Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Marrone it is

Fulmer would love a Marrone hire because Marrone would keep him in the loop on everything. Fulmer would be like an extra coach in that scenario (for better or worse).

Some of y’all need to stop acting like Marrone is a good hire.

I could get behind Marrone Steele and Garner...it checks all the boxes. Especially if they take down UGA during the process.

 

[Ten_Titans]

I mean, this is common sense.

If it is Chadwell, he won't come if you force a staff on him. He will want to choose and should be given that opportunity.

THe Steele talks to me are a bit more worrisome. There are only two logical reasons you talk to him:

1. You want him to be the Head Coach
2. You have decided Jeremy is staying and Ansley is leaving and you are talking to him about being a DC

If Chadwell won't accept having coaches forced on him, he will never get this job or a job like this.

He can't show up to this job or a job like this and bring his Coastal Carolina staff. No one will go for that.

South Carolina fans are talking like Hyatt is going to enter the portal soon.

U serious?

 

[Kingston Vol]

Chaney is too complacent to make a move. It would have to be served up to him.

Your wording here is excellent.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Fisher and Marrone will both be boring.

And THAT will be the kiss of death, the final nail in the coffin of a program already stuck in the doldrums..

Awesome how this is centered around Mims and Washington and yet, both of them signed with UGA.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Chadwell should get to pick his own staff and if that means bringing Staggs as he DC, then so be it. I wouldn’t want a job where the AD forced a guy onto my staff.

I wouldn't want a guy forced onto my staff either.

 

[MrVolton]

A now we disagree again..those two are the same level of crap to me.

Not even close.

That's the most "Tennessee" aspect of all of this. We'll get busted for cheating to get players who didn't even come here.

It feels like there’s two scenarios right now for the replacement. Fulmer gets his way - Marrone as HC with Steele as DC and Garner as DL coach. If others get their way - Chadwell is the new HC and he brings his own staff and maybe Steele sticks around as an analyst since he’s being paid very well by Auburn to leave.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Who would Marrone hire as OC? That's the big question.

 

[volinbama256]

He doesn't run it in a traditional way is the point. Someone had the offensive stats in here a few pages ago. They have basically equal rushing and passing yards. This isn't a traditional triple option offense. Paul Johnson only passed to surprise teams. CC passes the ball all over the field.

I like the fact though that they have plays built in for the option if needed, and with Salter/Hooker in the backfield, along with Gray, Beckwith(hopefully), Brown, we could really do some damage... if we were able to get Gilbert as well, we'd be very dangerous..

Well, he isn't a bad hire. Might not be a good one either. But Idk. Steele would be far worse

 

[LA Vol]

Pruitt has been interviewed. Outside counsel is re-interviewing.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

But probably safe. Especially with the right OC hires. Chadwell may have a higher ceiling. But he likely has a much lower floor.

Exactly how in the hell is hiring boring dead career dudes like that "Safe"? It is not safe, it is program suicide.

 

[Yeiser10]

Chaney. He isn’t leaving imo

 

[Aesius]

Would be hilarious to hire another guy who lost to a previous fired guy (Butch lost to Dooley, Marrone lost twice to Butch). I know it doesn't mean all that much but still funny.

Why can’t fulmer just piss off?

 

[NoogaVol33]

Marrone with Steele and Garner could be pretty good if you get a creative OC

My $ has always been on Marrone. I agree with Basilio. Tennessee needs experienced and adult. Someone who can deal with all the clutter without being intimidated.

He can't show up to this job or a job like this and bring his Coastal Carolina staff. No one will go for that.

Who was forced onto Pruitts original staff? Absolutely nobody that’s who. He showed up with a list of guys that were willing to work for him and THAT was a big reason Fulmer hired him.

When you say no one, you really mean just you, right?

 

[BSOVOL1967]

I would rather take a chance on Chadwell, instead of hiring Marrone. Just my thoughts... Chadwell is certainly a risk, but Marrone hasn't really had an impressive head coaching record except for one good season in Jacksonville, and one OK season in Buffalo. The college coaching gig at Syracuse to me was just ok, and we all know the competition will be much more difficult in the SEC, compared to the ACC. IDK, seems like rolling the dice either way between both of those choices, but I would think based on Chadwell's background that UT would be his ultimate dream job, and I don't think Marrone looks at Tennessee as his ultimate job, and I think we need someone with high energy and enthusiasm for the Tennessee job.

That’s good news....
