"Without a doubt, the tempo of practice (at Tennessee) is the fastest I’ve ever been around,” DeBord told reporters during his first media session of the spring. “In the NFL, the coaches I worked for there, they were big into tempo and going fast and all that, but nothing like what Butch has. And at Michigan, we practiced fast, but again, it wasn’t ever like this. I love it. It really makes the players concentrate.”
Tennessee’s rushing attack in 2015 will be one of the best in the SEC and that’s in large part due to the addition of JuCo running back Alvin Kamara.
The Vols signed Kamara out of Hutchinson Community College. The Georgia native originally signed to play at Alabama in 2013.
Kamara, who has three years of eligibility remaining, will team with sophomore running back Jalen Hurd to give Tennessee the potent rushing game the program has lacked over the past several seasons.
Sporting News considers Kamara one of their top breakout candidates in 2015.
