It is official and with a link:

A third stint for Brown at Tennessee - SEC Blog - ESPN

Kippy Brown is coming back to Tennessee ... for a third time.

A former assistant at Tennessee under John Majors and Phillip Fulmer, Brown has agreed in principle to join Lane Kiffin's staff and will coach receivers. Kiffin and Brown met Tuesday night in Knoxville.

Brown didn't coach anywhere this season, but was with the Detroit Lions as assistant head coach and passing game coordinator in 2008. He coached for 16 seasons in the NFL. Before that, he worked at Tennessee under Fulmer in 1993-94 and under Majors from 1983-89.

Fulmer tried to hire Brown as his offensive coordinator when David Cutcliffe left for Duke following the 2007 season, but Brown stayed with the Lions after receiving a promotion.

here is a list of wide receivers that signed with Tennessee during Kippy's first two stints at UT. I'm not saying he was most responsible for them but he certainly had a hand in it.

Troy Hale
Vince Carter
Eric Swanson
Terrence Cleveland
Kennard McQuire
Thomas Woods
Alvin Harper
Anthony Miller
Vincent Moore
Anthony Morgan
Carl Pickens
Harlan Davis
Cory Fleming
Courtney Epps
John Pollard
Benji Shuler
Andy McCullough
Marcus Nash
Maurice Staley

I know we just hired Kippy Brown as our new coach, but he has been in the NFL for a while.

Many posters on VN including me would definitely like to know this.

Can Kippy recruit? Can he coach at Kiffin's level? Is he a good coach period? Post some comments i would really like to know considering the fact that hes our coach. :)

GO KIPPY!!!:3083yourock:
