Storytelling from the University of Tennessee's School of Journalism & Media
After a tough Valentine’s Day loss to LSU, the basketball Vols are looking for redemption through an upset of the top-ranked Kentucky Wildcats at Thompson-Boling Arena in a Big Tuesday match-up.
The University of Tennessee’s Tradition Committee, associated with the Student Government Association, held VOLentine’s Day as a part of "Big Orange Friday" that took place on Pedestrian Walkway from 10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m. on Friday.
In this week's Triple Play, Danielle Whaley, Sam Forman and Dalton Light recap National Signing Day and discuss UT men's and women's basketball, baseball and softball.
With men's and women's basketball going on, as well as baseball and softball, it is a busy time for sports. Here is a guide to this week in Tennessee athletics.
Tennessee's men's basketball team (13-9, 5-5) traveled to Athens, Georgia, Saturday to take on the Georgia Bulldogs (15-7, 6-4). The Vols left with their fourth SEC loss in the past five games.
A career-high scoring effort from Josh Richardson could not save Tennessee from the hands of defeat.
Tennessee returned home Saturday to take on the Auburn Tigers and ex-Vols coach Bruce Pearl. The Vols were looking to avoid a 3-game skid and they were able to slide past the Tigers 71-63.
Bruce Pearl will return to Thompson-Boling Arena Saturday for the first time since he was fired by Tennessee in March 2011 due to NCAA recruiting violations. Pearl's new team, the Auburn Tigers will take on Donnie Tyndall and the Vols.
This week on Rocky Topics, Cody McClure and Nathan Odom debate whether Tennessee's men's basketball team will make the NCAA tournament. The Vols are currently 2nd in the SEC standings with an 11-5, 3-1 record.
Armani Moore's double-double helped the Vols slip past Missouri, 59-51.
