Orgeron hired as Associate Head Coach at Tennessee

Forget what we posted earlier from LSU Beat... we're serious this time.

The former Ole Miss head coach, who spent the 2008 season as the New Orleans Saints defensive line coach, confirmed via text message this afternoon that he has accepted an offer to be the Volunteers recruiting coordinator, defensive line coach and will have the title of associate head coach.

"I'm so excited," Orgeron said via phone. "I get to coach with Monte [Kiffin] and I'm getting to recruit again. It's pedal to the metal and I can't wait to get up there."

This is a lights out hire by Tennessee. I didn't think Orgeron made sense at LSU, especially with Hester recruiting lights out.

The Vols need Orgeron like a _________ needs the ________. It's doesn't matter what metaphor you go with... all of them underestimate how badly UT needs Orgeron.
