KNOXVILLE (WATE) - In just six weeks, Neyland Stadium will be bursting with orange and white for the Vols first home game against Georgia State.

On Wednesday, season ticket holders got to "meet their seats" and check out the view they'll see at home games this fall.

"Born and raised here. Blood runs orange," said fan Chad Phillips.

This year, he's looking forward to bringing his son Clay, 3, to the games, so the recent news about Tyler Bray concerns him.

"I just don't know what's wrong with these young kids these days. They got everybody in this stadium cheering for them. I want them to do good. Their coaches want them to do good. They need to get their head on straight and play football," Phillips said.

His father, Walter Phillips, has a little different perspective. 

"He's probably embarrassed about it. I would be. That'd be a bigger punishment to me, just being caught and realizing I did such a stupid thing," he said.

Other fans are also more forgiving.

"Being in college at one point myself, we've all done some stupid things. I hope he at least learns from these things. I'll wait to see what the police come out with and what happens about it," said fan and UT graduate Andy Cole.
