Josh Heupel recaps Tennessee’s first fall camp practice

Josh Heupel recaps Tennessee’s first fall camp practice.

Tennessee kicked off fall training camp at Haslam Field Monday.

Second-year head coach Josh Heupel recapped Tennessee’s first fall training camp practice ahead of the 2022 season.

“It was great to get out on the field today,” Heupel said. “It ended up being a beautiful day. The weather held out, so it was great for us to get outside. We’re really excited about being able to get out there. The challenge for us, as players and coaches, is don’t make the same mistake twice and continue to grow.

“I love the energy and enthusiasm. On day one, that’s really easy. We have to continue to have that type of focus and energy every single day. I believe this group has the ability to do that. Our practice habits are so much cleaner. Communication, efficiency and just moving around the practice field were all really good. I’m looking forward to watching it this afternoon with the guys and our staff.”

The Vols will kick off its 2022 season Sept. 1 against Ball State at Neyland Stadium (7 p.m. EDT, SEC Network).
