John Currie has been Tennessee’s athletic director since April, but he has a Masters degree from the school and spent nearly a decade of his professional career working for the Vols before taking his first AD job at Kansas State.

Tennessee Director of Athletics John Currie speaks during a press conference announcing new information concerning the Tennessee Lady Vols name, logo and brand at the Ray & Lucy Hand Digital Studio on the UT campus in Knoxville, Tennessee on Thursday, September 14, 2017.

Currie, in short, loves Tennessee athletics. And of course he loves Tennessee football.

So, no, Currie isn’t happy about the Vols’ heartbreaking, 26-20 loss at Florida on Saturday at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. He isn’t happy to see Tennessee open SEC play with a loss that will put it one game back in the standings with plenty of tough games left on the schedule.
