Debord to Indiana as OC

[Stoked]

Debord was a good OC. We had one of the top offenses ever at Tennessee (if not the top)

I think we are getting Oregon's former head coach.

Rich Brooks?

Beat me too it!

Wow Indiana though, wasn't aware of that?

Returning to the big.

[UT_King]

[sanddune50]

Open up the checkbook and bring in Helfrich

Cue the It's Happening gif. 😆

 

[orange parmejohn]

Very surprised that he is leaving for another school.

Now,hire someone good, and give them complete control of the offense.

I'm not sure how I feel about this. On one hand I'm optimistic and then on the other I'm a little concerned with what CBJ will do. Debord wasn't terrible.

 

[musolfmj]

Good luck to you Mike. Thought you did a good job. But Lordy, why Indiana?

 

[93TNVol]

Dude getting out of crazy town. Maybe it was Debord that said, "F*** all of them?"

Why would any coach choose Indiana football over the great tradition at UT?

 

[CountVolcula]

Great move by Butch

 

[Power T-Rev]

butch going with him?

You wish

 

[OrangeInKy]

Now hire someone good and not a clone.

Fulmer did that after Cut and got canned

 

[Fireflame865]

Give me helfrich or give me death

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

I think he's from Indiana if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Larry Scott to be promoted as OC.

....because the decision to not bring him back was made after the Vandy game.

Wasn't a choice.

 

[TechnoVol]

Oh... and let me just say we have officially begun "Silly Season"!

 

[OrangeInKy]

Not sure Debord was the issue. I think the issue is a paranoid, micromanaging HC. The same HC who refused to play Dobbs his first 2 seasons until he had no choice. Maybe I'm wrong.

Going out on a limb here and saying it probably wasn't his choice on leaving.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

Helfrich. Now.

This. Make Touchdowns Great Again!

Not really. If Butch was insisting that a OC/QB coach be brought in, that would lead to a demotion of Debord to OL or at best, co OC. Either way it's perceived as a demotion. Debord obviously wasn't ready to retire so he took the opportunity to make a lateral move. The question is will Butch be able to fill the OC job with someone as good or better than Debord?

 

[Power T-Rev]

Seems Butch has finally decided to cut ties with his buddies and do what it takes to win. Hopefully he allows the new OC to have complete control of the offense
