"On Thursday afternoon, Neyland Stadium was empty, except for a crew of maintenance workers with pressure washers who were blasting the cement walkways.But as fans wandered through the concourse, Tennessee fundraisers hoped they could envision a packed stadium and a winning team — and wanted to buy tickets to be a part of it."

From Bleacher Report

"Another quarterback has hit the market, and this one has the attention of several of college football’s heavy hitters.Connor Brewer was granted his release from Texas and has already heard from a host of FBS programs, including Alabama, Tennessee, Notre Dame and Stanford, according to a report from AZCentral.com.“I’ve had a lot of success,” Brewer said. “I think I still have a chance at that. I felt I’d have a better opportunity at another place. I want to go to a place where I can play sooner.”"

From Red & Black

"The Volunteers posted three consecutive 5-7 seasons under Derek Dooley and decided it was time to say goodbye. Tennessee’s hopes now rest on Butch Jones who posted a 23-14 record in three years at the University of Cincinnati. Jones has spent the offseason working hard on the recruiting trail, and with good results: Tennessee’s 2013 recruiting class finished 20th and the 2014 class is currently ranked No. 1 by Rivals.com. The Vols will also make the move to a 4-3 defensive scheme, a transition that may or may not go smoothly in 2013. But Jones has the offense to worry about as well after losing quarterback Tyler Bray and wide recievers Justin Hunter and Cordarrelle Patterson to the NFL Draft."
