Robert Mitchell
rmitche8@tennessee.edu

Chris Mitchell is a senior in Journalism and Electronic Media. He is in the sports track. Mitchell was born and raised in Memphis, TN.

He has loved sports since he can remember. He plays football and basketball when his schedule allows and definitely loves to watch UT sports. Besides Volunteer football, he cheers on the Oklahoma Sooners and Ohio State Buckeyes. His favorite pro teams are the Memphis Grizzlies and the Tennessee Titans. 

Mitchell came to UT to major in computer engineering but realized he loved sports too much. Everyday he browses the internet looking for the latest information to discuss with friends.

Mitchell has done play-by-play and color commentary on high school football for www.tnvarsity.com. During the summer of 2008, he interned at WREG in Memphis, Tenn., covering the local sports scene. Mitchell enjoyed getting to know some of the Grizzlies' players among other things. He also got to cover the Memphis Redbirds (Triple-A affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals), Memphis Tigers and the PGA Tour's Stanford St. Jude Championship.

He wants to one day work for ESPN or NFL Network as an anchor and a commentator.
