Jonathan Kongbo knows the way into the hearts of Vols fans.
The nation’s top JUCO signee of the 2016 recruiting class hasn’t stepped on the field for Tennessee yet, but he’s winning over Vols fans left and right with a Twitter post he made on Saturday afternoon.
Kongbo’s Tweet included a video of him working out to the sounds of “Rocky Top”, and I’m not talking about the version played by the Pride of the Southland marching band on Saturdays in the fall.
I’m talking about the old-school, twangy bluegrass version of the song that was written back in 1967.

It was on his birthday, no less!
No matter how this guy gets himself hype, fans and foes alike are anxious to see what Kongbo can do on the field this fall.
