Offensive coordinators have been getting hired left and right in college football, but Tennessee’s position remains vacant. Is that because the Volunteers feel comfortable with their options? Tennessee reporter Austin Price has said that Vols head coach Jeremy Pruitt has spoken with Steve Sarkisian and Matt Canada about the job. John Brice adds that Sarkisian will have plenty of options in both college and the NFL. Sarkisian and Pruitt were on staff together at Alabama in the 2016 season before Sarkisian left to become the Falcons’ offensive coordinator. Sarkisian previously has served as a head coach at Washington before leaving for USC, a job from which he was fired due to alcoholism. Tennessee is looking for a new offensive coordinator after Tyson Helton left to take the Western Kentucky head coaching job. Hugh Freeze previously interviewed for the job before becoming Liberty’s head coach.
