Bob Shoop officially announced as Vols' defensive coordinator

[utvolpj]

Not paying the buyout is crazy talk. Franklin is about to be toast

 

[vol-un-tear]

This class will probably close strong but the following years class from
What I hear from players and various coaches could be one of the best of all time.

Keep recruiting brother! You have tons and tons of respect! Go Vols!'

Kyle Phillips back... Derek Barnett..... Shy....Khalil...Kirkland......reminds me of 98-01

You guys were loaded back then. Both sides.

 

[Preds&Vols]

Who will be responsible for his buyout, if not Tennessee?

Donor money would be my guess

 

[JMSqb11]

If UT isn't responsible for the buyout, must say that Penn State has become toxic with James Franky running the show.

 

[Burhead]

I'm confused about the buyout part. Did penn state just put his buyout under the bridge or what? I would assume penn state would like that 800k unless they did him a favor and said don't worry about it?

My guess is they either renegotiated it or Shoop wanted out so bad he said he would pay it himself.

 

[ALLVOL24-7-365]

Very nice has the players to have a top 5 defense!

 

[ReaderVol]

First Larry Scott now Shoop. It's a shame Jones and Hart don't know what they're doing. LOL

 

[Vols4life]

[82_VOL_83]

Under rated post IMO.

Bob Shoop’s deal with #Vols: 3 years, $1.15 million per year. Tennessee not responsible for Penn State buyout. That’s between PSU, Shoop.

Dang gotta be bad when your coordinator pays out of his own pocket to get the heck away from you.

 

[newyorkvol]

Sweet.

But now I have a lot of work to catch up on after taking the last almost 48hrs off to follow VN

That's what I was thinking

This is likely going to be the best thing that has ever happened to KM and KP in a football kind of way. Buckle it up guys.

Don't forget about shy tuttle too.

 

[ManchesterV]

Random question. Is the orange tie and power T pin photoshopped or did we suit him up yesterday ??

Yep!, the posters on the PSU boards will flip the F out over Tennessee not paying the buy out and virtually the same salary he was making!

This is a fantastic day!

Boosters have deep pockets!

BOOM!!!!:good!:

 

[UTVolinExile]

No buyout is really interesting here. Shoop turns down AU and LSU, but comes to UT without us paying a huge buyout? Incredible.

[DD4ME]

Boooom

 

[Volunteer_Kirby]

BOOM!

 

[Lopedogg03]

Boom! We actually went after and got our top choice!

I'm betting the timing of this can't hurt with Derrick Brown.
