KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee men's basketball guard Santiago Véscovi was made available for an interview on Wednesday and it didn't take long for him to get asked on a mystery that has been brewing since this past weekend.
The Vols were playing a nationally televised game against Villanova on Nov. 20 when the play-by-play announcer pronounced Véscovi's last name differently than Vols fans have become accustomed to in recent years.
The debate on where the emphasis goes in his last name became a hot topic in the past few days. That debate is now over. The guard clarified the pronunciation.
