Fans who were in Neyland Stadium this past weekend for the Tennessee Vols' overtime win against the Florida Gators swear that the energy in the building changed in the second half when 13-year-old UT fan Cayson Cagle was shown dancing on the jumbotron.
“If he wasn’t on [the jumbotron], then they’d be booing, and if it went back to him, they’d start cheering again," said Carly Cagle, Cayson’s sister, to WVLT this week.
Numerous fans have suggested that Cagle's dance moves, and the way he changed the energy in Neyland, had an impact on the momentum of the game.
Vols wide receiver Dont'e Thornton agrees.
"The one little kid who was dancing, I think he's the reason we won the game," said Thornton on The Players Lounge. "He brought the energy back to the whole game, for sure."
It sounds like the Vols need to make sure Cayson Cagle is in Neyland Stadium for Tennessee's huge showdown with the Alabama Crimson Tide this weekend.
