Zach Azzanni

Current wide receivers coach at Tennessee

Anytime there’s a former offensive coordinator on staff, you can guarantee that person will at least get some consideration.

Azzanni was mentioned as candidate when offensive coordinator Mike Bajakian left for Tampa Bay in 2015.

He didn’t get the job, but he did get a raise and a promotion to passing game coordinator.

Jones loves having Azzanni on his staff. He’s a great recruiter. But I’m not sure elevating him to offensive coordinator is the best idea.

This is a move that fans would probably hate, but it’s realistic because Jones loves continuity on his staff.
