Yeah. We would have to convert to the 3-4 under him though. The guy has been Franklins saving grace at both stops

Shoop really has... for a guy with an offensive background, James Franklins offenses suck... even with a potential NFL QB.

Im pretty sure Shoops base defense is 43 but I could be wrong

I'm probably wrong. For some reason I thought he schemed 3-4.

i thought he ran a 3-4 too until I googled it bro lol. After some research, It looks like Shoop runs a base 4-3 with a lot of nickel. Maybe there won't be too much of a transition if that's the case

Our DC isn't the issue. He is one of our strong points. We need a better wr and oline coach

I like Janitors but he absolutely deserves some blame for the late game meltdowns

Gotcha. That would erase any hesitancy I would have about the hire. I don't want to transition from the 4-3 to the 3-4, tbh. He has always had some salty defenses. As much as I hate to admit it, I was really impressed with what he did at Vandy given their talent. He has been crucial in Franklins success, IMO. Would love to have him

So y'all are hiring assistants from a shitty team that's been shitty for years living off its reputation? Sounds good to me.

This hire, and the hire of Wisky's DC, is why the B1G is behind the SEC. Gotta pay these guys to keep them in the conference.

I'm with you. The more I read about this guy the more I want him to come to Tennessee. Looks like Shoop personally handles the defensive backs so Willie could be out too.

Fortenberry just posted this on VQ

P_Fortenberry Hey guys, obviously we are working to find out what's going on. But, know that it's a travel day for Brent and John as they are heading back to Knoxville. As for the defensive coordinator situation, we continue to hear that that position is being evaluated. If Butch decides to make a move on that I do believe Shoop is a name he quickly turns to. I think Aranda would have been a name as well. But, he's off to LSU now.

I haven't watched Penn State, is he worth the $1 Million + that it's gonna take to hire him?

Shoop's last 5 years of total defense finished ranked 14, 2, 23, 19, and 18.

Janitor's last 5 years were 36, 36, 83, 54, 42.

Penn State hasn't been as talented the last 5 years or so as they have historically been. However, their Ds are consistent top 20 units. Larry Johnson is probably responsible for a lot of the better DL guys, but their D is always sound. With the Tenn talent he can do some good things I would think
