Bru McCoy’s playing status unresolved at Tennessee; USC releases statement

.@VolsWire continues to follow the slow-moving process involving former USC receiver Bru McCoy, who hopes to be able to play for Tennessee this season.

Another week has brought a lack of resolution to Bru McCoy’s playing status at Tennessee.

The former USC receiver is seeking a fresh start in Knoxville after a Trojan career which was marred by off-field troubles and complications.

As noted by our friends at Vols Wire, USC released a statement about the larger situation encompassing McCoy:

“USC has — consistent with NCAA rules — promptly and accurately responded to all requests from the University of Tennessee related to the eligibility of Bru McCoy. At no point since Bru entered the transfer portal in January have we objected to him being made immediately eligible to play at Tennessee. The issue of Bru’s eligibility ultimately rests with the NCAA, and we wish him the very best.”
