Josh Heupel recaps Vols’ first scrimmage during fall training camp

Josh Heupel recaps Vols’ first scrimmage during fall training camp.

On the status of K’Rojhn Calbert

“K’Rojhn did have surgery and will not be with us for an extended period of time right now. I’ve said it before, the strength of one position can’t just be one guy, certainly offensive line. Next guy has to step up and take advantage of his opportunity and, at the end of the day, compete and prove that he can play at a championship level.”

On the playing time of quarterbacks in the scrimmage

“They kind of cycled through. If a guy had a three-and-out he might have had an extra drive just to keep the play count relatively close.”

What he has learned about the team thus far through camp

“I just look to where we started. Our sense of team, our sense of competing for the guy who sits next to me in the team room. I think there is a sense of becoming a team and it being bigger than just me and ultimately if you’re going to have a football team that plays the right way, it’s got to be about the guys around you, not about yourself.”
