Of course this is just speculation but I hope its true

HC-Lane Kiffin
OC/QBs-David Reaves
WR-?
RB-?
OL-Tim Davis
TE-Hugh Freeze

DC/DL/ - Ed Orgeron
LB/RC/Ass. DC-Ken Norton Jr.
DB-Joe Whitt, Jr.

Seen Steele mentioned as well but I don't see him sharing the DC duties with Orgeron...but who knows

Any idea who WR and RB coaches would be? I don't think anybody currently is kept

yeah i saw the kiffin thread...i think it's him...this one is about the staff which i think is just as important as the hc itself

but his staff has been brought up numerous times and is now in that thread, where it belongs.

Great coaches surround themselves with great staff members.....that is where Phil went downhill....his loyalty did him in eventually..that and the fact he couldn't find an OC outside of cutcliffe

Sc fans love the guy.....outstanding recruiter.....doesn't really get to do much under spurrier...he is listed as QB coach..... Kiffin will be calling the plays anyway

regardless of whether or not fans at SouCar love him, he's not an upgrade. True, Kiffin will be calling the plays but there is still no reason for Reaves to be here. No connection whatsoever and he hasn't exactly put a good product of QBs on the field.....

What has David Reaves done that would warrant him being hired at UT?

I've been wondering the same thing. Apparently he's the QB coach at South Carolina, and I dunno how long he's been there, but their QB play hasn't been what I'd call stellar.

If Reaves comes it is only because Kiffin is trying to help family. Reaves has done nothing at SC to warrant him a promotion.

over Reaves? absolutley. Clawson is not the sole reason our QB's stink. I'd rather give him one more year under a new HFC anyway. Reaves is a decent recruiter but we don't need to name the Off Coord solely on how he can recruit. If that were the case Trooper would've had the job last season.

and I don't worry about Reaves... why waste my time worrying about a position coach at another school...

So you're saying O would be DC and wouldn't have time for that position?

I hope they all have time for recruiting (unlike now). Pretty sure Coach O believes all coaches should be year-round recruiters and I bet LK buys that too.
