Great move by Tee...resume' builder. He can escape the sucky football at UK and go build a name for himself.

Agreed, and if we can't have him... good to get him out of the SEC. Good for Tee. |

I have mixed feelings about this one. I understand aobut building a resume, but then again it's Lane Kiffin! The biggest thing that gets me though is that UT had an opening and Tee never got a call. Heck, Dooley could have hired him as the QB coach and let Chaney be the OC and let him move about on the offensive side on a daily basis. Heck, he had Tee could have worked together with the QB's.

Tee needs to have a little more experience before he gets a call. I think he will, in the future.

Maybe we'll steal him away the season before we kick kittens ass for a national championship!  |

Yep. I say GO TEE! Get all the experience you can and then come home to Tennessee! He is a great guy and I wish him all the best! Just preparing to "come home"! :-) |

I dislike Lane as much as the next guy, but he is an okay X and O coach, and if Tee got a call from SoCal, he could/should get a call from UT.
Of course, knowing Lane, he might have done it just to tweak UT again, even if it was subconcious.
For his part, Tee might be a bit POed about being snubbed and is getting some satisfaction from going to soCal.
You have to think that Tee can recruit, being a QB on a national championship team, at the very least.

I GUARANTEE that's the case. Think about it: for a guy who always brags about having the best staff in football, do you really think he would have hired anyone else with an identical resume? As much as we love(d) Tee, his coaching credentials are still pretty thin at this point. He didn't exactly set the world on fire at UK. Kiffin has proven he'll spare no expense to hire any coach he wants. Do you REALLY think he hired Tee because he was the best guy available? He's just using him, and I'm disappointed that Tee is too blind to see it. I have a picture of Tee walking into Jalen Ramsey's house in Brentwood wearing his red and yellow crap and extolling the virtues of Watts U, and it makes me want to puke.  |

I don't think Kiffin cares about "tweaking" UT. I think he wants Tee for recruiting, Tee has good connections to southern states like Alabama, FL, and Georgia. |

Well of course that's part of it. Kiffin and O's names are mud in this part of the country. I don't doubt that he'd want a coach with Southern roots for recruiting. But there are a LOT of those out there, most with better resumes than Tee. |

If nothing else, he'll have inside knowledge of how a program goes from repeat offender to death penalty. |

Well when Kiffin gets fired, I would welcome Tee back to Neyland and gladly. I don't blame him for doing what's best for him.
