Honestly, I think Chaney was the guy back in December after Freeze was nixed by the admin as well as Briles, and we were asked to not release it until after the bowl season was over.

Per reports (not sauces) Georgia did try to counter offer, and we countered the counter.

We are still talking with Tee Martin, who would come back as position coach+ Co-OC. If we get Tee back home, it's fricking huge. Tee is a damn good position coach and is a cheat code on the recruiting trail.


Pittman would have made this a Grand Slam hire, but I do think keeping Friend isn't the worst thing in the world, he can coach. It's also not out of the realm of possibility that Friend will get offered another OC position next year, and then we make a real run at Pittman, who absolutely loved working at Tennessee and was shunned by that tomato faced hedgehog **** Lyle Jones.


Good luck. Looks like UGA is offering him a title bump to Asst HC and a raise to $1.5 million. Highest paid OL coach in history. He's now a lifer in Athens.

Also, this move makes it plain to see who was valued by UGA between Chaney and the PittBoss.

If I were him I'd love UGA more. He has a chance at titles here and won't be coaching the second best team in the state.

We only let you have coaches that we don't want, like Chaney and Dooley

Solid hire for the Vols but no one is going to melt over losing him. Pitt leaves and then you’ll see a melt.

Hey, V&S, go give Sandusky his daily snuggle. Even in prison you have work to do. Course you don’t consider that work.

Pruitt ain't playing. Georgia will likely promote Pittman now to keep from getting 2 L's. Although this is not official and you can believe the Dawgs will come back @ Chaney with a massive offer. IF this is for real.....IF!



Pittman isn't going to Tennessee. Friend, the Tennessee Oline coach and Pruitt were roommates in college, I think. Plus Friend is about to land a second 5* OT, and seems to be doing a great job at UT.

I don't know why so many people think they have to crap on a coach that leaves their team. Chaney did a solid job for us as OC, and will do a solid job for Tennessee. It will be a good pickup for UT. I hope we get a solid replacement.

I will now make sure VOLS users spare you in the internet onslaught that will occur in the coming days.

Fwiw none of us really expect anything to happen with Friend since he is BFFs with Pruitt like you said. VOLS #1 position coach target right now should be Tee Martin

I don't think it's a given. he is a leading candidate, though. Most of the fans on our board feel like it would be a bad move. I honestly don't know. Personally, I would prefer to get a proven coordinator.
James Coley, I think is who you are thinking about.

Revisionist history. Chaney is a garbage playcaller.



Chaney can make some good calls when things are going well. When the game’s close he chokes like a giraffe eating a porcupine.
