Long Rant: Future Vols Program and Lane Kiffen comments Tennessee performed exactly the way people said they would when we found out Nico bailed on us and we were starting the season with a QB brand new to the system. WITH ONE CAVEAT. This defense, not the players, but the situational play calling and lack of awareness was the difference between 8 wins and 10 wins. It’s clear and obvious that the talent is there on defense. Look at all the freshmen and sophomores making great plays all year long. And the older guys too. In fact, it was the dudes on this defense that kept us from falling below 8 wins. Now you have a top 10 class coming in. And a bunch of experienced young guys hopefully returning. Heads have to roll on the defensive staff. Full stop. Better defensive playcalling and oversight from Coach Heup HAVE TO HAPPEN. If I was dictator for a day with this team, I would hire an inspired offensive play caller and a new Safety and LB coach AT MINIMUM. If not that, then a new DC + S and LB coach. I would also hire the best available special teams coach on the market and I would add a kicker in the portal for competition. After that, I would trim the fat on any underperforming players who demand more money in the offseason. And then offer their would-be money to add depth at every position on defense. I mean a full 11 players if I can get them. I would do everything in my power to retain Joey Aguilar and Redshirt Brandon. Although I would let him play his maximum starts without giving up redshirt. I would force Josh Heupel into CEO mode. He would be responsible for full oversight of OC and DC to maintain quality at all times. And I would make it known to him that sloppy play would be unacceptable next season. That means no repeated procedural penalties. No back breaking 3rd and long personal fouls. Clean up both sides of the ball or you are out after this season. With playcalling out of Heups hands, and full time to QC the offense/defense/ST there will be no more excuses. No more missed opportunities in clock management. No more excuses for sloppy penalties. No more excuses for conservative playcalling. After that, with a returning 3000yd starter at QB, All that youth experience returning next season, revamped D, change at play caller, you then open up a one year window to reach the playoffs. Playoffs or bust. You don’t reach, you don’t coach here next year. Time is now. Lane kiffen is exactly what the reporter said he is. A whore. Not only that, but a whore for money and for fame. A track record of nothing but leaving situations that other coaches would kill for. All so that he can earn more money, or gain more prestige for himself. He clearly doesn’t care about legacy. He leaves a trail of broken hearted fans everywhere he goes. He doesn’t care about creating anything. He only cares about himself. Case in point he created a great program at ole Miss over 6 seasons and is now leaving them high and dry for more money and fame. Could have built a 10-15 year contender. Instead he leaves them as a one trick pony. And had the nerve to tell the AD that he still wanted to coach for a playoff run. You don’t get to have your cake and eat it too. If he cared about a championship he would have remained at ole Miss and tried to lead them to the promised land. I agree with Ole Miss decision to deny him that right. And anyone who is a Vols fan that wants him back, you are fucking retarded. Imagine wanting your cheating ex back. After she left you and cheated on everyone else they got with after you. All for what? Good sex? Guy is a man whore. End of story. Gone are the days of coaches loving their teams and being loyal to them to the end. Phil Fulmer was one of the Last of that breed. End of rant. Thanks for your attention to this matter!
