Tennessee continuing to experiment with position changes

We’re a little over two weeks away from Tennessee’s opener against West Virginia and Jeremy Pruitt’s staff is still hard at work with experimentation. Position changes ended up being the story of spring ball and that has carried over (to a lesser extent) to the fall.

Halfway through fall camp, Vols continue to cross-train guys at multiple spots. Princeton Fant was back at TE today and Dillon Bates was with the ILBs. Also, former DT Kivon Bennett was at OLB.

The 6-3, 222 pound Fant has bounced back and forth from running back to tight end this year, perhaps learning both positions for a reason.
