Tennessee’s Zander Sechrist and Dylan Loy may not have seen any action on the field on Friday night, but the two were “locked, absolutely locked in the bullpen” to make sure the “spots are hot.”
Sechrist and Loy spent a moment talking with Pencil Talk Podcast after the Vols’ win, adrenaline still pumping as the veteran and the newcomer began to head off field with backpacks on.
The duo made the most of their appearance on the field before heading to the locker room, though.
“I want to do the Ric Flair, like, you know he has the highhh-flyinggg, you know, Woo!” Sechrist exclaimed in the video.
In an instant, Sechrist turned it from him and Loy being interviewed to him interviewing his Tennessee teammate.
