Locking in my bet for Ryan Walters.

He and Hype coached together at Missouri.

Walters is actually a really good DC schematically.

 

[knoxvol52]

Now this is a list….

Watching Al Golden wearing a Orange Tie on sidelines would be worth it...

 

[SoilVol]

Reach out to Pry before Franklin hires him.

I think the paper has been inked

 

[Enki_Amenra]

It's a HARD NO.

TWSS

Remember that plane that was flying between Knoxville and State College?

Are you an Air Traffic Controller as well?

 

[IASIPNeyland]

What Josh Heupel Said About Decision to Fire Tennessee Defensive Coordinator Tim Banks | Rocky Top Insider

What Tennessee football head coach Josh Heupel said about why he fired defensive coordinator Tim Banks on Monday.

www.rockytopinsider.com

“I want to thank Tim for everything he has done for Tennessee the last five seasons,” Heupel said. “He helped restore our program to national prominence. More importantly, Tim is a great man of character and someone I have the utmost respect for. We wish Tim all the best moving forward."


“These are tough decisions but one I ultimately felt was necessary for the future of our program. We are fully committed to identifying our next defensive coordinator who will uphold the standard that Tennessee has historically been known for.”

Do we have a new DC in place before portal season? Seems like these guys will want to know who is leading them before they make the call to transfer here. If one is not hired, seems like we may be in for some good offensive guys, but we need the most help on D.

I would hope so. I would expect initial reaction from some of our D players to hit the portal.
Easier to convince them to stay if they know who they will be playing for.
Or to get guys from the portal if they know who the DC will be.

Candidate: "Super soft zone coverage a minimum of 5 yards past the sticks."

Heupel:

Candidate: "Show blitz, then have my LBs sprint 15 yards downfield."

Heupel:

 

[DD4ME]

I only mentioned him because Heupel seems to love familiarity and he coached with Shannon at UCF.

We could hire literally the best of the best as DC: Saban, Belichick, Dick LeBeau or Buddy freaking Ryan, NONE of it matters if we have a bunch of Telanders running around out there. Respectfully.

It works for Indiana

Are you an Air Traffic Controller as well?

 

[MemphisVol3]

Very first question of interview...

Heupel: "How will your defense get off the field on 3rd down?"

"What is your zone coverage scheme?" definitely needs to be a question lol

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Alex Grinch was great for a little whal, what happened to him?

 

[Mullins2010]

Will West and Ivens saying Inge is best candidate lol

If AtoZ put out a list, you can bet none of their candidates are on Heupel’s list

Several of their candidates overlap on other lists so may actually be something there.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

 

[SugarCC]

He already has

I had not seen where he had been hired yet.

Reach out anyway. If he takes the call, door is open. Highly unlikely, though.

Im not worrying about stepping on toes or hurting anyone's feelings.
