Freshman running back Treyvon Paulk has been dismissed from the Tennessee football team, according to Butch Jones.

Paulk Accused of Assault

Monday, 22 September 2014
The Knox County Sheriff’s Office responded to a call of a domestic situation involving a U.T. football player. According to the incident report, a KCSO Family Crisis detective met with the victim, 18 year old Chelsea Reese Sunday afternoon. She stated that she was attending a party at Quarry Trail Apartments at 4135 Highland Crest Way Saturday and was talking with her ex-boyfriend, Treyvon Paulk. She said the two began arguing and Paulk became very agitated and struck her in the mouth with his fist. The report says that Reese had cuts to her lips, but refused medical treatment. The KCSO Forensic Unit took photographs of Reese’s injuries.

Today, Reese has refused to prosecute or take out an order of protection.

  1. Man CBJ gives you two opportunities and they are get with it or get gone….I hope this young man finds his nitch

  2. Dang Treyvon, have you not seen the coverage of the Ray Rice incident? Keep your hands to yourself.

  3. Glad CBJ holds the Vols to a higher standard.

    Over at FSU, winston is an embarrassment for the university.

  4. Some people (football players) never seem to learn that hitting women is a big no-no. This guy needs help to get his emotions under control.

    • On the surface, it seems to be the right move by Butch. Although it seems now that Paulk is denying that he hit her.

    • I am pleased to hear that CBJ will never falter in his values, and the values he’s established as the core for this team. No player is bigger than the team, and unless his life was in danger (based on the reports he clearly wasn’t) a man should NEVER raise his hand to a woman, no matter how angry he is. Good decision, and I pray that Mr. Paulk can find the guidance he needs to improve his treatment of the women in his life.

  5. Would someone please call Stoops at Oklahoma and tell him there is another fish on the line.

  6. I wasn’t there, therefore, didn’t see it, therefore, no opinion.
    I do recall a story of an early american occurrence known as the Salem Witch Hunt.
    It’s Halloween, so what’s scarier guys…Witches or the People that hunt them ?
