The kick is up, and the kick is GOOD!

On this electrifying episode of The Super Fan Diaries, we are diving headfirst into the teal-colored waters of #Duuuval with one of the most decorated supporters in NFL history, Tyler Derby.

But here is the twist—this Jacksonville Jaguars Hall of Fame fanatic doesn’t even live in Florida! You simply will not believe the surreal, accidental run-ins Tyler has manifested through sheer passion, from a mysterious elevator ride that whisked him into the owner's private sanctuary to a stealthy, incognito airport rendezvous with the franchise quarterback that the rest of the world missed.

And the absolute crown jewel of his collection? A massive, three-foot physical key to the stadium presented by a gridiron immortal in the middle of a game. Does this key actually open the gates to EverBank Stadium? Is there a secret entrance only he knows about?

You have to tune in to uncover the mystery behind the key and hear the unbelievable stories that prove fandom is truly about family.

Game on, y’all—this week on Superfan Diaries, I sit down with Tennessee Volunteers legend-in-the-making Jeff Comeaux, the Knoxville-born, UT alum whose VolCam moment turned a missed kick into a viral meme and a million hushed heartbeats inside Neyland Stadium.

In my voice from the huddle: we rewind to the Johnny Majors years, the ’98 national championship night I stormed the field in a big orange tux, and the electric first glimpses of Peyton Manning, then fast-forward to the Tennessee–Georgia thriller where one camera shot changed Jeff’s life—and maybe the Vols’ karma.

Was he really “the kicker’s dad”?

What did he tell work before slipping into those third-row seats? And how do Billy Strings, the College World Series, and a pair of Florida upsets tie into a vow about the next five years in Knoxville?

Lace up and hit play—because the story behind that meme, that miss, and that Rocky Top resolve is bigger than a headline and too good to spoil.
