A New Era In Tennessee This fall will mark the start of a new era of Tennessee football under first year head coach Josh Heupel. It also marks a new era on the Vol Radio Network. Former Vol and NFL quarterback Pat Ryan takes over the prestigious analyst role this season after legendary VFL Tim Priest retired earlier this summer. Ryan, only the fourth color analyst in the Vol Network's 72-year history, teams with play-by-play announcer Bob Kesling who is starting his 23rd year calling Tennessee games. Network host John Wilkerson, spotter and contributor Brent Hubbs and sideline reporter Kasey Funderburg round out the game broadcast crew (shown above). Jeff Muir serves as the network's ace statistician. The Volunteers first game on Thursday, Sept. 2 will also mark the debut of a new Vol Network pregame show tradition. "Big Orange Countdown" will introduce fans to a new season of Volunteer football with expert insight from a host of former Volunteers. Photo Courtesy of Tennessee Athletics
