Tennessee fans start #FillNeyland campaign after firing of Butch Jones

There’s palpable excitement on Rocky Top this week, as the Tennessee Volunteers finally parted ways with embattled coach Butch Jones.

Now, only weeks after starting a #EmptyNeyland campaign calling for fans to stay away until AD John Currie fired Jones, the fans are back in support of the school and the team.

Therefore, ahead of this weekend’s game against LSU, fans have changed the Twitter campaign to #FillNeyland, calling on Vol Nation to step up and fill the stadium in Knoxville for a tough game against a strong LSU squad.

As you can see in the tweets below, the #FillNeyland campaign is now being met with almost as much enthusiasm as #EmptyNeyland was a couple of weeks ago.

Here are some of the top tweets heading into this weekend’s game:
