Larry Porter- Running Backs Coach Candidate

[alaVOL]

What's your point? Id hire zook in a second as a position coach. We're not talking about hiring porter or zook as a head coach.

Bring him back....he coached DB's at UT before.

 

[SamQB7]

OCI Just said in another thread that Porter HAS been contacted and there IS mutual interest!

 

[Govols16]

porter would be great here

Larry Porter would be a phenomenal higher for this staff.
-Running Back Coach (Check)
-Recruiting Coordinator (Check)
-Ties in Memphis Area and various other hot recruiting locations (Check)

All CDD needs to do is pick up the phone and tell Porter to pack up and move 5 hours East on I-40.

Would be awesome.

I can't see Porter wanting to coach RB's in Meyer's offense.

maybe not but he's in Columbus speaking with Meyer. Meyer tried twice to get him from LSU....he interviewed once but stayed and got a nice raise after the interview.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

Saw an earlier rumor thread that he has an offer to return to LSU if he desires.

 

[SpringBokVol]

UT was the first to offer FWIW

Also, LSU is only open if Gonzo goes to OSU.

Meyer can probably get Porter if he wants him. That is going to be a sick staff.

 

[BAJAvol]

meyer is not even in the SEC and he's still finding ways to beat Tennessee

myles is going after him too. porter could very well end being one of the highest paid assistants in the country soon.

Why would Gonzales go back to Meyer? His departure from Florida was less than cordial. Unless you believe he'll let BG be the offensive coordinator.

 

[BleedingOrangeFan]

Not a good HC but a hell of a recruiter. Think Trooper the clown Taylor.

we could use him (Trooper Taylor)

 

[HialeahGator]

Billy G is ing to be the new HC at Col State.

 

[Escape Goat]

No one gives a damn bout OSU here homey.

Sure thing "buddy".

 

[Volgrad98]

Is Larry Porter expected to announce anytime soon whether he has accepted the RB coaching position?

SpringBokVol stated yesterday that the desire of the program was to announce all changes, hirings and departures, at one time. He said "probably today or tomorrow." Since tomorrow is today, maybe sometime today.

Cool, thanks HS.

 

[volzfan1998]

I heard that Porter is not coming to UT possibly Jay Graham.

 

[bobcat012]

Top notch RB coach.....?

Yeah, my sentiments exactly!

 

[Volgrad98]

I heard that Porter is not coming to UT possibly Jay Graham.

Where did you here that?

 

[HSVol]

Tennessee: Sources close to the situation tell us that Larry Porter will not be joining the Vols staff.

I didn't expect him to come to UT honestly without a OC title or something more then Runningbacks coach. But this is unfortunate to say the least.
