Manning will be an analyst before he'd be a coach

This. Manning will never coach, will be one of the most sought after color analysts. He will have his pick of networks. We don't know if he's a good coach, we do know he's good behind a camera.

Whatever Peyton does when he retires, he WILL NOT go straight from player to OC at any D1 school much less UT..

Agree, going from a player to coach he is not going to know how things work behind the scenes. Plus it would piss off all of the position coaches under him to get the coordinator position with zero experience. He does know his x's and o's.
I think he would go the route of John Elway (owning a sports team, restaurants, vp of a NFL team) then maybe, hopefully TN AD after counting his money got boring.

Analyst is beneath him. IMO

Manning making around 20 mill a yr - then come to UT to coach for much much less, when he hasn't ever coached in his football career. Very far out there daydream, IMO. :loco:

I have always loved the Mannings and think they are very talented and a class act! What ever he does I wish him the very best!

I don't understand why some people say he will never coach here. If he decides he wants to coach, I'm sure this would be his dream job assuming he doesn't want to start off in the bigs.

As of now? No. Give it a few (5-10) years.

I definitely saw an interview where Peyton said he can't coach from the sideline, but only from the field. Can't find the link though. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?

With that being said, I'd go for QB's coach, if he'd take the huge pay drop.

I would love to see manning come home and be successful QB coach and then move to OC as I think he would be a beast at it...

But I also want him to do what is best for himself and his family, and coaching in the SEC and for UT can be taxing. We have way to much scrutiny on our coaches and the first time some negavol started a fire manning thread I think I would have to get violent.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach/coach. When those who can are done they go into broadcasting or politics where they can talk about what they did.

I think Manning is a competitor and will get into coaching. But I think he will want to coach in the pros. JMO.

He will be a great coach, just like Wayne Gretzky!

Lets fire one of the nations best OCs and hire an unproven former QB with no real coaching experience!

How can we fire one of the nations best oc's? All we got here to fire is Chaney. I hope u weren't referring to him. If Peyton retired and wanted the job we should keep Chaney? That's crazy. Just for recruiting sake we'd make the change

Don't understand the logic. He has coaching experience---he's played football his entire life, and has witnessed many different styles of coaching. His knowledge of the game is 2nd to none---he knows his offense, he is the one calling the plays based on the packages defense present. He has actually proven success executing the plays he has called from his skillset. If anything---he is at a far greater advantage relative to a coach that has been out of the game for a while.

College football success is predicated on one thing-----recruiting. Alabama had the #1 recruiting classes in 2008 and 2009---they were national champions in 2011. Having a coach like Peyton Manning would be more of a draw than anyone in college football.

Those of you who are saying hiring Petyon as a coach would be a dumb move, have probably never stepped foot on a football field, much less played the game. The question is---would Peyton come to coach his alma mater if he retired from the game. From a pay standpoint it would be quite the downgrade.

But---the one wildcard we have---is we are the University of Tennessee. Peyton is one of the most involved alums from any program that I've seen from current NFL players. Peyton is always attending a UT game--at least once a year, and he's even stopped by basketball games. He's a VFL---and that's what you can't discount.

I think if Tennessee has issues going forward, Peyton will want to accept the challenge of rebuilding his beloved alma mater.

Chaney is a great OC. His inability to put up points with a freshman QB, and without our best WR does not change that. Ask Drew Brees what he thinks of Chaney. Chaney has been around for a long time, and he is truly one of the best OCs in the country.

OK...have some fun with this. I think it would be awesome! The only problem would be that if Peyton's offense was really really good he could be hired by another SEC school and that would be hard to swallow.

I would only hope one day he would be interested . He would be a great offensive cord. He would not go somewhere else if he goes to ut if any maybe ole miss because money is not the object . He has money and his family had money when he did not go to draft after sr. year.

Not a chance of that happening.

Got to be one of the best football minds in the country. Just not sure he wants to coach. Maybe TV makes him happier. Got the equipment to be a great coach.

Fact of the matter is not one person in here knows what Payton would want to do after being a qb, but to think that the man couldn't coach sounds stupid to me. He has been around coaches his whole life. I would imagine he has a pretty good idea of what it takes to be a coach at any level. Including HC, much less any type of assistant.:crazy:

GBO VFL:rock:

I want peyton to coach at UT, at least be involved in something, somehow, someway... but even though he's able to coach his offense on the field, was he able to coach them on the sideline neverless the QB in 2011-2012? Don't forget they went 2-14 this year ranking 28th in points, 30th in yards, 27th in pass yards, and 26th in rush yards. Now do you call that good coaching? Im pretty sure peyton had a lot to do with that sideline, ESPECIALLY with the QB's. I mean I do believe talent has a lot to do with it too, some players are just impossible to coach, like painter or collins. When they found Dan Orlovsky they actually started winning some games. I believe he's worth another 1st or 2nd round draft pick or a good trade :dance2:

By hiring coaches from Alabama, we're also stealing their recruits so i can care less about BAMA i don't understand why you're even comparing Tennessee to them in a couple we'll be the Champs of the SEC and Alabama will be licking the dirt off our cleats and they can cry all they want for us stealing their Linebacker coach :nono::boredom:

But like I said, if I havn't said it yet, Peyton will always be involved with UT weather it's coaching or something. He bleeds orange and he loves that school too much. Thats why he stayed there for all 4 years and actually got a degree. I love the guy. Wish I will always here about him and his involvement with the Vols. :rofl:
