It was just two weeks ago that Tennessee redshirt freshman quarterback Sheriron Jones decided to transfer. He had his destination picked out and everything.
Now, Jones has been released from his scholarship at Colorado and seems poised to return to Tennessee.
Buffaloes head coach Mike MacIntyre made the announcement on Friday, saying that he and Jones came to the conclusion that a return to Knoxville would be in the quarterback’s best interest.
Here’s the statement in full posted by Adam Munsterteiger of BuffStampede.com, which mentions the NCAA rule that allows a player to return to the school he transferred from if done within a two-week period:
