This statue honors Brig. Gen. Robert R. Neyland, who served as commander and district engineer of the Nashville and Chattanooga Districts in 1933 and 1934, while simultaneously teaching military science and coaching the Volunteers. While in the Corps of Engineers, Neyland is known for working and doing paperwork in the backseat of his car while en route between his various duties and his coaching hobby. He served three stints as the head football coach (1926–1934, 1936–1940, 1946–1952). Neyland holds the record for most wins in Tennessee Volunteers history with 173 wins in 216 games, six undefeated seasons, nine undefeated regular seasons, seven conference championships, and four national championships. His '39 squad is the last NCAA team in history to hold every regular season opponent scoreless. This photo is taken on Military Appreciation Day Nov. 3, 2012 at the Volunteers' game versus the Troy Trojans. (USACE photo by Leon Roberts)
