Josh Heupel’s first appearance at SEC Media Days is in the books. The first-year head coach took to the podium this morning in Hoover, speaking on his progress at Tennessee to this point, along with a bit of a preview of what we can expect going forward.
Heupel joined each coach today in speaking on the new NIL rules, while fielding questions on his intriguing quarterback battle, the mass exit via the transfer portal, and what his offense will look like this fall. Heupel came across as a pretty genuine guy in his session, speaking on the importance of building relationships with his players and staff.
Watch the full press conference below.
The next time we’ll see Heupel will be at the opening of fall camp, which has been slated for August 4th. The Volunteers will then have a month’s worth of practices ahead of the season opener against Bowling Green on Thursday, September 2nd.
