## Resource

Tennessee football readies for a big recruiting official visit weekend while also playing host to the 865Live for underclassmen prospects. How good could this class be in the end and has Heupel and staff changed the way they go about recruiting over the years? The football team is just about to enter the final phase of the offseason with plenty of outside conversation on-going. Is Tennessee’s team good enough to overcompensate for an inexperienced signal-caller? Join Grant Ramey, Matt Ray and Eric Cain on the Volquest Mailbag Podcast as they answer several subscriber questions like these and more.
