Backfield
QB: 1. Jarrett Guarantano/Will McBride
RB: 1. Ty Chandler 2. Tim Jordan/Trey Coleman
Thoughts: The quarterback competition won’t be decided till the fall when Stanford grad transfer QB Keller Chryst throws his name into the mix. But both Jarrett Guarantano or Will McBride have a perfect opportunity to get a leg up on the competition this spring if they can put together a strong showing.
Just like with Tennessee’s quarterback position, the Vols’ running back position will change in the fall with the addition of a grad transfer. Michigan State grad transfer Madre London will join the fray in the fall, but for now Ty Chandler is likely the top back with Tim Jordan and Trey Coleman fighting for the No. 2 spot in the spring.
