KNOXVILLE — The start to the basketball season wasn’t one that transfer guard Darlinstone Dubar had hoped for at Tennessee. Dubar had to miss the first two weeks of the season due to an undisclosed personal matter.

However, by the time the Vols hit the road to Illinois, Dubar had to step into a larger role, in part due to team foul trouble.
