We should have taken him in some capacity. Imagine he could recruit Texas well.

Too bad we didn’t have an opening. Having a hall of fame tight end as your tight ends coach is about as good as it gets. Hopefully he would jump back to East Tn if the opportunity arose…

Time to hire Uncle Shawn.

Legacies mean virtually nothing in college football today. Just ask Arch Manning

#VFL.....


h-o-w-e-v-e-r, that verbal stint on MNF was extremely painful. Wish JW the best in beating teams not named VOLS!

Hope he can pull another rabbit out of his head

 

[Rickyvol77]

He will always be a VFL

Seems every time we hire a former vol, things don’t work out well. Chuck Smith is an example. Bad example but one nonetheless.

Right! And the Titans rarely can draft or sign a decent pro Vol.

It is what it is

Right. Great legends don’t usually make great coaches. ie. Neon Dion , Michael Jordan.

Let's not kid ourselves. Oklahoma is making this hire to get his son. I think it's going to work.

Don’t we have Fulmer’s grandson coming on board?

 

[UTFanForLife]

If I’m a Vol great and looking to coach, I’m not even entertaining a Vols coaching position. First bad year and your legacy is tarnished forever.

Yep

Titans just suck cause of Amy Adam’s skunk. Another owner would draft more vols

We did hire Wade Houston, to errrr, mostly coach his son Alan.


That was fun!!

Cool thanks

Alan Houston was as smooth a shooter as I ever saw, college or pro.
His Dad was a pitiful coach.

Yup, the smooth shot was enough to overlook the weak coaching
