Weinke in the house

[Liberty]

Looks like we got a QB coach. I’d say this is a good hire & will stand by waiting to be told otherwise. Fire away.

 

[BigDanT]

Damnit. I still say I was first.

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

I was first in the Wiesehan thread. (To call it official)

 

[CarsonNewmanJacket]

Wait… as in Chris Weinke?

 

[The Jacket]

He was their QB for a couple of our soul-crushing losses to Florida State at the end of the 90's. I feel weird.

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

Wait… as in Chris Weinke?

Yes

 

[BainbridgeJacket]

Damnit. I still say I was first.

Ummm... no.

TE coach, Chip moves to OC/TE (thank God, he was terrible at Tulane coaching QBs), we bring in Weinke as QB coach.

 

[RussianOffense]

He was like 30 when he played for FSU so he must be around 60 now

49

 

[CarsonNewmanJacket]

Yes

Well I’ll be damned, what does he want with us? I’m not complaining at all, but I’m shocked a Heisman winner for a somewhat rival school would want to coach for us.

 

[RussianOffense]

Yep he played when I was at Tech and is over a decade older than me

 

[ScionOfSouthland]

Is Key the one making the offensive hiring decisions?

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

Well I’ll be damned, what does he want with us? I’m not complaining at all, but I’m shocked a Heisman winner for a somewhat rival school would want to coach for us.

He has been out of a job I believe since Pruitt was fired @Tenn. He may have been doing an analyst position somewhere.

Long and Key.

Also, Knoxville sucks ass.

 

[smokey_wasp]

Is Key the one making the offensive hiring decisions?

He is playing a Key role in these hires, yeah.

 

[BainbridgeJacket]

Is Key the one making the offensive hiring decisions?

No, Long made this hire.

 

[gtchief]

So what's the temperature on this hire?

 

[smokey_wasp]

No, Long made this hire.

And Key pushed for Long to get the OC job.

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

I hope Weinke does great developing our QBs, but I will not be distracted from Thack should not still be DC.

 

[ElCidBUZZingFAN]

So what's the temperature on this hire?

2015-16: St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams, Quarterbacks
2017: Alabama, Offensive Analyst
2018: Tennessee, Running Backs
2019-present: Tennessee, Quarterbacks

Remove the name. I’d take that resume for QB coach.
