JOSH HEUPEL
Tennessee’s Josh Heupel made his rounds in Atlanta on Thursday, as the Vols had their time in the spotlight at SEC Media Days. There have been questions surrounding certain aspects that affect the flow of the game for the Heupel offense, one being ‘injuries’ on the field.

The Tennessee offense had to deal with multiple stoppages on drives because of potential player injuries. Whether that player was actually hurt is a different story itself, but the play stoppage seemed to take a turn for the worse this past year.
The Josh Heupel era at Tennessee started off with a few games he would love to have back. Now, going into year two in Knoxville the expectations are to continue moving this program in the right direction. And though he hasn’t been asked to sign any mustard bottles (yet), he jokingly commented that he would’ve loved to have had a golf ball during that Ole Miss game.
