There remains some mystery at a handful of positions for ninth-ranked Tennessee, most notably perhaps at cornerback opposite Cameron Sutton and also some backup roles along the offensive line and at wide receiver.

Butch Jones, however, squashed any notion of just who might serve as backup to incumbent senior quarterback Josh Dobbs.

"Quinten Dormady," Jones said during Tuesday's press conference. "He's one snap away."

Jones further indicated that Dormady "had his best day (practice) yesterday."

A former highly regarded signal-caller out of Texas, Dormady consistently has drawn praise for his on-target passing. Coaches also believe Dormady can "get them 6 yards" at a time on some running plays if needed.

Last year as a rookie, Dormady completed 13 of 22 passes in very limited backup work for 209 yards, a touchdown and no interceptions.
