She does a remarkable job, IMO, and is critical to the success of this team. Plus she makes some darn good peanut butter.
In her office at the Anderson Training Center, Allison Maurer struggles to remember where she was in the moments after Tennessees 45-42 victory over South Carolina on Nov. 1, 2014. In between making arrangements for the teams postgame meal, she was just having trouble believing the Vols really completed the seemingly impossible comeback against the Gamecocks.
She recalls one memory, however, a recollection as clear as that November night sky in Columbia.
She remembers seeing then-senior Jordan Williams on his knees, crying. A bowl game that had eluded him in his four years at Tennessee was finally within inches of his grasp.
The moment illustrated the resounding pathos of college football, but to Maurer, the image was especially moving. Maurer had developed a close relationship with Williams, instructing him on his diet regimen and dispensing advice to him on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle in his four-year tenure at UT. So when she saw his uncontainable euphoria in the aftermath of the Vols victory, she too couldnt help but feel thrilled.
