Scrimmage closed to media?

After further review, the football did not touch the pylon before going out of bounds, resulting in a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty for false celebration. --refs probably

Sounds like the offensive tempo gave some of the newcomers on defense some challenges today and it sounds like Tennessee's between snap speed has gotten faster in year two as you would expect.

Everyone notes that Hendon Hooker is playing well. Jeremy Banks did get him today on the pick. But feeling I get is that is was a better play by Banks than it was poor play by Hooker.

Bru McCoy didn't scrimmage as Austin noted. It should be noted that has nothing to do with his eligibility. There's no situation where McCoy would have to be pulled off the practice field like in the old clearinghouse days. I don't get the sense there's much worry about it. When it will be resolved is unknown. My guess is it will be in the next 10 days or so.

I don't think it's been a great 2-3 days for the receivers overall.

As for left tackle, Austin has been saying it for several weeks both Crawford and Mincey will play early in the season and I agree 100%. No one is running away with the job.

At running back, Jabari Small just keeps plugging along making plays. Small is bigger and is having a really nice camp. Dylan Sampson is the other guy who keeps making some plays and generating buzz. Justin Williams-Thomas has been solid as well. He's continuing to get better. Dixon is trying to catch on to the offense. They will need several of them this fall.

Tyler Baron is playing better and playing more. Young continues to make some plays. The two young ends Josephs and Pearce has shown their skillset. Josephs is probably ahead of Pearce because he's more polished coming from the HS program he played in.

Christian Charles may end up being the corner opposite of Burrell as Hadden continues to miss practice. I think they are pretty unsettled at corner and star as they try to sort things out.

As Heupel and as Swain tweeted, sounds like Jabari Small had a good day.

Seems the freshman RBs and Sampson especially made an impression as well.

Obviously Banks had the interception. Sampson had the TD run and Jacob Warren caught a TD. (As seen on Twitter, IG, etc.)

Crawford appears to have edge at left tackle (aka started out with 1s) but that's not over. Still think they are going to rotate those two to start off -- mentioned that in Takeaways yesterday. Like Heupel said, gonna need all of them, because O-line is a rugged position where guys get banged up.

Don't think Bru scrimmaged and was told Walker Merrill was with the 1s opposite Tillman.

Was told Christian Charles and Brandon Turnage split 1 reps at cornerback opposite Burrell with Hadden out.
