Counting Down to Kickoff: A Look at Tennessee Football’s 2024 Season and the History of No. 60

The Tennessee football team will kick off its 2024 season in just 60 days. The Vols will have their first game on August 31 against Chattanooga at Neyland Stadium. Kickoff is set for 12:45 p.m. EDT and the game will be televised on SEC Network. This will be the fourth season for head coach Josh Heupel, who has led the team to a 27-12 record and three bowl games in his first three seasons.

As the countdown to the new season continues, Vols Wire takes a look back at past Tennessee student-athletes who wore the No. 60 jersey. Over the years, players like Melvin Herring, Wallace Cantrell, and Darris McCord have all worn the No. 60 jersey while playing for the Vols.

The list goes on to include players from as far back as the 1930s to current players like Alton Stephens, who wore the No. 60 jersey from 2021-2023.

This information was sourced from the 2023 Tennessee Football Media Guide.

The Vols are looking to build on their success from last season as they head into the 2024 campaign. With key players returning and new recruits joining the team, expectations are high for Tennessee this upcoming season.

Fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the season and are hopeful for a successful year on the football field.
