2005 season

[edit]

In 2005, Crompton enrolled at the University of Tennessee to play college football under head coach Phillip Fulmer. He redshirted his freshman year.[5][6]

2006 season

[edit]

In 2006, Crompton saw little action until an injury to starting quarterback Erik Ainge led to his first significant playing time against #13 LSU. Replacing Ainge in the second quarter, he threw for 183 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in the Volunteers' 28–24 loss at Neyland Stadium.[7] The following week was Crompton's first-ever collegiate start against Arkansas at Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Croptom would go 16-of-34 for 174 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception as the Volunteers lost 31–14.[8] Ainge's return against Vanderbilt meant limited playing time for Crompton. Crompton finished the season 31-of-66 passing with four touchdowns and two interceptions.[9]

2007 season

[edit]

As a sophomore in 2007, Crompton saw action as a reserve in seven games. He threw his lone touchdown of the season, a 49-yard pass to wide receiver Kenny O'Neal, in a 59–7 home victory over Louisiana-Lafayette.[10][11] He finished the season 7-of-12 passing for 98 yards, two interceptions, and one touchdown.[12]

2008 season

[edit]

In 2008, Crompton started the first four and the final two games of the season in the midst of what would be head coach Phillip Fulmer's last season with the Volunteers. He was the starter in wins over Alabama-Birmingham,[13] Kentucky,[14] and Vanderbilt;[15] however, his erratic play within the offensive scheme of newly hired offensive coordinator Dave Clawson contributed to a poor season for Tennessee, where they went 5–6 and missed a bowl game, and the subsequent firing of Fulmer.[16] He finished the season 86-of-167 passing (51.5%) with five interceptions and four touchdowns.[17]

2009 season

[edit]

When Lane Kiffin was hired as head coach of the Volunteers, he named Crompton the starting quarterback prior to the 2009 season.[18][19] Crompton, as a senior, finally achieved some success with the program. In Kiffin's first game as the Volunteers' head coach, Crompton had a great outing with 233 passing yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions in the 63–7 home victory over the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers.[20][21] Crompton led Tennessee to an upset 45–19 home rout of the Georgia Bulldogs[22] and was named the AT&T National Player of the Week. In a game at Bryant–Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, against undefeated, top-ranked, and eventual national champion Alabama, Crompton's passing had Tennessee in position for a game-winning field goal in the final seconds, only to see the kick blocked by Terrence Cody as the Crimson Tide escaped with a 12–10 win.[23][24] Crompton won five of his last seven starts in the regular season before the Vols lost 37–14 to Virginia Tech in the Chick-fil-a Bowl.[25] Crompton finished the season with 27 touchdown passes, 13 interceptions, and a 58.3% completion percentage.[26]
