KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Tennessee forward Armani Moore's college career has offered him lessons on the importance of adapting to change and responding to adversity.

As the Volunteers' top returning player in nearly every major statistical category, Moore is ready to spend his senior year applying what he's learned from all the upheaval. Moore and his teammates are adjusting to their third coaching staff in as many seasons.

"It's definitely something that nobody wants to go through," Moore said. "You've just got to live with (it). Everything happens for a reason."

Tennessee's transition period started when former coach Cuonzo Martin left for California after leading the Vols to a regional semifinal in 2014.
