Chaney's name came us as the result of someone throwing crap at a wall to see what would stick, I think. Miles wanted Crowton out because Crowton like more of a spread offense, while Miles wants someone to line it up and run it, Michigan style. If that's true, he's not looking to hire Jim Chaney.

 

Hopefully that's right. Chaney's not a "Power-I" 3 yards and a cloud of dust coordinator, so he won't fit if Miles is looking for that.

 

I don't think Miles is looking to run a 3-yd and cloud of dust coordinator. He does want to reign things in from all the multiple sets that Crowton ran. He's still looking to run a pro-style offense at LSU by all indications.

 

Since those first names leaked out, it's been pretty quiet on who LSU might consider.

Texas lost Duane Akina last night which was a huge blow, but already signed Jerry Gray to fill his spot which is great news. Still need to figure out the new OL coach.

Seriously, there's a Strength and Conditioning coach of the year award?

 

Apparently. I had never heard of it.

 

I'm not really surprised, its a good way for them to demand a raise.

Sounds like Michigan is hiring Greg Mattison as DC. Very solid hire. I'm happy with that.

 

It's a great hire for Michigan but odd for Mattison isn't it? Unless he really wants to become a college head coach.

He's 61, so being a head coach is probably not in his cards. He's coached with Brady Hoke before and was DC at Michigan back in the 90's. He also has a daughter that lives in Ann Arbor and she's supposed to be having a baby soon. He's always been big on family.

Huge hire for him, though I don't know how much he is going to have to work with this next season.

Steve Kragthorpe to LSU as the new OC.

 

Good. With that, Chaney stays at TN.

 

Also, there are three HUGE unofficial visitors on UT's campus right now, but all are there under a veil of secrecy. Don't know that it means anything, but maybe it does. Also, I'm hearing great things about Gabe Wright.

Interesting, this seemed like a pretty tame weekend given our official visitors being mostly strongly committed.

 

Chaney staying is nice, but I hope there's nothing to the Baggett-to-Dallas rumor.

Pretty sure he said "thanks, but no thanks" last week or even the week before. I could be wrong on that, but I think that's true.

That's excellent news.

 

Anything on Tiny Richardson and Cam Clear? I'd been hearing that they were both really likely UT guys, but recently I've heard they may be swaying elsewhere.
