College coaches everywhere claim to teach their players more than just how to play a sport. Many say that they’re teaching the student-athletes about life and how to be well-rounded people for life after college. All coaches talk the talk. Tennessee men’s basketball coach Rick Barnes appears to walk the walk.

Two of Barnes’ players are going viral for something they did off the court. A female Tennessee fan on the way to the Missouri game got a flat tire on UT campus Saturday. Vols hoops players Grant Williams and John Fulkerson were apparently in the area and stopped what they were doing to change the flat tire for her.

The two can be seen in the brief video below:
