That is correct, pretty much. UT's teams are named Volunteers -- Vols. And our school colors are orange and white. The sports program is also referred to as Big Orange -- so, sometimes it's all strung together as Big Orange Vols. Go Vols! :-)
Oakes Daylilies, which bred this variety, is located just outside of Knoxville, where the main UT campus is located. So it's natural for them to have team spirit.
