Can't wait to see how nasty our D will be this year!
Tennessee's defense never ranked higher than No. 7 in the SEC under John Jancek (2013-15), but Shoop has led top-25 units in total defense in each of the past five years, first at Vanderbilt, then at Penn State. He employs a more aggressive system, which should better leverage the Vols' speed, especially with the returns of likely early-round draft picks cornerbackCameron Sutton and linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin. With a team that surrendered three double-digit leads last year, Shoop's arrival in Knoxville is just what the scoreboard ordered.
