..according to Coach Pruitt.

NASHVILLE — Another Tennessee offensive lineman is having to give up football due to injuries.

I seem to remember that he was a solid prospect towards the start of his career. You hate to see injuries do this. The best of luck to him

A lot of Jones better recruits had careers cut short.

Personally... I think it had to do with his "revolutionary techniques" and generally poor development and S&C.

I hate to hear that. I'm glad he will get to finish his education though. Here is hoping he has all the success in the world in whatever career he pursues.

Good luck young man ... wish you a good long life of happiness

Hate to hear that. I was always high on him. Butchs terrible strength and conditioning policies likely cost him a good career. Good luck to Chance Hall.

I hate it for the kid and his family. Loved watching his freshman year.

Butch even destroyed kids careers with his lack of S&C. Never seen so many players get hurt like they did under Butch.

Feel bad he was set up for failure.

Does this open up a spot for a grad or Mizzou transfer?

Good luck to him!!!! He was a stud when healthy

I remember him being highlighted by CBS during the 2015 Bama game for dominating as a true freshman

 

[vols72]

Really hate this young man has to give up playing the game he loves. I wish him all the best and maybe he can move into the coaching side now so he can still be a part of it. Best wishes young man on whatever path you choose. God bless you and you will always be a TENNESSEE Volunteer

Thinking back to Lee Otis Burton, Trey Smith, Chance & others. Football is a physical game: controlled chaos & violence. Things happen, & we wish you well, Chance.

 

[CJBlaze]

Sorry to hear this.I hope he has much success in whatever he does. Butch Jones has some culpability in this imo. Our S&C program was a joke!

Anyone know what kind of knee injuries did he have? How many surgeries etc? Any details?

 

[Mightyvol]

Best wishes for a successful future. Tough guy and I liked the way he played the game.

 

[VOLATNES]

Anyone know how Zach Stewart is doing now. Didn’t UT let him stay on scholarship? Wasn’t he working with the football team some?

 

[munsterlander]

If I recall, he had a pretty serious injury in high school. We took a chance on Chance and it looked like a good gamble his freshman year. Hate it for him.

Likely cost a lot of players. Toxic environment with zero discipline or accountability.

We took a chance on Chance but chances are Chance will have a chance to take more chances if by chance Chance decided to take a chance at coaching. There's always a chance for Chance.

Hate to hear this. Really thought played hard and was a talented lineman. Best of luck to him. VFL.

I hate to hear this. Glad he'll have the chance to finish his education
