An anticipated press conference held by Tennessee Volunteer Coach Derek Dooley discredited rumors of a Dooley resignation and a new Vol defensive coordinator. Dooley focused on the Vol Nation future and was upbeat on the returning starters to the Knoxville Hill. Dooley did inform the media that DeAnthony Arnett, a heavy Vol recruit, has been officially released from the roster to transfer closer to his Michigan home to be near his ailing father.
