Is Sal Sunseri a good coach?

He spent a long time with the Panthers, and is now a LB coach for Alabama. His name is being thrown around in Knoxville as a candidate for the defensive coordinator job at UT.

From what I know about this guy, I think it would be a stretch to make him a coordinator right now. What do you guys think about this dude? Is he ready for a job like that?

I'll hang up and listen...

He coached some spectacular D-lines for us. That's about all I know.

D-line was almost always our strongest defense unit when he was here.

for most of the time it was but the last couple years it starting falling off. not sure it was his fault.

as far as him being a DC....in college i don't think it would be a problem for him. college defenses aren't all that complicated. i'm sure he learned a bit last year about what makes a good one at the college level.

i always liked him....well, as long as he wasn't coaching where little kids are running around. he has a way of expanding their vocabulary in ways that parents probably don't approve of. :lol:

I liked him. It always pissed me off to hear people complain about how hard nosed, and in your face he was.

It's football, not day care. We need more like him so that some of the pansy asses around the league get a grip on that. It's a tuff, vilent sport, and if a few cuss words hurt your wittle feelings....then you don't need to be playing it.

baker is a bit more hard-nosed than sal, imo. he uses less colorful language but it is every bit, if not more, "in your face".

at training camp it was always a little funny watching soccer moms bring their kids to practice and then see their reaction when sal let it fly.

Someone with more football knowledge than we is considering him for a coordinator position?

Nah, I'd say he sucks as a coach.

:)

i don't know if anyone around here said that he sucks. he was about the only person in the coach exodus last year i was at all sad to see leave.

i'm more than happy with baker, though.

I never said that he sucks as a coach. I know that he had successful defensive lines. I just didn't know much else about the guy. Considering Tennessee first went after Dick Bumpass (DC at TCU) and Kevin Steele, you might see why I'm questioning the readiness of a current ILB coach.

Again, I was just asking to see what you guys thought. I wasn't saying that this guy would be a bad pick. I just don't know a whole lot about him.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if the Pats win it all or at least get there. Maye is awesome.

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      By KaseKlosed · Posted

      Young quarterbacks Drake Maye, Bo Nix, and Bryce Young have led their teams to undefeated records since October.   Drake Maye has guided the New England Patriots to a 5-0 record in that period, with 2,285 passing yards and 17 touchdowns in nine games. Bo Nix has directed the Denver Broncos to a 5-0 stretch, throwing for 1,976 yards and 17 touchdowns, contributing to a 7-2 overall start. Bryce Young, in his second season, has led the Carolina Panthers to a 4-0 run since October, accumulating 1,390 yards and 11 touchdowns amid a 4-4 record.   Undefeated QBs since start of October (min. 4 starts)   Drake Maye 5-0 Bo Nix 5-0 Bryce Young 4-0   Bryce Young when asked about his mindset during game winning drives: "You don’t rise to the occasion you fall back to the level of your training."

      Most hated teams

      1. Cowboys-No explanation needed. 2. Rest of NFC South equally. If I had to pick I would say Falcons.    3. Eagles- Both of the games I have attended there the fans were so horrible. The fan base is so ridiculously misbehaved, I’ve never seen such immaturity. 4- Lions- I have cousins in Michigan that grew up Lions fans and they are some of the most obnoxious people I have ever met, as are all of their Lions buddies. The NFL has been lucky that Detroit has been in the cellar for its eternity.    5. Tie between Bears and Vikings. Both act like Steelers, Cowboys, Niners fans do with nostalgia and legendary seasons but neither have ever really had them. They act like they each won 5 super bowls in previous decades but never accomplished poo outside of Chicago in 85.
