Filing: Vols coach scolded WR for aiding woman

Tennessee football coach Butch Jones told sophomore wide receiver Drae Bowles that Bowles "betrayed the team" by helping a woman who said she'd been sexually assaulted by two football players, a new filing in the lawsuit against the school revealed Wednesday.

The filing, obtained by The Tennessean newspaper, states that Jones later apologized for calling Bowles a traitor.
