Just curious if Coach Roark was (or will be) retained by Coach Jones. Has anybody heard?

I am not sure but I have not heard of any coaches staying from the old staff . . . but I have been wrong before.

The only thing I can relay is that I was told Roark would have an opportunity to interview with the new coaching staff.

Coach Roark always talked about how great things were at Tennessee. I would bet that if anyone from the former staff sticks, it would be Coach Sawyer or Coach Edmondson. With that said, I bet none of them are asked to stick around.

That's fine just put their checks in the mail and wish them luck.

Now that makes a little more sense! Always thought he was a decent guy, but not much of a coach. Then again, what do I know, I sit in front of this computer all day!!!

I sure hope not we have seen way to many punts blocked each year...

That wouldn't have happened if we had punted out of the swinging gate formation.
