You’ve probably heard the word “unprecedented” more in the last few months than you ever thought was possible, but these truly are unprecedented times when it comes to college football.

As the SEC prepares for the start of fall camps on Monday, the Tennessee Volunteers got a bit of motivation from a former player.

As you can see below, Inky Johnson spoke with the team recently, explaining how they can stay motivated during this strange COVID-19 impacted season:

It’s hard not to find Johnson’s speeches motivational. It’s no surprise he has more than 315,000 Twitter followers.

Yes, this season is going to be a weird one, but that’s no reason players can’t achieve their goals, according to Johnson.
