Jim Bob Cooter has been mentioned as a potential candidate as well. Names from all different directions are mentioned this time of year when it comes to coaching jobs.
Jim Bob Cooter would be a good hire.

Jim Bob Cooter has a realistic chance of getting an NFL HC offer in the next 1 to 3 years. If he's offered the Vols job, so much will come down to his motivation of becoming an NFL HC vs. being the HC at the school he attended and played his college ball at. The success Sean McVay is having with the LA Rams could open up many possibilities for JBC.

Jim Bob Cooter declined the opportunity to interview for the University of Tennessee HC job. My gut feeling is if everything is equal, they prefer a HC with HC experience. Cooter clearly wouldn't have been their first choice.

Regarding the AFC South HC situations, the only team that I expect a coaching change with is Indianapolis. At least for me, it doesn't make sense for Tennessee to move in a different direction. The team is tied with the Jaguars for 1st place in the AFC South. Both franchises have made great progress in recent seasons. Houston is in excellent hands with Bill O'Brien. I think he's a top 10 NFL HC.
I'm so sick of Gruden -- on MNF he was going off on the fact that these 2 teams (Ravens & Chiefs) have players that lay it out on the line for each other and that's what makes them so good. Both teams are now 6-5 -- [BLEEP] !!
