Tennessee interim coach Brady Hoke dismissed Jauan Jennings after the junior wide receiver went on a profanity-laced tirade and blasted his coaches in an Instagram video, as relayed by Louis Fernandez of WBIR.

Jennings, who's missed most of the season due to injury, referred to the Volunteers' coaches as liars and snakes, and implored the university to bring in a better and more honest staff in the offseason. He also blamed the team's season-long struggles on the "weak-ass coaching staff holding us back."

Jennings posted 40 receptions for 580 yards and seven touchdowns as a sophomore and caught the infamous Hail Mary at Georgia.

The video is available on YouTube. It contains coarse language, including several F-bombs and N-bombs.
