Vols' name Wilcox as Dooley's coordinator

Tennessee has officially announced the hiring of Justin Wilcox as their new defensive coordinator.
Wilcox's name first emerged as a viable candidate yesterday after head coach Derek Dooley's search for a coordinator had met several dead ends since his arrival in Knoxville.
While he may not have been on the radar early on in the process, Wilcox said this opportunity "was too good to pass up".
"It's an unbelievable opportunity," Wilcox said in a statement. "I'm really humbled to be considered and for Coach Dooley to offer me the job. Boise State is an incredible place and I really wasn't looking to leave there. All this happened pretty fast.
"But after talking with Coach Dooley and a couple of the other coaches, and getting a feel for the way he wants to model the program and a lot of the philosophies he has, I just felt like it was a great opportunity at an unbelievable place in terms of the tradition. I think it's just one of those things that was too good to pass up and I'm excited to be here."
With Wilcox's departure from Boise State, defensive line coach Pete Kwiatkowski is expected to take over the Broncos' defense.
