Rebounding Reversal Was Key To Florida Win, Ending Two-Game Skid After being out-rebounded in each of the three games leading up to Sunday’s win over Florida (38.3 rpg to 32.7 rpg), Tennessee finally got back to hitting the boards with a purpose against the Gators ... The Vols won the battle of the boards 41-32 against Florida and ended a rare two-game losing skid ... UT owns a +1.8 rebounding margin overall this season but is just barely being outrebounded in SEC play (36.8 rpg to 36.7 rpg) ... In SEC games, the Vols are getting 36.4 percent of their rebounds on the offensive glass. Pearl Teams With Donovan To Raise $60,000 For OUTLIVE Initiative On the eve of Tennessee’s win over Florida (Jan. 30), Gators head coach Billy Donovan was kind enough to join Bruce Pearl at the Knoxville Marriott for a social fundraiser to benefit UT’s OUTLIVE initiative to fight cancer ... The cost to attend the social was $1,000 per couple, and the event raised $60,000 ... All money raised goes directly to UT Medical Center’s Cancer Institute.

Steven Pearl Answering The Bell Junior forward Steven Pearl has seen his minutes increase from an average of 3.0 in UT’s first 12 games to an average of 10.3 in the Vols’ last eight games ... Pearl totaled five points and four rebounds in the Auburn win on Jan. 14, he scored a career-high six points at Georgia Jan. 23 and he logged a career-high four steals in just 12 minutes during the win over Florida on Sunday ... At 6-5, the Knoxville native often finds himself checking much larger players in the frontcourt ... Pearl boasts great physical strength and a high basketball IQ. Pearl’s Conference Success Is Staggering In his 17 full seasons as a college head coach, Bruce Pearl’s teams have finished first or second in their conference 14 times, and he’s never had a team finish worse than third in its league ... Of his three third-place finishes, the two at Southern Indiana led to an NCAA round of 16 appearance (1998) and a national championship (1995). Vols 2-0 This Season On ESPN2 UT is 2-0 on ESPN2 this season and 6-4 on ESPN2 during the Bruce Pearl era.

A Lot Has Changed Since September Back in late-September, it was anticipated that the Vols would be returning 95.4 percent of their scoring and 94.8 percent of their rebounding from a season ago ... UT’s current roster, however, looks much different than it did then ... After suffering a sudden cardiac arrest on Sept. 28, sophomore forward Emmanuel Negedu had an internal cadriac defibrillator implanted on Oct. 6 and it was announced that he would be inactive this season ... Senior combo guard Josh Tabb left the program on Oct. 28 to be near his sick mother ... Then Tennessee’s most versatile player and last season’s top scorer and assists man, Tyler Smith, was dismissed from the team on Jan. 8 following an off-the-court incident on New Year’s Day ... Backup center Brian Williams remains on indefinite suspension for his involvement in that same incident ... Given those circumstances, the season-ending knee injury walk-on point guard Michael Hubert suffered in practice in December is amplified ... What remains, is only 64.5 percent of last season’s scoring and 61.1 percent of last season’s rebounding.
UT Leads SEC In Wins Since 2005-06 Tennessee’s 50 SEC wins since the 2005-06 season are the most in the conference over that period ... The Vols are the only SEC squad to record double figure league wins in each of the last four years (regular season).

Scoring Offense (Understandably) Down 9 Pts. Tennessee’s scoring offense has dipped since the New Year’s Day incident that led to the suspensions/dismissal of four contributors ... In the 12 games prior to the incident, the Vols averaged 81.4 ppg ... But that average has dipped to 72.4 ppg in the eight games since—which include six victories. What Was Missing During 7-Game Win Streak? The four Vols who didn’t play during the team’s seven-game win streak from Dec. 31 through Jan. 19 had previously combined to average 79.3 minutes played per game—or 19.8 minutes per player ... The four also accounted for 32.2 points, 14.7 rebounds and 7.8 assists per game through UT’s first 12 contests. Pearl’s Vols Have Enjoyed 27 Weeks In AP Top 10 Tennessee has spent 27 weeks* in the top 10 of the Associated Press poll during the tenure of fifth-year head coach Bruce Pearl ... Seven of those weeks saw the Vols residing in the AP top five, with UT reaching a high of No. 1 the week of Feb. 25, 2008, after a road win at then-top-ranked Memphis. *AP preseason poll is counted as just one “week”
Up Next: South Carolina Tennessee returns to Knoxville to host South Carolina Saturday at 6 p.m. ... The Gamecocks under second-year head coach Darrin Horn are 13-8 (4-3 SEC) this season, including a 1-5 mark in true road games ... The Volunteers lead the all-time series with the Gamecocks 31-23, dating to 1927 ... UT owns a 20-7 edge when the series is played in Knoxville, and the Vols have won seven straight against South Carolina in Thompson-Boling Arena. Noteworthy Defensive Nuggets • Tennessee held UNC Asheville without a field goal for the first 16:53 of the game on Nov. 17. • Tennessee also held the Bulldogs to .239 shooting from the field (16-of-67) and .063 shooting from long range (1-of-16). • In the Nov. 20 rout of East Carolina, the Vols turned 35 ECU turnovers into 50 points. • On Dec. 23 vs. North Carolina A&T, UT posted its second-highest steals total in program history (21) while forcing 24 Aggies turnovers. • In the Vols’ win at Memphis on Dec. 31, the Tigers didn’t manage their first field goal until 4:38 had ticked off the clock. • Tennessee held Auburn to 18 points in the second half and just six two-point baskets the entire game on Jan. 14. • UT is sporting a +5.9 turnover margin (third in the country), and only three times has an opponent shot better than 50 percent in a game (East Carolina, Southern California and Vanderbilt).
Chism Among Winningest Vols Ever Tennessee senior Wayne Chism has been a part of 92 victories during his career thus far on Rocky Top (92-33, .736) ... Last year’s four-year seniors (Ryan Childress and walk-ons Tanner Wild and Justin Jackson) earned 98 total wins during their careers and stand as the winningest Vols of all-time in terms of total victories* ... Chism has 10 regularseason games remaining, as well as any postseason games, to surpass his predecessors as the winningest player in school history. *not counting wins durings players’ redshirt year
Chism Rising In UT’s Rebounding Records Book Senior center Wayne Chism has 807 career rebounds and ranks seventh on UT’s all-time list ... He is one of only three Vols ever to grab 800 rebounds and block 125 shots ... Chism last year enjoyed his finest rebounding season, snagging 273 boards in 34 games (8.0 rpg) ... Current Los Angeles Lakers scout Gene Tormohlen (1956-59) is UT’s career rebounding leader with 1,113 ... For a complete list of UT’s all-time rebounding leaders, see Page 8. Chism Sixth On UT’s Career Blocks List Wayne Chism also is ascending on UT’s career blocked shots list, as he currently has 132 blocks in his career ... That total is good enough for sixth on the school’s all-time list ... Chism blocked a seasonhigh five shots vs. Vanderbilt on Jan. 27 ... He tied a UT single-game record with six blocks last season at Kansas. Maze A Cousy Candidate Senior Bobby Maze is one of five SEC point guards listed among the initial 72 candidates for the 2010 Bob Cousy Award presented by The Hartford Financial Services ... Named for Hall of Famer Bob Cousy, the award recognizes college basketball’s top point guard ... A native of Suitland, Md., Maze averages 8.9 points and 3.4 assists per game while owning an SEC-best 3.0 assist/turnover ratio this season ... Maze was UT’s starting point guard for each of the two highest single-game assists totals in school history (34 vs. UNC Asheville this season, and 32 vs. Chattanooga last season). Records Book Rewritten Against UNC Asheville In a 124-49 blowout of UNC Asheville on Nov. 17 in Knoxville, Tennessee set new single-game school records for points (124) and assists (34) while tying the record for 3-pointers made (16) ... UT’s 75-point margin of victory was second in school history and the largest of the Bruce Pearl era ... The 124 points was a Thompson-Boling Arena record (any team) ... It was the most points ever allowed by the Bulldogs and also their largest margin of defeat in school history ... While it’s unknown if it was a record, Asheville went 16:53 without a field goal to open the game, which incidentally was Pearl’s 100th win with the Volunteers.

Noting the Volunteers Bench • Nine Vols average at least 15 minutes played per game. • No Vol ranks in the top 10 in the SEC in minutes played. The Descent To The Summitt Reserved primarily for SEC games and big-time non-conference clashes, one of Tennessee’s newest basketball traditions took hold during Bruce Pearl’s first season as head coach (2005-06) ... The idea of then-senior point guard C.J. Watson (now with the Golden State Warriors), the Volunteers took the floor before tipoff against Florida on Jan. 21, 2006, not from the locker room on court level, but rather by descending through the stands from the concourse separating the upper and lower levels of Thompson-Boling Arena ... Tennessee defeated the second-ranked Gators (who were the nation’s last undefeated team coming into the game following losses by Duke and Pitt earlier in the day) 80-76 that day to usher in the new tradition in style ... Most crowd-descent entrances see the Vols walk down through the student section in the southwest corner of the arena (across from the UT bench). Pearl Receives Prestigious Local Honor Bruce Pearl received the prestigious “Knoxville Award” on Dec. 10 during the 2009 Knoxville Award Luncheon ... The award recognizes individual contribution to the community and was created in 1994 to encourage volunteerism, philanthropy and community involvement ... Past winners include CEOs, U.S. Senators and even legendary Lady Vols head coach Pat Summitt.
Pearl Logs His 100th Win At Tennessee With UT’s win over UNC Asheville on Nov. 17, Bruce Pearl became the second-fastest men’s basketball coach in UT history to win 100 games with the Vols ... His 100th UT win came in his 137th game with the Big Orange ... Only John Mauer (193847) reached 100 wins at UT faster (131 games) ... Pearl became one of only four active SEC coaches with 100 victories at their current school, and he reached the mark faster than the three others: Billy Donovan (154 games), Rick Stansbury (158 games) and Kevin Stallings (179 games). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Vols Visit UT Medical Center Cancer Institute The Vols used their day off on Dec. 16 to visit patients at the UT Medical Center Cancer Institute ... Coach Bruce Pearl and the entire team spent time talking to patients, posing for pictures and signing autographs ... “It’s important that those who are blessed give back,” Pearl said. “Our guys are out of class right now, so this was a great opportunity for them to come visit the patients.” Negedu Inactive This Season After Sudden Cardiac Arrest, ICD Implant The Vols are without the services of arguably their most athletic player this season, as sophomore forward Emmanuel Negedu is inactive for the entire year ... A native of Kaduna, Nigeria, Negedu went into sudden cardiac arrest Sept. 28 on UT’s indoor football practice field ... Senior associate athletic trainer Chad Newman used an automatic external defibrillator (AED) to revive Negedu ... Following a stay at UT Medical Center and a visit to The Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio, Negedu had a sub-pectoral internal cardiac defibrillator (ICD) implanted on Oct. 6 ... Negedu’s long-term athletic career remains in question, but he remains on full scholarship at UT.

Full-Time Coaching Staff Intact For Fourth Straight Season Bruce Pearl’s full-time coaching staff, which includes associate head coach Tony Jones and assistants Steve Forbes and Jason Shay, is in its fourth season completely intact ... The group has never failed to lead the Vols to 20 wins or a berth in the NCAA Tournament ... Director of Basketball Operations Ken Johnson is in his fifth season on staff ... Mark Pancratz was promoted during the summer from video coordinator to the position of “assistant to the head coach,” and former graduate manager Aaron Green filled the resulting void at video coordinator ...

Pearl Leading Charge for King’s HOF Induction UT head coach Bruce Pearl is one of many voices nationwide voicing their support for Bernard King to be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame ... Pearl’s take: “Bernard King should be in the basketball hall of fame in Springfield. One of the things that I’m committed to is to put forth everything that is required.” ... A three-time firstteam All-America and three-time SEC Player of the Year, King led the SEC in scoring in all three of his seasons at Tennessee ... A Brooklyn, N.Y., native, King was a four-time NBA All-Star and averaged 22.5 points per game during his professional career ... Eight times he scored 50 or more points in an NBA game ... King is the NBA’s 22nd all-time leading scorer (19,655 points) and the seventh-leading scorer in UT history (all six Vols ahead of him played four years). King Helps Vols Rally ‘Round The Family When the Vols were struggling to deal with upsetting off-court issues in early January, one famous member of the Tennessee Family was there to give the team a lift ... Bernard King spoke to the team during its shootaround the day of the Charlotte game (the first game following the suspensions) ... “In life, we all fall down,” King said. “The challenge is not in the pain that occurs in the fall. The challenge is in the pain of getting up.” ... King also attended UT’s Jan. 23 game at Georgia.
Vols Land Marquette Transfer Maymon Forward Jeronne Maymon (pronounced jur-ON MAY-min) enrolled at UT in mid-January after transferring from Marquette following the fall semester ... The true freshman from Madison, Wis., is eligible to practice with the Vols immediately but can not suit up for UT until the conclusion of the fall term next season ... Maymon appeared in nine games for the Golden Eagles early this season, averaging 4.0 points and 4.2 rebounds while shooting 48.1 percent from the floor. Pearl Has Led UT To Three East Division Titles Despite playing in a division that boasts the NCAA’s all-time winningest program (Kentucky) and a Florida program that claimed two of the last four national championships, Tennessee has won three SEC Eastern Division crowns under fifth-year head coach Bruce Pearl. Woolridge Duo May Be Unique In Hoops History The father-son duo of Orlando and Renaldo Woolridge may be the only such duo in NCAA Division I history to each play against and defeat the No. 1-ranked team in the country ... While at Notre Dame, Orlando played in four wins over top-ranked teams, beating Marquette in 1977-78, DePaul in 1979-80 and Kentucky and Virginia in 1980-81 ... Orlando made a 17-foot turnaround shot to beat Virginia at the buzzer and had 12 points and nine rebounds in that game, similar to the 14 points and 8 rebounds his son, Renaldo, had against Kansas on Jan. 10. Newman Named Athletic Trainer of the Year Tennessee senior associate athletic trainer Chad Newman was named “Collegiate Athletic Trainer of the Year” by the Tennessee Athletic Trainer’s Society (TATS) Jan. 17 during the organization’s annual meeting at Opryland in Nashville ... Newman is in his 14th year with the basketball program ... Last September, Newman was instrumental in reviving sophomore Emmanuel Negedu after Negedu collapsed following a sudden cardiac arrest ... Newman successfully administered the use of an AED and CPR until emergency medical services arrived on-site ... Also last fall, Newman authored an article about former Vol Chris Lofton’s successful return from cancer entitled “The Toughest Opponent,” that was published in Training & Conditioning Magazine.
Pearls Enjoyed Golden Summer in Israel Tennessee head coach Bruce Pearl fulfilled one of his professional dreams this past summer as he led Maccabi USA’s Open Men’s Basketball Team to a gold medal at the 18th World Maccabiah Games in Israel ... Maccabi USA’s overtime victory over Israel in the gold-medal game gave the U.S. just its third gold medal at the quadrennial Games in the last 24 years, as teams from nations such as France, Israel and Russia have risen to prominence in recent years ... In its six contests at the Maccabiah Games, the U.S. Maccabi Team outscored its opponents by an average of 35.8 points per game (104.8 to 69.0) en route to a 5-1 record ... UT forward Steven Pearl starred on the American squad, as did Dan Grunfeld, son of two-time Tennessee All-America honoree Ernie Grunfeld ...

OUTLIVE Initiative Returns For Round 2 The Tennessee basketball program’s OUTLIVE initiative raised more than $93,000 last season for cancer research and prevention education ... It also helped the UT Medical Center Cancer Institute provide more than 2,500 free cancer screenings throughout East Tennessee .... This season, the Vols are planning an OUTLIVE “orange-out” for the home game against Kentucky on Feb. 27 ... OUTLIVE t-shirts are now on sale ... The highly successful OUTLIVE initiative was the idea of current graduate manager Brooks Savage, who was inspired to action after witnessing the impact cancer had on the UT basketball team (Bruce Pearl’s mother is a cancer survivor; former Vol Tyler Smith’s father passed after a battle with lung cancer; former Vol Chris Lofton quietly and courageously underwent treatment for testicular cancer during his senior season in 2007-08).

(Singing) Voice Of The Vols: Jacqui Pearl Tennessee basketball home games literally are a family affair, with Bruce Pearl’s two oldest children, Jacqui and Steven, playing an active role ... While Steven suits up as a junior forward for the Vols, Jacqui is well known among the UT faithful for her outstanding singing voice ... Since Bruce Pearl took over the UT program in 2005-06, Jacqui has sung The National Anthem at 26 home basketball games and the Vols are 20-6 (.769) in those contests ... Jacqui typically takes the mic for the home-opener each season as well as a few “big games” along the way ... She has sung prior to wins over teams such as Kansas, Florida, Memphis, Ohio State, Temple and Vanderbilt ... So far this season, she has sung the anthem before the Austin Peay, Kansas, Vanderbilt and Florida games. McRae, Golden & Harris Sign With UT; Vols’ Recruiting Class Ranked No. 4 By Rivals During the November early-signing period, UT inked three highly touted prospects ... With the signings of guards Jordan McRae and Trae Golden, along with power forward Tobias Harris, Tennessee’s 2010 recruiting class is ranked No. 4 nationally by Rivals.com ... A 6-foot-6, 180-pound shooting guard, McRae is a senior at Liberty County High School ... As a junior last year at LCHS, McRae averaged 23 points per game and earned 2008-09 honorable mention All-State honors from both the Georgia Sports Writers Association and the Atlanta Journal Constitution ... Scout.com and ESPN’s Scouts, Inc., both rank the rangy and explosive McRae as the sixth-best shooting guard in the class of 2010 ... McRae is listed on the ESPNU Top100 chart as the class of 2010’s 29th-best overall prospect ... ... Golden is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound guard from Powder Springs, Ga., who is a senior at McEachern High School ... A 2008-09 Class AAAAA first-team All-State selection by both the Georgia Sports Writers Association and the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Golden is rated by Rivals.com as a four-star prospect and the No. 55 overall prospect nationally in the class of 2010 ... Harris is rated by Rivals.com as the nation’s best forward in the class of 2010 and the country’s No. 5 overall prospect ... The 6-8, 220-pound forward from Half Hollow Hills West High School in Dix Hills, N.Y., averaged 25 points and 12 rebounds per game last season ... All three signees plan to enroll at UT this summer. Vols Signee Harris Named To Naismith Trophy Boy’s High School Watch List Tennessee signee Tobias Harris is among 10 high school seniors named to the Naismith Trophy Boy’s High School Player of the Year Watch List ... The list was selected by leading national basketball journalists, who also form the national voting academy ... Former winners of the Naismith High School Player of the Year award include Jason Kidd, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James ... The award was first presented in 1987 (Dennis Scott).
Legends In The Rafters Four Tennessee basketball legends are memorialized with banners in the Thompson-Boling Arena rafters ... The UT men’s basketball program had never retired a jersey prior to the 2006-07 season, but after nearly 100 years of hardwood history, Bernard King (1975-77) was the first player to earn that distinguished honor ... King’s No. 53 jersey was officially retired during a halftime ceremony at the Feb. 13, 2007, home game against Kentucky (UT won 89-85) ... During that same ceremony, banners honoring longtime head coach Ray Mears (1962-77) and beloved radio “Voice of the Vols” John Ward (1964-99) also were unveiled ... Then on March 2, 2008, Ernie Grunfeld (1974-77) became the second UT player to receive the ultimate honor, when his No. 22 jersey was unveiled in the rafters during halftime of Tennessee’s 63-60 victory over Kentucky.
Tennessee Stands Alone Tennessee is the only Division I school ever to rank in the top five nationally in attendance for football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball in the same year ... UT accomplished that feat for the sixth time in 2008-09.
Unbelievable Increase In Attendance Tennessee’s average home attendance has increased by 8,258 fans per game since Bruce Pearl’s arrival on Rocky Top ... Tennessee’s increase in attendance is higher than the average attendance of 266 Division I programs, including teams from the SEC, ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac 10, Conference USA, WAC, Mountain West and Missouri Valley conferences ... Tennessee ranked fourth nationally with an average of 20,483 fans per home game last season.

Tennessee Ranked Fourth Nationally In Attendance For Third Straight Year Tennessee finished last season ranked fourth nationally in average home attendance for the third straight year, drawing 20,483 fans per game ... UT averaged 20,267 fans per game in 2007-08 and 19,661 in 2006-07 ... UT’s average home attendance last year was the second-highest in school history, trailing only the 20,823 averaged in 1987-88 (first year that Thompson-Boling Arena was open) ... Below is a look at last year’s attendance leaders: School Games Kentucky 18 North Carolina 15 Syracuse 19 Tennessee 15 Louisville 18

Kansas, Kentucky Games Sold Out Tennessee has sold more than 15,000 season tickets for the third straight season ... All single-game tickets for the Kansas (Jan. 10) and Kentucky (Feb. 27) games were sold out in October.
The Volunteers At Thompson-Boling Arena Thompson-Boling Arena is hosting its 23rd season in 2009-10 ... The Vols have won nearly 75 percent of their games in Thompson-Boling Arena and have ranked in the top 10 nationally in attendance 10 times, including last year, when UT ranked fourth nationally with 20,483 fans per game. • Tennessee is 266-92 (.743) in its 23rd season in Thompson-Boling Arena. • Since the 1998 season, the Vols are 166-33 (.834) in Thompson-Boling Arena. • The Vols are 76-24 against SEC teams at home over the last 11 seasons. • Tennessee has won 23 of its last 27 SEC games at Thompson-Boling Arena. • UT has won 97 of its last 106 home games against non-conference opponents. • UT is 36-2 in home games against non-conference opponents under Bruce Pearl. • Tennessee finished both the 2006-07 and 2007-08 seasons with a 16-0 home record. • This is the third straight season in which Sporting News has tabbed Thompson-Boling Arena the “best homecourt advantage” in the Southeastern Conference.
Home Crowds of 20,000 Nothing New For Vols Tennessee has played in front of 37 home crowds of 20,000 or larger during the Bruce Pearl era, including two this season ... 10 of UT’s fifteen home crowds last season were larger than 20,000, with the crowd of 22,326 for the Gonzaga game marking the largest at Thompson-Boling Arena since capacity was reduced from 24,535 to 21,678 prior to the 2007-08 season. Vols Looking To Start New Home Win Streak The Vols are looking to start a new home win streak after suffering their first home loss Wednesday ... After posting back-to-back 16-0 home records in 2006-07 and 2007-08, the Vols turned in an uncharacteristic 10-5 mark at Thompson-Boling Arena last season ... Tennessee’s 37-game home winning streak (the longest in school history and secondlongest in Division I at the time it ended) came to an end on Jan. 7, 2009, when Gonzaga topped the Vols in overtime 89-79 ... Now in his fifth season at UT, Bruce Pearl is 66-8 at Thompson-Boling Arena. Vols Enjoying World-Class Facilities The University of Tennessee invested more than $35 million into its basketball facilities between the end of the 2006-07 campaign and the start of 200708 ... During that eight-month period, UT added a basketball-only practice facility and began the first phase of renovations to Thompson-Boling Arena ... The $19 million first phase of renovations included the addition of 32 luxury suites that are located in the existing north balcony, a loge area just below the luxury suites that includes 166 side court seats, new seats for the entire arena, a $3 million centerhung scoreboard and concourse refurbishments, such as graphics and other amenities ... The renovations took Thompson-Boling’s capacity down from 24,535 to 21,678 ... The Vols’ new state-of-the-art basketball practice facility, Pratt Pavilion, houses two full-size gymnasiums, one for each of the men’s and women’s basketball teams, as well as an athletic training room, weight room and film-study room ... Prior to this season, a pedestrian bridge was constructed leading from the G-10 parking garage to the arena, an elevator was added at the arena’s northwest end as a customer service amenity and new exterior signage has been installed on the building’s facade ... The UT athletics department announced in November that it plans to begin a renovation of the men’s and women’s basketball offices at the arena in April, creating a new and impressive “front door” for the basketball programs. “Chris Lofton Recruiting Room” Dedicated The recruiting lounge in Pratt Pavilion was officially dedicated as the “Chris Lofton Recruiting Room” in the three-time All-America’s honor on Dec. 23 ... Tennessee Fund members Brian and Craig Nelson and Jerry and Nancy Fortner made generous donations to The Campaign for Tennessee Basketball to name the room for Lofton ... A dedication took place before the Vols’ win over North Carolina A&T.

He asks his players to support the other teams at UT as those teams support basketball ... At a Lady Vols basketball game two seasons ago, he joined five of his players as they painted their chests and cheered from the student section ... After Lady Vols’ coach Pat Summitt returned the favor by leading cheers at a men’s game later in the season Pearl said, “It’s a pretty strong family here. How can you lose when you’ve got that kind of family support?” Classroom Commitment Tennessee’s success on the court hasn’t come at the expense of academics ... The Vols have produced 22 SEC Academic Honor Roll selections in Pearl’s four full seasons ...

Tony Jones Associate Head Coach Concordia Univ., 1993 Fifth Season at UT Tony Jones is entering his fifth season as an associate head coach at Tennessee and his ninth on Bruce Pearl’s coaching staff. Jones’ responsibilities include recruiting, scheduling and working with the Vols’ perimeter players. An instrumental force in landing some of the influential players in his team’s successes, he has made in-roads to signing a number of the top players in the nation. In two of his three seasons at Tennessee, Jones helped the Vols sign recruiting classes that have been ranked among the top 10 in the nation and have included the likes of All-SEC performer Wayne Chism and McDonald’s All-America Scotty Hopson. “Tony has prepared himself to be a head coach,” Pearl said. “His experience provides him with a wealth of knowledge, and his ability to communicate has made him an effective teacher.” With Jones helping to build its annual slate of opponents, Tennessee’s schedules have ranked among the nation’s toughest. The Vols have sought to face some of the country’s premier programs, including teams such as Memphis, Gonzaga, Texas, Ohio State and Kansas. Along with such ambitious scheduling—Tennessee’s RPI has been in the top25 each of the last three seasons—comes prominent national exposure, as UT has played 52 games on national television over the past four years. Jones came to Tennessee with 12 seasons of collegiate coaching experience after spending four seasons at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) as an associate head coach. Prior to joining the UWM staff, Jones spent five seasons at Toledo and three years at Buffalo. In his 16 seasons of collegiate coaching, Jones has helped direct his teams to nine postseason tournament bids, including six NCAA Tournament appearances the last seven years. Three times (2005, 2007 and 2008) in the past five years he has coached teams appearing in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. Tennessee has experienced unprecedented success during the four years with Jones on the bench. The Vols have averaged 24.5 wins during those seasons and have won three SEC Eastern Division championships. The 2008 team captured the overall SEC title outright for the first time in 41 years, won a school record 31 games and earned the first No. 1 ranking in school history. Each of his four seasons at UT has resulted in NCAA Tournament appearances, including two trips to the Sweet 16. Two times the Vols have received No. 2 seeds in the NCAA Tournament—the highest in school history. After helping sign a class that was ranked sixth nationally in 2006, Jones was named one of the top recruiters in the nation by Rivals.com. In 2007, Rivals.com ranked Jones as one of the top-five assistant coaches in the nation. Jones got his first taste of coaching at his alma mater, Detroit Southwestern High School, where he served as an assistant varsity coach while also serving as head junior varsity coach from 1986-91. During this time he coached future NBA stars Jalen Rose (Phoenix Suns), Howard Eisley (Denver Nuggets) and Voshon Lenard (Portland Trailblazers), leading them to the mythical USA TODAY national title in 1991. He also served as head coach of Team AAU Michigan for three years (1991-93), posting a 35-1 record and capturing two AAU state championships. Jones was an All-City star at Southwestern and went on to earn All-Conference honors at Fisk University in Nashville. He earned a bachelor’s degree in health care administration from Concordia (Mich.) University. Jones and his wife, Pam, have four children—Tony II, Jamaal, Mercedes and Porscha. His brother, Bill, is a former member of the NBA’s New Jersey Nets and is currently the head coach of the Premier Basketball League’s Detroit Panthers.
Steve Forbes Assistant Coach Southern Arkansas, 1988 Fourth Season at UT Veteran coach Steve Forbes is in his fourth season as a member of the Tennessee staff. “Over the past couple years, Steve has made a tremendous impact on our recruiting,” UT head coach Bruce Pearl said. “But as a former head coach, Steve understands the challenges programs face in all aspects of the game. “Most recruiters are simply that—bring in talent every year, and then go back out on the road. But Steve is different. His strengths are the relationships and levels of trust he’s able to build with our student-athletes. He is a complete coach.” Forbes and Pearl first got to know each other when Pearl was an assistant at Iowa. The Vols have been the direct beneficiaries of the two working together. In the three seasons Forbes has sat alongside Pearl on the Tennessee bench, the Vols have won a total of 76 games and advanced to three consecutive NCAA Tournaments—making back-to-back Sweet 16 appearances in 2007 and 2008. The Vols have led the Southeastern Conference in steals in two of his three seasons on Rocky Top, and in 2008 they also led the league in 3-point field-goal percentage defense by holding teams to just 31.2-percent shooting. The Vols won a school-record 31 games in 2008, and their 14-2 league record gave the school its first outright SEC championship in more than 40 years. Following a 66-62 win at top-ranked Memphis on Feb. 23, 2008, UT earned the first No. 1 ranking in school history. In 2007, his first at Tennessee, Forbes helped direct the Vols to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament with wins over Long Beach State and ACC co-champion Virginia. UT’s 24 wins that year ranked second in school history at the time. Listed as the No. 8 assistant coach in the nation by FOXSports.com, Forbes has played a key role in recruiting top talent to Knoxville. Tennessee’s 2008 recruiting class was highlighted by McDonald’s All-America Scotty Hopson and was ranked seventh in the nation by Rivals.com. Forbes came to Tennessee after spending two seasons at Texas A&M, where he helped turn the Aggies from a team that had posted a 7-21 record the previous season and hadn’t received a postseason invitation in 11 years, to a program that averaged more than 21 wins in his two seasons and advanced to postseason play both years. A&M posted back-to-back seasons with the most Big 12 Conference wins in school history with Forbes on the bench. Texas A&M’s recruiting also benefited from Forbes’ experience, as each of the Aggie’s two recruiting classes during his time in College Station were ranked among the top 10 in the nation. Before joining Billy Gillispie’s coaching staff at Texas A&M, Forbes coached at Illinois State (2003-04) and spent three years at Louisiana Tech (2000-03), where he helped sign two nationally-ranked recruiting classes, including a top-10 class in 2003. In 2002 the Bulldogs posted a 22-10 record and went 2-1 in the National Invitation Tournament, their first postseason appearance in 10 years. In 1998 Forbes joined the Idaho coaching staff as an assistant coach before being promoted to associate head coach for the 1998-99 season. In his first season, the Vandals improved to 16-11 and signed a nationally-ranked recruiting class. Forbes compiled a 68-28 record in three years (1995-98) as the head coach at Barton County Community College in Great Bend, Kan. During his three seasons competing in the Jayhawk Conference, the Cougars produced three All-Americas, twice finished the season with a national ranking and earned victories over 15 nationally-ranked teams. After spending two years (1989-91) as an assistant coach at Southwestern Community College in Creston, Iowa, Forbes was promoted to head coach in March 1991. A native of Lone Tree, Iowa, Forbes graduated from Southern Arkansas University with a degree in secondary education in 1988. Forbes and his wife, Johnetta, have a daughter, Elizabeth, and two sons, Christopher and Johnathon.
Jason Shay Assistant Coach Iowa, 1995 Fifth Season at UT Jason Shay is in his ninth season on Bruce Pearl’s staff and his fifth year at Tennessee. “I’ve known Jason since he was a player at the University of Iowa,” Pearl said. “He has played in this system and believes in this style of basketball. He was an overachiever as a player and has continued to work hard as an assistant coach. His experiences have helped him make tremendous contributions to our players’ individual development. “Jason is my lead scout. He’s been able to take good players and make them better. He knows how to teach the game—both from an individual and a team standpoint.” Shay, who is responsible for recruiting and scouting in addition to administrative duties, came to Tennessee after spending four years on Pearl’s staff at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM). He was an assistant coach for UWM’s two NCAA Tournament appearances after spending his first two seasons as the director of basketball operations for the Panthers. Scouting reports put together by Shay have helped lead the Vols to an average of 24.5 wins per season, an outright SEC championship in 2008, three SEC Eastern Division crowns and four straight NCAA Tournament appearances— including back-to-back Sweet 16s in 1007 and 2008. Shay drew the scouting assignment against top-ranked Memphis in 2007-08, and Tennessee’s 66-62 victory over the Tigers vaulted the Vols into the No. 1 spot in both the Associated Press and ESPN/USA TODAY polls for the first time in school history. Having handled the Florida scout since joining the UT staff, Shay has helped the Vols post a 7-1 record against the Gators over the last four seasons. Shay served as an assistant basketball coach and assistant sports information director at Mercyhurst College in Erie, Pa., before rejoining Pearl at UWM. He helped lead Mercyhurst to a top-five ranking in the NCAA Division II Great Lakes Region while assisting with on-court coaching strategies. Shay also was responsible for individual workouts, the team’s strength program, film exchange, scouting reports and monitoring the academic progress of the student-athletes. Shay played four seasons at the University of Iowa under the tutelage of Dr. Tom Davis. During that time, the Hawkeyes advanced to two NCAA Tournaments and won the 1992 San Juan Shootout. It was in Iowa City where Shay and Pearl first crossed paths, as Pearl was an assistant coach at Iowa from 1986-92. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Health Promotion at Iowa and a master’s degree in Sports Management in 1998 from Western Illinois University. Shay and his wife, Jana, have a daughter, Peija, and a son, Joah.
Ken Johnson Dir. of Basketball Operations College of Idaho, 1993 Fifth Season at UT Ken Johnson is in his fifth season at Tennessee and his 11th year as a member of Bruce Pearl’s staff. Johnson and Pearl first joined forces in 1999 when Johnson came to the University of Southern Indiana as an assistant coach, and the relationship continued when Pearl moved to the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. In the 11 seasons Johnson has assisted Pearl, their teams have combined to post a 240-78 record. “It is really important to surround young people with good role models,” Pearl said. “Ken is a very hard worker who genuinely cares about these kids. He has been with me longer than anyone on my staff and he knows how I expect things to be done. He sets the bar high for our student-athletes and provides them with the guidance and support they require to be successful.” Johnson has seen the Vols succeed both on the court and in the classroom. In 2006-07, UT won the third-most games in school history while advancing to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. Meanwhile, seven Vols were named to the 2006-07 SEC Winter Academic Honor Roll for their work in the classroom. During the 2007-08 season, Johnson kept the Vols focused in the classroom and the community while they compiled the best record in school history (31-5) on the court and placed six players on the SEC Winter Academic Honor Roll. In total during his four years in Knoxville, Tennessee has garnered 18 Academic All-SEC awards. At UWM, Johnson was responsible for working with the Panthers post players while also scouting opponents. During those four seasons, the Panthers posted an 86-38 record and received three postseason invitations, including a trip to the 2005 NCAA Tournament in which they advanced to the Sweet 16. Johnson spent two seasons at USI as an assistant coach where he was responsible for video breakdown, scouting of opposing teams and individual player development. During those two seasons, the Screaming Eagles posted a 51-10 record, won a Great Lakes Valley Conference championship and made two NCAA Division II Tournament appearances. USI earned No. 1 rankings in both of Johnson’s seasons and advanced to the Sweet 16 of the 2000 NCAA Tournament. Prior to joining Pearl’s coaching staff at USI, Johnson spent two seasons as an assistant coach of the Idaho Stampede of the Continental Basketball Association. Johnson began his collegiate playing career at Southwestern Oregon Community College where he was named to the All-Freshman Team in his rookie season. He later earned All-Region honors as a sophomore at Salt Lake Community College. He then moved to College of Idaho where he garnered NAIA District II All-Conference honors. A 1993 graduate of College of Idaho with a degree in physical education, he helped lead the Coyotes to an NAIA District II championship and played for the 1991 NAIA National Championship. Johnson and his wife, Amber, have two daughters, Makenzee Ruth and Kenley Jade.

5 Emmanuel Negedu
SO Forward • 6-7 • 218 Kaduna, Nigeria • Brewster [N.H.] Academy
HEART OF A LION: Negedu
Inactive This Season
Sophomore forward Emmanuel Negedu had a sub-pectoral implantable cardiac defibrillator (ICD) implanted in his chest Tuesday, Oct. 6, 2007, at UT Medical Center. Negedu will not practice or play with the Volunteers during the 2009-10 season. He will, however, remain on full scholarship and will continue to be a valuable part of the UT basketball program. “Emmanuel is such a special young man,” UT head coach Bruce Pearl said. “You don’t come across many like him. He’s faced a tremendously frightening obstacle with unbelievable courage. He is going to be an inspiration to many, and we all feel truly blessed that he’s still here with us.” On Monday, Sept. 28, Negedu suffered a sudden cardiac arrest (ventricular fibrillation) after racing a teammate on the indoor football practice field at Neyland-Thompson Sports Center. The basketball team had recently completed and been dismissed from a group weightlifting session prior to the impromptu race. Tennessee senior associate athletic trainer Chad Newman and director of sports medicine Jason McVeigh were the first medical personnel to arrive at Negedu’s side, and Newman (the basketball team trainer) initiated emergency medical service response. The use of an on-site automatic external defibrillator (AED) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)— both of which were administered by Newman—were necessary to revive Negedu, who regained a pulse and consciousness before being transported via ambulance to UT Medical Center. Negedu was in stable condition during the duration of his hospitalization. He was discharged from UT Medical Center on Thursday, Oct. 1, wearing an external defibrillator vest. He continued to wear the vest until undergoing the implant procedure. From the time of his admission to UT Medical Center through Wednesday, Sept. 30, Negedu underwent a battery of tests. He traveled with his American host family and Newman to Cleveland, Ohio, on Thursday, Oct. 1, to meet with specialists at the Cleveland Clinic. The group returned to Knoxville Oct. 2, and the implant was scheduled that weekend. The ICD is a permanent device that constantly monitors the heart’s rhythm, and when an irregularity occurs, the ICD delivers energy to the heart muscle which returns the heart to its normal rhythm. “I just want to say thanks to all those people that care about me and show me they care,” Negedu said. “I want to say I appreciate everything. “God is going to see me through this. With God, all things are possible. God is always in control.” Upon his enrollment at UT in the summer of 2008, Negedu underwent an echocardiogram and an electrocardiogram (EKG), both of which are part of routine physical examinations for incoming UT student-athletes. No issues were detected on those tests that precluded Negedu’s participation with the basketball team. A native of Kaduna, Nigeria, Negedu played in 33 games as a true freshman last season. The 6-7 forward shot a team-best 80 percent from the free-throw line while averaging 1.9 points and 1.7 rebounds per game. His best performance came Jan. 28 against LSU, during which he totaled 11 points, two rebounds, one assist and one block in 15 minutes of action.
Sudden Cardiac Arrest • According to the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Association, at least 225,972 American lives have been lost this year to sudden cardiac arrest. • SCA is a leading cause of death in the U.S., posting a higher death rate than breast cancer, lung cancer and HIV/ AIDS combined.
