Butch Jones (former University of Tennessee football coach) had said a few years ago that 62 of 108 players had grown up without a father.
He didn’t explain that any further...he might have meant “over the previous two seasons,” crossing out duplicates.
Scholarships are limited to 85 players in any one season.
You have room for 23 "walkons", ie, players not on scholarship who pay their own way.
I know that we are not supposed to get extra credit for doing the right thing, but once it a while it would be nice to get a tip of the hat for contributing to society.
