Tennessee volunteers have competed in the Southeast Conference since its inception in 1932 and are consistently at the top. The Vols have adopted the tradition to compete in every sport often resulting in many teams that are ranked top 25. Tennessee has been known for the women's basketball and soccer programs that have featured several renowned coaches including Robert Neyland and Pat Summitt. The Tennessee football team won the first BCS National Championship and is also the 9th winner in the NCAA. The Tennessee women's basketball team won the 2007 and 2008 National Championships by grabbing the Pat Summit as the eighth national NCAA title, which at that time was the highest college basketball. Overall Tennessee has won 147 regular SEC championships and 23 national championships in women's basketball, soccer, indoor & outdoor indoor & amp; field, indoor & outdoor women & amp; field, and swimming & amp; man; dive. The only Tennessee sport that does not compete in the SEC is the rowing women who compete in the Big 12. The previous rowing team competed in C-USA. They won the USA USA Conference Row Championship 2010.
Many of the Tennessee traditions date from the early twentieth century. The orange and white colors of Tennessee were chosen by Charles Moore, member of the first soccer team in 1891. They were then approved by a student vote. The colors were chosen because of the usual American daisy growing on The Hill, a campus area that surrounds the most famous UT building, the Ayres Hall. The orange color is different from the school, dubbed "UT Orange", and has been offered by The Home Depot for sale as a paint, licensed by the university. The home game at Neyland Stadium has been described as "the sea of ​​Orange" because of the large number of fans wearing school colors; moniker Big Orange , as in "Go Big Orange!", derived from the use of UT Orange. Tennessee adopted the name Volunteers, or more commonly, because the official nickname was now accepted in Tennessee during the 1812 War, the Volunteer Country >. The name became more prominent in the Mexican War when Governor Aaron V. Brown issued a call for 2,800 people to fight in Santa Ana and about 30,000 people of the Tennessean voluntarily. The 'T' icon representing the Tennessee men's sports program was introduced by Doug Dickey and later redesigned by Johnny Majors. Separated male and female programs allow women's sports to adopt a separate identity other than men by not only calling themselves Lady Lady's but also adopting Columbia Blue colors into their uniforms and adopting different logos with different 'T' which represents Lady Vols. The famous Smokey mascot was introduced in 1953 by Pdt. Bill Brooks who entered with a prize-winning blue prize, "Brooks' Blue Smokey," in a contest at the part-time match of Mississippi State that season. The dogs marched on the path of the old cheerleaders at Shields-Watkins Field and each dog was introduced above the loudspeakers and the students cheered for their favorites, with "Blue Smokey" being the last introduced dog. When his name is called, he barks. The students cheered and Smokey tossed his head back and barked again. It keeps going until the stadium is upset and UT has found his mascot, Smokey. The famous and unique tradition of running through the 'T' during the game days began in 1965 when Doug Dickey moved the team bench to the east side and asked the team to come in and just spun back to their side through a giant 'T' performed by Pride of the Southland Band. Changes occurred in 1983 and 2010, ie the direction of the team from just turning right and then leaving T. From the team locker room in the north end zone. One of the largest and most popular trademarks and most known tourist spots, besides through T, about the sport of Tennessee is the orange and white checkered end zone introduced in 1960 and reappeared in the 1980s, inspired by the design of the dam the Ayres Hall showcases its brickwork, and can also be found at the Thompson-Boling Arena on the basketball court. The Hill is another very impressive aspect about UT because since the 19th century, The Hill has become a symbol of higher education in the state of Tennessee. The University, founded in 1794 as Blount College, moved to "The Hill" in 1828 and quickly grew up around it. The main part of UT's old campus stands on this rise above the northern coast of the Tennessee River. The Neyland Stadium lies at the base of The Hill, between it and the River. The Vol Navy is one of the most unusual experiences for a game day at any school because only UT, University of Pittsburgh, and University of Washington are adjacent to major water bodies. Today, about 200 boats of all shapes and sizes form a huge floating tailgate party on the river every autumn, and boats begin arriving a few days before the home game. The "Pride of the Southland" is one of the most recognizable bands in the country and has represented the state of Tennessee for the past 40 years in eleven Presidential Inaugurations, from Dwight D. Eisenhower to the first inauguration of Barack Obama. The band has also made over 40 bowl appearances, including Sugar Bowl, Astro Bluebonnet Bowl, Citrus Bowl, Gator Bowl, Bowl Hall of Fame, Garden State Bowl, Sun Bowl, Liberty Bowl, Peach Bowl, Fiesta Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Orange Bowl, and Rose Bowl. One of the most famous college fighting tracks in the country is the beloved Rocky Top, the unofficial struggle song for the Vols, which has become a ritual for every sport in UT to play in the game (to annoy the opponent). Baseball
The University of Tennessee baseball team has had quite successful programs reaching the NCAA Tournament nine times and the NCAA College World Series four times (1951, 1995, 2001, and 2005). They have produced players like Todd Helton, Joe Randa, Chris Burke, and overall number one choice in the 2006 Major League Baseball Draft, Luke Hochevar. In 2011 Tennessee hired Dave Serrano to replace Todd Raleigh who finished the season with a record loss including one of the worst SEC records in Tennessee history. Serrano, who was an assistant coach in Tennessee from 1995 to 1996, came to UT with 289-139-1 (0.675) in seven seasons as Division I head coach. Serrano is also one of 11 coaches who have managed to take two different schools to Series World College. Serrano officially resigned after the 2017 baseball season.
