Tennessee basketball player Chris Darrington intends to transfer at the conclusion of the semester.

A native of Toledo, Ohio, Darrington appeared in 25 games as a junior for the Volunteers this season. He scored a season-high 11 points and logged five assists in UT’s win over Lipscomb, and he scored six points off the bench as the Vols defeated NC State in the Battle 4 Atlantis.

“We appreciate all of Chris’ contributions both on and off the court this past year,” Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes said. “We all wish him nothing but the best moving forward.”

Darrington came to Tennessee after starring for two seasons at Vincennes University in Indiana, where he was a first-team junior-college All-American.

He has been officially granted permission to contact other schools.
