<p><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/tennessee-volunteers">Tennessee Volunteers</a> fans have gone a long while without any good news, other than the termination of athletic director Mike Hamilton. So here's a very good development indeed: <a href="http://sbnation.com/ncaa-football/2011/7/6/2262523/janzen-jackson-returns-to-tennessee-football-university-confirms">Janzen Jackson is back on the team</a> after <a href="http://sbnation.com/ncaa-football/2011/2/7/1981122/janzen-jackson-withdraws-tennessee-personal-issues/origin">stepping away in February</a>.</p>
<p>Jackson had dealt with what were termed personal issues since late last season, even missing workouts at one point. His return gives the Vols defense some stability as the program <a href="http://blutarsky.wordpress.com/2011/07/06/kiffin-watch-leaving-a-mark/">continues to recover from the Lane Kiffin months</a> (<a href="http://www.everydayshouldbesaturday.com/2011/7/6/2262719/dont-say-lane-kiffin-didnt-leave-a-legacy-at-tennessee">while still sexily honoring his sexy legacy</a>).</p>
<p>A 2009 SEC all-freshman and 2010 All-SEC second-teamer, Jackson is one of the nation's best safeties, Tennessee's best defender and perhaps its best player. In a division that very well could include the SEC's top three passers, his talents against both aerial and ground assaults will prove invaluable.</p>
