Osovet Getting Promoted

Almost everyone gets some kind of promotion. We make up titles and ways to smooth egos, but in the end, not everyone is the head coach.

Details on Osovet's promotion.

“Pruitt holds Osovet in high regard as the only other coach with college head coaching experience and as a recruiter,” Vols Wire was told by someone close to the situation. “Joe was offered positions on other staffs this offseason. Pruitt really wanted to keep him on staff and elevating him to the top off-field spot was a good step.”

What are the limitations of an "off field" position? Is it just that he cannot be on the field during the games?

Why? I honestly have no idea what he’s done or brought to the program. I don’t mean that in a negative way, but why are you so convinced he is that valuable?

He purportedly is the "inventor" of the RPO. He was running it 20 years ago. His JUCO teams pretty much ran the O that Pruitt wants. He was my vote for OC in the beginning if we were going to promote from the staff. I think he would have made a good one.

JMO

Edit: I should say what is considered the RPO. The actual run pass option has been around for a zillion years. IMO the Veer (Think Bobby Bowden and WVU) is a form of the RPO with 2 backs instead of one.

Coach obviously thinks he pretty valuable too. He was offered HC positions elsewhere, Pruitt did what he had to do to keep him. That's good enough for me!

Any older people pronounce your name the way I spelt, I mean spelled it? Say-re.

Pretty sure he was a big part in landing Dominic Bailey....Say getting that commitment didn't hurt his lil promotion either.Well deserved either way.

Im up at 5 every morning and this us about normal time for me to post my first inspirational thoughts of the day.

I spent all of 4-6 minutes trying to figure out what Creep Chills meant. Some millennialism?

I had hopes of sleeping in with all this rain we've been getting. Hubs decides, in the middle of a monsoon, he's going to a fishing tournament, 4am....only to come back an hour later. By that time, the dog needs to potty outside. So much for sleeping in. Is 7am too much to ask? Asking for a friend.
