Tennessee assistant coach William Inge has been out since suffering a medical scare in September. He was released from the hospital in October, but he’s back in the building for Saturday night’s matchup against Kentucky.
Tennessee shared a clip of Inge greeting players as they entered the stadium on Saturday:
Josh Heupel hired him in 2024, after he had a two-year stint at Washington as the associate head coach, co-defensive coordinator, and linebackers coach.
With Jim Knowles as the defensive coordinator, the Volunteers have one of the best defensive staffs in all of college football. With Inge out, the Volunteers have filled the position by committee, and the defense has continued to be one of the best defenses in the country.
Tennessee has been showing support during Inge’s absence, as the players and coaches have been wearing T-shirts emblazoned with “Inge Built” during his absence.
The Volunteers have a big game on Saturday night, as they host Kentucky in a game with major implications in both the SEC and the College Football Playoff. Getting to see Inge is only going to add to the excitement for the team, and it figures to be an electric night in Knoxville.
