An award for Butch Jones, Tennessee football as Wide Receiver U, and Chamique Holdsclaw lead the Volunteers news on Rocky Top for Friday, Sept. 30, 2016.

Happy Friday everybody! Fans on Rocky Top are trying to come down from the high of the Vols’ win over the Florida Gators last week so they can focus on the Georgia Bulldogs.

But that’s a pretty hard thing to do. Hopefully, the players are remaining focused.

As we get set to bring you the Tennessee football news heading into the weekend, there are some more exciting updates. However, at this point, everything you need to know about the game Saturday is out there.

So enjoy your last day at work before the weekend (unless you work weekends). And sit back and read about some more Tennessee football news.

Oh, there’s also news about the Lady Vols as well. But we’re beginning with football.

Josh Malone, Vols pushing to bring back Wide Receiver U – Wes Rucker of 247Sports

"Malone said he and the rest of the Vols’ wideouts are working feverishly to reach the standards for a program that has spent a few decades calling itself “Wide Receiver U.”“When you come here, when you go to Tennessee as a wide receiver, you know the tradition that they have at wide receiver and what they have set for the future,” Malone said. “We just try to make sure that we bring it back and just let everybody know we’re still here. We’re still here and we can still make big plays.”"
