Troubled Hughes
dismissed by Dooley
KNOXVILLE (AP) — Tennessee coach Derek Dooley has dismissed defensive tackle Montori Hughes for unspecified reasons.
The 6-foot-4, 327-pound junior from Murfreesboro played in 12 games in 2010, recording 17 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss and a sack.
Hughes was suspended during the Volunteers’ final regular season game against Kentucky for a violation of the team academics policy.
He was also present at a bar brawl in July that left a police officer seriously injured but was never charged with wrongdoing.
The tackle appeared to have slipped behind converted offensive lineman Daniel Hood and junior college transfer Maurice Couch on the Vols’ depth chart.
Still, his dismissal could still hurt a unit which struggled from lack of depth a season ago.
