John Chavis' season ended last week

What was Chavis' middle school record? Did he develop any freshman talent on the defensive side of the ball? I think we as VN would have to see that information before we push for this hire.
The real question is, who is the middle school QB coach? Now that really could be an upgrade.
GBO!!

As a DL coach?.......I would be good with this. He has passion for UT, he knows the stakes, he knows the SEC..........tons of experience coaching at this level......I give it the doug stamp of approval
Good point. DL only? But do we throw more money at another DC?

I can see it now. Brings back Chief. Fulmer fires Pruitt mid season, and takes the reigns a la Barry Alvarez style. Promotes Chief to DC. Getting the gang all back together! Feels like 98
Ok-this wins the internet today.

I think you are expecting him to "run the defense" I don't think that's what I would be replacing. As I read it they have let the d-line coach go. That is what I expect Chief would be replacing. Teaching guys how to play the line position is a long way from being "out of touch" with the game. You play the position as to technique the same to day as you did years ago..

I'm ok with Chavis as dl coach, but that is not our main problem. I don't care how good of a dl coach you have its not going to help the offense. And the number one problem on offense is the qb. That is what needs to be taken care of and like right now. Our dl played good enough to win Sat. as well as the whole defensive team, ky scored actually 17 offensive points. The rest were the result of offensive turnovers. Hold a team to 17 points you should easily win the game.

I don't see them reading the D Line coach this year.. Too much money is being thrown around at Tennessee.. The 2 yr contract extension got me, then they want you to donate the season ticket cost to the athletic dept.... Brumbaugh was the scapegoat...

Could the Chief John Chavis be possibly be brought back? I would think this is a logical choice. Phil Fulmer could push for this to happen. Right now, Chavis is coaching middle school, and their season just ended, so he is available!
