He is credited with being the first coach to utilize sideline telephones and game film to study opponents. His teams also were some of the first to wear lightweight pads and tearaway jerseys.

The statue, which was commissioned by artist Blair Buswell, is twice life-size.

General Neyland himself was an outstanding scholar, as well as an athlete during his college days at West Point. It was the General's dream that the university offer four-year academic merit scholarships to students who possessed outstanding academic and leadership qualities. </p><p>Following Neyland's death in early 1962, <a href="/wiki/Andrew_D._Holt" title="Andrew D. Holt">Dr. Andrew D. Holt</a>, then UT president, announced that a nationwide campaign would be launched to raise a minimum of $100,000 to establish the Robert R. Neyland Scholarship Fund. In October 1962, at half-time of the UT vs. <a href="/wiki/University_of_Alabama" title="University of Alabama">Alabama</a> game, 165 women representing UT's <a href="/wiki/Sorority" class="mw-redirect" title="Sorority">sororities</a> collected more than $10,000 in a 15-minute time period at Neyland Stadium to launch the effort. By the end of fall 1962, more than $65,000 had been committed to the Neyland Scholarship fund. In the spring of 1963, a decision was made that proceeds from the annual Orange and White spring football game would go to help build the Neyland Scholarship Fund. </p><p>The first Neyland Scholarships were awarded in 1963.<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The first two recipients were Melissa Ann Baker of <a href="/wiki/Maryville,_Tennessee" title="Maryville, Tennessee">Maryville, Tennessee</a> (now Mrs. Ann Baker Furrow, a former member of the UT Board of Trustees) and Mr. Robert English Allen of <a href="/wiki/Columbia,_Tennessee" title="Columbia, Tennessee">Columbia, Tennessee</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Seven_Maxims_of_Football">Seven Maxims of Football</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Robert_Neyland&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Seven Maxims of Football"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>During the 1930s, Neyland began having his teams recite seven sentences that he felt summarized everything it took to win a game.
