Tennessee senior defensive back Prentiss Waggner talks with reporters Thursday at Neyland Stadium.

In hindsight, Tennessee admits team unity was lacking last season. As the Vols prepare to open preseason camp, they believe they're off to a good start in that area this year.

If they can keep this good chemistry going all season long, we should be able to stay composed during the rough times.

This team will definitely have some rough periods this season considering the level of competition. When picked fifth in a division of 7 and play higher rated teams outside the division, the team has to beat some teams the so called experts are saying are better. 7-8 wins will be a good season. A 4-1 start would be great for this team and 2013 recruiting.

We need a "signature" win over one of the top four teams on our schedule. I think this COULD be a special season if we start off trong and get early wins. We should not under estimate the game against NC State. We need to be undefeated ging into the Florida game and then see where it goes.
We have already got the "signature" loss out of the way, we simply need to go out and win some games!!! Pulling for our VOLS to knock down some doors this year and defend our home field. GO BIG ORANGE, VFL!!!

The true test comes when pressure and/or adversity come their way. I have been a part of building unity in military units and I can tell you that unity can be skin deep and blow apart when tested. One thing I do know is that situations like the Kentucky loss can change things for the better. These are young kids and sometimes it takes something like that to mature them enough to know they don't know everything. I hope that's the case with our guys.
