KNOXVILLE — Tennessee kicked off fall training camp Monday ahead of the 2020 season.
Following practice, third-year Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt met with media and announced that offensive lineman Cade Mays had his request to play immediately denied.
Mays transferred from Georgia to Tennessee in January and will need an NCAA waiver to play immediately during the 2020 season.
The 6-foot-6, 328-pound Mays competed in 25 games for the Bulldogs (2018-19), starting 18 contests.
In 2019, Mays started six games at right guard, two at right tackle, two at left guard and at left tackle in the Sugar Bowl.
Tennessee will play at South Carolina in Week 1 of the 2020 season.
