Tennessee Volunteers football will hold a media session on July 20 in Tampa, Florida, as part of the annual SEC Media Days. The event will feature Coach Josh Heupel alongside senior linebacker DeSean Bishop, wide receiver Arion Carter and defensive back Jeremiah Telander, who will field questions about the upcoming campaign.
The Vols are slated to open the 2026 season on September 5 at Neyland Stadium against Furman, a non‑conference matchup that promises to test the team’s early‑season readiness.
All of the SEC Media Days events will be carried live on the SEC Network, with a simultaneous stream available through the ESPN app and the SEC Network+ platform, though the latter requires a subscription.
The day’s agenda begins at 9:05 a.m. with SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey delivering opening remarks, followed by a succession of team presentations that run through the afternoon.

Tennessee’s own presentation is set for 2:55 p.m., rounding out a busy schedule that will give fans a first look at the new‑look rosters and coaching staffs across the conference.
