Should've kept Chaney. He was a good OC.

Damn, I was hoping Pittman would be staying
Posted on 12/7/12 at 9:33 pm to volfan30
In my experience no more than one coach stays
Posted on 12/7/12 at 9:34 pm to volfan30
I guess no Trooper for UT if you keep Hinshaw

So he let Pittman and Chaney go. Seems like he is 1/3 right now on good moves. Not a good start.

Here's to Chaney making the move a few hundred miles west.

I hear he can recruit defensive players, and that he doesn't really coach anyone so.....maybe he could...nah nvm

Chaney really did a poor job here imo outside of this year.
Pittman did a pretty good job, but he was working with elite talent that he did not even recruit. Whoever comes in next year on the o-line will likely see great results as well.

I would have liked him to keep his job but since we hired an offensive minded head coach i'm ok with it. If we hired Charlie Strong (defensive guy) I would have blown a gasket if he let him go jmo.

Chaney did a lot of good things with the players he had at UT. Dooley's dumb arse just cost them at least 4 games with the hiring of Sal.

id trade one potentially decent recruiting class for long term success.

I assume he is doing this to eliminate a culture of losing. I'll get over it.
till we start losing again.

After the NCAA investigation Trooper the Pooper will be lucky to coach High School football. The SEC will not hire Trooper or Luper.
