Good piece by Randy Moore, even though DeBord apparently aged 3 years in just a few paragraphs...
DeBord makes quite clear that his job involves overseeing all of the offensive positions and not just the linemen. He also makes quite clear that the time he spends with the O-line in no way represents a lack of confidence in Mahoney. Simply put: The offensive line has a long way to go, and it will get there quicker with two guys rowing the boat instead of one.
Does Mahoney feel DeBord is meddling? Not at all. Mahoney seems genuinely thrilled by the assistance. He and DeBord clearly enjoy double-teaming the blockers. Twice the coaching may not mean twice the progress but it clearly accelerates the growth process for some of the Vols.
It does, Mahoney said said. You can never have enough eyes on the offensive line from stance to step to footwork to landmarks all of that. I think as linemen theres the excitement, myself included, when the offensive coordinator is that much involved.
