Offensive Coordinator candidates

[Memphisvol87]

Not worried about scheme or play calling. I would like an elite recruiter

 

[VOLINVONORE]

It has to be a Heupel system trained coach. If not Heupel, calls all the player he he hires a specialist for the offense.

 

[VolInDayton]

Move Mack over to coach TE
Hire Dell McGee as OC/RB

Get an elite recruiter that could maybe bring a new dimension to Heupels offense. Heupel is the play caller so its not really a risk. Not a bad idea.

Don't forget Scott Frost Tennessee would be a good place for him to rehabilitate his name

 

[temptn]

Has the obvious candidate been mentioned? Kiffin?

Corey Dennis. But we would lose Hazle.

 

[GuntherVol]

Chaney imo

Only if it’s Liz

Same for Geoff Collins.

 

[Jeff Clark]

Same for Geoff Collins.

Geoff is a strong DC

Kevin Decker

Fordham:
5000 passing yards
2340 rushing yards
58 passing TD’s
21 rushing TD’s

Over 7k yards & almost 80td’s (totally different level, but their talent is same level as who they play)

Also has experience as a TE coach

With Heupel’s system

Seems like a good coach to bring on staff in some capacity. Not sure he'd be ready for our OC role yet. He'd get at least a $100,000 pay raise just to be a position coach here.

 

[OrangeInKy]

Only if it’s Liz

Haha

 

[Tigervol]

The good news, we aren’t freaking out that our OC is leaving because Heup is the brains behind the machine!

 

[headhunter15]

It’ll be Hazle. I know it’s Heupel’s system, but I’d be interested if Hazle or someone else if hired would have some different looks in the run game.

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Personally think Elarbee over Halzle if Heupel goes with an internal option.

Elarbee has called plays before as an OC. Halzle has not.

 

[tnvolfan16]

I would at least see if Brian Hartline would take a call about it

 

[sonofUT62]

Geoff is a strong DC

Beast recruiter too.

 

[Smokymtnbullet]

Hal Mumme or Jerry Glanville.

Glanville lives in Knoxville

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Randy Sanders with Eric Locke as the WR/TE coach. The 2 yard wide receiver screen needs to make a comeback in Knoxville. Locke also has terrific recruiting experience.

 

[sonofUT62]

Im sure he would. But he would want to coach the WRs too.So that’s a problem.

The only way we could run a 2 yard screen is if Milton tossed it underhanded.

I am worried Milton will announce he is going pro soon after the bowl announcement.

 

[butchna]

Halzel as OC and if Dobbs is interested bring him back as QB coach.

Numbers don’t work. You have ONE open position with our OC/TE’s coach departing. If Halzle only serves as OC and someone else is hired to coach QB’s, WHO coaches TE’s?

Wait. WHUT?

I think he’s going to buy a set of golf clubs and join the long drive tour.
