KNOXVILLE, TN (News Sentinel) -- Tennessee running backs coach Jay Graham, a former Vol great who returned to his alma mater just over a year ago, is leaving for Florida State.

New head coach Butch Jones confirmed the news on his Twitter account this morning.

"The process of adding a new coach to our staff is underway, and we will hire the best person possible as we continue to build our program," Jones wrote.

Graham, 37, came to Tennessee from South Carolina after the 2011 season and spent one year under coach Derek Dooley.
