Ex-Tennessee running back Eric Gray heading to Oklahoma as transfer

Former Tennessee running back Eric Gray is transferring to Oklahoma, he announced Wednesday.

Gray, who led Tennessee with 772 rushing yards and finished second on the team with 30 receptions in 2020, entered the NCAA's transfer portal last week after the Vols fired head coach Jeremy Pruitt.

The 5-foot-10, 205-pound Gray reportedly was deciding between Oklahoma and Texas, and he posted his decision on Twitter on Wednesday evening.
