In Knoxville, Tennessee, 102,000 voices rose together inside Neyland Stadium to sing Dolly Parton's 'I Will Always Love You' — a moment that transformed a football season opener into something closer to a communal rite of mourning and gratitude. The Tennessee Volunteers, wearing orange butterfly helmet decals bearing her name, chose not merely to remember Parton but to embody what she had always represented: the idea that greatness and rootedness need not be opposites. It was a reminder that the deepest tributes are not spoken but sung, not announced but felt.
