So since T-Rob is a top CB coach and joined the staff, that means you think Diaz is a top coach. Interesting.

Kinda forgetting that a big reason Pruitt is gone is the impending recruiting violations. Tennessee hired big time attorneys to investigate. Schools don't do that for violations like having offering cream cheese for bagels (a school actually got in trouble for that!)

Now all that being said, Sark announced he was leaving Bama, so that obviously would be a bigger distraction than Strong leaving to be DC. But who knows, maybe Diaz took Strong down to La Carreta while he's in town and worked out the whole deal while splitting a colada. If anyone finds Strong...

As another poster said, mental gymnastics. I can't explain a guy as in high demand as T-Rob taking the job if Baker is going to be calling plays. It is the one thing that blows up any of the other theories that Baker is returning as DC or Diaz struck out on all his candidates. He's smart...

OR Diaz's other prime target is currently preparing for the national championship game and Diaz is respecting that, and he's waiting until after the game to make an announcement. One can hope. T-Rob joined the staff. That deal is done. I just can't see him signing up to work for Blake...

Meh, I'd prefer Charlie Skrong over Kevin Steele anyways. Maybe Skrong didn't want to cause Bama any distractions before the national championship game and things will heat up afterwards. Not a secret that Saban would lose his **** if rumors around Skrong were taking attention away from...

https://247sports.com/Article/tennessee-football-hiring-freeze-no-contract-extensions-investigation-recruiting-violations-158731992/ A school doesn't hire prominent lawyers to investigate minor recruiting violations that are easy to sweep under the rug. Two possibilities: 1. Tennessee hired...

So a guy with HC aspirations is going to join a program that could be on the brink of getting hammered by the NCAA? Seems hard to believe. The NCAA isn't going to punish one of its premier SEC programs, but Tennessee is far enough down in the pecking order but high profile enough that it...

If Steele turned down a DC gig at Miami to be an analyst with Tennessee, that would be more embarrassing than UNC's 36 pt beatdown or losing to FIU. I also wouldn't be surprised if Tennessee has some Barry Jackson equivalent making up nonsense.

Unless T-Rob is planning to pull a Cristobal and bail just after joining the staff, his acceptance of the job is the one thing that doesn't fit in the theory that Diaz is keep Baker at DC.

Miami telling a position coach to write his own check? Seems highly unlikely.

Hope not. If that's the case, he's chosen career suicide. I find it hard to believe a premier position coach like T-Rob, who could get a job almost anywhere, would agree to board a sinking ship. Maybe Baker is still on staff but not calling plays. Personally I think it's a mistake to...

Season ended a few weeks ago. Diaz has to know whether he's keeping the DC or not by now. Seeing as a number of transfers might be very interested in knowing who the DC will be before making a decision, I assume Diaz would have clearly stated that Baker will be DC if that was the plan. I'm...

NFL coaching pension is supposedly fantastic.
