Former Tennessee Volunteers standout defender has given fans plenty to get excited about heading into the 2025 season. In a recent interview, the ex-Vol shared strong praise for head coach Josh Heupel’s system, calling it a “perfect fit” for today’s game and exactly what the team needs to compete at the highest level in the SEC.
“Coach Heupel’s system is fast, aggressive, and it keeps opponents guessing,” the former Vol said. “It’s not just about scoring points — it sets the tone for the entire team, including the defense. When your offense is rolling like that, it gives the defense more confidence and keeps everyone fired up.”
Since taking over in Knoxville, Josh Heupel has revitalized the Tennessee program with an explosive offense and an up-tempo style of play that has put the Vols back in the national conversation. After a solid showing last season, expectations are sky-high for 2025, with many fans and analysts predicting that Tennessee could be a serious contender in the SEC.
The former Vol also emphasized how Heupel’s system helps player development. “Heupel puts his players in positions to succeed,” he added. “Young guys get chances to shine early, and that builds depth and confidence throughout the roster.”
With returning talent and a promising recruiting class, Tennessee fans have reason to believe the program is ready to take another big step forward this year. If Heupel’s system continues to deliver, the Vols could be in for one of their best seasons in recent memory.
