Former Adidas clients, Tennessee and Nike look to start their new partnership in less than a month. The Volunteers signed an 8-year, $24 million deal with Nike that is to start in July.
With less than a month, it appears that the athletic department has wasted no time as the basketball courts are already seeing a new look.
The rumors of the new word marks were released earlier this afternoon.

The new look is likely only the beginning of changes we will see to the Volunteers in the upcoming months.
