New T-Shirts Showing Support For New UT Head Coach Jeremy Pruitt

 Looking for the perfect t-shirt, in the right shade of orange, for the special someone on your gift list this Christmas? The University of Tennessee's official campus store VolShop may have just the thing.

Two new designs, scheduled to arrive at VolShop locations on the morning of Saturday, Dec. 9, were created to support the new head football coach, Jeremy Pruitt.

One design featured the word many fans noticed Pruitt repeating during his first news conference under the title of head coach Thursday: "Aight." Memes began circulating online with variations of the word and the university's iconic Power T directly following the conference Thursday evening.

Another shirt was designed to play off the school's sport sponsor Nike, the slogan of which is, "Just Do It." The orange and smokey grey design featured at the VolShop includes a signature Nike font with the words "Just Pru It."

So, would you wear them? Sales start Saturday at VolShop locations in Knoxville and online.
