Coaching Staff Changes (David Johnson leaving for FSU)

[Lane Train 4]

If reports are correct

Trey Wallace says we arent going down without a fight.

 

[Volfan76]

Jay Graham...come on down!

 

[1TheCoach1]

A lateral move to coach under a HC he left to come coach at Tennessee? That makes a lot of sense for a career choice.

 

[Tallman]

Pay the man. we need those Memphis recruits. We also need someone who can recruit Florida.

He's not exactly been good on the recruiting trail, nor developing our backs. Won't hurt us much, if any at all imo.

JG leaving to attend " How to throw with accuracy academy" per Chaney.

Funny. But then it just reminds me that Jarrett has actually spent multiple offseason studying under some of the best quarterback gurus in the country. More confirmation that he has simply hit his ceiling.

 

[SmokyRiverDog]

Jay Graham...come on down!

Osovet would be the choice, right?

 

[PEPPERJAX]

I wouldn't mind dropping him and going after Harry Hiestand, who was here during Dooley years. He was a solid OL coach. Recruiting would be a concern, but not like Friend is some master recruiter. HH was also here with Chaney.

You lost me at Harry Hiestand.

Wasnt really a HH fan myself. Interesting that his name would come up right now, when he was let go by an NFL team in the last few days.

 

[NATHAN05]

I can see Weinke leaving, he hasn't shown ANYTHING in the QB development department.

Fyp bro

I honestly wouldn't mind him teaming back up with Chaney. We still had NFL caliber linemen on the team and they got better in Dooley's last two years.He also put 6 guys from Notre Dame in the NFL

They could pass block but run blocking left a lot to be desired. Don't think he would be an upgrade over Friend.

Pretty sure he is a big reason we’ve had so much success recruiting Memphis

 

[JMSqb11]

Seriously? We had refs actually showing Tiny how to properly line up during timeouts under Heistand

His time since UT days with Chaney have been days that are more good than bad. His Notre Dame days were lightyears ahead of his time at UT. He's also been in the Pro's for a while. I don't see how he would be worse than Friend.

 

[BlountvegasVol28]

Reports showing he has accepted RB coach at FSU

 

[77' Vol]

$$$ Money Talks $$$ Just business.

 

[griffdog14]

Tough hit to our recent Memphis recruiting pipeline

 

[rockytop989]

Thanks Jimmy

 

[GetEmVols]

It’s okay. We might replace him with someone even better.

 

[livefaith]

At least Lame didn't get him down there.

 

[pimo1]

Him leaving sucks. His leaving for the same job sucks even more. If he leaves for a promotion that can be spun positively. A lateral move does not look good no matter how you spin it. Hopefully this is just rumor

He Gone

I don’t think $$ would have been an issue had Pruitt wanted him here. Odd though, since his forte is WRs. I could see him leaving to get back in that role. I think theres a chance Tee gets promoted to QB coach and Weinke gets moved or fired. I don’t think Chaney is in sync with this staff.
