Former UT strength coach arrested for breaking into arena office with a saw and stealing $4K

by @ 6:30 pm. Filed under Blue Blooded Opinions

Now for some “Tennessee being Tennessee” news: former Tennessee men’s basketball strength and conditioning coach Troy Wills was arrested for breaking into an office at Thompson-Boling Arena with a saw, ransacking the room causing $750.00 in damages, and stealing $4,150.00 from the desk. Wills was let go last season after being with the program for eight seasons. This wasn’t Wills’ first brush with the law: in December, he stole a bottle of tanning cream valued at $100 from Knoxville tanning salon.

Did he try to escape in a Prius, too?

    If he’s so strong then he shouldn’t have had to use a saw

  2. bluemanchew Says:

    i bet the desk that had the money in it was in the recruiting room

  3. confused Says:

    What does driving a Prius have to do with a petty crook that likes to go to tanning beds? Sorry I’m missing the reference

  4. Steady Says:

    Roids.

  5. Claw Says:

    Why is he former? Would be interesting to know. Get on it Secret Squirrel TT. Totally unrelated, but just watching local newscast here in Reno and they had that beggar/scam artist in Lexington story you had posted earlier. He’s getting national shame.

  6. Lakesidecatsfan Says:

    Who would have $4150.00 in a desk anywhere!? Didn’t read the article, hopefully it makes sense of it.

  7. Bubba Earl Says:

    The Big 12 has admitted their were mistakes in the Kansas game last night and that the officials involved will be reprimanded. Our dougie shows blew some bad whistles in that game I believe!

  8. Claw Says:

    I didn’t read carefully. If you steal a bottle of cream while making tons of money you are either delusionally cheap or seeking an adventurous thrill.

  9. SexnNursinHomes Says:

    All that for $4k. tsk tsk But he is a Vol. I shouldn’t be suprised. Hope he finds ass rape well worth that well devised heist.

  10. Claw Says:

    Thanks SexN for cutting through the crap as you always do and putting things in perspective.

  11. macon_volfan Says:

    All this is good and well, but he’s a FORMER Vol coach. This is just another life ruined by drugs (probably) if he weren’t FORMERLY associated with the UT program.

  12. SexnNursinHomes Says:

    10- Yeah, man, ya know. It is what it is. He’ll be crying to his momma in his second week.

    11- Pain pills I bet.

  13. CliffFrankLou Says:

    I guess he may be wearing orange for a few days….

  14. Keith Says:

    Don’t do Drugs!

  15. CPACAT Says:

    Prison Uniforms are often UT Orange (or so I’ve seen)…COINCIDENCE? I think not!

  16. maconvolfan Says:

    actually, prison uniforms are closer to a Clempson orange than UT’s.

  17. EC Says:

    We couldn’t ask for better arch rivals than Lousyville and Tennessee. They are the gifts that keep on giving.

  18. Jarnell stokes Says:

    Tell Alex I miss him. This patric young dude is nails

  19. MaconVolSidekick Says:

    @17…

    We aren’t your rivals.

    You are 1 of 28 against UT in football.
    We have been similarly dominated by you in basketball.

    That doesn’t spell “rivalry”. Saying it is so, doesn’t mean it is so.

  20. bluemanchew Says:

    19: so you randomly go on other teams blogs for no reason at all seems a little suspicious. A. we are either a rival or B. you are a UL fan either way you are a rival

  21. Gap Tooth Danny Says:

    You are all missing the most important detail: A BOTTLE OF TANNING CREAM COSTS $100! WTF!

  22. Blue Boy Says:

    Do you think ESPN could help clean this up and let him be Pearl’s wingman.

  23. jmfatz47 Says:

    Never mind the burglary story itself. Why was there 4k cash just chillin like that?! Seems odd. If it were UK, the questioning would be insane!

  24. BeauKnows Says:

    I have to ask the same question as others: What is $4100 doing in a desk drawer in an athletic office? Petty cash?

  25. Jmmy Dykes Caddy Says:

    #21 nailed it ! A bottle of tanning cream costs $100?
    Spring breakers are in trouble…the tanning cream will cost more than the gas this year.

    BTW, the UT security folks forgot to guard their yard!

  26. mocha Says:

    12 and Macon: lets get to the important matter, forget the 4k.
    Where the heck is wiggins going to school!? Also, any news on Jai Lucas?

  27. B. Obama Says:

    This isn’t this poor man’s fault, it is George Bush’s fault. This is still his economy, and because of budget cuts, ut had to let him go. I hope George W Bush can sleep at night knowing he drove this poor man to a life of crime. People down in Knoxville, have this man’s people get with my people – I’m sure Eric Holder can make this whole incident disappear from his record.

  28. blueballs14 Says:

    Looks like the cops shot him in the chin with a high powered pellit gun.

  29. the truth Says:

    yeah looks like a crack head to me
