Welcome into Locked on Balls, your team every day.

My name is Josh Ward.

Thank you for being here today.

Today is the start of Tennessee's spring football practice.

We're going to talk a lot of football here on today's show.

In segment number one, I'm just going to run through some of the main talking points, I think,

for Tennessee's football team. I could keep going. I could do three full segments on that.

But in segment number one, some of the things that I think stand out first when I think about

Tennessee's football team and what we'll be talking about at the start of

practice and probably throughout spring. I'll do that in segment number one. In segment number

two, I'm going to talk to Eric Kane, who covers Tennessee football for the sports animal. I work

with Eric on WNML. He has the producing the facts podcast. So we're going to run through the

quarterback position, what he thinks about that spot.

And then a player or two to watch on the defensive side of the ball.

That's in segment number two.

And then in the final segment, there was actually kind of a weird story involving a Tennessee

football player on Monday.

I will catch you up on that.

And then Rick Barnes makes the case for Eve Ponds as the SEC defensive player of the year.

I'll get to that here on Locked On Valls. It's part of the Locked On Podcast Network. It's available

anywhere you listen to podcasts. Apple and Google Podcasts, Spotify, the third-party apps carry it as well.
