#Team119

Butch Jones brought the concept of referring to each year’s team by what season it is in Tennessee history to differentiate how each season starts fresh. It keeps in line with his “Snap and Clear” mentality.

#CheckerNeyland Part II One of the most impressive and unique seating displays in college football is back for the 2015 season. A 100% fan-driven initiative, #CheckerNeyland saw 102,455 fans pack into Neyland Stadium in similitude to Tennessee’s iconic checkerboard endzones. On Sept. 2, head coach Butch Jones announced that the Sept. 12 home opener against Oklahoma will stand as this season’s #CheckerNeyland game.

#BLACKSTRIPES

#SWOOSH The Swoosh makes its return to Rocky Top.

Much-anticipated since the Tennessee department of athletics announced its eight-year apparel and sponsorship agreement with Nike in early, 2014, the Volunteers officially revealed their new look on July 1, 2015. Vol Nation’s passion was on full display on Reveal Day as fans logged on to UTSports.com at a record pace to view the live, all-sport, uniform unveiling show, “Swoosh,” produced by VFL Films. During its live airing, “Swoosh” had over 330,000 views with just under 107,000 unique users -- more than 50 percent of which were first-time visitors to the site. In a runway style showcase, Tennessee Football showed off three uniform sets: the traditional orange and white combinations as well as a new alternate look: the Smokey Gray. An homage to the Smoky Mountains that hug Knoxville and much of East Tennessee, the Smokey Gray uniforms had their distinct shade derived from actual visits to the Great Smoky Mountains by Nike designers. Another unique feature can be seen on the Smokey Gray helmet as the subtle sillhouette of Smoky Mountain ridgeline wraps the dome. Tennessee’s social media accounts produced eye-popping numbers on the day of the reveal. The @Vol_Football account had a reach of 14.2 million users on Wednesday. The tweet formally announcing the new Nike uniforms had over 116,000 impressions. The total Twitter reach of “Vols” and #Vols was more that 47 million users. The Tennessee Football Facebook page also received unprecedented traffic. Photo galleries of the orange, white and Smokey Gray uniforms combined to reach 2.5 million users. 1.5 million of those views came from the gallery of the new Smokey Gray alternate uniform. Tennessee fans showed their loyalty and excitement with their wallets as well. Online visitors purchased over $150,000 in Nike merchandise from the online team shop on 1,500 transactions, an average of $100 per sale.

Traditionally, a newcomer to a football team is working to earn his stripes. At Tennessee, The opposite is true as the Vol rookies are fighting every day to lose them.

The passion of Tennessee fans is unmatched, and the excitement of the new partnership with Nike is just beginning!

Every new member of Team 119 had a black stripe placed on their otherwise-white practice helmets at the beginning of fall camp. The players’ staff is charged with determining when the newcomers can have the stripe removed.

#VolsOnSnap

Notable Volunteers to be among the first of their class to lose their black stripes include DB Cameron Sutton (2013), DL Derek Barnett (2014), and RB Jalen Hurd (2014). RB and JUCO transfer Alvin Kamara was the first Vol newcomer to lose his black stripe in 2015.

#MYALL

Butch Jones has found new inspiration for the 2015 season from the iconic “I will give my all for Tennessee today” sign in the locker room. “The theme this year for our football program is ‘My All’. I think it is very fitting with the ‘I will give my all for Tennessee today’ sign. There is a difference between what we call a concept and a belief. A concept is just a concept. You see it, but you don’t believe in it. You don’t touch that sign every time you run out onto the field of competition as a good luck charm. You touch that sign because you believe you are going to give your all for Tennessee.” — @UTCoachJones

Before the season, Coach Jones asked every player to share their personal ‘My All’ -- an ideal of determination they will consistently offer #Team119. “My ‘All’ was to play my senior year with confidence. I have to go in every day and act like I’m the best center in the nation and play like that. I want to play the best I can and play with confidence.” — Mack Crowder (@ClamCrowder57)

Letting #SleepingVols Lie The effort to maximize performance on the field took a step in a new direction during fall camp when Tennessee players were assigned sleep trackers and sleep coaches. Sensors were placed on players’ mattresses to track breathing and heart rate -- key factors in determining the restfulness of a night’s sleep and the recovery benefits gained. The sensors also help set bedtimes so players can maximize their time spent asleep.

#FatherSon The ‘family’ theme runs deep at Tennessee, sometimes in the most literal sense. Butch Jones’ 2014 class was notable for featuring six legacy players who relatives play in the Orange & White. In 2015, the father-son motif is in play as the sons of three prominent UT coaches have joined #Team119.

MORE THAN A NUMBER • Three Vols have changed their previous jersey numbers to wear those of injured teammates for the 2015 season. • Jashon Robertson was the first to make the switch, moving from 73 to 75 in order to honor OL Marcus Jackson, who is expected to miss the season (biceps injury). • The second switch came from junior DB Cameron Sutton, who shed his previous 23 to wear the No. 7 belonging to Rashaan Gaulden (broken foot). • Finally, DB Maiik Foreman will wear No. 13 instead of his usual 22 as a token of respect to former DB Devaun Swafford, whose career was ended over the summer due to health reasons.

That year, UT climbed to No. 23 in the AP Top 25 following a 2-0 start to the year with wins over NC State and Georgia State. • Tennessee has now been ranked in 59 of the AP Poll’s 80 seasons, good for 74 percent.

TRUE FROSH IN THE OPENER • Tennessee played a school-record 21 true freshmen in its 2014 opening win against Utah State. That smashed the previous record for most true freshmen to play in an opener. In both 2010 and 2011, the Vols played 12 true freshman. The Vols also played 10 or more true freshman in the opener seven times, all since 1996.  True Freshmen Playing In Season Opener 2014 2011 2010 2013

YOUTH AND EXPERIENCE

2014 YOUTH MOVEMENT • The Vols had 12 true freshmen (including kicker Aaron Medley) start games in 2014. • Tennessee set a school record with seven total true freshman starters against Missouri (11/22/14). UT had three true freshman starters on offense and four more on defense. Four true freshmen starting on defense set another school record. • The Vols started at least three true freshmen in every game last season with the season-high of seven coming against Missouri. The Vols started at least five in the six of the final 11 games of the season, including the TaxSlayer Bowl win over Iowa.

• Last season Tennessee played 23 freshmen over the course of the year, the most for any FBS program in the nation. • It was also the only team in the nation that did not return a starter on offensive AND defensive lines. • On the heels of that youth movement, Tennessee returns 50 letterwinners and 21 starters from the 2014 squad that went 7-6 with a TaxSlayer Bowl win over Iowa. • Despite all the returners, youth remains a major theme for Team 119 as the depth chart currently lists 16 starting positions that could be filled by underclassmen (sophomore or younger).

FRESHMEN SET TO START • After starting three true freshmen in last season’s opening game, the Volunteers have just one expected rookie starter on the current depth chart. • In a remarkable story, true freshman Jauan Jennings is slated to start in Nashville at wide receiver. • A four-star recruit, Jennings was an early enrollee at quarterback in the spring of 2015, but made the switch to wide receiver prior to the start of camp. • Jennings would be the first true freshman to start at WR since Marquez North in 2013 and the second since 2009 (Marsalis Teague). • True freshman Tommy Townsend is also listed as one of three potential starters for the Vols at punter.

» Players on the Tennessee squad that have been with the program one year or fewer.

• All-Americans Curt Maggitt and Derek Barnett make Tennessee the only FBS program to return two players who had at least 10 sacks last season. • The pair combined for 21 sacks--third-most of any duo in the nation--and 35.5 tackles for loss in 2014. • According to STATS LLC, Tennessee is the first FBS team to return two players that produced double-digit sack totals the previous year since Arizona State in 2013. • Only three other programs (Washington, Utah, and Missouri) had two players with double-digit sack totals. Hunter Dmick of Utah is the only returning player from those duos.  Most Sacks By Two Teammates, NCAA, 2014 1. Washington (Nau’oli Kikaha 18; A. Hudson 11.5) 29.5 2.

Beech HS Retires Hurd’s #18

Sophomore running back Jalen Hurd had his number retired by his high school alma mater, Beech HS, last week during a halftime ceremony. Hurd won the Class AAA Mr. Football Award as a junior at Beech in 2012. That season he rushed for 3,357 yards and 43 touchdowns in leading the Buccaneers to the Class 5A Bluecross Bowl State Championship.

Siri Voices a Love for the Vols

The Apple website encourages its iOS users to speak to Siri -- the voice-controlled assistant and navigator available on your iPhone -- as you would a friend. Vol Nation has become even more friendly with Siri after it was discovered in August that the software is a fan of Tennessee football. Shortly after the release of the preseason AP Top 25, which ranks the Vols at No. 25, fans learned that if you ask Siri her favorite college football team she’ll promptly, “I always like to root for the underdog, I guess that makes me a fan of Tennessee right now.” A complete listing of the AP Top 25 accompanies her (likely fleeting) statement of devotion.

Jones joined UT from the University of Cincinnati, where he finished with a 23-14 record (.657) in three seasons with the Bearcats. Tennessee finished its second season under Jones with a 7-6 record that included a 45-28 win over Iowa in the TaxSlayer Bowl in Jacksonville which marked the first January bowl game for UT since the 2007 season. The Vols opened the 2014 season by playing 21 true freshmen in a 38-7 win over Utah State, the most true freshmen to play in a season opener in UT history. Overall, Tennessee led the nation overall last season with 23 true freshman playing in 2014, with 12 true freshmen starting games for the Vols during the season. Jones and his staff have been relentless on the recruiting trail since arriving in Knoxville. In February 2014, Tennessee signed a consensus top 10 recruiting class that was ranked as high as top five by most media outlets. Jones has prioritized the state of Tennessee in his recruiting efforts, and the 2014 class featured the overwhelming majority of the top talent in the state of Tennessee signing with the Vols, including Freshman All-American and All-SEC performer Derek Barnett, a multitude of Freshman All-SEC players (Barnett, Todd Kelly, Jr., Jashon Robertson), and team’s leading rusher in 2014, Jalen Hurd. The 2015 recruiting class was once again ranked in the Top 5, by most services giving the Vols back-to-back Top 5 recruiting classes for the first time in school history. Ten of those recruits arrived early in Knoxville in January 2015. A staple of Jones’ programs has been success in the classroom, and the UT program has also made great strides academically during his tenure. The program has posted the highest team GPAs in program history during Jones’ tenure, including a record 2.85 in Spring in 2015 and previous record mark of 2.77 GPA in the Fall of 2014. The program has also increased its cumulative GPA in each of the last six semesters. Additionally, the Tennessee program also posted the best APR scores in program history in each of his first two semesters as head coach, including a perfect 1000 score in Spring 2013 and no eligibility points lost in either semester. Graduation is a top priority for Jones, as 14 of 18 seniors on the 2014 team received their degrees prior to the TaxSlayer Bowl, with the other four on track to do so by either May or August 2015. A total of 21 of 24 seniors from the 2013 team have graduated, with two in the NFL and on track to do so through the RAC (Renewing Academic Commitment) program and the other having graduated from the Knoxville Police Academy. In his first season on Rocky Top, the Vols defeated No. 11/9 South Carolina, the first win for UT over a ranked opponent since 2009. The win over the Gamecocks in 2014, when the Vols trailed by 14 with less than two minutes remaining, marked the biggest comeback in school history that late in a game. Also in 2014, the 95 combined points against South Carolina (45) and Kentucky (50) are the most for Tennessee in consecutive games since 2003, while the 50 points and the 34-point margin of victory over Kentucky (50-16) are the most for UT since 2010. Jones was also the head coach for three years at Central Michigan (27-13, .675, from 2007-09). He has won at least eight games in five of his six years as a head coach, including

three seasons of nine-plus wins in the last four years (2009, 2011, 2012). Jones also has won 10 or more games twice, finishing 11-2 at CMU in 2009 and posting a 10-3 record and top 25 final national ranking with Cincinnati in 2011. Jones has also finished the season ranked in the top 25 in three of the last four seasons (2009 with CMU and 2011-12 at Cincinnati). Jones has won four conference championships in his seven seasons as a head coach, including the Big East title in 2011 and 2012 with Cincinnati and the 2007 and 2009 Mid-American Conference titles at Central Michigan. He earned Big East Conference Coach of the Year honors after his 10-win season with the Bearcats in 2011 and earned the same honor from CBSSports.com in 2012, a year in which his squad captured its second consecutive bowl victory while also finishing with a top 25 ranking. UC finished the regular season 9-3 with a 5-2 league record to share the Big East crown. In 2011, Cincinnati was the only program nationally to win both its conference title and its league top academic honor, earning the 2010-11 Big East Team Academic Excellence Award. Also that same year, JK Schaffer of the Bearcats named the 2011 American Eagle Outfitters Big East Football Scholar-Athlete of the Year, the second consecutive UC player to earn that honor (John Goebel in 2010). The 2011 UC team that finished 10-3 improved six wins from the 4-8 finish in 2010, making the Bearcats the most improved team from a BCS conference in the nation that season. Cincinnati also recorded its first bowl win over a BCS opponent, defeating Vanderbilt 31-24 in the Liberty Bowl. Cincinnati placed eight players on the All-Big East Conference team from 2011-12, including Big East Offensive Player of the Year Isaiah Pead and Big East Co-Defensive Player of the Year Derek Wolfe in 2011. Pead closed out his UC career with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, the first time a Bearcat back has accomplished that in almost 25 years. Before accepting the head coaching position at Cincinnati, Jones’s 27-13 record at Central Michigan included a pair of MAC titles, three consecutive bowl appearances, and a No. 23 postseason ranking in 2009. The Chippewas were 22-3 in the MAC during his tenure, and he was the only head coach to lead the program to consecutive bowl games as well as the first in the history of the MAC to do so in his first three seasons. In addition to coaching Pittsburgh Steelers Pro Bowl receiver Antonio Brown at Central Michigan, one of Jones’ players while coaching the Chippewas, offensive lineman Eric Fisher, was drafted No. 1 overall in the 2013 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs. Jones recruited Fisher to join the CMU 2009 where he went on to a decorated career. Joining Fisher in Kansas City was another Jones product, Travis Kelce who was selected in the third round after playing at Cincinnati. Jones was the wide receivers coach at West Virginia from 2005-06 before he moved to Central Michigan, during which time the Mountaineers went a combined 22-3 and the 2005 squad defeated Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. He served as an assistant at Central Michigan for seven years from 1998-2004, as offensive coordinator (2002-04), running backs coach (1999-2004), and as tight ends coach (1998). Jones was also the offensive coordinator at Ferris State from 1995-97 and at Wilkes University from 1993-94 and also served as an assistant at Rutgers from 1990-92. Jones is a 1990 graduate of Ferris State University in Michigan, where he was a two-year letterman in football. His original entry into the coaching ranks was as an intern with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1987-89. Jones and his wife, Barb, are the parents of three sons: Alex (18), Adam (14), and Andrew (8). Alex joined the team as a kicker in 2015.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING... “Coach Butch Jones is a man that not only has the football acumen to bring Tennessee back to it’s rightful place in the SEC, and College Football world, he’s a man that will connect with the “Volunteer Nation,” and “Big Orange Country.” - Charles Davis, Former Tennessee defensive back and current FOX NFL analyst “Without a doubt, Tennessee hired a quality football coach in Butch Jones, but more importantly, it hired an even even better man to run its program. He brings a passion and relentless desire for success that will most certainly lead to great things both on and off the field.” - Brian Kelly, Notre Dame head coach, former Cincinnati and Central Michigan head coach “I have been told by people for years that Butch Jones is a rising coach and a star in this business. I did my due diligence and got to know Butch to a degree. I feel that Butch is a star and someone who can coach at any level including the SEC. With the resources at Tennessee he will soar as a coach and will have athletic directors at other schools saying `why didn’t we hire Butch Jones.’ Butch is also a man of integrity and runs the program with integrity. He is an excellent recruiter and it is not a cliché to say that he will turn his players into men and men with integrity.” - Chris Mortensen, ESPN Senior NFL Analyst

TENNESSEE FOOTBALL

NEYLAND STADIUM | SHIELDS-WATKINS FIELD

CAPACITY: 102,455

449-121-17 OVERALL RECORD IN 94 YEARS AT NEYLAND STADIUM

THE BEST GETS BETTER The Home of the Vols got a makeover in 2010, transforming one of college football’s meccas into an aesthetic masterpiece. 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-- Al Wilson, Gen. Robert R. Neyland, 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 Gate 21 plaza area. 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.

19 STRAIGHT YEARS WITH 100,000+ Tennessee has had at least one home crowd of 100,000-plus in each of the last 19 seasons, including sellouts against Alabama, Florida and Utah State in 2014. Only Michigan has a longer streak dating back to 1975.

TOP 10 ATTENDANCE With four sellouts of 102,455 in 2014 (Utah State, Florida, Alabama and Kentucky), Tennessee ranked seventh in the nation in average attedance (99,754). UT finished sixth in total attendance (698,276). ¢ 2014 Average Home Attendance Leaders

ATTENDANCE SURGES With an average attendance of 99,754 last season, Tennessee posted its highest average attendance at home since 2010 (99,781). Since 2012 (89,965), the average attendance at Neyland Stadium has increased by nearly 10,000.

THE GENERAL THE PROVERBIAL YARDSTICK

NEYLAND’S MAXIMS OF FOOTBALL

One of the greatest coaches in the history of the game of football, Gen. Robert Reese Neyland is still, and will most likely always be, the yardstick by which all Tennessee football coaches are measured. For 21 years, he led the Big Orange to win after win and championship after championship. His 173 wins, seven conference titles and four national championships set the bar at one of the nation’s finest football institutions. According to UT legend Gus Manning, no one summed up Neyland and his coaching ability better than Wallace Wade: “He could take his and beat yours or take yours and beat his.” -- Wallace Wade, Alabama and Duke head coach and Neyland rival.

1. The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win. 2. Play for and make the breaks and when one comes your way -- SCORE. 3. If at first the game or the breaks go against you, don’t let up -- put on more steam. 4. Protect our kickers, our QB, our lead and our ball game. 5. Ball, oskie, cover, block, cut and slice, pursue and gang tackle -- for this is the WINNING EDGE. 6. Press the kicking game. Here is where the breaks are made. 7. Carry the fight to our opponent and keep it there for 60 minutes.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING... “The big games I played in Neyland Stadium are right up there with the Super Bowl. It is still one of the most electric atmospheres I have ever experienced, and the passion of the fans is what makes the difference.” Peyton Manning, Former Vol and Denver Broncos QB “It is a remarkable experience. It starts with the Vol Walk down to the stadium, and the energy just builds and builds until you run through the ‘T’ for kickoff.” - Jerod Mayo, Former Vol and Patriots LB “Don’t know if it is the stadium on the water, a bright orange I can even see or the 100,000+ die-hard fans but Tennessee is definitely one of my top-5 spots in college football. Neyland and Tennessee, you far exceeded my expectations.” - Brock Huard, ESPN/SEC Network game analyst

“I’ve been to LSU, Florida State and Texas and almost every place that could be considered one of the toughest places to play. But we went down to Knoxville for a night game, and that Tennessee crowd was the most impressive that I have ever faced. Neyland Stadium was just electric.” - Bob Davie, ESPN game analyst and former Notre Dame head coach “It’s static noise. You can’t hear anything. You go up and down the line -- your wide receivers, your running backs, your tight ends -- nobody can hear. Nobody.” - Nate Longshore, Former Cal quarterback (2006) “It’s got to be Tennessee! That night in that stadium with the orange and Rocky Top -- that’s my favorite!” - Lee Corso, ESPN College Football Analyst

ANDERSON TRAINING CENTER Tennessee’s brand new, state-of-the-art Anderson Training Center is one of the most modern and functional buildings of its kind. The 145,000-square foot building includes an amphitheater-style team room, coaches’ offices, position meeting rooms, a dining hall, players’ lounge, a 7,000-square foot locker room, a 22,000-square foot, multi-level weight room as well as a new training room, hydrotherapy and nutrition area. The building also features several technological upgrades, including a state-of-the-art video delivery system for players and coaches. The locker room includes roomy, custom-built and ventilated lockers with electrical outlets for charging portable devices like cellphones, iPods and laptops. Also included in the building is an updated football hall of fame area. The Anderson Training Center joins the Brenda Lawson Athletic Center and Neyland-Thompson Sports Center. It provides student-athletes direct access to both the 120-yard Robert E. White indoor football field and Haslam Field, Tennessee’s two outdoor football practice fields. The facility is named in honor of the leadership support of the Anderson family, including Charlie and Moll Anderson of Knoxville, Terry and Susan Anderson and Charlie Sr. and Hilda Anderson, both of Florence, Ala. Charlie is a former student-athlete with the Volunteer football program (1974-76) and served as a Board of Trustree member. He and Moll have been leadership donors to athletics for many years and have also impacted multiple areas of campus with their generosity. Terry also played football at UT and his son, Carson, also played for the Vols and graduated in Dec. 2012. The $45 million facility was dedicated on April 19, 2013.

Last November, the Chiefs announced that Berry, who is also the older brother of current Vols Eric and Elliott, would miss the rest of the season due to a non-football related illness. Over the past several months, Berry battled through treatments for Hogkin’s Lymphoma, vowing to return to football. He finished his treatment in the spring and was declared cancer-free in June. • Before the game, Berry shared an emotional hug with his mother. He was one of the Chiefs’ captains for the pre-game toss and the Cardinals’ paid tribute to his return with a “Welcome back, Eric Berry!” graphic on the scoreboard. • Tennessee head coach Butch Jones on Berry’s return: “I think that is one of the greatest stories in all of football and one of the greatest stories in all of life. It is very, very special.”
