Tennessee Football: Vols Lose Valuable Tight Ends/Special Teams Coach Mark Elder

One of the biggest reasons to believe in Tennessee football under Butch Jones has been the play of special teams, especially this year.

That was also a selling point for how great the Vols could be next year, with everybody back. Trevor Daniel is an elite punter, Aaron Medley has finally developed into an elite kicker, and Alvin Kamara and Cameron Sutton are elite returners while Evan Berry is All-American worthy.

That much of a complete unit is a valuable asset to have. But now, Jones and Co. are tasked with keeping it at the same level due to the departure of Mark Elder.
