Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Caleb Calhoun and Dave Hooker have an MLK related topic for the Vols on Off the Hook Sports’ Monday, Jan. 15 podcast along with the Alabama Crimson Tide’s new hire, Tennessee Football on the trail, UT Basketball news and recent SEC shakeups in the coaching world.
Alabama hires Kalen DeBoer
Nick Saban’s replacement has been tapped. The Crimson Tide hired Washington Huskies head coach Kalen DeBoer, who just led his program to the national championship game. How good of a hire is this given the circumstances? Is Alabama really that elite of a job anymore in the age of NIL? Also, what’s happening with them in the transfer portal?
SEC coaching shakeups, effect on Tennessee Football
With DeBoer to Bama, Tommy Rees is now co-offensive coordinator of the Georgia Bulldogs. Meanwhile, Auburn Tigers Hugh Freeze is set to take over play-calling duties, and Cadillac Williams has stepped down. The South Carolina Gamecocks are still in the midst of a staff overhaul as well.
Transfer TE commits to Tennessee Football
A coaching change at Alabama means a mass exodus of players, and Tennessee Football got in early with the addition of transfer tight end Miles Kitselman. How much of an addition is Kitselman to the Vols. Is Josh Heupel just throwing stuff at the wall to see what will stick for him at this point?
Vols and MLK Day
The University of Tennessee has a history of groundbreaking Civil Rights moments, more than most in the SEC. In honor of MLK Day, what is the most impressive groundbreaking moment in the history of the school? Is it something to do with Tennessee Football or can it be somewhere else?
Basketball Vols beat Georgia
Dalton Knecht scored 36 points and helped Tennessee Basketball complete a comeback win in the second half on the road against the Georgia Bulldogs Saturday 85-79. Jonas Aidoo added 10 points and 15 rebounds, and Zakai Zeigler added 18 points. What did UT show with the win?
