Looking for an honest discussion on the impact of Tennessee's disappointing loss at South Carolina, and where the Vols go from here? There's a GoVols247 Podcast for that. GoVols247's Wes Rucker, Patrick Brown and Ryan Callahan went into Fort Rucker Studio to break down Tennessee's tough, 27-24 loss to the Gamecocks last weekend at Williams-Brice Stadium, and the impact that loss could have on the Vols' chances to secure bowl-eligibility under first-year head coach Jeremy Pruitt — something few outside this state expected in Pruitt's first season, but something that felt very possible after the team's upset win at then-21st-ranked Auburn. Tennessee took an early lead at South Carolina, scoring its first first-quarter offensive touchdown of the season in the process, and the Vols extended that lead to 21-9 in the third quarter before the Gamecocks reeled them in, overtook them and held them off in a game that came down to the final minutes — as practically every Vols-Gamecocks game seems to do. How will the Vols rebound in this week's homecoming game against Charlotte? Who actually knows anything about Charlotte? When did Charlotte football become a thing? Why are some Tennessee fans so seemingly convinced that Jarrett Guarantano needs to be replaced in favor of senior backup Keller Chryst? Why do some consider every backup a potential savior when any starter at any position is struggling? What does this Tennessee team need to fix in order to become bowl-eligible, and how many of those things are reasonable to expect? Now that Tennessee has just four games left in the regular season, should we expect to see any young players join the rotation while preserving their redshirt eligibility, thanks to the NCAA's new rule? Those and many other questions are discussed in this episode.

GoVols247's Wes Rucker and Patrick Brown went into Fort Rucker Studio to break down Tennessee's big road game at South Carolina on Saturday at Williams-Brice Stadium. Tennessee picked up serious momentum two weeks ago with its shocking upset win at then-21st-ranked Auburn, and it remains to be seen how much of that momentum the Vols lost in last week's lopsided setback against Third Saturday in October rival Alabama. That loss looks bad in a vacuum, but it doesn't look terrible when you look at what the Crimson Tide have done to anything and everything in their path this season. South Carolina, on the other hand, was expected to compete for an SEC Eastern Division championship this season but has already lost three games to take itself out of the running. It remains to be seen whether the Gamecocks will be any more ready to play the Vols than Auburn was two weeks ago. The Tigers also had a disappointing start to their season, and Tennessee took advantage of that situation. The Vols — already an injury-riddled group up front — now have to face South Carolina without arguably their best player at any position. Sophomore Trey Smith has been ruled out indefinitely following the return of blood clots in his lungs, and how the Vols physically and mentally respond to that challenge will be on full display this weekend. It also remains to seen whether sophomore starter Jarrett Guarantano's injury or senior backup Keller Chryst's strong play off the bench against Alabama will have any impact on that position this weekend. Jeremy Pruitt has been characteristically mum on that topic this week, but early returns have pegged Guarantano as the likely starter against the Gamecocks. Whether that actually happens, though, remains to be seen. Tennessee also hopes to get its running game going after struggling badly in that area against Auburn and Alabama, but Smith's absence could throw a big wrench into those plans. Anything and everything related to this season's Vols-Gamecocks game is discussed in detail in this episode — an episode that ends with questions from listeners, GoVols247 subscribers and social-media followers, with the pick of the litter winning the Grant's Gun Show Question of the Week Award.

Today's show begins with a note on Tennessee's quarterback competition.

GoVols247's full crew — Wes Rucker, Ryan Callahan, Grant Ramey and Patrick Brown — went into Fort Rucker Studio to discuss the state of Tennessee's offense heading into its first preseason camp with new head coach Jeremy Pruitt. Pruitt completely overhauled Tennessee's offensive staff, and that new staff — a group led by offensive coordinator Tyson Helton, who came to the Vols from USC — is installing a new system that's supposedly a more traditional, pro-style offense. That will be a big change for a group that's been spread-based on offense the past five seasons. There will be position battles all over the field, but the most prominent battle will be at the quarterback position, and Pruitt insists that all four of his scholarship quarterbacks — sophomore Jarrett Guarantano, senior graduate transfer Keller Chryst from Stanford, sophomore Will McBride and freshman JT Shrout — will be given a fair chance to earn the starting spot in the team's season opener against West Virginia. Position battles across the board will be a major theme in Tennessee's preseason camp, though. Few players can be truly confident that they'll start the game against the Mountaineers, but several players will head into camp believing — and with good season — that they could win first-team spots. That should make this camp an exciting one. This week's second GoVols247 Podcast — an episode looking at Tennessee's defense heading into camp — will be published Friday morning.

Today's show takes a look at Tennessee's quarterback battle. Josh Ward lays out some of the strengths that both Keller Chryst and Jarrett Guarantano offer. Josh talks to Mike Griffith about the position as well as the offense overall, which will be led by new offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Tyson Helton. Josh also mentions some numbers that reflect how challenging the last decade has been for Tennessee.

Today's show looks at the summer workouts going on right now with Tennessee's football team. The focus today is on the quarterbacks. It's now a four-man race thanks to the arrival of grad transfer Keller Chryst and true freshman JT Shrout. Josh Ward and Mike Griffith talk about the quarterback battle and the importance of those quarterbacks establishing relationships with their teammates. The arrival of offensive lineman Brandon Kennedy could also bring flexibility to the coaches' options up front, which Josh and Mike discuss on today's show.

GoVols247's Wes Rucker and Patrick Brown went into Fort Rucker Studio for the second of our two-part preview of Tennessee's first spring camp under new head football coach Jeremy Pruitt. This episode focuses on the defense, which might need to carry the team in 2018. Pruitt is a defensive backs coach by trade, and he's spent much of his career working for defensive mastermind Nick Saban, and Tennessee almost certainly will have to be good on that side of the ball in order to make Pruitt's first season a good one. Reasons for optimism and causes for pause on all three levels of Tennessee's defense are the main topics of this episode, but several other topics are discussed. Patrick recently sat down with Pruitt and came away with updates on several topics, including the addition of graduate-transfer quarterback Keller Chryst from Stanford, the addition of graduate-transfer running back Madre London from Michigan State, the return of star wide receiver Jauan Jennings to the program's good graces and the health of Tennessee's offensive line.

GoVols247's Wes Rucker, Ryan Callahan and Patrick Brown went into Fort Rucker Studio for the first of our two-part preview of Tennessee's first spring camp under new head football coach Jeremy Pruitt. The Vols and their new coaching staff will get a crash course on each other the next several weeks, and a Tennessee offense that already had plenty of holes on paper will be without a few of its top players for at least a good portion of the spring. A position-by-position look at Tennessee's offense revealed many more questions than answers, but every team gets a blank slate under the next staff, so there might be more answers than questions after the annual Orange & White Game. There's plenty of other news to discuss in this episode, too, including the Vols' addition of graduate transfer quarterback (and former starting quarterback) Keller Chryst from Stanford, the latest on Butch Jones and his Excellent Adventure in Tuscaloosa, the performance of several former Tennessee players at the annual NFL combine and a recap from the Vols' busy Junior Day over the weekend.

The non-preview preview editions of the Shutdown Fullcast continue into...well, into some dark territory. Let's be honest and just say that we talk about Pitt and Rutgers NO WAIT WE COME BACK WE TALK ABOUT OTHER SHIT WE PROMISE--- Things like: --Hey did you remember that Mark Richt is the head coach at Miami, and he gets to work with Brad Kaaya, and that could be really cool since they're both pretty good at their complimentary jobs? And that Miami plays Appalachian State this year? In Boone, North Carolina? --More talk about Pitt football than anyone's had since 2007 when the greatest thing ever happened to Pitt which was just ruining a rival's best shot at a national title which is a negative positive but we are talking about Pitt so they'll take it --Two minutes of Rutgers talk that no one wants to hear so just skip it --We realize that Wisconsin, after years of missing the swinging hammer of a rotating schedule, takes a full-force shot to the face this year by basically playing every real good team in the Big Ten in one season --Stanford! The team with the best and coldest player in the nation, even if you don't know who is handing the ball off to him this year. (Probably someone named Keller Chryst, but you could have guessed that or some other name like that.)
