Students to take on TN public policy in Baker Center competition Savannah Gilman Staff Writer (@SavannahGilman)

UT students can’t resist a challenge. During the second annual Howard Baker Public Policy Challenge, students will attempt to create public policy solutions to major issues affecting communities in Tennessee. Today at 3:30 p.m. in the Toyota Auditorium of the Howard H. Baker Center for Public Policy an information session will be held concerning the program and how students can apply. Applications to participate will close Sept. 12. Closely resembling the “Fel’s Institute of Government’s Public Policy Challenge” at the University of Pennsylvania, this year’s challenge will allow participants to research and write policies addressing issues that resonate with them. Nissa Dahlin-Brown, associate director of the Baker Center, helped reform the program and establish it as an annual campus event. “It was an idea that I had because I believed if students get involved in the policy process, they’ll understand what they’re capable of,” Dahlin-Brown said. Working in groups of three to five, selected students will spend about three months crafting their policies. Local experts will then partner with teams to critique the policies and suggest revisions. Each team will present a finished policy at the semi-final competition in November, but only the top five groups will participate in the final competition in February. Participants write policy reports which are then submitted to a panel of judges representing local government, community leaders, state government and business leaders.

Mayor Rogero comes out in support of gay marriage Tanner Hancock Copy Editor (@Tannerhancock26)

The mayor has taken her stance. On Tuesday, Mayor Madeline Rogero declared her open support of samesex marriage, joining a national organization of 500 mayors from 45 states, “Mayors for the Freedom to Marry.” In a media release issued that day, Rogero firmly backed her controversial

respects and values all of its citizens,” she wrote in the press release. “The right to public and legal recognition of a committed, loving relationship is fundamental to individual dignity and happiness.” The mayor’s announcement comes in the wake of a similar declaration from Nashville Mayor Karl Dean on Monday. Elizabeth Stanfield, • Mayor Madeline Rogero junior in geography and anthropology, welcomed the mayor’s statement as a stance. “As mayor, I have always necessary act. “It’s a big step in recogsaid that Knoxville is a city that embraces diversity, and nizing that LGBT people

are people and deserve the same rights as everybody else,” Stanfield said. “LGBT deserve to be able to openly love and marry, just like straight people.” To some, like Brandon Chrisman, senior in political science and former president of UT’s chapter of College Republicans, the mayor’s announcement seemed largely unnecessary. “What Tennesseans want is what the government should reflect,” Chrisman said. “When the people speak, it’s a mandate.” Chrisman noted that all of Tennessee’s 95 coun-

Neyland Stadium’s gameday atmosphere is intimidating. With 102,455 people piled into their seats and thousands more scattered across campus, the environment is enough to make any visiting team lose focus – if only slightly. Neyland, however, may adversely affect the Vols in Sunday’s home opener against Utah State, when the 19 newcomers listed

on UT’s 2-deep depth chart run through the ‘T’ for the first time. “I am worried about the shock value of our team,” Tennessee head coach Butch Jones said. “A lot of these individuals haven’t performed (in that environment). That is why the open practice was monumental – our fans coming out and supporting us was monumental. When you hear them say, ‘That is the largest crowd I ever played in front of, 40,000.’ I told them a couple weeks ago, that isn’t even half of what you are going to

be playing in front of. So I am more concerned with how our players respond and not getting all caught up in the emotions of a game.” Despite making that open practice “as chaotic as possible,” Jones is right. A large percentage of this Volunteer roster remains unfamiliar with what they will face on Sunday, especially with tickets for the game expected to be sold out. “ There’s probably always going to be a little bit of nerves,” sophomore wide receiver Marquez North said. “Just com-

ing in from high school, it’s a big step playing in front of probably about 1,000 people at the most at my school, to 102,455. There are going to be a little nerves, but we’ve just got to prepare the same way each practice, and then hopefully we’ll handle it.” Handling the moment will be especially important for the Vols, as the Chuckie Keeton-led Aggies have already proven their ability to play in hostile environments.

ties voted in 2006 to ban gay marriage. The will of the people, Chrisman said, should be the “guiding light” in government. The decision, he believes, should lie with Tennesseans. While gay marriage is just one of many issues facing the LGBT community, Stanfield expressed her appreciation for the mayor’s open support. “When important people put themselves out there like that, it empowers others to do the same,” Stanfield said.

Despite graduating from the University of Georgia with a degree in library and information science, Ernest Greene couldn’t find a job as a librarian. Instead, his career path took an unanticipated turn when he began producing songs in his bedroom while living with his parents. By 2009, Greene had become “Washed Out”: a lead singer, songwriter and producer. Accompanied by his band of four musicians, Greene performed on the U.S. Cellular Stage at the Bijou Theatre on Monday evening as a part of Washed Out’s North American tour. Performing songs from both his freshman and sophomore albums, “Within and Without” and “Paracosm” respectively, Washed Out brought life to downtown Knoxville on an otherwise dreary day. “It was a lot different from what you’d expect,” Smith Anders Vaughn, junior in geography, said after the concert. “A lot of his first stuff was really sample-based and mashed, but he really knows how to make something more groovy.” The hour-and-a-half long set was energized, yet harmonious. Bodies were swaying and heads were bobbing with each song, even the ballads. The audience was quite rowdy for a weekday evening as Washed Out filled the room with music and light. Throughout the performance, blue and purple shadows danced across the Bijou’s walls. Small Black, a band from Brooklyn, New York, opened the show as the crowd filed in. Despite audience disruptions, the band created a nice atmosphere for Washed Out. After her first Washed Out concert, Madeline Miller, sophomore in animal science, said the show exceeded her expectations, though she imagined a larger turnout. “He had a good energy,” Miller said. “He really seemed like he knew what he was doing.” See WASHED OUT on Page 5

CAMPUS NEWS SUPPORT GROUP continued from Page 1 Although Hedinger usually prepares an agenda for the meetings, the group often spends the time chatting. “We discuss what it means to be an effective communicator, identifying different aspects of what it means to interact with other people,” Hedinger said. “Sometimes when people stutter they put a lot of emphasis on being fluent, but that’s not always the most important characteristic.” For author and UT alumnus Vince Vawter, the stutter stems from over-focusing on fluency and struggling to find his “voice.” “You shouldn’t think like that,” Vawter said. “Your goal

should just be to say what you want to say.” In his novel “Paperboy,” Vawter explores the inner dialogue of a child who stutters, using his childhood in Memphis as inspiration. Typically, Vawter noted, children begin to notice their stutter at the age of 3. “With young people, they still aren’t sure what’s going on,” he said. “They feel normal, they look normal, they’re smart and yet there is the thought that they can’t get out what they want to say.” At one session held during summer, group members Skyped with several Germans who stutter but lack access to a local support group. “It was so neat,” Hedinger said. “The same problems that are happening in Germany are the same problems that are happening here … They experience

the same difficulties.” The support groups are open to all community members and students. The group primarily focuses on adults and their families, but Hedinger plans to extend the program to include adolescents and mature teens. Through therapy, speechlanguage pathologists can teach techniques to increase speech fluency as well as improve attitudes toward communication. However, Hedinger believes a support group can prove even more beneficial. “Even if you have family and friends that are very supportive of you when you stutter, nothing really beats having a friend that has the same problem,” Hedinger said. “Just that feeling of bonding and knowing you have the same struggles that I do.”

“We are providing students an opportunity to interact directly with leaders and government members,” said Carpenter. “This is real world experience because their policy could go on to be passed. We encourage students to learn about policy no matter what their field or passion, because they can help their local governments.” Dahlin-Brown said graduate students may now participate alongside undergraduate students of all majors in a movement toward greater inclusivity. “We really want to get crossdisciplinary and include graduate students as team leaders,” Dahlin-

Brown said. “The teams will have everything from undergraduates to law school to everything ... A big part of it is to expose students to different people and ways of thinking.” Dahlin-Brown stressed that the policies students create during the challenge will be taken seriously. All policies will be considered for implementation by government agencies and the state legislature. “This isn’t to design something to sit on the shelf,” Dahlin-Brown said. “We still need to address the problems and get at the heart of issues. I hope strongly that we can implement these (policies).”

EYES ON KNOXVILLE Mediterranean eatery spices up Knoxville’s ethnic restaurant scene Victoria Brown

Staff Writer (@vbrown_20)

Nestled in the heart of downtown Knoxville, Yassin’s Falafel House offers a splash of cultural diversity with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-style cuisine. Located at 706 Walnut St., the recently opened restaurant has quickly become a native hot spot. Just a short walk from campus, Yassin’s specializes in fresh, customizable falafels and falafel sandwiches in addition to hummus dip available on a scale of spiciness. On weekends, a Middle Eastern chicken kabob joins the menu. Everything is made in-store each morning and nothing kept for the next day. With health in mind, the restaurant provides free fruit water to customers daily, including infusions such as oranges and strawberries. The drinks are also free of carbonation and added sugar. For those seeking something a little sweeter, Yassin’s Falafel House offers Mexican Coca-Cola’s and orange citrus drinks. However, even in these options, sugar con-

tent remains relatively low. The restaurant was established earlier this year by Yassin Trou, who transformed the space from an office to an eatery. Last year, Trou briefly opened the restaurant for a “trial run” to test Knoxville’s market. Trou made the downtown business a permanent fixture in May. “We did a soft opening last year, just to test the market, and it actually did very good,” Trou said. Trou said he loves UT, making Knoxville, his favorite city, an ideal location for Yassin’s Falafel House. “When I moved here, I saw there was no falafel place or fresh falafel place,” Trou said. “You have some places that sell falafels, but they do not specialize. The people here, they love the food and they deserve good food.” Sarah Penny, an employee at Yassin’s Falafel House, said she enjoys working at the establishment. “It’s cultural, it’s good, and it’s a neat place to come visit,” Penny said. Dubbing the restaurant a “nice vegetarian option,” Knoxville resident Steve Greene visits fre-

quently to order his favorite meal, the spicy falafel sandwich. “I really like the food,” Greene said. “It’s delicious.” Abdel Rahman Murphy, an employee of a nearby business, said he often stops by Yassin’s Falafel House for lunch meetings with friends. “If we ever have a meeting and we don’t want to have to go through the hassle of parking somewhere ... this is a really convenient location,” Murphy said. Citing low prices and tasty food, Murphy recommended the restaurant to UT students. “ Fa l a f e l s and Mediterranean cuisine like hummus and salad are really flavorful, healthy, something unique, but at the same time, it doesn’t break the bank,” Murphy said. Yassin’s Falafel House also caters and can occasionally be found serving food at UT’s International House. Trou said UT students are always welcome to stop by to eat, study or hold meetings in the conference room. “They are welcome any time,” Trou said. “We love you guys. Go Vols.”

Rapper’s album steals summer spotlight Cell Waller III

Contributor

After a summer devoid of any major studio releases from the big names in hip-hop, Travi$ Scott’s free album “Days Before Rodeo” arrived as the season’s most anticipated project. Scott, the new face of the Houston rap scene, has been making waves since his first placement, an appearance on Kanye West’s label G.O.O.D Music’s compilation album with his verse on “Sin City.” Now considered West’s protégé, Scott has risen from relative anonymity to a favorite among backpack hip-hop fans, with placements on Billboard No. 1 albums such as JayZ’s “Magna Carta Holy Grail” and Wale’s “The Gifted.” Praised for his work on Kanye West’s talked about song, “New Slaves,” Scott is also now

a coveted record producer. Similar to a young West, Scott’s early career primarily consisted of collaboration and featured spots on fellow rappers’ music. But in early June, rumors about Scott’s then untitled-album started to circulate. Then the conversation changed. Suddenly, people were finally beginning to care about Scott as a solo artist. “Days Before Rodeo” hits its stride on the second track. One of the true standouts on the album is a “posse cut” titled “Mamacita.” S ounding more like the score of a Tarantino movie than a hiphop song, Scott describes the nightlife and women in his hometown of Houston. With a memorable hook from Rich Homie Quan and a verse from rap newcomer Young Thug, the track is likely one of this year’s truly great songs. “Drug You Should Try,” an auto-tune filled bal-

The album nears its end with the track “Backyard,” giving Scott a platform to reflect on his past.

Letter Editor to the

A teacher’s takeaway from Ferguson, Missouri I’m a second-year teacher, and I was sitting in my classroom Monday, waiting for my new students to come in after the first tardy bell. As I heard the sounds of their footsteps echoing down the halls, I went to my computer to shut down my Internet windows. On the screen was the face of Michael Brown, the teenager killed by Officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri, two weeks ago, and I couldn’t help but see his face mirrored in those of my students who were clambering through my door. Brown’s death was a tragedy, and I feel regardless of whatever circumstances led to the first shot (whether Michael Brown was attacking the officer, or, as Brown’s family claims, it was accidental contact that led to police brutality), the subsequent fatal shots to Brown were only fired because of a deeply held fear in this country of violent AfricanAmerican males. I’m not saying the officer was a racist by any means, but rather, we as a country both actively and indirectly perceive African-American males to be violent criminals, and young men are dying because of it. We live in an incredibly scary time. This country is too divided. We’ve pushed ourselves farther and farther to the extremes, as fear-mongering politicians have been raiding the centrists for decades, sowing discord in the place of unity. This needs to stop, but where is the end? For so long, we’ve sat on the laurels of Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks as their accomplishments withered with time. There are no civil rights leaders anymore for this generation. The Revs. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are too commercialized and out of touch with this generation to be anything more than a mouthpiece for someone else’s agenda of lukewarm change. Students and young minds have been the voices of change for the past 230 years, and the nation needs young men and women leading a new movement. Hate, oppression, ignorance, prejudice and discrimination are all heads of the same hydra, sprouting up constantly from fear. Fears of the other, fears of difference and fears of “un-Americanness” have ruled this country for too long. Lynn Sacco, Ph.D, once told me that the brilliance in Karl Rove was that he made elections about issues that only the far ends of the political spectrum would want to vote on, and fear is his (and those that follow his plans) weapon. Fear is the only weapon of mass destruction that we’ve found since 9/11. Our country is filled to the max with fascists wearing the skins of dead elephants. While young men and women will take to the streets to protest Brown’s death, ultimately, nothing will get done since protests like these peter out as our 24/7 news cycle jumps to another war, another plane crash or another headline. Cornel West wrote in “Race Matters” that the difference between today and the Civil Rights era of the ‘60s is today we lack cross-national “genuine humility” and “authentic anger.” We need to be angry, we need to have a sense of interconnectedness, but instead, we let a social construct like race bar us from making significant changes in the world. Ferguson is a reminder that there is still passion in the world, and anger and outrage; we just need to harness it. I wrote this letter because I looked at my students and grew hopeful. With them in my heart, and the thought of students on this campus as well, I think change may come, but not easily. It’ll require us, as Americans, to sit down, cut the crap and talk honestly and openly about how we’ve run ourselves into the arms of anti-intellectualism, anti-equality and anti-progressivism. That’s the conversation we need to have as a campus, and a country, so there are no more Michael Browns in anyone’s classrooms.

In defense of financial regulation City Cents by

Jonathan Martin My friend Drew hates powdered donuts. Not all donuts, just powdered ones. This hatred stems from the time he accidentally ate a powdered donut that was several years expired. How that donut was still intact, I’m not so sure. What I do know is that it certainly left a bad taste in his mouth, and he hasn’t been able to enjoy one since. A lot of people experience the “donut” phenomenon of association where something that was once enjoyable becomes attached to a negative feeling. From that moment on, you can’t view that once pleasant thing the same way as you once did. For some people, it’s a very specific drink that they used to love, until one night they loved it a little too much. It’s a song they used to listen to with their significant other until that “other” suddenly wasn’t so significant. Well, the way Drew feels about powdered donuts is the way I feel about the financial system. Before the recession, the United States was experiencing plenty of job and income growth; then the bubble burst, and it took a huge toll on the American economy. What happened in the recession was a systematic plot by a highly financed oligarchy that took on too much risk at the expense

tion is the thought of losing our capitalistic society. I’ll let Ayn Rand have a small victory on this thought. Companies and individuals should reserve the right to make choices as they see fit and to act in their best interest. However, regulation does not have to entail government control; it can also be a simple system of checks and balances for the industry. In short, activity threatened by greed and irresponsibility cannot be regulated by the same people who struggle with it. Self-regulation is a concept void of any reliable system of checks and balances. While federal regulation can certainly vary along the spectrum of how much control the government actually has, it finds its true value as an effective system of accountability. While I’m not sure if you’ll ever be able to enjoy that drink or that memorable song ever again, we have an opportunity to be able to see our financial system and economy in a more positive light. In fact, this summer our job growth surpassed numbers that we haven’t seen since before the recession. However, let’s not be so naive as to think that all our problems are solved. Markets can be a little messy at times, but the safeguards of regulation are needed to keep them from becoming completely rotten – kind of like that powdered donut.

You are a million things Scarlett’s Web by

Scarlett Miles One of the most important lessons I’ve learned in the past two years is that we cannot depend on other people for happiness or love. There will be people in life that bring us utter joy, and that is one of the most wonderful things to experience. However, there will also be people who do not realize how truly wonderful you are. When we depend on those types of people for happiness, we are only hurting ourselves. How do we avoid this type of heartache? It isn’t about not caring what people think of you or acting like something doesn’t bother you. It’s about much more than that; not caring about someone less, but loving yourself more. We have to learn to love ourselves unconditionally. If there is anyone in this entire world that deserves your love and acceptance, it is you. Not some boy or

of the average American. The worst part about some of the executives at the financial firms that engineered the crisis? They were the same ones that made some serious money from it. Joseph Cassano, an executive at American International Group Inc. who heavily advocated the credit-default swaps that prompted an eventual $128 billion bailout from the government, made $280 million in the eight years leading up to the crisis. In 2008, at the peak of the crisis, Cassano received a bonus of $38 million. Whether you believe these executives’ actions to be criminal or not is up to you (the United States Department of Justice and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission certainly didn’t seem to think so). The point here is that there are strong incentives in the financial industry that promote people, and even entire companies, to act purely in their own best interests, sometimes at the expense of their own clients. While I might agree with Gordon Gekko that “greed is good,” I have to draw the line somewhere. Greed and incentives without limitations or deterrents are a dangerous thing, especially as they pertain to money. Luckily, there’s a third player in this game: the federal government. This is the entity that can put departments and commissions in place to regulate an industry that could cripple an economy seemingly overnight. Just ask Bank of America about the issue of deterrents. They are currently facing a $16.65 billion dollar settlement because of their role with mortgages leading up to the financial crisis. A common fear of government regula-

girl you think is cute, and not your friends either. How can you expect to fully love and accept others if you cannot do the same for yourself? What did you see when you looked in the mirror in the morning? Did you notice things you wish you could change? Everyone has physical aspects they would like to alter about themselves. We are human, after all. Maybe you think your nose is a little big, or your cheeks are a little too rosy (aka: me). What about everything that makes you so beautiful? Those imperfections that you want to change so badly, that you think are such negative aspects of yourself, they are beautiful to so many people. Someone who loves you unconditionally and wishes you could only realize how flawless you truly are knows that your imperfections make you even more beautiful! These are the people that we are lucky to find ourselves surrounded with. Our physical aspects do not make us who we are. Age, weight, shape, height and name -- these things are irrelevant to who we truly are. They make us how we appear to other people, but they do not create our personalities. You are so much more than your imper-

fections. You’re the dreams and goals that you have. You’re the thoughts that you think and the things you believe in. You are not where you are from, who you were however many years ago or the mistakes you’ve made. You are where you are going, who you have grown to be and the lessons you’ve learned. You are a million things. There are millions of wonderful, beautiful things that make up who you are. The people that fail to see those things, the people that only see the things that you are not, are the reason we need to learn to have complete confidence in ourselves. Why should we let one person’s opinion of us control how much we appreciate ourselves just the way we are? That’s one person! I have learned a lot about others and myself in the past few years. One of those is how to love myself and embrace my imperfections. If we can’t love our imperfections then how can we expect others to? Scarlett Miles is a freshman in communication studies.

Vols hopeful ‘improved’ team speed enough to keep Aggies’ Keeton at bay Dargan Southard

Assistant Sports Editor (@dsouth16)

Andrew Bruckse • Tennessee Athletics Junior defensive end/linebacker Curt Maggitt participates in a drill during the Vols’ practice at Haslam Field on Aug. 21.

FOOTBALL continued from Page 1 In the last five years, Utah State has hit the road to play USC, Wisconsin, Auburn, Oklahoma and Texas A&M. While they lost all five contests, they lost only by a combined 24 points – the largest margin of defeat being the 8-point defeat to Texas A&M back in 2009. “They’ve played in front of some opposing crowds that are on par with ours,” senior quarterback Justin Worley said. “The intimidation level from our fans won’t be as much because they’ve had the experience and they have a senior quarterback and an older group of guys.” The same, however, can’t be

said about the 18 and 19-yearold players donning the orange and white. “It’s the game of the unknowns,” Jones said. “Utah State is going to come out and give us something that we haven’t seen on video whether it is offense, defense or special teams, and those are the nuances of playing the first game, and when you have a veteran team, they can usually adapt and adjust right away. That is one of our concerns. “We will have some new wrinkles in our offensive and defensive systems too. It just comes down to execution. We have to be able to control the controllables. That is our effort, being assignment sound, and simple alignment.” Regardless, Jones expects his

team to be ready come Sunday night. He also expects them to have their emotions in check by the time they buckle up their chinstraps and take to the field. “I don’t ever want a football team that plays on emotions,” the second-year coach said. “Emotion goes highs and lows. There are peaks and there are valleys. I want a straight-lined football team that plays with passion and energy. “There is a difference between passion and energy and emotion. I don’t like emotional football teams because they are up and they are down, they are on that roller coaster. I just want a team that is just straight-lined, handles the task at hand and gets better each and every day.”

It began inauspiciously on the legs of Florida backup quarterback Tyler Murphy. Nearly two months later, the end finally arrived with a riveting ground performance from Auburn’s Nick Marshall — but not before South Alabama’s Ross Metheny, South Carolina’s Connor Shaw and Missouri’s Maty Mauk took their own shots along the way. As the 2013 season progressed, the running quarterback quickly became a glaring weakness for the Tennessee defense, which surrendered historic rushing days to these aforementioned signal callers and thus spent most of the offseason clamoring for more team speed. But with Utah State’s dual-threat prodigy Chuckie Keeton abruptly greeting the Volunteers in Sunday’s 2014 season opener, UT won’t have the luxury of a trial run in determining if their offseason pleas have indeed come true. “We’ll find out in a hurry,” Vols head coach Butch Jones said at Monday’s press luncheon. “I’d like to think we’re much more athletic on the defensive side of the ball. We have improved our team speed, but to simulate Chuckie Keeton in practice is a challenge in and of itself.” In 12 games last season, opposing quarterbacks scampered for more than six yards a carry — 701 yards on 115 attempts — and punched in eight ground scores against defensive coordinator John Jancek’s defense. Two signal callers torched UT’s defense to the tune of 100-yard rushing days.

Another turned to his legs for a late game-winning touchdown. So in trying to avoid a similar performance from the Heisman Trophy candidate Keeton, Jones and company are pulling out all the stops to try and emulate the Aggies signal caller, who’s rushed for 860 yards and 10 touchdowns in his last 19 contests. “It will be Joshua Dobbs at times, you may even see Evan Berry back there and you may even see Alton Howard,” Jones offered up as potential Keeton clones for the Vols’ scout team. “The great thing is we have a Joshua Dobbs package with a lot of these that they do. We have an Alton Howard package as well. So again, there will be some carry over where we are not inventing anything new.” The Curt comeback: After missing the majority of recent football activities — most notably the Aug. 16 open practice — with a sprained right ankle, defensive end/ linebacker Curt Maggitt was pegged as a ‘full-go’ for Sunday’s season opener. And with it being nearly two years since the redshirt junior last meaningfully graced the Neyland Stadium grass — Maggitt tore his ACL on Nov. 10, 2012, during an overtime loss to Missouri — Jones is anxious to finally implement the junior’s defensive versatility. “We’ll move him around,” Jones said. “We’ll ask a lot from him from playing outside linebacker to being down (on the line). Again, he adds a whole other element to our defense, and we are going to need that. “Even though he hasn’t played in a year, that leadership intangibles that he brings — the calmness, the energy level — now to have

that on the field is going to be extremely beneficial for us defensively.” ‘Consistent’ Cam thriving on special teams: Despite having all three punt returners — running back Devrin Young, wide receiver Jacob Carter and sophomore Devaun Swafford — back from last season, Jones opted for a fresh face on special teams as cornerback Cameron Sutton is listed as the top punt returner on UT’s Week 1 depth chart. “He’s been consistent every time he’s gone back,” Jones said. “He consistently catches the football. I’ll still say it, I think that’s one of the hardest jobs in all of sports is to catch a punt — with 40 yards over four-second hang time and nine or 10 guys running down field trying to tackle you. “And the concentration involved to be able to catch that punt, making good decisions with the football. And so he’s just had a very high level of consistency each day.” Secondary still shuffling: Even though UT is expected to line up primarily in a 4-2-5 defensive scheme this season, Monday’s depth chart was released with the Vols in a 4-3 set. This maneuver puts Justin Coleman at the cornerback position, but when UT does ultimately shift to the 4-2-5, the senior is projected to slide to nickel — leaving one cornerback spot still up for grabs. On Monday, that particular battle, which has been between freshman Emmanuel Moseley and redshirt sophomore Michael Williams all fall, remained incomplete. “Right now, we will wait and see,” Jones said. “Both of them are basically 1A and 1B, and we’re going to let them competitively sort it out this week of preparation.”
