BREAKING NEWS: Watson & Wickline Gone 🚮

I thought Wickline was an excellent teacher and evaluator of talent at the OL.  I will be sorry to see him go.  I take it he was not the most accomplished recruiter, but those who did come to UT during his tenure have so far proven very productive.

 
Now time to give Robinson and norvell their walking papers
Norvell is hopefully staying. He's still one of the best WR coaches in the game. Robinson is more than likely gone, he just isn't cutting it on the recruiting trail. The RB coach should be one of if not the lights out recruiter on staff and he just hasn't gotten it done.

 
Read an interesting piece on another site. Said that the coaches meeting room was pretty toxic throughout the past year. Said one assistant resented Traylor and said that Watson was always trying to prove that he was the smartest person in the room. Not a stretch to conclude that Watson and Wickline were part of the problem.

I read that same thing. They confirmed that the assistant that was disrespectful to Traylor, wasn't Wickline. Which makes you wonder if it was Watson or Robinson. It's been reported multiple times now that Norvell and Traylor worked well with each other. If it wasn't Wick, it had to be one of Watson or Robinson. I could see Robinson as he's the RB Coach and Traylor took over the Running Game. But I also see Watson as it was confirmed he had some serious ego issues.

 
Is CS in those meetings, and if so isn't it his job to stop this type of thing from escalating to this level

The Head Coach is typically not in those meetings. Especially if it's not their specialty. This is even true for many HS programs. That is why you have coordinators.

From what I've gathered, I think it was Watson. The guy is just an asshole IMO. Hopefully he's leaving the program completely. I've been afraid Charlie may keep him around in some administrative roll or something.
