Wow will be very interesting to see how that works out.

Not a bad move but it's still funny

He’s got relationships with damn near every high school in the country as well as an eye for talent. It’s a pretty impressive hire for Lea. Apparently they were high school teammates

Kipp Adams taking over head of 247 scouting.

Plus a relationship with every QB camp, lineman camp, 7v7 tournament, etc.
And I assume he has a Rolodex full of young, talented, and hungry evaluators that would be eager for the chance to jump onto to a P5 staff and work for peanuts.

Does that mean they can’t make good hires?
I don’t see anyone picking them to win a natty but it’s an interesting hire.

Exactly, and they compete in a conference that routinely has over half its teams finish in the top 25 of the recruiting rankings every year.
They need all the help they can get. They need to think outside the box and take a chance.
No one expects them to start pulling in blue chip recruits, but this hire might help them identify underrated recruits and get in on the late bloomers early.
Vandy can’t compete playing the same game everyone else is playing. Simmons might end up being a bust hire, but at least Vandy is trying something a little different to level the playing field.

Yeah I couldn't really give a damn about Vandy's coaching moves. But I am legitimately disappointed that he will no longer be on either the Cover 3 or Barton and Bud podcasts.

With the last name Weinstein he’ll be perfect for Vandy in a couple ways.

It’s a really clever, out of the box hire. Definitely worth the risk on Vandy’s part. A tip of the cap to them.
