UR Football Coach Heads to University of Tennesee
It’s official. According to Go Vols Xtra, University of Richmond football coach Dave Clawson will head to University of Tennessee to become UT’s offensive coordinator.
Now, the next question: who will Richmond hire?
Clawson, 40, met with Richmond athletic director Jim Miller on Thursday night, and the Spiders moved up a previously scheduled team meeting to 3 p.m. today.
On Thursday night, Richmond sports information director Mike DeGeorge confirmed an Associated Press report that said Clawson had been offered the job. DeGeorge could not confirm whether Clawson had accepted the job.
Tennessee is expected to announce its new offensive coordinator sometime this weekend.
Spiders wide receivers coach Latrell Scott also is expected to join Tennessee’s staff as an assistant coach, the source said.
