I just read this on Tyler Maples...
"He came in, and I already had on all Tennessee stuff," Ryan said. "My dad asked him if he'd like to play [at] UT. Tyler's first words were, `They'll never offer me.' Dad said, `Well, they've offered you a scholarship.' It knocked the wind out of [Tyler]. He just sat there. Mom pressed the tape player, and it started playing Rocky Top."
Pretty awesome.
