According to a friend of mine, who was a player at Tennessee, the whole thing is a result of NIL money and what Hooker is getting and what Jeremy Banks is not. It erupted when Banks walked on the power T in the locker room and Hooker demanded that Banks do the required push ups as punishment.

Banks(same guy that was kicked off the team in 2019 for telling cops they were lucky they didn't come from where he did, Cordova, because they shot cops there) took umbrage and went to blows.

This is when Heupel decided Banks would not make,the trip and the defense decided they would not give total effort.

It sounds to me like players, not coaches, need to go.
Saw a couple of vids last night that said the same thing.  And damned if it don't look like it, on a lot of plays.
If its true -- and I HOPE it's not -- 
that's just unbelievable (that word.  It has a universal application these days).
Forego a chance to get to the playoffs, and play for #1, over some NIL snit?

Say it ain't so...

Banks was already suspended before he stepped on the Power T.  The incident was after the suspension.  Banks has had numerous incidents.  Wasn't just Hooker that confronted Banks.

If that be the case then Banks career at UT should be over.  Don't be like coaches in the past letting it slide and lose control of the players.
