Brandon Warren left the field in disgust on Saturday night after tossing helmets and arguing on the sidelines with a coach.

Those will be the last images of the junior wide receiver with Tennessee.

The Alcoa product was dismissed by the Vols on Monday after his latest incident pushed coach Lane Kiffin past his breaking point.

"Brandon Warren is no longer with our team," Kiffin said. "He has been dismissed for conduct detrimental to our team. We wish him the best of luck.

"We’ll give him full academic support to keep him going in school, and that’s the last I’m going to comment on it. Very unfortunate."
