Top 10 D line coaches.

[BigOrangeTrain]

I have zero problems if Pruitt wants to hire the chief to coach the DL. I am big on Lupoi but there is no way he comes here for anything less than DC. And how would that work with Ansley?

Imo the only two options that make sense are: go with a guy that has SEC experience or poach someone from the NFL.

I heard a whisper in the wind. It just said

"Soon."

 

[MiramarVol]

I don't know about finding a top 10 DC four games into a season. Hell probably wait until after the season to fill it, and roll with what they have.

Anyone watching airplanes lately?

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

You'll find out this off season. Pruitt has the duty until then.

If the D line implodes, will Pruitt fire himself?

Give him a co-DC title and a million a year salary.

Need to steal Auburns or UGAs dline coach. But probably won't happen, program refuses to go after the best.

We don't have near the talent of GA's D line. Their coach may be good, or may be mediocre with excellent talent. I'd rather go after an overachiever.

Georgia’s DL was run over by Harris this last week.

Someone who is great in practice.

We see what you did

Okay and what have they done against every other team though?

Gotta have both. Look at our talented oline struggling for example

Easy to coach elite talent. Not sure how good he would be with our players.

Rodney Garner ain’t going anywhere.

 

[butchna]

I thought Pruitt said in his presser he was coaching the DL rest of the year? .........feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I may have misheard.

He is. This is for next season.

Pay them and they will come.

Never know until you try

 

[Roustabout]

Why would we believe a top 10 position coach would come here?

You can make 800k for coaching four games.
Are ****ing serious??

 

[901 Orange]

Someone with some D line knowledge, what would Pruitt be looking for and who would be the top 10 coaches that could be possible candidates. Since we will be looking for one.

I think Pruitt is gonna do it

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Then we can hire anyone on the cheap.

Sounds good to me. I wonder if Pruitt is waiting to see what happens with him at the end of the season? Arent he and Lupoi buddies?

They coached together for a couple of seasons at Bama. I don’t know how deep of a relationship that they have though. If he wants to make a move back to college, UT makes as much sense as anyone. Don’t see a lot of programs lining up to offer him a DC role. His one year as DC in Tuscaloosa wasn’t all that impressive.

 

[Boston Vol]

Garner isn’t leaving his Alma mater. Even if there’s a coaching change, which I seriously doubt that there will be, he’s pretty much guaranteed to remain on staff.
