UPDATED Tim Banks a potential candidate for Miami and Clemson DC

[PTSDVOL]

Banks listed as an option and sources tell Nakos he would "listen"

 

[TNHopeful505]

Just stop.

 

[PTSDVOL]

Just stop.

Stop what? Some want that and it is a story....I'm not advocating for him to leave.


But he is listed on the hotboard for UM DC.

 

[volmandu]

Banks is a good DC and I hope he gets the Head Coaching Job he deserves. I would be sad if he left us for DC job.

Mario would be a coach you’d have to listen to if he offers you a coordinator job.

 

[Rocky Top T]

Hope he takes it if offered

 

[UT97Vol]

How many more guys would that send to the portal?

 

[guesscrazy]

He is know vs unknown. Sorta have mixed feeling on this.

 

[PTSDVOL]

How many more guys would that send to the portal?

Portal is closed until right about the end of spring practice. Players would have the opportunity to get to know the new DC and decide.

 

[Legion of Doom]

He is not leaving. Vols DC job a much better job than Miami DC job.

 

[Kiffinhomer]

The next DC is on staff in Will Ingle. Go out and get Ryan Grubb and we’re good to go.

He is not leaving. Vols DC job a much better job than Miami DC job.

“Kiffins not taking the USC job. No one in their right mind would coach a team under sanctions “

I’m not calling you out…you weren’t the one that posted that. But trying to predict what folks are going to do with millions on the table is ludicrous.

 

[DiderotsGhost]

Likely rumor leaked by agent to get him a raise. He's not making a lateral (or even downward) move to be DC at Miami.

I’m hoping they at least talk to Inge before offering a stranger named William Ingle.

 

[DaddyChad]

Banks will eventually leave. I would think it will be for a head coaching job though.

Inge will likely be your next DC. Seems like most the players love the guy.

Would be really concerning if he did a lateral move.

Explain....

 

[sonofUT62]

If the money were the same and I had a decent head coach (Miami does), I would live in Coconut Grove or Coral Gables over Knoxville….tomorrow. Maybe Banks wouldn’t see it as a step down??

 

[DaddyChad]

Explain....

Hurricanes suck, Vols awesome. What more is there to explain?

 

[volbound1700]

Why would he go to Miami, that is a downgrade? SEC program to ACC Program.

I though our TV Contract was 2x the rate of ACC. Can't we out pay Miami?

Something is wrong with our program if we are losing players and coaches to ACC/Big12 programs.

Damn, that's it, what was I thinking?..

Good weather, decent coach, lots of talent on the roster, tons of high school talent nearby, easier schedule, etc. Not really a downgrade.

It is in the ACC and they haven't even won the ACC. We should be able to out pay them. Clemson and FSU wanted to quit the ACC because they said it couldn't compete anymore.

If we lose coaches to an ACC program on lateral move, that is a bad look.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

He's gonna ride it out here until he can get a HC job somewhere.

 

[Casual Mustard Yeeter]

After all the man has done here, this toxic fan base is still calling for his head.

I'd leave too, if I were him.
