I would like Tennessee to take a look at this guy

Sarkisian's coaching career began in 2000, when he returned to El Camino Junior College as Quarterbacks Coach.

He then joined his former coach Norm Chow at USC (Chow was hired as USC's Offensvie Coordinator in 2001). Sarkisian first worked as an Offensive Assistant (2001), then as Quarterbacks Coach (2002 and 2003). He was partly responsible for the success enjoyed by Trojan QBs Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart (both developed into Heisman Trophy winners).

In 2004, Sarkisian served as Quarterbacks Coach for the Oakland Raiders of the National Football League (NFL).

He returned to USC for the 2005 season, now with the title of Assistant Head Coach (in addition to his duties as Quarterbacks Coach).

In January 2007, Sarkisian interviewed with the Oakland Raiders for their vacant Head Coach position but pulled himself out of the running and decided to stay at USC. Sarkisian was named to replace Lane Kiffin as USC's Offensive Coordinator when Kiffin took the head coaching job of the Oakland Raiders.

An intelligent, well thought-out, well articulated post.

I am honestly impressed.

Gotta change the "I" list.

Go Vols.

I posted this on another thread but if you want Sarkisian you might want to look at Nick Holt as DC. Holt was a HC at Idaho with a terrible record but Pete Carroll thought enough about him that he asked him to come back. Their defense is ranked number 1 in the country. Not to mention since their loss to Oregon state they have only allowed 26 points.

Thats great, but I think we should try to go after an Offensive mind.Since that(offense) is what we lack.

I'm not saying Holt as the HC. I would think if Sarkisian came he might be able to bring Holt with him. Of course, Sarkisian is not even in the picture so I guess this is pretty much a mute point.

Oh ok, I just said Monte Kiffin because most people are saying Monte would come if Lane became HC.
