Episode Details

Tennessee Volunteers shake up their defense with transfer portal superlatives—can Amare Campbell and Chaz Coleman anchor a revamped defense under Jim Knowles? Fresh faces like Dejuan Lane and Kayin Lee promise experience and versatility, but is Tennessee doing enough at cornerback to compete in the SEC?

Eric Cain breaks down Tennessee’s crucial offseason additions, weighing the impact of Campbell's leadership and Coleman’s sky-high upside. The episode features insider insight from Locked on Buff’s Kevin Borba on Colorado transfers Ryan Staub and Isaiah Hardge, exploring Staub’s “two-minute drill magic” and Hardge’s multi-position potential. Throwback Thursday with Noah Taylor revisits Bill Battle’s 1970 comeback win over UCLA, drawing parallels to today’s gritty Vols. Hot topics include defensive upgrades, quarterback battles, positional depth, and the importance of flexibility for the Volunteers’ championship ambitions.
