If the Vols land Tee Martin....

  • and it sounds like they will.....this staff is WAYY better than the last one. Now, last year's staff was radioactive dog crap so WAYY better doesn't guarantee anything other then being WAYY better than 2012.

  • If Tee leaves for his dream job after only coaching for one year at SC, I am burning every mattress I own. Including the air mattress in the hall closet for good measure.

    Still wayyyyyy to early. We won't know much until next September

    Well there's that answer obviously. But as for the "on paper" conversations we'll have a trillion of between now and then its a good staff.

    Butch Jones has hired that OC each of the three times he's gotten to hire an OC. So he obviously loves him as a coach.

  • What exactly will Tee's role be on Vols staff?

    Lights out recruiter I am assuming?

    I'm in the minority, but I like Butch Jones.

    If it were just you and me in the world, you wouldn't be a minority. I told all these SEC guys that Butch Jones is a very good hire. He will have them back to where they should be (top 1/3rd of the league).

    He'll be the WR coach with a possible title included (recruiting coordinator). Guy can really sell our program though.

  • Pretty shocking he turned them down. He about exploded with excitement when offered, flew his whole family in and then said no. Weird

    Are you willing to make a lateral move, to work for a man you don't know at all...vs staying at a place with the same job title, working with coaches and players you've spent a year with?

    He can use this to get more $$ from USC, while getting on the job training in a rich recruiting area, plus he can enjoy his family and walk down the street without being hounded by crazy fans, lol.

    There's no doubt reasoning behind it. Just seemed like he was jacked and ready to come home.

    Oh, I think he wears the pants alright, but he understands that the life of a coach's wife is not easy. I would bet a fortune that if the Vols offered a OC or HC job, Tee and his wife would be out of L.A. in seconds, and never look back. He may not love L.A. as much as wifey, but he's said all along that he loves it..and was pleasantly surprised.

    Two of our posters on FightOn, who are heavy into the music business, said the same thing - (before we knew he was staying)...a singer can live anywhere, and record in any studio across the country. Nashville is closer, and it has a great blues and R&B scene.

    The timing, and offer, just wasn't right.

    Haha, and I love being only an hour from that cool place...in a quiet, sane place in my nice little beach town surrounded by hills and rich agricultural land.

    When are you and wifey coming down to spend the day? You'll see a place that can stand in for any small town in America.
