Nate Ament: "It's one of the reasons I chose Tennessee because of Coach Barnes and his faith. ... as a team, you're trying to glorify something bigger than yourself. And, ultimately, something that is Jesus Christ and is God can only lead to good things. When you're playing for something other than your own glory and the glory of others, the glory of your teammates, the glory of Christ, only good things can happen from there if you're being selfless and trying to take care of each other."
“We should want to share our faith. We should want our players to understand who Jesus Christ is. They should see us living that every single day.”
— Tennessee men's basketball head coach Rick Barnes

Out of everything said in the locker room, this quote hit different. Santiago Vescovi on Josiah-Jordan James (@jjjames30):
"I wouldn't call him a best friend. He's my brother, and I think it's gonna be that way forever." #Vols
The teachers and employees of @FarragutS and Farragut Middle School are doing great work! Ms. Paquette was making sure students sanitized their hands, and Ms. Ramos was leading an activity that helped students get to know each other! #KCSTogether
I’m extremely grateful for the Haslam family’s $900,000 gift to offset the cost of Chromebook insurance for Knox County’s neediest families! This gift is a tremendous benefit for our 1:1 initiative, and will make an enormous difference for our students! https://t.co/HqiBzwiymA
