How about Kacy Rogers for DC?

[1985Vols]

Why hasn’t someone at UT contacted the former Vol that is the D line coach at Tampa Bay? He was a d. coordinator for 4 years at the NY Jets and is a Tennessee native. Worth a call?

Definitely should kick the tires on him!

I’d this point I’d settle for Kenny Rogers. We could put some of his chicken places inside the stadium and at least feed some people.

The facts are no one know has and has not been contacted thus far. In the past there were so many unproven leaks that it frustrating. No with the lack of information being put out, there are a lot of assumptions flying around. We should all relax, trust our HC until proven we can’t and enjoy the ride. The one thing that is certain, we will have a DC at some point be season begins. Until we hire someone, there is a very qualified guy on staff (Steele).

Seems they want no former players just hiring the best they can hopefully

And the good news is he knows when to hold the offense, he also knows when its game over and to fold'em, and he could help the OC and tell him when to run.

He's a bit of a gambler so high risk, high reward

Don't be absurd. Kenny's dead.

I see Kenny as more of a OC that will "know when to run". I do think he could bring in Dolly to run her 34DDefense

Time to think outside the box, so to speak.

Hell, we had a stiff coaching us the last 3 years...

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

Kacy is an underrated hot chick name...

I bet he wants to stay put and get another Superbowl.

I heard he had 4 hungry children. Surely one can coach d

I question why we have never approached Dale Jones.

Yep. Thats another name that should be considered.

This, along with many other former Vol assistants, is not always the smart choice. Put your emotions aside. Rogers has been in the NFL a long time and is nearing retirement eligibility for a great pension. He would be a fool to give that up to go to UT.

Cause he is very happy at App State. His wife family are the Haslams of App State. He isnt going anywhere

Lol

So we still don't have a DC? But this is Tennessee one of the best programs in America. All we have to do is offer the money and they will come. Hopefully this is a little humble pie for those of you who need it.

Not saying it isn't worth the call. But if I'm an established NFL coach, I'm staying in the NFL. Why deal with 16-23 year old kids, travel, recruit etc. when you are in the league and no reason to leave after winning the SB.
