Just when you thought the bad news was dying down, Tennessee football got hit with another twist. Less than two weeks before the start of spring practice, three defensive Vols, one returning redshirt freshman and two early enrollee signees, have gotten wrapped up in legal issues.

According to WBIR, redshirt freshman linebacker Martavius French, early enrollee linebacker Aaron Willis and early enrollee Isaac Washington were identified among a group of players facing misdemeanor drug charges.
