This is an important spring for the Tennessee Volunteers, as a lot of hype surrounds the football program entering the 2016 season.
That's why it's vital that the Vols stay healthy.
Well, the good news is they're not quite as banged up as they were last spring, but they aren't exactly healthy, either. Coach Butch Jones noted at his introductory spring press conference that 11 Vols won't be available throughout March and April drills.
Some of those players, such as junior All-SEC defensive end Derek Barnett and junior star guard Jashon Robertson, aren't such big deals.
