Tennessee freshman defensive back Orlando "Boo" Carter was caught recording an Instagram live video in the locker room after Saturday's 69-3 win over Chattanooga.
Carter had two solo tackles in the blowout victory. Afterwards, Carter began recording an Instagram video in the locker room showing himself dancing to celebrate. It was all fun and games, until head coach Josh Heupel got wind of what he was doing. Heupel called Carter's name, and Carter immediately realized he was busted and cut the video feed short.

We have seen live soccer goal celebrations on Instagram before, but locker rooms are supposed to be more private. Coaches want to have control over the video that becomes public from locker room footage. Although there was nothing inappropriate in this video, we would guess Heupel was not happy with Carter doing this. It should be interesting to see if this impacts Carter's playing time going forward.
