season with eight tackles and a fumble recovery in the win over UNLV. He was named SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors after he set a new career-high with 16 tackles in a 30-28 win over Florida. He led the Vols with six tackles against Texas A&M in the 2005 SBC Cotton Bowl.
Michael Munoz became one of Tennessee’s most decorated Vols in his four seasons on Rocky Top. He earned consensus All-America honors in 2004 after posting 55 intimidation blocks in just nine games played due to injury. He started 46 games in his career and was twice elected a team captain. In 2003, he and teammate Kevin Burnett were named the first junior captains in 59 years. Off the field, he was a 2004 National Football Foundation Scholar-Athlete and earned the Draddy Trophy as the nation’s top scholar-athlete. He was also a three-time SEC Academic Honor Roll selection.
One of the most versatile linemen in Tennessee history, Arron Sears started a total of 37 games in his career at four different positions on the offensive line. Named an All-American by four different publications in 2006, he was also elected team co-captain and named All-SEC for the secondconsecutive year. He posted 71 knockdown blocks during the season and was named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after the Marshall game. Sears’ versatility shined in the 2005 season, when he started at least one game at three different positions on the offensive line and played significant snaps at every spot but center. He was the only Vol named first-team All-SEC.
It didn’t take Eric Berry long to put his name among the all-time Tennessee greats, earning consensus All-America honors in both his sophomore and junior seasons. Berry tied for the national lead in interceptions with seven and set school and SEC records for interception return yards in a season (265, set in 2008) and in a career (494). He finished third on the team with 72 tackles and posted 8.5 tackles for loss and three sacks as well in his sophomore campaign. In 2009, Berry added the Jim Thorpe Award to his resume and was a finalist for the Nagurski and Lott trophies. He was National Defensive Player of the Week twice and was second on the team with 87 tackles.

general robert reese neyland
The history and tradition of Tennessee football began under the tutelage of Gen. Robert Reese Neyland, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame. Neyland came to Tennessee as an ROTC instructor and backfield coach in 1925 and was named head football coach in 1926. From that date, Tennessee was in the college football business to stay. Neyland’s 1939 Vol team was the last to shut out each of its regular season opponents. Over the course of his career, 112 of his 216 opponents failed to score against his Tennessee teams. Tennessee still holds an NCAA record for holding opponents scoreless 71 consecutive quarters. Neyland’s teams won Southern Conference Championships in 1927 and 1932, piling up undefeated streaks of 33 and 28 games along the way, and SEC Championships in 1938, 1939, 1940, 1946 and 1951. In addition Neylandcoached teams won four national championships. The Vols were consensus national champions in 1951, won the Dunkel, Litkenhous, Boand, Houlgate and Poling National Championships in 1938, the Dunkel and Williamson crowns in 1940 and the DeVold and Dunkel crowns in 1950. It was Gene McEver who kicked off the Neyland era with his 98-yard return of the open-
ing kickoff in the 1928 Alabama game, a game the underdog Vols won 15-13. Each of his succeeding eras would be highlighted by similar big plays: Johnny Butler’s 56-yard run against Alabama in 1939 and Lauricella’s 75-yard run against Texas in the 1951 Cotton Bowl. Neyland’s 21-year record at Tennessee was 173 wins, 31 losses and 12 ties. Neyland, who came to Tennessee as an Army captain and left as a brigadier general, brought one of the most efficient single-wing offenses in the country to go with an unyielding defense. He was brought to the head coaching position by Dean Nathan Dougherty with a simple injunction: “Do something about the series with Vanderbilt.” After Neyland’s death in 1962, the University established the Robert R. Neyland Scholarship, academic scholarships awarded to non-athletes, many of whom are National Merit Scholars. The endowment for these scholarships now exceeds $1.5 million and 124 students have been the beneficiary of the awards. The thoroughfare behind the stadium’s South end, once called the river road, is now named Neyland Drive. More recently, the Vol football complex on campus was named for Neyland and Knoxville businessman B. Ray Thompson.

In October 1894, the Athletic Association resolved to drop varsity football and look forward to baseball in the spring. After the humiliating 1893 season (two wins and four imposing defeats), only two athletes willing to admit they had played on the 1893 team returned to campus in 1894. To complicate matters further, the practice field, located just west of the main entrance to the Hill, was being graded and improved. Soon after this decision, W.B. Stokely, a UT senior who transferred from Wake Forest, persuaded a group of students to form a team. Stokely, who was elected captain, gave encouragement and direction to the other players. Even though the institution chose not to be represented officially on the gridiron, Stokely and his unofficial team kept football interest alive during this period when almost certainly it otherwise would have been allowed to lapse completely. These unofficial games, referred to as “The Lost Years” are not included in NCAA statistics or in official University of Tennessee won-lost records.

1917 & 1917: No team world war I The University of Tennessee Athletic Council, chaired by Professor Nathan W. Dougherty, officially suspended varsity football during the World War I years of 1917 and 1918 because the majority of the players were called into military service. In addition, Coach John R. Bender was enlisted as an instructor at Camp John Sevier in Greenville, S.C. During this period without varsity football, two unofficial teams were formed from Army recruits and students. One team represented a training unit called the Fighting Mechanics and another the Student Army Training Corps (SATC).

NEYLAND STADIUM /// SHIELDS-WATKINS FIELD The Home of the Vols got a makeover in 2010, turning one of college football’s meccas into an aesthetic masterpiece. >> The Best Just Got Better
The concrete walls that used to hold up the west side were replaced with brick. Below the press box, six new panels display some of the finest to ever don the Orange and White-- Gen. Robert R. Neyland, Al Wilson, Reggie White, Peyton Manning, Johnny Majors and Doug Atkins. Most noticeable from the outside are the approximately 700,000 bricks that totally transformed the look of the stadium’s north and west sides. Standing in the middle of that transformation is the majestic Gate 21 plaza area. Six lofty archways dominate the entrance, which doubles during the work week as a key campus transportation hub. No doubt the traffic on game days is just as hectic. Adjacent to the Gate 21 plaza is another change, the new amphitheater at the corner of Phillip Fulmer Way and Andy Holt Avenue. The Vol Network’s Kickoff Call-In Show takes place there, sporting spiffy new digs after spending years on a make-shift platform in front of a worn down hillside. Just inside Gate 21, the Tennessee Official Team Shop is open for business six days a week under management of the UT Bookstore. Four other souvenir locations are located throughout the stadium, including one in an exclusive new seating area.
>> Tennessee Terrace
The Tennessee Terrace now occupies the west upper deck, with 1,800 individual chair-back seats and a climate-controlled concourse. All of the stadium’s high-end concessions are available to Terrace patrons, and those individuals also have the added bonus of sitting on the home side after the Vols switched back to the west for the first time since 1992. Plans call for stadium renovations to take a break and resume in December 2012. That should allow for a more normal maintenance schedule, including structural painting projects on the stadium’s exterior that are first in line for 2011. Design work throughout the entire Master Plan 180
renovations has been by McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects/Ross Bryan Associates. Contractor for this portion of the project was Blaine Construction.
>> Unveiling of the Neyland Statue
Honoring the man most responsible for the growth and development of the proud Volunteer football tradition, UT on Nov. 12, 2010 dedicated a statue of Gen. Robert R. Neyland (pictured at right) outside the stadium that bears his name. The dedication ceremony was held at the permanent location of the statue, between gates 15A and 17 on the west side of Neyland Stadium. The statue, which was commissioned by artist Blair Buswell, is twice life-size. Since Neyland is portrayed in the kneeling position rather than standing, the statue is nine feet tall (a standing statue would have stood 12 feet tall). The statue weighs approximately 1,500 pounds, and the base is 57 inches by 87 inches and features the seven Game Maxims engraved into the precast. Buswell is based in Salt Lake City and also is responsible for sculpting the busts for the Pro Football Hall of Fame incoming class each year.

The west side upper deck and new press box came in 1962, dedicated at the Alabama game. Neyland did not live to see the new addition, passing away in New Orleans on March 28. Before his death, he received progress reports on the new addition and press box. Tired of the Shields-Watkins Field press coop being consistently named one of the three worst in the country, he remarked to an aide: “We’re going to have the best press box in the country, and I hope it improves the quality of writing done there.”

>> Night Football Comes to Knoxville
The first south end upper deck expansion in 1972 also brought night football to the Home of the Vols. When Tennessee opened the home season that year against Penn State, the game debuted football under the lights. The Vols have played at night consistently ever since. The Neyland Stadium Press Box and Executive Suites officially opened for the Colorado State game Sept. 5, 1987, replacing the press box in operation since 1962. The press box was named for long-time trustee and Athletics Board member Col. Tom Elam of Union City.

>> Neyland Stadium Master Plan Renovations
In November 2004, the Tennessee athletics department unveled its master plan for Neyland Stadium to serve as a long-term solution for the issues currently facing the home of the Vols and to prepare the stadium for the next 75 years. The master plan was created in a phased approach. Each phase is independent to ensure that funding is available for each phase before it begins. There are additional phases still to be completed. 2006 Phase I: East-Side Club (425 seats) 2008 Phase II: West-Side Club (425 seats)/Press Box 2010 Phase III: West Side Terrace (1,800 seats)/Gate 21 Plaza Current Capacity: 102,455 181
VOLMANAC
Neyland’s success on the field led to four expansions between 1926 and 1938 as capacity grew from 3,200 to 31,390 with expansions on both the east and west sides and at the northwest corner in Section X. The east side expansion brought with it dorm rooms for 128 men, half of them athletes, a T-Club reception room and a practice room for the band under the stands. The largest expansion of the stadium came in 1948 as veterans came marching home from World War II. Returning to the Vol sidelines in 1946, Neyland said it would take five years for the Vols to be back on top. Almost immediately, the Vols won the SEC title that season and plans were drawn for a south end addition that included more dorm rooms, athletic department offices and a new dressing area for visiting teams. When the Vols squared off against Alabama Oct. 16, 1948, for Homecoming, 48,000 fans were present in the expanded stadium. Another 52,000 showed up a few weeks later for the clash with North Carolina.
In 89 seasons, the Vols are 432109-17 at home, a winning percentage of .789. Tennessee has had 79 winning seasons in 89 years at Shields-Watkins Field, including 36 undefeated years at home. The last team to go undefeated at home was the 2007 squad, which finished 7-0 at Neyland Stadium.

2010 REVIEW
Shields-Watkins Field, sometimes known as Shields-Watkins Stadium, opened Sept. 24, 1921, as the Vols defeated Emory & Henry 27-0. On opening day, the new stadium had 3,200 seats in 17 rows on the west side of the field. Named for its benefactors, W.S. Shields and wife, Alice-Watkins Shields, the venue was known as Shields-Watkins Field until the stadium was named in honor of Gen. Robert R. Neyland in 1962. March 16, 1921, was designated as a “Campus Day,” with classes being dismissed to guarantee a work force large enough to get the field ready for a baseball game three days later. The field was finished by noon the next day and the baseball game against Cincinnati went on as scheduled.
>> The 2011 season marks the 90th anniversary of Neyland Stadium, and the number also represents the gallons of orange and white paint it takes to get the lines, Power T and iconic end zone checkerboards ready for game day.

THE COLOR ORANGE
>> The Color Orange: The Condredge Holloway Story Condredge Holloway, UT’s Assistant AD for Player Relations, was featured in The Color Orange: The Condredge Holloway Story, an ESPN film debuted in February as a part of the network’s Year of the Quarterback initiative. Executive Producer Kenny Chesney narrated the film that documented the life and career of Holloway, the first starting African-American quarterback in the Southeastern Conference. The film was the idea of Chesney, the country music superstar who grew up in the Knoxville area idolizing Tennessee’s scrambling quarterback. The film premiered in a private screening at Knoxville’s historic Tennessee Theatre, Feb. 16. Hundreds of guests turned out including Holloway’s head coach, Bill Battle, current head coach Derek Dooley, former UT coach Phillip Fulmer, and former UT players Sterling Henton, Peyton Manning, Tee Martin, Lester McClain, Pat Ryan, Randy Sanders, Larry Seivers and Jason Witten. “I think we all know by now how much Con-

dredge is loved by the amount of people in this room, and who came to see the film tonight. We all know Condredge is a great athlete, and know all the statistics and everything he meant to Tennessee football. But I think the thing that all of us who made this film have realized is that we got to know how great the man is behind the Orange Number 7.” -Kenny Chesney The Color Orange: The Condredge Holloway Story debuted Sunday, Feb. 20, on ESPN. Holloway has been inducted into eight halls of fame throughout North America: Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame, Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, Canadian Football Hall of Fame, UT Baseball Hall of Fame, and the city halls of fame for Toronto, Ottawa, Knoxville and Huntsville, Ala.

VOLMANAC An Unofficial Victory It didn’t count, at least according to NCAA statisticians, but Tennessee’s first post-season bowl appearance came in the 1931 Charity Bowl game at Yankee Stadium. The game was one of a number of contests played during the Great Depression (mainly in 1931) to raise money for relief of the unemployed in response to the President’s Committee on Mobilization of Relief Resources.

Tennessee Bowl History Paved with Opportunity, Big Plays and National Championship Scenarios When bowl matchmakers begin the mental calculations leading toward their annual holiday events, Tennessee is one of a select group of universities that always receives thoughtful consideration. Traditionally, the Vols consistently provide an exciting bowl-game spectacle with high-powered offense and grudging defense. But that’s just one of many reasons Tennessee is a bowl promoter’s dream. UT’s other irresistible lure is its legions of fans, a collection of devoted supporters who bathe a neutral bowl site in a sea of orange worthy of a game at Neyland Stadium. The Vol faithful are good travelers who arrive at the game site early and make themselves seen and heard until they leave town. Tennessee has appeared in 49 bowl games, tying Texas for second on the all-time list. Of those games, a couple stand out as particularly memorable because of the bearing they had on producing two of the school’s national championships. In the early years of wire service polls, the national champion was selected at the end of the regular season. Bowl results were not part of the evaluation process. But Tennessee’s Cotton Bowl victory over Texas after the 1950 season was invaluable in paving the way for the crown UT claimed in 1951. The 20-14 upset of the Longhorns in Dallas on New
Year’s Day made the Vols the team to beat going into the next season. When the curtain fell on the 1951 campaign, Tennessee had ridden the momentum of its Cotton Bowl triumph to the national title as awarded by both wire service polls. Forty-seven years later, a bowl game was crucial to another UT national championship claim. In the first officially sanctioned Bowl Championship Series title game, the Vols met Florida State in a matchup of the two topranked teams at the close of the season. Led by the passing of quarterback Tee Martin, the Vols capped an undefeated season by turning back the Seminoles, 23-16, before a capacity crowd at the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl in Tempe, Ariz. National championship pandemonium reigned throughout the night at any place Vol fans were gathered. The significance of bowl games is in the eye of the individual, however, so you can pick among more than two dozen UT victories for your favorites. Certainly some of the other leaders would include: 1939 Orange Bowl (Vols 17, Oklahoma 0), 1965 Bluebonnet Bowl (Vols 27, Tulsa 6), 1971 Liberty Bowl (Vols 14, Arkansas 13), 1986 Sugar Bowl (Vols 35, Miami 7), 1990 Cotton Bowl (Vols 31, Arkansas 27), 1996 Citrus Bowl (Vols 20, Ohio State 14), 2002 Citrus Bowl (Vols 45, Michigan 17) and 2005 Cotton Bowl (Vols 38, Texas A&M 7).

YEAR-BY-YEAR TENNESSEE BOWL RESULTS
VOLMANAC Since the inception of wire service polls, Tennessee has frequently placed among the nation’s leaders in the national rankings. The Associated Press poll, which began in 1936, the United Press International poll, running from 1950 until 1991, and the CNN-USA Today poll lasting from 1982 until 1997, when it became the ESPN/USA Today poll, all reflect the lofty standings of the Vols in the eyes of coaches, sports writers and broadcasters. Tennessee won the 1951 and 1998 national championships in all polls and finished No. 2 in 1938, 1939, 1956, 1967 and 1995. The Vols have been awarded other national championships as determined by different points and ratings systems in effect at the time. UT earned national titles in 1938 and 1940 according to both the Dunkel and Litkenhous Systems. The Vols were named national champs in 1950 by Dunkel and in 1967 by Litkenhous. The 1951 title was also honored by both the Litkenhous and Williamson Systems.
Tennessee as No. 1 Tennessee ended the 1951 and 1998 seasons ranked No. 1 in the major wire service polls. The 1998 Vols were crowned national champion by the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today-Coaches poll, while the 1951 Vols were honored by both the AP and UPI polls. In addition, the Vols have held down the nation’s top spot on 15 different occasions in the history of the weekly Associated Press poll and have a 15-0 mark in those games. UT’s next game results after an AP No. 1 ranking are listed below.

In its 100 plus-year history, Tennessee has been involved in 10 contests in which the Vols’ opponent was ranked No. 1 in the country. UT has a 2-8 all-time record when playing the nation’s top-ranked team. The most recent home game between Tennessee and the No. 1-rated team was against Miami (Fla.) Nov. 9, 2002, in Knoxville. The Vols’ two victories against a No. 1 team have come against Southeastern Conference foes. Tennessee, ranked No. 13, edged Louisiana State 14-13 on Nov. 7, 1959, in Knoxville, to knock the Tigers out of the top spot. On Sept. 28, 1985, the Vols, 0-0-1 and unranked at the time, soundly defeated top-rated Auburn 38-20 in Knoxville. The 1985 Vols went on to win the SEC Championship and finish No. 4 nationally in all polls.

last time in the national polls Throughout its history, the University of Tennessee football program has been a regular member of the Associated Press and, more recently, the ESPN/USA Today Coaches polls. Below is a listing of the last time the Vols were ranked in a particular position in each poll. Tennessee’s last No. 1 ranking came at the end of the 1998 football season after Tennessee’s 23-16 win over Florida State in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl Jan. 4, 1999. The win garnered Tennessee the undisputed national championship thanks in part to the advent of the Bowl Championship Series, which matched the top two teams in the land in a fight for the national title.

Tennessee Lettermen’s T-Club The Tennessee Lettermen’s T-Club is open to any person who has been awarded a varsity letter in any NCAA sanctioned sport at UT and is interested in the purposes of the organization. All members who have paid their annual dues should be known as an active member with rights and privileges according to the bylaws. The Athletic Department has made it a top priority to create a warm atmosphere for former Vol athletes on those happy occasions when they return to campus for a visit. And now, they have a place to congregate in majestic opulence on Saturdays before Tennessee football games. The Lauricella Center for Letterwinners, which opened in the fall of 2008, is located in the northwest corner of Neyland Stadium and constitutes the perfect gathering place. The Center is open two hours before kickoff to lettermen and their guests each home game. The business office for the Lettermen’s “T” Club is located in Thompson-Boling Arena.

Retired numbers The 2005 ceremonies to retire the jerseys of Doug Atkins (91), Peyton Manning (16) and Reggie White (92) brought the list of retired jersey numbers at Tennessee to seven. This includes the four former Vol players, Clyde (lg) Fuson (62), Rudy Klarer (49), Bill Nowling (32), and WIllis Tucker (61), who died in World War II and had their jerseys retired in 1946. Ceremonies were held during the 2006 UT-Air Force game to officially memorialize those four players killed in World War II. Four Vols who died during World War II had their jerseys retired in 1946. Ceremonies were held in 2006.
16 Peyton Manning 92 Reggie White Ceremony Oct. 29, 2005
Manning is the most decorated athlete in UT history. He left Tennessee as the SEC’s all-time leading passer with 11,201 yards, setting 42 passing records during his Vols career that included two NCAA, seven SEC and 33 UT marks. Off the field, Manning won the Draddy Award as National Scholar-Athlete of the Year in 1997 and graduated in three years with a degree in speech communications. He graduated with the highest grade-point average (3.61) in his field. During his pro career, Manning has earned Pro Bowl honors 11 times in his 13seasons played and garnered an NFLrecord four MVP awards (2004, 05, 08, 09). Manning has led the Colts to two Super Bowl appearances (XLI & XLIV) including XLI MVP honors following a 29-17 triumph over the Chicago Bears. He threw a then-NFL-record 49 touchdown passes in 2004 and already has 399 for his career. Manning’s career total of 54,828 passing yards stands third on the NFL alltime list.
Retiring Jerseys
In 2005, Tennessee instituted criteria to retire additional numbers. Those criteria include, but are not limited to: candidates must be recognized as good citizens and have a minimum of five years between the candidate’s UT football career and consideration of this honor. A candidate must have achieved three of the following five collegiate honors: induction into the National Football Foundation or College Hall of Fame, Southeastern Conference (SEC) Player of the Year, Consensus All-America, Heisman Trophy winner, and have won one of the following general athletic/academic or nonposition specific awards: Sullivan Award, SEC Athlete of the Year (all sports) or Draddy Award.

Ceremony Oct. 1, 2005
White, who died Dec. 26, 2004, at the age of 43, collected a school-record 32 sacks in his four years with the Vols to establish himself as the most prolific pass rusher in Tennessee history. Fifteen of those sacks came in his senior year of 1983, a campaign former Vols head coach Phillip Fulmer called the “most individually dominant season I’ve ever seen.” Known as the “Minister of Defense,” White went on to a 17-year pro football career, retiring as the NFL’s all-time sack leader with 198. He was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2002. He graduated from Tennessee in 1990.
62 Clyde (Ig) Fuson
(March 11, 1923 — Dec. 4, 1944), a native of Middlesboro, Ky., and fullback on the 1942 team, shared playing time with Nowling. Ig had a younger brother, Herschel (Ug) Fuson, who was a freshman on the 1942 team.
49 Rudy Klarer
(March 9, 1923 — Jan. 6, 1945) was a reserve guard in 1941 and starter in 1942, from Louisville, Ky.
91 Doug Atkins
Ceremony Nov. 19, 2005
Doug Atkins is considered by many to be the greatest defensive end in football history. After originally signing with UT on a basketball scholarship, Atkins went on to gridiron AllAmerica status in 1952, was the only player to be unanimously named to the All-SEC Quarter Century Team (1950-74) and was selected SEC Player of the Quarter Century. Atkins retired with the most NFL games played (205) by a defensive lineman. The Vols went 29-3-1 with Atkins on the field and won the 1951 national championship.
32 Bill Nowling
(Aug. 8, 1920 — Aug. 9, 1944), a fullback 1940-42, from St. Petersburg, Fla., was a three-year starter.
61 Willis Tucker
(May 10, 1918 — Nov. 28, 1944), a graduate of Knoxville High School, earned a Vol football letter in 1940 and was a sprint star on the track team.

cil, as well as the NCAA’s Council, and is a member of the NCAA Leadership Committee. She also has been a member of the Southeastern Conference Executive Committee. As a former coach, Cronan served a two-year stint at Tennessee from 1968 to 1970. In 1969, she led the women’s basketball team to an alternate berth in the first-ever National Invitational Collegiate Basketball Tournament. While at Charleston, she continued her success, not only as a basketball coach but in tennis as well. In 1981, she gave up coaching to devote her full-time attention to her duties as teacher and athletics director. A graduate of LSU, Cronan earned her B.S. in 1966 and her M.S. in 1968, both in physical education. She was a fall 1995 inductee into LSU’s Alumni Hall of Distinction. Currently an avid golfer and tennis player, Cronan was ranked as high as second in the South in doubles and is a former state and Southern doubles champion. Cronan makes her home in Gettysvue. She and her late husband Tom, who passed away on Aug. 18, 2006, after a valiant battle with pancreatic cancer, have two daughters; Kristi (Mrs. Rhett Benner) and Stacey (Mrs. Kent Bristow), both 1994 graduates of UT; three grandsons, Chase Thomas and Reed Kent Bristow, and Quinn Leighton Benner; and two granddaughters, Reese Lauren Benner and Larkin Ann Bristow.

Overall Cumulative Record (28 yrs.) 8,162-3,678-72 (.688)
Triumphant collegiate programs are able to distinguish themselves from their counterparts because of superiority on the field of competition and within the classroom. The integrity and proactive guidance of the person at the helm is what has provided the edge to the University of Tennessee women’s athletics department for almost three decades. So it comes as no surprise that UT Chancellor Dr. Jimmy Cheek named Women’s Athletics Director Joan Cronan as the interim Vice-Chancellor/Director of Athletics on June 9, 2011. Under the vision and direction of Cronan, a heavilyrequested speaker on leadership and motivation on the national and local levels, the University of Tennessee Lady Vols have garnered a reputation as one of the most visible and respected programs throughout the nation. UT’s success in both the athletic and academic realms speaks volumes to her decision-making and leadership ability, as demonstrated by her appointment to the 2010 NCAA Division I Leadership Council and selected by her peers as the president of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) in 2008-09. Cronan is also a former president of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators (NACWAA). Both organizations have also honored Cronan as well. She was selected by NACWAA to receive their 2005 Athletic Director of the Year award. In 2004, Cronan was honored by NACDA with their Southeast Region Athletic Director of the Year award. In 2009, Cronan was presented with the Women of Achievement Award: “Women Who Make a Difference” by the International Women’s Forum and in 2011, the United States Sports Academy elected her as an Emeritus Member of its Board of Trustees. Having completed her 28th year at Tennessee in 2010-11, Cronan’s continued admiration by her peers and the community is well deserved because of her efforts in facilitating the operation of a first-class program, which has finished in the top two in the Southeastern Conference Women’s All-Sports Award from The New York Times Regional Newspaper Group for six of the past seven years, including three first-place finishes. In three of the past six years, all 11 Lady Vol teams participated in postseason play.
