The Tennessee Vols took on a different kind of challenge on Tuesday morning, swinging a golf club. The team headed to Top-Golf at 9:30 this morning, as some players were still trying to wake up. But once they got going at the different stations, you could tell it was a nice time to relax.
It was a full blown competition for some though, as Daniel Bituli, Darrell Taylor & Jerome Carvin were involved in a highly contested matchup, to get it off the tee. Bituli wanted to give his teammates a quick lesson, as you can see below.

So, when we asked Marquez about challenging Jeremy Pruitt to some golf, the Senior knew why Pruitt wasn’t around.

It wasn’t just golf that was being played this morning. Jarrett Guarantano was involved in a heated game of spades with a few teammates. One thing was for sure, don’t try & cut on Tim Jordan.

Overall, it was a good time for those involved & just another opportunity for these guys to hang out with each other. Though a few seniors missed out on the event, it looked & sounded like everybody had fun.
The team will hit the practice field on Tuesday afternoon, as they continue to prepare for Indiana. A few Tennessee players & Jeremy Pruitt will meet with the media on Wednesday morning for the final press conference.
It’s almost gameday, on the football field that is.
