Tennessee is finalizing a deal with UCF’s Josh Heupel to be the Volunteers’ next head coach, a source tells The Athletic’s David Ubben. The news is expected to be announced later today.
Heupel will reunite with former UCF athletic director Danny White in Knoxville. White was hired last week to replace Phil Fulmer.
The Volunteers fired Jeremy Pruitt after a 3-7 season.
This is a developing story. More to come.
