"It hit Daniel Hood from nowhere. Like a chop block or a clip.With the burly defensive lineman’s Tennessee playing career officially over following the Volunteers’ 27-14 victory over Kentucky on Saturday night, he felt his eyes fill with tears as he walked off UK’s Commonwealth Stadium turf.“I’ve never been an emotional guy,” he said later after wiping away a second round of the salty stuff while meeting with the media."

From Bleacher Report

"For all his success on the recruiting trail, Tennessee coach Butch Jones desperately needs to win one more major battle—the one for elite in-state receiver Josh Malone.The 6’2″, 190-pound prospect from Gallatin is expected to choose between the Volunteers and Clemson on Wednesday. Malone is just the type of immediate-impact player that UT must keep home to return to prominence."
