Good article on VQ about about how our running backs will be more involved in our passing game VolQuest - For Tennessee's backfield, it's all about space.
I couldn’t help but notice Pruitt’s move of Johnson to RBC when he was such a good WRC, but this makes me feel much better about it. I would imagine Johnson welcomed the experience, as experience at multiple positions will only benefit his career—especially if the RBs are going to be more involved in the passing game.
That said, it is interesting to note that while some of the coaches on this team were on last year’s team, about half of our coaches are first timers coaching the positions they are now coaching >while at Tennessee<.
Weinke was moved to QB (better fit), Sherrer to STC & ILBC (better fit), Ansley to DC/DBs (1st year hire. Never been DC before, but he is the man for DBs... all of these hires and their assignments makes me think Pruitt is going to focus more on D and he has that experience), Martin Receivers (Huge 1st year hire at that position), Chaney (another huge 1st year rehire at that position).
I think I stated in another thread that we may feel all of that newness at each position this year, but as stated above these moves make a lot of sense when you consider Chaney will have free reign over the O. There are, however, a lot of articles about Chaney’s offenses being better in year two, but has he ever had a staff like this that is as turn-key?
What are your thoughts?
