Homecoming color guard to include alumni Christopher Salvemini Asst. News Editor

The Army ROTC department, otherwise known as the Vol Army, is joining together with their alumni for Homecoming this year. The ROTC Alumni Council, one of only six councils in the UT Alumni Association, requested permission from the ROTC department to have alumni be a part of the color guard. The council invited alumni to be in the color guard in 2014 as well. Homecoming is bringing alumni back from as early as 1951 and putting them on the color guard to march along with the band onto Shield-Watkins Field. The color guard will march onto the field with the U.S. flag, the Tennessee flag and the University of Tennessee flag. “It’s an opportunity to connect the alumni back to the school,” Logan Hickman, the president of the alumni council, said. “In times of old the guards would actually have rifles with ammunition. Of course, our guys won’t have rifles, but they guard the flag against any enemy.” One of the color guard, Ham Carey,

graduated in 1951 with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering. “When you have participation and more people involved, that’s always better for everything,” Carey said. “Homecoming was, back in 1945 to 1950, just another football game to us. I’m sure the alumni came back to school and went to the homecoming activities, but the students didn’t notice anything.” The ROTC Dragoon guards will accompany Carey and the other alumni onto the field. The guards will be wearing traditional 1846 uniforms. Carey was originally a part of the color guard in 1949, when he was a part of the ROTC. “I had five years of ROTC, two in high school and two of basic in the University of Tennessee in ’47 through ’49, and then the Korean War came along, and I was

Ham Carey, alumni back in ROTC for my school year of ’50 through ’51,” Carey said. Carey took experience and skills that he learned from ROTC and applied it to his time in the Korean War. He became sergeant of his platoon in 1948 and won a drill between different platoons, earning him a picture in the local paper. “ROTC helped them take care of themselves and do the best they could. Unfortunately, some people lost their lives in the war, but that’s not because of ROTC,” Carey said. From the time Carey graduated, the student population grew from 7,000 to more than 20,000. The seating in Neyland Stadium also doubled, from 50,000 people to now over 100,000. “As for the education, I hope it’s as good as it ever,” Carey said.

Alumni look forward to historic Homecoming celebration Priya Narapareddy Staff Writer

As years of Homecoming traditions have past, alumni reminisce on their time on Rocky Top as UT celebrates 100 years of Homecoming traditions. Alan Moore described being a student on UT’s campus as a fun experience, and returning to campus as an alumnus during homecoming week as “extraordinarily fun.” Moore graduated from UT with an undergraduate degree in business administration in 2006 and from UT Law in 2010. He is currently the president of UT’s Young Alumni Council. Moore said being an alumnus of UT helps one form an instant connection to others who have shared the same experiences on campus. “When you realize that two folks are alumni of UT, there is an immediate bond that lasts forever,” Moore said. UT is celebrating a century of homecoming celebrations this year, with the theme of “Journey through 100 years of Volunteers.” Homecoming events through the week have included a viewing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, the Rocky Top Royalty Meet and Greet, the Smokey’s Howl Competition, Vol Navy boat races, a comedy show, a car smash and Paint

The Town Orange. Some of Friday’s events will include a UT walking history tour with Jack Neely at noon, the Homecoming parade at 4 p.m., and a homecoming pep rally and bonfire at 9:45 p.m. On Saturday, there will be several tailgates, including the “Party in the Park and Rocky Top Tailgate” at 1 p.m. in Circle Park. Kickoff for the Homecoming football game against Tennessee Tech is at 4 p.m. After the game, a homecoming concert will be held in Market Square at 8 p.m., featuring Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors. Moore said the Young Alumni Council includes UT alumni who have graduated within the last 10 years. He said the council works to keep alumni involved with the university. Moore, who is a third-generation UT graduate, said his parents and all of his grandparents have attended UT. Moore was also a member of the Sigma Chi fraternity as an undergraduate. He said he participated with his fraternity brothers in homecoming events. Today, Moore brings his family to homecoming events, such as the Little Vol Walk. “Last year, my two year-old marched in the parade,” he said. Moore, who said he is a huge football fan, said he also enjoys seeing the Pride of the Southland

Several competing organizations made banners to hang from Neyland Stadium as part of the Banner Drop competition for Homecoming. Alex Phillips • The Daily Beacon band perform the Circle Drill during games. Eric Haag, UT’s senior director of Alumni Programs and Outreach, said UT has also been a major part of his life. Haag received his undergraduate degree from UT in public relations in 2003 and his masters in public relations in 2004. Haag, who has now worked for UT for 11 years, said he grew up going to games with his parents. As a UT alumnus, he said he especially enjoys going to the tailgates and seeing families together.

“Actually being back here is magical for our alumni and anyone who loves the university,” Haag said. Although UT’s law alumni held a reunion in 1911, the first university-wide Homecoming celebration was held in 1916, according to UT archivist Alesha Shumar. Shumar described the 100th Anniversary Homecoming celebration as a time to celebrate See ALUMNI on Page 8

Vols looking for golden opportunity Trenton Duffer

Sports Editor Butch Jones may not go down as the winningest nor the most beloved head coach in Tennessee history. But he will likely go down with some of the most memorable sayings. Jones continued his quotable quest to become captain of the clichés on Wednesday by dropping one of the top “Butchisms” of his career. “The road to success is always under construction,” Jones said. “There are things here and there, and it takes a while to build a successful program that can stand the test of time and is consistent and can sustain success. We have come a long way.” Tennessee’s road to success has faced a few setbacks over the past month in their construction of a championship-caliber team. After beating Georgia on Oct. 1 with a Hail Mary pass to Jauan Jennings, the Vols have seen a steady decline in positive moments. On Oct. 8, the Vols lost a double overtime heartbreaker to Texas A&M. Two days later, the team dismissed starting defensive tackle Danny O’Brien for a “violation of team rules.” On Oct. 13, the University of Tennessee confirmed that wide receiver Preston Williams had been granted his request to transfer. A 49-10 loss to Alabama on Oct. 15 didn’t help things either. But the two most damaging potholes in Tennessee’s “road to success” came in the form of an embarrassing 24-21 loss to South Carolina last week and the transfer of star running back Jalen Hurd on Monday. Players gave their opinion on the Hurd transfer through the week with the main vibe being that players are ready to move on from the incident. “I prefer to only talk about the guys on our team,” defensive end LaTroy Lewis said when asked about Hurd on Wednesday. A players-only meeting on Sunday seemed to bring the team closer together. Although it wasn’t announced fully what was discussed, players seem to be more focused heading into this week. “I think it helped us out alot,” offensive lineman Brett Kendrick said on Monday. “We had some leaders step up and decide we are going to hold each other accountable, and we’re going to be tough on each

The road to success is always under construction. There are things here and there, and it takes a while to build a successful program that can stand the test of time and is consistent and can sustain success. We have come a long way.”

other.” Coach Jones made a few changes to this week’s practice to help the team have “more focus.” One of those changes was cutting music from practice. Although he prefers to hear music during practice, linebacker Darrin Kirland Jr. said on Wednesday that he understands why it was cut. “We need to get back to what we did at the beginning of the season,” Kirkland Jr. said. “(We have to) keep moving forward.” Now Tennessee will have the chance to right the ship and face off against a Tennessee Tech team that likely won’t provide many problems. However, the same was said about South Carolina, and the Vols lost that game. Knowing this, the team isn’t looking past the Golden Eagles. “They provide a great offensive scheme from what I’ve seen so far, and I really enjoy their quarterback,” Kirkland Jr. said. “He’s a bigger guy – really strong-armed. Both of their running backs, (numbers) 23 and 8, really provide great balance on the offense. I’m really excited to get on the field Saturday to see what they actually can do.” On the university’s 100th Homecoming, this Saturday, the Vols (5-3, 2-3 SEC) will take on Tennessee Tech at 4 p.m. Advantages: Quarterbacks: Josh Dobbs has had strides of success this year but has ultimately been inconsistent. He’s completed 57.1 percent of his passes and has 1,686 yards with 15 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Meanwhile, Tech quarterback Michael Birdsong has 1,967 yards with

Butch Jones, head coach

12 touchdowns and six interceptions. However, Birdsong has completed 63.6 percent of his passes and has an efficiency rate of 136.3. Dobbs is 129.6. However, Dobbs has faced much more adversity and far better competition. Advantage: Tennessee Running Backs: Tech’s running backs, Yeedee Thaenrat (8) and Andrew Goldsmith (23), have 572 yards and six touchdowns combined this season. For Tennessee, Jalen Hurd has transferred and Alvin Kamara won’t play with an injury. However, Vols running back John Kelly has looked fantastic in the few games he’s played in, racking up 209 yards on 33 carries and two touchdowns. And Kendrick said on Wednesday that Kelly was “one of the angriest runners” he’s ever seen. Advantage: Tennessee Coaching: Marcus Satterfield is in his first year with the Golden Eagles and has done a fairly decent job, leading his team to a 3-5 start. Butch Jones is facing adversity this year but still has proven he can win. Advantage: Tennessee Division Race: Tennessee needs to win out the rest of the season and have Florida drop two of their final three SEC games against Arkansas, LSU and South Carolina if the Vols want to win the SEC East. And Kentucky seems to be sticking around in the SEC East race, as the Wildcats currently hold onto second place. Florida (6-1, 4-1) takes on Arkansas (5-3, 1-3 SEC) at 3:30 p.m. on CBS. Kentucky (5-3, 4-2) faces Georgia (5-3, 4-2) Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. on the SEC Network.

ALUMNI continued from Page 3 UT’s current achievements and to reflect on the legacy of Volunteers that have come before us. “What remains a constant throughout the years on Homecoming is honoring UT and the people that make it so great,� she said. UT played its first Homecoming football game against Vanderbilt University on November 11, 1916, which ended with a 10-6 victory for the Vols. During this Homecoming celebra-

tion, more than 3,000 UT alumni returned to campus. The first Homecoming events included a cadet battalion drill, an alumni luncheon and automobile rides to the experiment station and Cherokee Farm. In June 1921, Homecoming was associated with the university’s spring commencement. That year, Ayres Hall and Morgan Hall were dedicated during Homecoming. Homecoming did not become an annual event until 1925 because of World War I. From 1925 on, each Homecoming celebration included a football game and a parade. In 1943, however, no game was held because students donated Homecoming funds to the Red Cross

UT traditions over the years have included a Homecoming bicycle race, an annual Homecoming ball, which was held from 1932 to 1980 and Homecoming banners at Neyland Stadium.

A recent Homecoming tradition is the “Homecoming Day of Service,� which was created by The Center for Leadership and Service of the Student Life Division in 2014.

The UT Percussion Ensemble showcased a variety of works at their concert this Wednesday, Nov. 2, including Edgard Varese’s “Ionisation,” Robert Honstein’s “Patter” and Anna Meadors’ “Impulse.” On Sunday, Nov. 6, the program’s newly-launched contemporary chamber group, Ensemble Knox, will make their public debut. This new ensemble consists of all the resident graduate students in the UT Percussion Studies Department and will kick off their first performance with pieces like “b” by Simon Loffler and “Specific Objects” by Michael Maierhof. Adam Lion, a first year graduate student in the UT Percussion Studies Department, has been working with Ensemble Knox all semester. “We have been meeting weekly to

prepare for this concert, though we have had one or two performances already,” Lion said. “We are trying to get outside of UT and perform in different venues in the community so more people in Knoxville can come and see us.” The Emporium Arts Center, where Ensemble Knox will be performing on Sunday, does not see musical performances often. It is designed as an art gallery, which will make for an interesting setting. Colton Morris, another first year graduate student participating in Ensemble Knox, is looking forward to playing in this venue. “We are playing on the main gallery floor, so rather than having our audience sit in rows like you would at a normal concert, they will have the opportunity to stand around us as if we are an art exhibit,” he said. Not only will Ensemble Knox be exploring new venues, but they will also be bringing in a host of guests from around the world for this performance.

Friday, November 4, 2016 • The Daily Beacon “This piece is not played often, so we have the chance to bring new and rarely heard music to the Knoxville community,” Morris said. Sunday’s show will take place at 4 p.m. at the Emporium Arts Center, which is located at 100 S Gay Street. Both of their fall concerts are free and open to the public.
