Danny White Announces Return of Checker Neyland For Tennessee-Florida

Tennessee athletic director Danny White has announced that the Checker Neyland tradition will return for the Vols upcoming Top-25 matchup against the Florida Gators. 

The movement was most recently used in the Vols' 2021 matchup against Ole Miss that Tennessee lost close. 

The '#CheckerNeyland' tradition displays the Vols checkerboard pattern throughout the stadium. In the case for next weekend, it will be showcased in a sold-out Neyland Stadium. This game will serve as the sixth Checker Neyland in program history. 

Below is a message from Tennessee Athletics:
