This hire is based completely off of continuing to build on what we already have going on offense.

It will be the same formations, same terminology, etc. Butch was comfortable with Debord running his style of play. Trying to completely revamp our offense with a team finally talented enough to win some games would have been a bad hire. I agree the name itself is underwhelming but I agree with the thought process of continuity.

Like in 2012 when we hired a new DC (sunseri) who switched us from a 3-4 to a 4-3. We promptly lost 7 games with the best statistical offense in Tennessee's history (avg 36 pts/game, 31 pts/gm in SEC)...because we had one of the worst defenses in Tennessee history.

I like the continuity in this hire.
