I’m happy, extremely happy actually, with what’s been announced so far. He’s got guys in here that can recruit and develop players. I’m sure we are waiting until after bowl season and maybe even a couple of NFL firings that might happen before finalizing.

I guess we will see what happens. I can't wait to see how the staff plays out.

I still can't believe Schiano (aka Nick Saban, Jr according to the national media) hasn't been hired at a P5 school.

247sports shows Kevin Sherrer as Co-DC and Inside LB coach and Chris Rumph as C0-DC and Outside LB Coach so I guess Sherrer and Rumph will run the defense together as DC. Tracy Rocker shows as DL coach.

I'm an optimist. Maybe he has some coaches that haven't told everyone their leaving yet. Cough cough Tosh Lapoi, I expect a good WR coach and a good ILB coach hire in our future. Plus another offensive administrative job like Steve sarkisian. But not SS lol.

Who else do you guys think? I am excited about the alleged hires so far and think recruiting has been an emphasis.
Earlier I heard on some football game Dallas was playing that Jason Whitten was retiring after this season. Don't ask me when, there is so much babbling in the games now I couldn't tell you when or where.
Now if this is so, go get Jason if he has coaching in mind. No question he can do the job on the field and something tells me he would be just as good as a coach. Think his ability as a recruiter would go without saying...

Anyone think he's not filling the staff at this point because that would negate Fullmer's ability to recruit?

Can we please stop with the secret fulmer plot bs? There is no evidence beyond the first article that accuses PF of any underhandedness and that one might as well been written by currie and haslam themselves. Have you ever thought that maybe PF was asked by JP to help him? i mean he did kind of publicly say he would be consulting his boss.

WTF? I posted nothing, at all, about any secret Fulmer BS.

I think the Fulmer hire was a great idea. I was simply positing that, to Coach Pruitt, there may be a value in not formally filling the coaching staff so that Fulmer can continue to actively recruit.

I wish Utsports.com would update the assistant coaches list or at least, remove the old ones who are now gone and are coaching elsewhere.............

Yes, and remove Butch Jones from the billboard down by the river near Calhoun's. It was still there, seven times the size of Rhode Island, last weekend.

My apologies then, i have seen too many commenters suggesting that fulmer has his hands in everything and is trying to re-live his coaching days by controlling too much with the program now, i interpreted your comment to be suggesting that so there we are. Sorry again, I just dont see how they think Pruitt is that much of a pushover to allow it, or why they think fulmer is trying to be anything more than a legendary coach that went on to be a successful ad that helped bring his alma mater back to glory.

The new coaching staff is not likely to be officially named until after the February signing period. Besides the pro coaches still in season and the AFCA convention January 9th, there's still some flexibility in what position the coaches already hired are going to coach. Why would CJP show his hand until after the pro season is done and the coaching convention is over? There's no value in putting those bios up in December and January. None.

Agree that it was a great move, but I don't think it is delaying the naming of a coach. Believe the rest of his staff is waiting for their season to end before being announced.
