Great recruiter, was here longer then all the other coaches, but did he really bring anyone in. I don't know, so am asking.

who knows...maybe since he is the recruiting coordinator he is the scapegoat for what some might consider less than acceptable results?

I think this is starting to be more of a common thing. Hold over a member from the old staff just for recruiting purposes. Now that this class is signed sealed and delivered he is out the door. I believe Kirby Smart did this when he took the UGA job.

Gran is Offensive Head Coach, OC and RB coach at Kentucky. Going to take a lot to lure him away. Graham followed Jimbo to aTm. Don’t see us getting him either.

No idea if this is accurate, but I've never been a fan of staff hold overs. Prefer a clean sweep/start. New staff and turn this roster over as fast as possible.

I could be wrong but I do believe Kirby Smart maybe kept our current coach Tracy Rocker on for a little bit until after signing day then he was let go.

He was the one guy anyone wanted to keep. not sure how this could be told as a good thing.

guess it depends on the replacement but I don't feel good about this.

Not a big deal imo.

CRG is an outstanding running backs coach, and soon Tennessee will have another outstanding running backs coach. By Doug Mathews’ account just now on 104.5 the Zone in Nashville, he wasn’t particularly surprised, thinks it was likely CRG’s decision and that he likely already knows where he’s headed. He too thinks that while CRG was very good here, that it won’t be very difficult to replace a running backs coach who can recruit here.

Thanks Coach G and good luck!

I'm sorry, but I am getting less and less excited about this staff every day.

Call me a negavol or whatever you want, but I haven't seen a whole hell of a lot that makes me feel good.

I never was excited about this staff...Still not...You try to stay positive about things but there it is glaring right back at you like a bad toothache that just won't go away...This wait and see crap is old and very outdated...We all KNOW how the movie ends...Depressing
