From their version of BH:
Former UNC secondary coach Charlton Warren has been named to the same position at Tennessee.
The Volunteers announced the hire via a release on Monday morning.
Warren joined the North Carolina coaching staff in 2015. UNC posted the 10th-best passing defense in the NCAA in 2016, allowing only 180.8 yards per game through the air. The Tar Heels allowed only 11 passing touhdowns, the fourth-fewest in the NCAAA. Senior cornerback Des Lawrence earned third-team All-ACC honors. Junior cornerback M.J. Stewart was named first team All-ACC by Pro Football focus.
In his first year in Chapel Hill, Warren played a major role for a UNC defense that allowed 14.5 fewer points from the previous season, the best improvement of any Power Five program. UNC also has the most improved pass defense in the country in both pass efficiency and yards per pass attempt. The Tar Heels led the ACC in interceptions, turnovers gained and passes defensed while posting an 11-3 record and earning a berth in the ACC Championship game.
Warren recruited at a high level during his time in Chapel Hill. He recruited the Atlanta area and parts of Florida (Jacksonville) for the Tar Heels.
UNC has now lost two defensive coaches to SEC teams. Defensive line coach Tray Scott left for Ole Miss in late December.
