Game of Jones: Tennessee coach hypes team's transition to Nike
College football is entering the dog days of the football calendar, but for Tennessee Volunteer fans this week is being met with a fever pitch, as the team is set to switch to Nike apparel on July 1.
The transition from Adidas to Nike was announced nearly 18 months ago after years of Volunteer fans clamoring for the change. As the calendar turns to July this week, Nike released one more teaser video before the new jersey and apparel is set to be unveiled to the public.
And now Butch Jones is getting involved with the hype, as the school produced this photo, titled "Game of Jones" in collaboration with Nike:

Needless to say, the photo is going over very well with the fan base and even Jones' players are impressed with the swag their coach evokes:

Even a thing as simple as changing shoes becomes a big deal when King Butch of Rocky Top wants it to be.
