Dependable source says Cowher next UT Vols coach
I got word this afternoon by a dependable source within UT that says a deal is in the works now naming Bill Cowher the UT Vols coach. Along with that, former UT player and current Alabama D-coordinator Kevin Steele(who has ties to Cowher through Dom Capers) would become the D co/Ass.Head Coach at TN. It is also believed that Lane Kiffin will become the O coordinator and Head Coach in Waiting. I know it sounds like a far stretch but AD HAmilton knows he has to make a huge splash here and this comes from a good source that was right when he told me that Fulmer would be forced out and when. $ is no problem there as they have one of the top athletic budgets in the country along with prominent boosters wanting to make this happen. Only time will tell to see if this deal is inked.

Doubt that.Comment -
No chance.Comment -
No way, they couldnt afford all those top names. I dont see Cowher doing college!Comment -
That would certainly be out of left field.Comment -
Not a chance. Why would he coach college when he knows the NFL best? Tell your source to check himself.Comment -
cowher will be in cleveland when his daughters graduateComment -
That would be a very big splash.Comment -
Haha i love these "inside sources" threads cause its never based on reality but just some schmuck guessing and trying to make a name for himself.
You're telling us that ESPN doesnt have these sources but some random dude on a forum does?
There is no way he'll goto TN when there are/will be so many open NFL coaching positions and wealthy owners willing to make him the highest paid coach. Rams, Raiders, Lions, Browns and Chargers would immediately dump their lame ducks to hire him.Comment -
NO chance...he doesn't want to have to recruitComment -
It was a joke I thinkComment -
Wow thats a lot of high profile names!!!Comment -
I have also heard that Mike Singletary will coach the linebacks and play Middle Linebacker after applying for two additional years of collegiate eligibility. Jimmy Johnson will coach Special Teams and promote a orange hair gel called VOLume hair gel.Originally posted by The Seer

Actually as an SEC fan and some close friends in the TN community I'm hearing that I new head coach will be named by mid-December. That will of course rule out any NFL coaches who where slated to take the job. I'm hearing Kiffin and possibly bringing Ed Orgeron as the Defensive Coordinator and to help with recruiting.Comment -
first I've heard of his name coming up...Comment -

People can laugh all they want but they tried like hell to get Cowher and it was very close. The deal with Kiffen is he is supposed to bring his dad from Tampa and Orgeron (one of the best D line coaches in the country). Nutt is playing with Orgeron's players. It'll be a good staff either way.Originally posted by purecarnaggeComment -
