Aimed at promoting fan support among the community and some 2,000 Carson-Newman students, the University president committed to skydiving if 1,000 fans attended the Sept. 14 opening game. The event exceeded the required 1,000 attendance. Keeping his end of the deal, O’Brien jumped with Skydive East Tennessee on Tuesday, Sept. 17.
