Taking a trip down memory lane with No. 63: A look back at past Tennessee student-athletes who wore the iconic jersey number

The Tennessee football team is ready to kick off its 2024 season in just 63 days. Their first game will take place on August 31 against Chattanooga at Neyland Stadium, with kickoff scheduled for 12:45 p.m. EDT and the SEC Network airing the game. This upcoming season marks the fourth year under head coach Josh Heupel, who has led the team to a record of 27-12 and three bowl games in his first three seasons.

As the countdown to the start of the 2024 season continues, Vols Wire is taking a look back at past Tennessee student-athletes who wore jersey number 63. Some notable players to have worn the number include Norbert Ackermann, Bobby Neyland, and Brett Kendrick.

The list of players who wore No. 63 at Tennessee spans several decades, with names like Bob Dobelstein, Mack Gentry, and Jason Respert all having worn the number during their time with the team. The information provided is sourced from the 2023 Tennessee Football Media Guide. This story was originally featured on Vols Wire.
