T ennessee made its presence at the annual SEC Media Days being held in Atlanta this year. Head coach Josh Heupel spoke at the podium addressing several offseason storylines, what to watch for this year, and the team the Volunteers will have in 2025. Let’s take a look at everything Coach Heupel said at SEC Media Days.

The Southeastern Conference's evolving quarterback situations continued to be a focal point of SEC media days.

The second day of SEC media days featured Tennessee, Auburn, Georgia and Texas on Tuesday in Atlanta, Georgia. Junior linebacker Arion Carter, senior tight end Miles Kitselman and senior defensive lineman Bryson Eason represented Tennessee as student-athletes at SEC media days. Tennessee players were asked about their offseason.

SEC Media Days continued on Tuesday with four College Football Playoff hopefuls headlining the event. Texas and Georgia competed in the SEC Championship Game last season, while Tennessee and Auburn believe they have the rosters to make an appearance in Atlanta this year.

Day 2 of SEC Media Days 2025 spotlighted Texas, Georgia, Auburn, and Tennessee as each program addressed quarterback changes, rising expectations, and the evolving challenges of competing in college football's premier conference.

Conference media days are always ripe with quality quotes, and the witticisms from Atlanta did not disappoint.

Though there are no new schools, or even new coaches, entering the league in 2025, there's still plenty to look forward to. Few names will demand as much attention as Texas quarterback Arch Manning, who will travel with coach Steve Sarkisian to represent the Longhorns in Atlanta.

Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel addressed the sudden exit of Nico Iamaleava and the Vols' quarterback competition — but his comments at SEC Media Days raised more questions than answers.
