Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Will Never Top Michael Jordan

[Note from Will - 4:23 PM EST 1/25/10] Still nothing official, but VolQuest has an awesome piece on Chuck Smith ($) that includes the following:

"I feel like this is my destiny," Smith said. "...I think I know how to teach this generation. I've learned a lot and I know I can coach players to protect the run, but also beat the hell out of quarterbacks.

facebook is blocked on my computer

what does this say? we hired him for the DL?

It doesn't give any details on what he will be coaching

And this is the only person I have seen reporting it so far.

I would guess DLine.

Here is the exact quote:

Tony Basilio on ESPN Knoxville 1180am has reports that Chuck Smith has been hired on the #vols football staff.

well Basilio struck out multiple times during the HC search

so i’ll believe it when someone more credible reports it.

Umenyiora actually became so dedicated to the technical aspect of the game that he spent the night before Super Bowl XLII chatting with Smith about how best to attack New England Patriots Pro Bowl offensive tackle Matt Light

The list of guys he has worked with is incredible

Hyams says that he would be a long shot

yet volquest puts out an article that Smith says he would relish the opportunity. Hyams is terrible

LETS HOPE

This would be great news, he would be a great smash mouth type coach that we need. Old smokey Sez Go Big Orange!!!!!!!!!

Rucker's got some info for those of you who are not on Twitter:

So yeah, #Jets coach Rex Ryan is saying Chuck Smith will be with the #Vols next season. No confirmation from UT, though

#Vols officials who will “announce” coaching hires have not been told to prepare release. But when Smith’s old boss says it, it’s happening.
