Summary

Josh Ward begins today's show with some updates to national recruiting rankings. Tennessee's top-rated commit, offensive lineman Wanya Morris, received a big bump by 247Sports on Thursday. Barton Simmons of 247Sports explains why he thinks so highly of Morris. Phil Steele of ESPN has ranked his top 15 defensive line units in the nation. Find out how many Tennessee will face, and Josh spends a few minutes talking about Tennessee's offensive line - the group responsible for blocking those defensive lines. West Virginia quarterback Will Grier, who will face Tennessee on Sept. 1, continues to receive preseason hype. Hear more about that, and Josh's "newcomer to know" today is offensive lineman Ollie Lane. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:00.0	Welcome into Rocky Talk, the Daily Tennessee podcast.
0:09.8	My name is Josh Ward.
0:11.1	Thank you for being along today as we are getting ready to head into the weekend.
0:15.2	Next week is going to be a busy week.
