Tennessee linebacker Darrell Taylor spoke to the local media in a group session on Tuesday at SEC Football Media Days.

He covered a lot of different topics including what he thinks of first-year defensive coordinator Derrick Ansley.

“I think he’s brought a lot. He’s helped us just as much as Coach Pruitt and the other guys on the staff have. I think he’s brought intensity to the defense. He’s brought a lot of other things that will help us be successful this year.”
