KNOXVILLE — The University of Tennessee has a football program rich in history and tradition, and over the years many great players have played on Rocky Top.
Vols Wire looks at what players wore each jersey for the Volunteers.
No. 30
The number goes back to 1937 in UT football history and was first worn by Benn McFarlin, who played guard.
One of the school’s top all-time running backs once donned the number for the Big Orange. Charlie Garner wore No. 30 in 1993.
After transferring to Tennessee from Scottsdale Community College in Arizona and having a solid career for the Vols, Garner was drafted in 1994 by the Philadelphia Eagles.
