Jelly Roll is generally considered a universally-likable guy, unless you’re a Tennessee Volunteers fan. So, what did the popular country singer do to anger the entire fanbase?
Jelly Roll Is Hard Not To Like
As much as Jelly Roll spent years on the wrong side of the law, and as much as he had to make himself hard and tough to get through everything that he had to get through, you would never know it if you looked at him today, including where he is in life after everything that he has been through.
These days, Jelly Roll is a lovable teddy bear that seems to get along with just about everyone. Whether he is rubbing elbows with other famous singers like Lainey Wilson or Morgan Wallen, or stopping to talk to a grandmother at Walmart or a trucker on the road, Jelly now has an approachability factor to him that seems to pull all sorts of people in.
Tennessee Volunteers Fans Not Happy With The Singer, Why?
As much as most people seem to love Jelly Roll, that is absolutely not the case right now if you are a Tennessee Volunteers fan. While Jelly has represented for the Volunteers in the past, he did something recently that angered the entire fanbase. So, what did the “Need A Favor” singer do?
It turns out, while Jelly has done his part to represent for the Vols, the love he has for them may be limited to the football team only, and not across all of the sports. The singer was recently courtside, as he watched the Vols basketball team take on the Vanderbilt Commodores.
On the surface, it looked like the singer was rooting for Volunteers basketball. At least until Jelly was seen celebrating a play that went against the Vols, not for them. Fans take their sports very seriously, and as much as fans also love Jelly Roll, Volunteers fans took this as a blatant slap in the face from the singer.

- In response to Jelly Roll’s spirited reaction, one commenter wrote: “I only talk to Vols when I need a favor…”
- Another commenter chimed in, adding: “Industry plant confirmed.”
- A third person went on to add: “Careful Jelly, I get you live there but don’t tick off the Vols fanbase. We large and loud. But I’m still happy for your success, Just a tip is all…”
- A fourth person said: “Really? How you gonna claim two rival teams from the same state? WEIRD. Don’t ever come back to a Vols game you will be boo’d out the stadium.”
