Danny White was introduced as Tennessee’s athletics director on Jan. 22.
Since his hiring, a search is underway for a head coach to lead the Vols’ football program.
During White’s introductory press conference, he mentioned integrity being at the forefront of a head coach being hired.
“Integrity is an enormous part of who I am, of the people that we hire,” White said. “I want a head coach that I can trust unequivocally, and I know that person will hire a staff full of high-character people. That goes beyond just staying within rules and following regulations, whether they be university, conference or NCAA. It’s bigger than that.
“It’s having the right moral compass that’s going to rub off on our student-athletes. Be a role model for our student-athletes and make sure that we’re developing them in every way possible, that their parents will be proud of, that all of us will be proud of. Integrity is huge.”
