Ty Chandler Named SEC Freshman of the Week

In just the second game of his collegiate career, Tennessee football player and MBA alum Ty Chandler was named the SEC Freshman of the Week. Chandler made an immediate impact in Tennessee's 42-7 win over Indiana St. when he returned the opening kickoff 91 yards for a touchdown. In addition, Chandler had 4 rushes for 14 yards. Chandler becomes the first true freshman for Tennessee to return a kickoff for a touchdown since 1999.

Chandler became one of the most decorated football players in MBA history by rushing for over 7,000 career yards and well over 100 touchdowns. He was named a U.S. Army All-American and a two-time Mr. Football winner for the state.

The Vols are back in action Saturday versus the Florida Gators.
