KNOXVILLE — Tennessee has concluded its first two weeks of practice during fall training camp.
Third-year Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt discussed the progress of his freshman quarterback Harrison Bailey during the early part of camp. Bailey has missed time due to social quarantine, but has returned to the practice field.
“Harrison didn’t practice for the first couple of days, but at our last practice I thought he had a period there, where he really kind of shined, taking care of the football, getting the ball out of his hands,” Pruitt said of Bailey on Friday. “He’s just like any freshman, he needs tons of reps.
“He needs it, at the speed that the game is in college, and the more reps he gets the better he’ll get, just like any other young player, so he’s just got to continue to get opportunities.”
