President Donald Trump is scheduled to attend Saturday’s game between No. 1 Texas and No. 14 Tennessee in Knoxville, Tenn., the White House Press Office confirmed to The Athletic. When Trump arrives at Neyland Stadium, both the Longhorns and Volunteers could face an inconvenient snag in their internal communication operations.
Whenever the president enters, exits or changes location within the stadium, coach-to-coach and coach-to-player communication over headsets get cut briefly, Texas coach Steve Sarkisian explained at a press conference.
