I’m not sure we’ll get a top DC from a top 10 program. What incentives would they have to sign up for the same position at UT? I think we’ll have to find an up and comer who is killing it at a lower tier school, or a former HC who is a defensive guy. Maybe a top defensive position coach at a top school who wants to be a dc would work. You also need someone who is willing to work with a high tempo offense that makes it more challenging to have a low scoring defense.

$$$$

What $$$$ does TN have that OSU doesn't?

I'd rather get Indiana's DC Bryant Haines. He's proven he can coach and develop players that arent 5* out the gate.

Guy has moved multiple times with Cignetti and appears to be very loyal to him. Doubt he leaves until its for a head coaching position. But I agree it would be an amazing option.

Doesn't matter what they have, it comes down to what are they willing to pay to retain him? Throw the $$$ at him and see what happens. Maybe they won't match.

Well, sure, anything could happen but I can't see a single card TN could deal financially that OSU can't counter, and even less reason why they wouldn't do so.
At highest levels, I think it likely these guys are looking for $$$$ AND something else that attracts to the program.

DC who couldn't stop IU.....no thanks.
Ask Detroit Lion fans about the bearded pencil.

Matt Patricia.

We already emptied the Banks.

I don't understand the hype with him. He was here for 2 seasons, and the defense wasn't exactly anything to write home about back then.

Well he was the reason we wound up with Sunseri and a scheme change that even an mega offense couldn’t save lol.

Had he stayed, most of that defense are upperclassmen and Dools likely wins 10+ games.

Yeah, you got it wrong. And there's nothing to indicate salary $ are an impediment to DW, so why even go there?

TN is a stabilizing and rebuilding program after nearly two decades of being irrelevant. Top 5-10 coordinators want to work for Top 5-10 head coaches in Top 5-10 programs.
That simply isn't TN in this moment, but it might be. In the meantime, TN is what it is.

Would you think it’s possible for there to be a good sized pool of candidates that could succeed at top 1-15 programs, yet only those 1-15 programs exist? Meaning you could land a great hire capable of those metrics and not yet be 1-15?

Not entirely crazy to think there are 20 capable coaches but only 10 of those jobs? Right?

His players were always in position to make the play. He just did not have the talent here.

Sometimes there were 12 or 13 of them in position.

I'd rather dream the big dream and then have my heart broken when reality hits.

Jerod Mayo

How is he an upgrade over Banks?

 

[LittleVol]

I don't understand the hype with him. He was here for 2 seasons, and the defense wasn't exactly anything to write home about back then.

But he licked his lips when he was excited.

He had a hunger!

You realize they only scored 13 points against OSU right?

PPG that would be 6th in America.

Some of you people....smh
