Tis the season! For the holidays, yes. But more importantly — the College Football Playoff! With the Vols set to open CFP play this weekend, we caught up with redshirt senior wideout Bru McCoy!

In a conversation rich with Rocky Top reflections, Bru looks back on the 2024 regular season and previews the upcoming playoff tilt in Columbus. He also shares his Senior Day memories before reminiscing on his new Home Sweet Home in Knoxville, Tennessee. And just for good measure — we’ve baked in a little holiday cheer at the top.

Chancellor Donde Plowman joins us on the podcast this week!

In five years at the helm of UTK, she has served as an advocate for student-athletes, supporting their pursuits on and off the field, and raising the standard across campus athletically and academically.

Plowman discusses the recent surge of success for Tennessee Athletics and its impact on the entire Volunteer State, while also noting the personal mark that Tennessee student-athletes and coaches leave with its fans.

Plowman's vision and leadership — alongside that of AD Danny White, whom she hired in 2021 — has set the stage for Tennessee to lead the way in college sports and establish Knoxville as America's College Sports City.

Winter is fast approaching, so we’re getting everyone up to speed on what’s been happening with Tennessee’s fall sports! Football and volleyball are on the cusp of postseason appearances and soccer and cross country just wrapped successful 2024 campaigns.

Speaking of cross country, we’ll also catch up with first-year head coach Justin Duncan, who guided the Lady Vols to a 26th-place finish at the NCAA Cross Country Championships.

All this and more in our late-fall/early-winter update episode!
