Mishandling of Coaches announcement

Whatever the reasons are that they haven't announced the Assistants it has hurt Tn in the long run. We have had Transfers that could have possibly been convinced to stay, recruits that could have possibly been signed. I know that the CIA top secret plan is running far.to long and just hurting TN.

The plan has been to address this via the great dodgeball video that clearly demonstrates Vols football is now one happy family. Fans seemed to like it based on what I have been reading on volnation. Fingers crossed it will work miracles with recruits as well! :cool:

You think behind the scenes they are not leveling with players and recruits...Danny White keeps a secret society

the coaches that are on board have been recruiting both 2021, 2022 and transfer players. An official announcement from Tennessee on the coaches already here would bring no additional benefit. They are just waiting on the entire staff to be in place to make "official announcement".
Exactly. No difference.
Just posters on here have been butt hurt because they think they are entitled and should know when CJH takes a dump before his a$$ touches the toilet seat

You don’t think those that need to know have another route than an official announcement?

Oh yeah. Because not naming the staff really is what is making Tennessee Football look bad. Not the mess Fulmer and Pruitt made....it’s Heupel/White’s faults. Got it.

Meanwhile the last coaching circus was a national circus of humiliation...I’m glad they’re keeping they’re mouths shut. Heupel needs to hire the perfect fit. The offensive staff was a no brainer. If it ain’t broke don’t break it. The defensive staff must be solid...we will know when we need to know. The players/transfers/recruits will know before any of us.

So these kids are just getting cold called by some random dude they’ve never heard of, saying he is a new coach at Tennessee. Hahaha, brilliant strategy.

Because they would have read the press release of there had been one? Surely you’re not that dense.

They’ve heard of Heupel. He’s talked to every one of the guys the assistants have been calling. They know who’s calling from Tennessee.

I think how they are doing it is just fine. We are used to the other way so it makes most of us uncomfortable

I doubt that it has any impact on any recruits or current players in the portal. It is a little odd how secretive Danny likes to be. I guess I get it with the head coaching search. We’ve looked bad in the past as other coaches just use us for leverage with their current employers. But with assistant coaches I don’t get the need to be secretive.

I agree that it hasn't helped UT to delay the staff announcements. I think timely announcements would have helped, if only by generating a buzz, but I wouldn't know how to gauge how much.

I also think it's just a strange look, that UT appears to be playing "hide the ball" for a bit with the announcements. I see no value in it.

I hope there is a spring game where we get a preview. Our past offense didn’t look crisp against air, I’m betting this one does

In a perfect world, it would have already been announced, but given his time on the job, it is way more important that he gets the hire right than it is that he gets it announced. Tomorrow is plenty soon enough. Yes, I would bet a few select recruits may already have a good idea of who it will be, if that information was necessary.

I think White is playing hardball with the local sports media. You know they are aware from recruits whip has been contacting them, and it’s known that white will make the staff announcement.
I think he’s making sure everyone’s in line so we don’t have this thing spun like the media has done in the past

Just because they haven't announced the coaches in what you have set in your timeline doesn't mean anything. They work at their own pace and when it's all said and done we will have a full coaching staff. Their timeline > Your timeline.
