The particulars
Location: The place where WWE’s Kane has been elected mayor...aka Knoxville, Tenn.
Conference: SEC
Record: 4-8
Head Coach: Jeremy Pruitt (First year)
Biggest Offseason News: After a season that was a dumpster fire, resulting in the dismissal of Butch Jones, the three-ring circus continued to say the least. A mismanaged hiring process that included the Vols being turned down by multiple targets, the hiring of Greg Schiano being aborted following backlash from fans, not to mention the firing of athletics director John Currie finally resulted in Phil Fulmer replacing him and hiring Jeremy Pruitt as head coach.
