Lane Kiffin, star-laden Tennessee Vols staff face rebuilding task - Stewart Mandel - SI.com

It's nice to read a positive article for a change.

 

[dickens821]

Mandel has thought our staff was one of the best in the country (if not the best) since they were all hired.

 

[vol_in_ar]

except for Reaves, were solid

 

[dickens821]

People downing Reaves need to wait until the end of the season before judging him. He's young, a good recruiter, and could be a solid QB coach.

 

[vol_in_ar]

He's lucky he's lane's brother in law, because he'll get more than a year

remind who he's recruited for a QB

Coaches don't recruit by position. They recruit by region.

 

[vol_in_ar]

I think the position coach would be a major decison for the recruit
whether he's the primary recruiter or not

 

[kevol80]

Yea, I'll be the first to admit I bagged on Reaves for a while, but after doing some reading on his background and reputation among some other impressive coaches, I have high hopes for him. :crossfingers:

We'll be fine at QB in the future. Don't be such a negative nancy.

 

[vol_in_ar]

I'm cautiously optimistic
staff looks great on paper, I just want 'em to win games

Is he related to Spurrier too?

My understanding is that he has stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

I hope so because I think that will dictate Lane's early career here. Hard to win without a good/great QB.

found it interesting he didn't mention BB in that article.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Practice?

 

[kevol80]

I noticed that too. I think it was just a slip-up rather than some inside info he has.

DISAGREE-----Name the "top QB" at Auburn the last 10 years. Campbell? You can win with great D, running game , and adequate qb play. That said, UT will get a top QB. While Auburn was not the top program, they handled UT and were always a tough out---ask LSU and bammer and GA.

I want us to be better than Auburn

Do you think Campbell was better than Ainge or Clausen? Campbell was/is a starting NFL QB and he was the QB during Auburn's best season of the last 10 years. (for the record, I don't think he shoudl be a starting NFL QB) If we got a Campbell-like QB, I would take it.

Jason Campbell flat out balled after Al Borges arrived at AU. He was a above average college quarterback in my opinion. He had a wonderful senior year.

richardson is running a wildcat formation?
