Last week, the Tennessee Vols unveiled their plans for the Lindsey Nelson Stadium renovations.

Here's the release from Tennessee:

Tennessee Athletics is thrilled to announce upcoming facility enhancements to Lindsey Nelson Stadium at Robert M. Lindsay Field. Lindsey Nelson Stadium is set to become one of the most premier college baseball venues in the country with improved player development areas, more seating for Vol Nation, wider concourses, more concession stands and restrooms, and NEW luxurious premium sections. The new home of Vol Baseball will aim to provide a world-class experience for current and future Volunteer student-athletes and fans alike.

There's no set date for the completion of the rennovations.

There will obviously be some great new amenities coming to Lindsey Nelson Stadium, but Tennessee baseball coach Tony Vitello — the main person at UT that's been pushing for renovations — is mostly concerned about one thing:

Vitello wants the fans as close to the field as possible.

Tennessee's head baseball coach made it clear this past week that regardless of how "fancy" the renovations end up being, he wants to make sure the fans are close to the field.

This absolutely shouldn't come as a surprise. Vitello is seemingly always praising Tennessee fans for showing up. Whether it's on the road or in Knoxville, Vitello is always quick to give Vols fans a shoutout.

Tennessee baseball has a good thing going right now and they're showing no signs of slowing down.
