During the past three years Phillp Fulmer has seen over a dozen of his Tennessee Vols players get in trouble with the law. (As you can see, here, here, and here) The charges in those cases have ranged from disorderly conduct to aggravated assault, but the latest Vol transgression may well take the cake; walk on wide receiver Justin Jackson has been kicked off the team after being arrested for crack:
Tennessee walk-on football player Justin Jackson was dismissed from the team Thursday by Coach Phillip Fulmer after being arrested and charged Wednesday night with the alleged sale or possession of crack cocaine.
Jackson, who played at West High in Knoxville, transferred to UT from Maryville College. He was a non-recruited walk-on receiver for the upcoming season. The arrest occurred at a East Knoxville housing project.
All I can say is that Phillip Fulmer is really lucky that Myles Brand is in charge of the NCAA and not Roger Goodell.
