Tennessee is heading into an important 2022 season under Josh Heupel, who led the Vols to a 7-6 record in his first year on Rocky Top.

On Wednesday, he reportedly made a nice addition to his offensive coaching staff, landing an experienced coach.

Per FootballScoop.com, Maxwell Thurmond is joining the Vols’ staff this spring:

Tennessee has added Maxwell ‘Max’ Thurmond to its staff as a senior offensive analyst.

In bringing aboard Thurmond, the Vols add a coach with deep collegiate experience at a variety of position groups and who also served as Jacksonville State’s interim head coach last fall after former Gamecocks coach John Grass was forced to resign.

Thurmond is a Georgia native. The Vols reportedly still have one analyst spot left offensively.
