Vol Network expands pregame coverage

Vol Network expands pregame coverage.

Vol Network has extended its pregame coverage for the 2002 season. Its pregame programming will begin two hours prior to kickoff.

The pregame show, “Big Orange Countdown,” which premiered last season, is statewide coverage and begins at 5 p.m. EDT, prior to Tennessee’s season-opener against Ball State Thursday.

The show is hosted by John Wilkerson, Brent Hubbs and former Vol Jayson Swain. The show will also feature a rotating former Vol each week.

“Big Orange Countdown” will broadcast live outside Gate 21 at Neyland Stadium and fans are welcome to attend and ask questions.

Following “Big Orange Countdown,” Bobby Rader will host “Spotlight on the SEC.”

The UT game crew, featuring Bob Kesling, Pat Ryan and Kasey Funderburg, will begin 25 minutes before kickoff.

The “Big Orange Scoreboard and Josh Heupel Show” will provide postgame coverage. It is hosted by Wilkerson, Erik Ainge and Troy Fleming.

The Vol Network can be listened to over 64 radio stations in Tennessee and throughout the southeast.
