Trust Danny White and Heupel

If he is a great recruiter we need to put him on staff- lets go.

I get the feeling we may move Garner to an off field role, defensive analyst and I think he would do quite well

Move Chop to DL coach.

Co- DL coaches without a pay decrease for garner. Why not. Especially now that you can have unlimited staff. Anyone who is a great recruiting needs to be brought in or retained.

I think you gotta make him an assistant DL coach. $250K per year, do it.

 

[Frankwillie87]

I think what's more likely to happen is that some of our defensive coaches get hired away and Harbin gets promoted. I'd guess Mike Ekeler is prime candidate for that.

Maybe Garner retires, but I haven't actually seen anyone mention that he's retiring, only Willie Martinez has seriously considered it.

I’m fuzzy on what the new rules allow or if they’re official. I read the PROPOSAL where a designated support staff could recruit on the road replacing an on-field coach and where support staff could individually coach players. What I’m not unclear about is that $250,000 doesn’t get this done. If he doesn’t need an onfield title, pay him what other programs will cough up to poach him with a clear succession plan to Garner written up. JMO

I could be entirely wrong (not likely, but possible) but I don't think Ekeler is going anywhere. That man seems to truly love UT and coaching here. I mean, I guess if someone through a DC role and big ole truck full of money at him he might jump, but he seems to be really happy here.

Yeah not going to happen anytime soon. As if garner’s agent would let that happen

 

[PowerT.]

Should be Tenn and they did a really good job on early playing time. It got really interesting last week, he actually told someone, Georgia was probably leading at that point. I still think it will be Tenn and he is good player no doubt.


On TN sellling early playing time

Did a really good job of that with Gass. Really good player here, UGA will be fine, I am sure they will continue to recruit him and see if they can get him to campus any time in the fall.

You know it kills these writers that have their lips sewn to the chicken hawk’s butt cheeks to give these kinds of responses. They always use the “…TN offered faster playing time since they have a weaker roster, that’s what sealed the deal…”

 

[BbwVol]

It's from yesterday, but I don't see where anyone mentioned it. Benjamin Wolk, from Dawg247, CBed Gass to Tennessee.

 

[PA Vol]

Lol, the LB room is starting to get pretty deep. It sure sounds like the UGA writers are lazily making **** up just to appease their newly added ex-Bama fans that are used to exclusive sunshine pumping.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

That’s Mansell to a T

He can’t admit that Coach Chop absolutely ransacked their coaches

 

[PA Vol]

I wonder if they recycle the same narrative for Perlotte, Hayward, Smith, House, Dodson, and hopefully Gaston?

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

Where is this early playing time? Edge? Heck no. MLB? No.

Now with the rule that you can hire as many on field coaches as you want. I could see us easily keeping garner and moving chop in as assistant d line coach or some made up title and pay him what's he is worth and keep both him and garner. Or atleast that's my hope.
