KNOXVILLE, TN -- Tennessee wide receivers coach Trooper Taylor has told some players that he's been offered the offensive coordinator position at his alma mater Baylor.

Tennessee receiver Austin Rogers said Monday that Taylor was
offered the position over the weekend and that Taylor planned to
sit down with coach Phillip Fulmer and talk about his future with
the Vols.

On Saturday, Tennessee offensive coordinator David Cutcliffe was
introduced as the Duke Blue Devils' head coach.

Rogers said he's under the impression that if Taylor is offered
the offensive coordinator position at Tennessee that he'll stay,
but will probably go if he isn't.

Tennessee spokeswoman Tiffany Carpenter said Monday night that
under the school's policy it doesn't comment on whether a coach
takes another position until after the other school has made an
announcement.
