Trump's Presence Causes Audio Issues During Texas-Tennessee Game

President Trump's presence at the Texas-Tennessee game created audio issues during the broadcast and potential communication problems between coaches and players.

Less than six minutes into Saturday's top-25 showdown, sideline reporter Laura Rutledge addressed potential communication issues due to Trump's attendance. Teams had worked with Secret Service to clear radio frequencies, but concerns remained about coach-to-player communication. albergomalica.it

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian had previously warned that Trump's presence could cause headset cuts without warning when the president enters, leaves, or moves within the stadium. At the time of the issues, Texas led Tennessee 10-3 after running back Raleek Brown scored a 9-yard touchdown in the first quarter.
