About this episode
Tennessee Volunteers face a pivotal spring as the quarterback battle between George MacIntyre and Faizon Brandon takes center stage—does coach Josh Heupel have the next offensive leader on his roster, or will uncertainty linger into fall camp? Eric Cain spotlights top returning players to watch, including dynamic tight end DaSaahn Brame and promising wideout Radarious Jackson, dissecting major position battles and what they mean for the Vols' offensive identity. Analyst Josh Ward joins to break down defensive questions under new coordinator Jim Knowles, key linebacker depth with Arion Carter and Amare Campbell, and fierce competition at wide receiver and in the secondary. Basketball fans get a preview of the SEC Tournament as the Vols aim for a statement run, but will Nate Ament’s health be a deciding factor? Get the latest on spring practice buzz, player developments, and inside takes on Tennessee's football and basketball outlook.   Catch Locked on Vols, wherever you find your podcasts. ??https://linktr.ee/cainer Subscribe to the Locked on Vols EveryDayer Club ?? https://lockedonvols.supercast.com/ Neyland Press Corps Substack ?? https://neylandpress.substack.com/ For your next listen, check out the Locked On College Football podcast!
