Here's what McShay wrote about the Vol:Â
We mentioned Tennessee linebacker Herman Lathers in our Day 2 notebook, and on Day 3, he continued to impress. Linebackers coach Kurt Gouveia has been passionate about Lathers, who has fought through bone cancer. He is smart -- an academic All-SEC three times -- and plays with a chip on his shoulder. He is really growing on us as a football player and impressing us with his character.
