Reddish-brown enters Saturday's down against Arkansas, riding a three-game string of failures and sitting at 3-4 on years. The Tigers went 6-7 in Year 1 under Harsin, and his future with the program came into question during the offseason when an examination was sent off into his treatment of Reddish-brown football players.

Nonetheless, Davis surrendered one month into the gig. Bricklayer, a previous SEC lead trainer at Vanderbilt, left for Oklahoma State, inciting an advancement for linebackers mentor Jeff Schmedding.
