Potential Coaching Staff Members (list)

I suppose it would be logical to get rid of Adkins as well. He could be a TE coach, but I don't see us retaining him now.

 

[myrobbins7]

nvm.

 

[Volsguy12]

VKB, add John Benton as potential candidate..OL coach from Texans.

 

[k-sny-vol]

so who are all the offensive coaches Kiffin has installed here at UT ?

along with defensive coaches as well ?

David Reaves is the only one of offense. Unless Cregg is on the OL. On the D, Monte is the only one. But Orgeron is looking like a great possibility.

If there is any position on the roster in the UTK offense that outta be coached by committe it should be TE's. This and the hiring of a ST coach that knows what the hell he's doing would go miles in making UTK a credible top ten university in football again.

 

[VolColts03]

What are the chances of some of Monte's defensive proteges joining the staff? Names that come to mind are:

Alan Williams: DB Coach for Colts, coached at TB under Monte
Jimmy Lake: DB Coach for Lions, coached at TB under Monte

I'm sure there's plenty more spread out around the league. Monte has plenty of connections, do any of them come?

I agree at least about a ST coach. Probably need someone in the strength and conditioning department as well. I believe one of the first things Cutcliffe did , when he went to duke, was to hire a new S & C coach. Duke still isnt that great but they won a more games this year than in the past few seasons combined.

 

[hvwarrior58]

It is possible that Cregg won't be the OL coach. He can coach the DL as well as TEs and John Benton is still a name that Hubbs is hearing as a candidate for the OL.

He also continues to hear Gonzales for WRs.

 

[chavisut]

So Orgeron isn't for certain?

 

[hvwarrior58]

Nah, Orgeron is pretty likely at this point. Almost certain.

 

[chavisut]

That's what I was thinking. Seems OL is the likely spot for Cregg then.

 

[vols kick balls]

I think Cregg is going to be the TE coach.

 

[chavisut]

That would make sense too.

 

[hvwarrior58]

Yeah, really seems like the offensive staff that Kiffin wants is:

Reaves-QBs
Rathman-RBs
Gonzales-WRs
Cregg-TEs
Benton-OL

 

[NewVol]

Would everybody be happy with this staff?

[vols kick balls]

Reaves will not be the OC and we will have more than 3 defensive coaches.

 

[NewVol]

Reaves will not be the OC and we will have more than 3 defensive coaches.

How many spots are there for coaches? I thought it was 9. And we had 4 defensive coaches this year w/2 DL coaches and including Chavis.

 

[vols kick balls]

10 counting HC. I don't think there will be room for a ST's coach.

 

[NewVol]

10 counting HC. I don't think there will be room for a ST's coach.

Oh okay. I assume one of the offensive assistants will be the STC

 

[vols kick balls]

Oh okay. I assume one of the offensive assistants will be the STC

That could be it. I don't think having a guy who's only duty is ST's is going to work out. Just not enough spots.

You are over the limit. Can only have 10 coaches. If you cut the ST coach it would fit. The only reasonable way I can think of to get a STC, is if you do TE coach by committee.

 

[cd12]

Whatever happened to the coaches Hyams blabbed about but couldn't reveal? Same with the QB, Hooker wouldn't name?

He only listed 10 names.
