Will he be eligible to play in 2016?

On S Jones...

"He had been seeking to return to UT for more than a week. Had gotten to Colorado and told people he realized it wasn't a good fit for him.

But, he had triggered a transfer status so his return to UT was predicated on Colorado being willing to release him.

Finally the Buffs have done so. Strong character move by that program, bc they lose an initial from having Sheriron for those few days.

Anyway, he has been readmitted to UT --- today is the drop-add deadline --- and is immediately eligible bc he is returning to his original school. Will be back in Knoxville this weekend and will be full-Go w/ classes & workouts next week.

This I am told was all Sheriron. He called Butch Jones and others on staff, hat in hand, said he made a mistake and wanted to return. And now he is."
