Offensive Coordinator candidates

[sjt18]

Joey Halzle, that’s pretty much the list.

Yes. Unless Heupel has decided to let someone else come in and recreate the offense to be something different than HIS offense.

Niedermeyer

No he sucks as a recruiter. Couldn’t reel in Darnell Washington

 

[SayUWantAreVOLution]

Yes. Unless Heupel has decided to let someone else come in and recreate the offense to be something different than HIS offense.

I don't understand this comment. Golesh was a B1G-style coach, mostly, before hooking up with Heupel at UCF. It's not like he was committed to a tempo offense for his whole career.

What makes you think a coach can't come in as OC without redoing the offense? Golesh came to UCF from Iowa State but didn't bring their offense.

I doubt if He would do that.

Niedermeyer

Tied to Pruitt...that hire want fly ...

 

[keenobserver]

Does anyone know when Golesh actually began the playcalling duties or has he handled it since Coach Heupel has been here?

I remember Heupel saying he (himself) would be calling the plays at some early press conferences.

I got the impression Golesh was more heavily involved this year than last.

Kevin Decker

Fordham:
5000 passing yards
2340 rushing yards
58 passing TD’s
21 rushing TD’s

Over 7k yards & almost 80td’s (totally different level, but their talent is same level as who they play)

Also has experience as a TE coach

With Heupel’s system

Never heard of him til now. But yes, he installed Heupels offense!

Heupel did all/most last year. Then Golesh did this year.

But need to bring in a super recruiter

Realistically we will hire a TE coach who recruits. Garner coached TE during his first stint here.

I’m sure Heupel will hire form within.

If not this is definitely who I think he should go for.

TE experience, knows the system, 7k yards and 80td’s……..at Tennessee with Heupel’s system……”could” do well with recruiting (because of the numbers).

If they promote from within maybe they go after a recruiter.

Coaches are lining up to join this staff. And I’m sure he has an eye for talent. Golesch added a lot of great run concepts to the Heupel/Halzle passing concepts. Halzle probably gets this but I would interview some folks.

He wasn't an OC until he got to UCF and even then only a "co" OC.

The names being thrown around are primarily guys who would want to come in and have control over what UT does. Hazle is about the same age and experience that Golesh was when Heupel promoted him.

Unless there's a deficiency that Hazle has not overcome then he is the likely, almost exclusive, choice.

Again, he wasn't an OC at Iowa State. He was the TE coach.

I don't think anyone would come to UT at this point and think they're going to control the offense.

I suggested Lebby, who would be pricy but has worked with Heupel. I agree Halzle may be ready and also understands what Heupel wants.

Early look at potential candidates for Tennessee’s new offensive coordinator

Anyone have unlocked info

 

[Volsurance]

A friend said that a coworker heard that Gruden’s private plane landed at McGhee Tyson today. Brent Hubbs to confirm shortly.

 

[Volsfan1313]

I'd be fine with CJH just calling the offensive plays, but I'd love to see Mason as our DC. Banks isn't cutting it imo

 

[Stownterry]

And when Huep goes to ou that will clear the way for lane to come home and all will be happy ……

[GoVols1961]

Derek Dooley.

This all day. His system is infallible.

And he knows how to build Brick mailboxes.

Now you’re cooking with gas!





Damn, I’m so 53.

“Cooking on the front burner” as well!

 

[Jeff Clark]

Scott Frost will be a very nice candidate

 

[Brave Volunteer]

Hal Mumme or Jerry Glanville.
