Danny White is the AD we needed to breathe new life into UT athletics. Excited beyond belief to see what the Vols bring to the field tonight!

[@thomasking3359]

Danny White is so good for Tennessee. What a blessing.

[@kevincollins5257]

I don’t know why but something feels special about this year! Can’t wait too see what it is! Hope the boys have some fun and love the game to fullest. GBO 🍊🏈

[@randylamance7888]

Fantastic job by Danny White and his team! Great to see the growth!

[@glenlong6267]

We are so fortunate to have gotten Mr. White as r AD, and him hiring coach Heuple, u can tell both these men r big character guys and they r young so they have a lot of room to grow and they r already at the top of there game. I hope they stay forever. GBO🍊🏈👍

IT'S FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice to see On3 and Volquest partnering up and I am looking forward to a great season.

These additions are about bringing, community to the game. In the old days, community and fellowship watching your team was a driving force for team spirt and pride among fans, coaches and players. These new added social areas bring that back and in a big new modern way. Instead of just standing around or sitting, you can hang out and miss nothing, from the best vantage points, and in a group environment with people. It's making socializing part of that game experience and re-defines what going to a game means. Nothing builds a team and fanbase more than community viewership in comfort and leisure.

Danny White's ability and wisdom brings to UT more of both traits than years of his predecessors combined. MUCH appreciated...!! GBO

[@donaldvandergriff2196]

I really like Danny White, along with Coach Heupel. I think they were great hires, finally!!

[@robstn4640]

Thank you Danny!

[@chrisjohnson1967]

Proud he's our guy !! GO VOLS !!!

[@stevejessee4603]

Man is going to look so good..so excited

[@hillvolfan]

Terrific updates ... Go ... Big ... Orange !!

[@gwhite7136]

Incredible work! Love how they dug down to get all that space for concessions and game environment at the end of the segment of the video. Will have it re-dressed next offseason. Updated the old Jumbotron and added the other, plus so many areas to continuously watch the game. It would be harder to try and miss game coverage or game vantage view. Wouldn't be shocked to see a TV in the bathrooms. lol. Congrats to Danny and the admin of communicating with fans and contract builders on making this great update realty and in a timely manner.

[@givemyall4tn2day79]

Hopefully the letters removes the curse! Go Vols!

[@Waniac]

Fulmer is a legendary coach but he was no athletic director. Danny White gets it and understands what it's going to take. He's definitely modernizing Neyland Stadium which it desperately needed IMO. Giving fans something new to add each year is going to be great and he connects with people and fans! Still seats 101,915 and only lost 540 seats. Donde Plowman seems to have hit a homerun when she hired Danny White as Tennessee's Athletic Director! GO VOLS!!!! 💯❤️💯

[@jeffreylawson3645]

Awesome job AD White..we need you to start working on getting annual COLLEGE BOWL GAME to be played in Neyland Stadium..a new bowl game named THE SMOKEY MOUNTAIN CLASSIC COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME. This stadium is calling for a mid to late DECEMBER BOWL GAME to be played every year. It could be affiliated with both the SEC and ACC football teams. This Stadium is so much better than Nashville's Titans Stadium because of its East Tennessee location and its classic football history. Having a mid to late December College Football Bowl Game would bring in extra millions of $$ dollars that would help provide future upgrades to the Stadium along with other campus projects. Having the 1st ever East Tennessee classic college football bowl game would be so beneficial to both the university and the city of Knoxville but also this Great State of Tennessee. PLEASE MR. WHITE start this now in 2022 in order to get everything up and running by the 2025 bowl games. Starting a new CFB game is not as challenging as one would believe it to be. All the credit goes to you as the AD of out great state university. I have been telling everyone my whole life that someday The University of Tennessee and Knoxville will get their act together in order to give East Tennessee a great historical football bowl experience. Nashville is starting talk about doing upgrades to the Titans Stadium in order to keep up with Neyland Stadium but no matter what they do it just isn't the great experience that we can provide here in East Tennessee. PLEASE THINK ABOUT THIS IDEA AS SOMEONE LIKE YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN and YOU MAKE HISTORY AS BEING THE PERSON TO START SOMETHING SPECIAL. P.S. Also by doing this would also cement your JOB in place for the next 20 or 30 years as long as you and your family wants to stay in Knoxville Tennessee...GOD BLESS and GBO

😂😂

[@mitchellelliott6168]

Someone always comparing Titans to Vols, 😂. It’s not a competition. The Titans are building a new dome stadium the states are already put in $500 million the NFL‘s already put in 200 million and the cities about to put additional money for the stadium. So it’s going to be a new enclosed stadium for the Titans.

[@mountainliving1227]

You are forgetting something…because of Knoxville’s lack of leadership, there is no downtown for potential bowl fans to hang out in, in the days leading up to the game. The riverfront hasn’t been developed. What are they going to do to be entertained? Knoxville has tried to be “big time” for tears, but it’s leadership over the past several decades hasn’t promoted modernization.

[@Squatch34]

DW starting to look like greatest AD at UT in my lifetime

[@chase1976veg]

I am impressed with White. Maybe just maybe we finally have someone at the helm that knows what they are doing. Someone that embraces the great UT Traditions expands on them and has forward thinking and a plan going into the future.

[@Drewski423]

Agreed. He’s one hell of an AD

[@Magaswamy716]

Very racist statement

[@wutamamama]

The few changes he has done has been VERY positive. His plans are detailed, specific, and make sense for the university to have a great path forward. I love him so far!!

[@mintz9782]

Keeping with traditions is what's needed, not just in football but in general.

[@HurricaneHayne]

HDR baby! Keep it coming.

[@beerhead1351]

Thanks Danny you kick butt

[@corystuard6251]

This guy gets it. I hope he’s around for a long time!

[@samreeves4917]

Best show yall have done. Well done.

[@jonsolomon4814]

Great job team! GBO 🍊🏈

[@4wd35]

We better Danny White around for a while. He’s doing a great job! GBO

[@base1b2626]

Good stuff thanks for showing us all of the new upgrades

[@scottbennett6200]

Great hires at ROCKY TOP!!!! We now need to EXPAND SEATING to 110K!!!!!! IT WILL SELL OUT!!!!! GO BIG FREEKIN ORANGE!!!!! 🍊🍊🍊🍊

[@timhart3947]

Danny is #1!

[@Chatsworth1979]

Very inspirational. +1

[@eddieturner6747]

Neyland looked great. The upgrades are class! We set in Section V; row 54 under the canopy. The Small TVs under the canopies are archaic compared to other SEC venues.

[@codyharrison6294]

LETS GO!

[@Cpt.Miller7394]

The price hike is a bit much that’s my only major complaint but it totally makes sense

[@jeffdillon3930]

The work he did his first weekend on the job increased the value of Tennessee 10 fold!!

[@jrtimberland7402]

Now its time to add another 15,000 seats!! ...Then we can be # 1 or 2 again..we really do need to add more seats

[@DaGamer-cd8hw]

That would be nice but I doubt that will happen

[@JG-ds6qs]

No we don’t need to add more seats. It would be better to have more room for those in the stadium and lose some seats than add more to make the experience worse.

[@jessc.13]

lets go win some ball games 👍🏽

[@Msrverpilot]

Wow

[@harunterzic2270]

VOLS on top

[@logancradic8751]

GBO!!! 🍊

[@bigblock67camaro]

5:48 😇

[@stevejessee4603]

Buck FAMA. The night I get kicked out of neyland for smoking, is after Tenn. Beats the gumps

[@logancradic8751]

beat the gumps baby

[@jeff3136]

VOLS. VOLS

[@stevejessee4603]

WHoooOO

[@jimjaspers2804]

Why isn't Brent Hubbs the voice of the Vols? Yeah I said it...

[@bfdoc327]

Too bad that we all don’t have millions of dollars to get a premium seat!

[@Danny-yz7tq]

Well, getting in was a nightmare. Gates waiting on security and sending people to other gates. Handicap seating is a total joke. It’s like they don’t want handicap people there.

[@anthonyrichards2923]

That shouldn't orange n blue needs to be orange and white

[@rlpayne58]

Its orange and smokey grey

[@aship865]

Can confirm in person it's orange and grey

[@ZenZone_Soundscapes]

AR-15 that you? lol
