Faizon Brandon Named Starting QB | Tennessee Volunteers Football News

from Tennessee Volunteers Football Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

True freshman Faizon Brandon has earned the starting quarterback role for Tennessee’s season opener against Furman, beating out second-year George MacIntyre in a fierce battle that saw the coaches weigh both talent and future potential. Brandon, a five-star recruit once ranked No. 1 nationally, will lead the offense from day one — though MacIntyre may still see reps as the Vols look to build depth early in the season. The decision reflects how new NCAA rules are reshaping college football’s quarterback landscape, giving teams more time to evaluate and develop their signal-callers.
