Everyone knew the Athletic Director position at the University of Tennessee was a doozy, but not even Phillip Fulmer could have thought it was going to be this difficult. Tony Vitello and the Tennessee baseball team just wrapped up one of the best seasons on the hill in nearly 15 years.
The team, filled with young talent, exceeded expectations by winning 40 games. That is the most wins in a season since the 2005 team won 46. And, just the fourth time since 2000 a team reached the 40 win mark.
Maybe even more impressive is how dominant the SEC was as a conference.
