The Vol Navy is about to be a national phenomenon 👀 Leach just needs to own a pirate ship, turn it into a house boat and live in the shadows of Neyland Stadium.
 
Let's start with the latest, which appears to be that Tennessee has now set its sights on Washington State head coach Mike Leach. Vol AD John Currie was in California on Thursday where, according to sources, he interviewed Leach.

Leach made it clear early on in the search that he would listen if Tennessee was interested. Leach's AD Bill Moos left Washington State to go to Nebraska — and that's part of the reason Leach has wanted to hear from Tennessee.

Leach was scheduled to return to Washington State early Friday morning, but he has not communicated much with those in Pullman, we are told. A source strongly suggested to VolQuest late Thursday night that no deal was imminent, but discussions would continue on Friday. Clearly, there's plenty of speculation nationally about Leach becoming a Vol.

Currie was said to be traveling late Thursday night. Sources tell us that Currie is scheduled to be back in Knoxville on Friday morning, where he will likely meet with the Chancellor Davenport and update her on the search.

A name that may come up for this staff is Chris Hatcher. He was the QB for Leach and Mumme at Valdosta St. He's been a successful lower level college coach in Georgia, Kentucky, and Alabama.

Has deep recruiting ties to Georgia (born and raised there, and a head coach at Valdosta St and Georgia Southern for over a decade).

Could be a great addition as recruiting coordinator, QB coach, assistant head coach
