Jalen Reeves-Maybin kicked off the great news for the Tennessee Vols in the offseason with his decision to return for his senior season in Knoxville.
To many, it may not have been a surprise since Reeves-Maybin did not seem like a probable high draft pick.
Also, he would be leaving a team that has a chance to be the best in the school’s recent history.
Most of all, he is a born and raised Tennessee kid who clearly always loved Tennessee football and wanted to carve out his own legacy in Knoxville, and he said as much in a letter.
