Reynolds Making His Own Way

Posted Aug 14, 2006

Garrett Reynolds is the son and nephew of former pros that each graduated from Tennessee. The gigantic tackle grew up 15 minutes from Neyland Stadium, but attending school there never really crossed his mind. “I lived in Knoxville my whole life,” said the 6-foot-7, 300-pound sophomore. “UT is a great school, but in my personal opinion, their discipline level wasn’t very good. I heard about every time they got into fights. I don’t want to have a teammate that doesn’t know how to act or doesn’t have any self-respect." (Inside Carolina)
