Report: Tennessee football hires Jay Graham to fill open position

One of the open spots on the Tennessee Volunteers football staff has been filled. According to a report from VolQuest, Texas A&M running backs coach and co-offensive coordinator Jay Graham will leave his current job to join Jeremy Pruitt in Knoxville.

The position became a need for Tennessee shortly after it was announced that Florida State head coach Mike Norvell was targeting former Tennessee running backs coach David Johnson. Johnson did well at Tennessee, but his connections with Norvell proved too much to overcome. By January 4th, it was official that Johnson would be leaving to Tallahassee.
