I really like our orange practice jerseys! Those would be a nice change up every now and then during the season!

Cuonzo is on the train as well. There were a lot of former basketball players as well. Vincent Yarbrough, Steve Hamer, Dale Ellis, Tony White and two or three others I did not recognize.

I like what Jaques Smith said about Jancek's 43 defense..They played so much better in the 43 under Wilcox, it's encouraging to hear JS feeling comfortable in a scheme going into his last season at UT..GBO!!

Looks and sounds good so far. Although we've seen similar instances when it looked good earlier on (orange glasses?) it feels different. This staff has been together for a few years, and it seems the players and staff are on the way.
Go Vols!
