Summary
GoVols247’s full crew Wes Rucker and Patrick Brown went into Fort Rucker Studio to reassess Tennessee football at the midway point of coach Jeremy Pruitt's first preseason camp in Knoxville.
The Vols had a laundry list of questions to answer heading into camp, and some of those answers have started to emerge. But many have not.
What's the deal at quarterback? How many running backs will be in the rotation? Have the wide receivers had a slow start? Have things become any clearer on the offensive line? How many tight ends are in the picture, and what are they bringing to the table?
How has the adjustment to Pruitt's defense gone? Is there enough depth up front? Who's in and who's on the outside looking in at linebacker? Has anyone not named Nigel Warrior stepped up in the secondary?
Will Tennessee have adequate replacements on special teams, with a great punter, a solid kicker and an All-America return specialist out of eligibility?
See what we meant when we suggested the Vols had a lot of questions to answer heading into camp?
There are so many questions to answer. Come get at least some of those answers.
