Tosh Lupoi

[rickyyrs]

If the Cleveland Browns fire their head coach Kitchens. It probaly will happen. I think Pruitt should go after one of his coaches, Tosh Lupoi. He worked with Pruitt at Alabama, and was one of Bama's top recruiters.

That's the rumor, because he isn't an elite recruiter. Imo there has to be some balance. Be has done a great job with that unit this year. Hate to loae a good coach. Not every coach can be a Pruitt or Nieds.

The grass is not always greener somewhere else. Sherrer has been a really good coach so far for the Vols.

Would like to see this staff remain in place. It's speculated on tos that more than one will be leaving though.

I work at a HS and Sherrer came by last season to visit a recruit. I met him and thought, “wow this dude has the most boring personality. I can’t imagine a kid would like him.” That student ended up at Georgia Tech.

Ok just wondering why... So its his recruiting, not an inability to coach

Me too on keeping staff in place. I don't think we will lose many as they are all getting paid top dollar as assistants.

He wasn’t just One of Bama’s top recruiters, he’s the best recruiter in the country. If you have a chance to add him to the staff, then you do whatever you need to do to get him here.

Sooooooooooooo, Freddie isn't going to be fired after one year.

But, if the Patriots fire Belichick, I think we should add him to the staff.

Him leaving 'Bama for the Browns is the exact reason Henry T. chose the Vols. Doubt we have room for another DC type coach of his calibre.

 

[99Vol]

You beat me to it, Tosh is a possibility if staff is looking at a change.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Yeah... Unfortunately you best believe every staff in the country wants to hire that guy. Hopefully he and Pruitt were besties at Bama.

 

[SGMVols]

I imagine we would have a lot of competition for him if he did become available.

 

[KBVol]

bye sherrer and rocker

Not Rocker, he’s done a great job developing his guys. Not all coaches are great position coaches and great recruiters. Definitely keep Rocker and help get him some dudes in recruiting imo.

Exactly. Keep all our coaches on board. For the first time in years we are beginning to look like a team that will be able to compete and be a top tier team because of athlete development. Time to give these coaches their due praise for the job they have done. We'd be crazy to start this now. These kids need stability and we know they can develop talent. What they have did with these kids in a short amount of time has been awesome.

 

[rgcvols98]

Tosh will go back to Bama. Saban sent him to the NFL for more experience

 

[VolnJC]

Hasn't Tosh been caught with recruiting violations before?

That usually means you're doing something right nowadays

You won't find any Bama fans who would have an issue with UT making that hire.

Wasn't Sherrer the lead recruiter for Jay Hardy? Lefty's comment above might explain the reason we lost Jay Hardy to Allbarn. Coaches today have to do both, coach AND recruit so I'd trade Rocker for Topoi anyday.

Why would we fire Rocker?? His group has outperformed its talent level, he wasn’t Hardy’s primary recruiter, and Tosh has coached LBs previously. Sherrer or Rumph should be the one to hit the road. If it’s Rumph they can offer Tosh the Co-DC position.

 

[VolnJC]

I'd never advocate firing what seems to be a good coach in Rocker for even a great recruiter..because the best recruiting is
1) winning games
2) getting guys ready for the NFL
