Golesh to South Florida

[DaddyChad]

What an insane overreaction. Because we lost an OC?

He’s an insane troll so it’s par for the course.

 

[DaddyChad]

Do we take a chance on a never before OC?

It’s Heupel’s offense. I trust whoever he picks to run his system.

 

[DaddyChad]

has a chance to win it all,, bails ...coward in my eyes ,,, just my eyes only

What? Possibly the dumbest statement in this thread. And we thought HopefulVol had that award locked up.

 

[Pride85]

This isn’t good. Could Heupel be headed to OU eventually?

Can you please tell me why you chose "Hopeful Vol" as your handle? For you it is an oxymoron.

 

[Brave Volunteer]

What???? Do you just type
Whatever goes through your brain?

Isnt that usually how this works? LOL!

 

[Zues1]

More worried about who he takes with him, we’ll lose more coaches

Hopefully Martinez

Haha...

This is one time when your username does not check out.

You know some crazy will make that comment. I'm calling it now lol

Would you be upset with me if I pick you?!

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Some people love being negative.

Defensive coaches, usually.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

They got those guys cause of relationships and a culture.

They got 2 of those guys because of Tennessee incompetence.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Was really hoping we could hold on to him for one more season but when your the OC of the best offense in CFB schools are gonna come calling. USF may not win a ton of games next year but they will be fun to watch

I was hopeful for 3-4 years, just for the sake of continuity.

 

[cobbwebb0710]

I realize that. Tajh Boyd didn’t lead them to any titles and wasn’t a generational QB, he was a standard 4* QB that 10-12 teams get every year.

He was a big part of that Clemson turnaround.

 

[volsfan24017]

Martinez too

"Because you can't have one without the other."

 

[cobbwebb0710]

Heup seems like a guy that likes to reward and promote from within.
Halzle gets promoted to OC and continues to handle the QB’s
And
Heup hires either Jon Cooper or Joe Jon Finley to coach the TE’s

 

[Skippy95]

Heupel runs a very specific, unique system. You aren’t going to convince a big-named OC who is going to want to run things his way to come here. Halzle has been with Heupel a looooong time. He knows how this system works and he doesn’t have a big ego that will need to be placated.

This on its face is wrong, he went from Lebby to taking over the play calling duties himself to giving Golish the OC job. Halzle has followed him everywhere and didn’t ask him to be OC when Lebby left. If we’re being completely honest with ourselves. Heupel ran an air raid 4 wide system at Missouri. He went and hired Lebby as his OC and plugged in a bunch of the Baylor/ briles concepts, which he got from Lebby. He may try and take a run at Kendal for all we know.

Wonder what Nico thinks about this

Nico is counting his $.

 

[Toucan Sam]

He got a good pay raise.

 

[sonofUT62]

Go get Lebby

Lebby didn’t have a great season without Kiffin/ Heupel.

 

[madbamahater]

So the Vols are going into bowl game without an OC? Great, just great

 

[Carl Pickens]

I think he should have been more patient and taken a better opportunity. 1-11 is about as bad as a team can be

 

[Seattle Hillbilly]

Scott frost

Interesting thought….

Yes, it’s a dumpster fire here. But on the other hand, if he just shows any improvement over 1 win next year, people will be thrilled.

It’s a good area for recruiting if you are willing to work hard and build connections. USF is also building a new on campus stadium so you can sell that.

 

[gymmlover]

Lots of good candidates as discussed in this article.......Decker and Weeks look like good options.

Coaching options for Tennessee in replacing Alex Golesh

 

[sami]

Is this going to be the panicked reaction any time a coach leaves?

News flash - good programs lose coaches that take HC jobs because of their success here. That's a good thing.

I hope it's something we have to get used to on an annual basis.

Worked out ok the last time it happened. Just sayin.
