Jim Chaney Press Conference (8/27)

Copied this into a new thread so it won't be buried. A little coachspeak, but some interesting stuff as well.

I know there’s a lot of jokes about his weight but he’s a genuinely good OC. He just needs a consistent QB.

Pruitt made the right choice with this hire.

He actually looks like he may have lost a little.

Seems like JG will start based on ball security.... hope he improves

Nice interview, Coach sounds pretty confident in this group. If we can somehow just get SEC top 7 or so in scoring we would likely win a bunch of football games. Timing of injuries for each team is gonna impact how the season goes as it may turn out to be survival of the fittest, good for us as Chaney just mentioned several good playmakers and he sounded confident that the offensive unit would indeed improve in year 2.

Thanks for the post.

Good interview. He impresses me as the kind of guy that could be (or could have been) a head coach. Maybe he's never wanted to be but he's very well spoken and intelligent.

I think he knows his limitations... and how much politics he wants to put up with.

That what I was thinking

 

[Boogievol]

I didn't expect to listen to all of it but I was actually enjoying the information since we are getting so little of it right now.

He actually would be good candidate for that gastric bypass surgery. He's very large and he may just be past the point of simple diet and exercise. He needs to drop a lot of weight.

Was thinking the same!

 

[salsahound]

As the defensive ends fight to get around the tackles, when they do move up into the darn pocket like you're supposed too. It's worth an extra second or two.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

Really like that we got Chaney. He’s a great football coach. So pumped we might get a little football this season

I have fixed a broken water line in my yard today. I have mowed. I have weed eaten/ate. 7 acres. I have been the learning coach for my son because we are doing virtual learning because of the ‘rona. I have drank a gallon of Coors Light. I love Jim Chaney. Go Vols.

What made you think he would not start?

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

What made you think he would not start?

His inept play the last three years Rip Van Winkle.

 

[Eastknox865]

Coach got excited talking about the young WR'S

We will see a totally different qb in JG this year in my opinion

Jim tells you like it is, doesn't matter if you like it or not...Very Transparent in his approach to coaching.

Yes. Should use same surgeon that weatherman Al Roker used. He looks great now.

Ummm... was this supposed to have blue font .

Not a chance, he pats the ball 5 times before waiting to long and missing wide open receivers.

Best indicator of future behavior is past behavior. The cat's been here for over 4 years now and nothing has changed. He is what he is.
