After a bit of a down season with the passing game, Josh Heupel and the Tennessee staff are hoping that redshirt freshman phenom Nico Iamaleava can ignite that attack once again. The former five-star, No. 1 overall prospect takes over under center this season for Tennessee, and he won’t be short on weapons.
Veterans like Bru McCoy and Squirrel White will lead the charge at receiver. 6-5 speedster Dont’e Thornton is back. Chas Nimrod and Kaleb Webb return after another offseason in the system. Touted recruits Mike Matthews and Braylon Stanley will offer instant depth with big time upside down the road.
