The Good News For Tennessee Football Regarding Arion Carter’s SuspensionTennessee football received a blow Wednesday when the NCAA announced that it was suspending linebacker Arion Carter for the first two games of the 2026 season. After changing course and deciding to return to Tennessee for his senior season, the NCAA revoked the suspension. “We disagree with the NCAA’s ruling on punishing Arion with a multi-game suspension this fall,” Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel said in a statement.
