Kevin Sherrer, ILB and ST coach, to NY Giants

[sonofUT62]

Good. I’m not that upset.

Old friend that JP gave a good opportunity. When it turned out we could do better a landing spot was found for him. Wouldn’t be surprised if Pruitt already has someone in mind.

Tosh lopie should be the first person called but he just took another position in the nfl! All though money talks and he is one of the best recruiters in the country

Hard to outbid Home Depot.

It's a rather small community ya'll. The calls have already been made to CJP. I would guess he already knows who the replacement is.,

 

[wmcovol]

He better have doubled his $ cause living around NY is expensive

It would be awesome for Dale Jones to return to Tennessee

 

[CR-vol]

Bring back Rodney Garner

Really? After that troll job he pulled?

 

[VolInDayton]

We never get in a hurry to replace position coaches. It will probably be March before we make a hire.

Wondered who would be the first to drop Dale into the conversation. Surprised it took this long.

Just got a promotion at App State. Doesn’t mean he won’t take a job at UT....but if he loves Boone as much as I do......

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I don't doubt he'll add good coaching, but adding ace recruiters is just as important at this point.

Not really. Do you think Dabo and Saban’s staff are full of elite recruiters?

Don't see a real problem with waiting a bit. See who leaves and what kind of money you have to spend on replacement. This recruiting class is all but done. No need to rush things. Just load up with recruiters.

Good luck to Sherrer with the Giants.

 

[butchna]

He’s not going to be the hire. He makes as much as money as we would pay and one or both of his kids is on staff at Bama. But he’s a great position coach and a really good recruiter. One season working for Doofus in a job he wasn’t qualified for doesn’t change that.

Guess you feel you’re right. Hope that’s enough.

 

[CAVPUT]

Top notch recruiters first and coaching a close second

Lot of guys out there that can do both, but if they can't/won't recruit, I'd pass.

Its worked out for us so far. I didn't mean to make it sound like it was a bad thing, I'm just not patient.

Of course it’s not enough. But I’m pretty sure there’s a middle ground between me being completely right and “ **** no”.

 

[beachmaster]

Don't think it happens, but Chief is out of work.

Nope! Hopeless stalemate.

Doesn’t recruit and not sure he’s ever coached a down of the type of D we play. Otherwise would be great.

 

[Smokeyone]

So who does the Pruitt Fulmer team bring in to coach the wealth of talent we have at ILB and manage special teams? A coach first and a recruiter second.

 

[RockyTop140]

Did I say we should hire him back as DC? The position I said we should give him is the current one that NICK SABAN has him filling. But I guess you blow better.

I agree with you, he would be a pretty damn good hire if we could get him. People act like just because you’re a bad DC you can’t be a good position coach

 

[bigorange2009]

What bout Tosh Lupoi? Would he even be feasible?
