Former Vol Caleb Herring Reflects on Knoxville Time Ahead of Tennessee-South Carolina Meeting

Tennessee's game against South Carolina will bring the Volunteers face to face with a familiar name, as former Vol Caleb Herring will be on the other side when the two teams meet. Herring, who spent time in Knoxville with Tennessee before moving on, is now set to play against his old program.

Ahead of that reunion, Herring had some things to say about his time in Knoxville. His comments add a personal storyline to a conference matchup that already carries plenty of weight on its own, with a former Tennessee player now preparing to compete against the Volunteers rather than for them.

For Tennessee, the meeting is a reminder of how common these reunions have become in modern college football, where players regularly resurface on opposing rosters. Whatever Herring shared about his experience in Knoxville, the focus will shift once the game begins to how the Volunteers handle South Carolina and a player who knows their program from the inside.
