Kahlil McKenzie Takes Shot At Skip Bayless

Soon-to-be Tennessee Volunteers defensive lineman Kahlil McKenzie has already endeared himself to UT fans by being one of the top 2015 recruits in the nation.

The five-star recruit, however, even further captivated Vol fans on Sunday evening by taking a shot at polarizing sports television personality Skip Bayless.

Taking a shot at Bayless is certainly nothing new — he says preposterous things just to get a reaction. But McKenzie took his calculated shot by making fun of Bayless for attending Vanderbilt, Tennessee’s in-state rival.
