Recently official information regarding collegiate programs presence on social media was released.

The Vols ranked in the top 25 in all three categories.

Tennessee ranked 19th in Facebook fans, 24th in Twitter followers and 11th in You Tube subscribers.

It’s worth nothing that Butch Jones ranks third among all college football coaches in Twitter followers.

Vol fans are known for having a huge presence on social media, so the numbers can be a little misleading.

Below is the full rankings for the top 25 in each category.
