Sweeney grew up in a family of mechanics, as previously highlighted in her collaboration with Ford to highlight women in the automotive industry.

Titans Announce Newest Head Coach Brian Callahan
New Sheriff in Town
On Thursday, Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk and GM Ran Carthon publicly introduced the next head coach of the Tennessee Titans, Brian Callahan. Callahan has most recently been the offensive coordinator for the Bengals, helping orchestrate one of the NFL’s best offenses in that time.
He’s been in the NFL since 2010, working with the Broncos, Lions, and Raiders before landing in Cincinnati.
Callahan is a born football coach, the son of Bill Callahan, a legend in his own right in the NFL. Bill began his coaching career in 1980 at the college level, and minus a 4-year stretch from 2004-2007, he has been an NFL coach since 1995. Bill Callahan is currently the offensive line coach for the Cleveland Browns, and many expect him to possibly follow his son to Tennessee, a team that desperately needs help on the offensive line.
The hire has Titans fans buzzing, as Callahan is known as a great offensive mind, that is expected to help develop Will Levis into a star like he did with Joe Burrow in Cincinnati. Historically, the Titans have hired defensive coaches or coaches without a huge offensive emphasis. Now, with Callahan, many are saying this move brings the Titans “into the modern NFL era”.

Crazy Football Week Hits Nashville Hard
Mike Vrabel Fired
On Tuesday, the Titans took over national headlines, as controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk announced that she had fired head coach Mike Vrabel after 6 seasons with the team. Vrabel won 2 AFC South titles with the Titans, took them to the playoffs 3 straight years (2019-2021), and appeared in 1 AFC Championship Game. The decision by Strunk took most of the football world by surprise.
After firing GM Jon Robinson last year, Ran Carthon was brought in to fill the position, a move that reportedly caused internal strife between the top brass in the Titans organization. Carthon, Vrabel, and Strunk all downplayed the reports, however, details have continued to emerge in the recent days, signaling that there was some fire behind all of that smoke.
Whether that was ultimately the undoing of Vrabel’s tenure with the Titans, no one can say for sure. Going 6-18 in his last 24 games with the team undoubtedly made any internal issues worse.
The move has fans and media split, as to whether the Titans have made a big mistake, or cut their losses with a coach that has reportedly wanted out for months now.
All we can say for certain at this time, is that a new era of Titans football is coming. No more Ryan Tannehill, Derrick Henry, AJ Brown, Kevin Byard, and Mike Vrabel. Things are going to look a lot different for the two-tone blue in 2024 and beyond.
Nick Saban Retires
On Wednesday afternoon, another massive domino fell, as it was reported that longtime Alabama head coach Nick Saban would be retiring. Saban won 6 national titles with the Crimson Tide, in 17 seasons as the head coach. Saban is without question the greatest college head coach of all time, which leaves huge shoes to fill. As I write this, reports are swirling as to who will be tabbed with replacing the GOAT.
There is nothing concrete to say yet, except for one thing…everyone in Tennessee orange is jumping for joy this morning, knowing that their biggest foe is finally gone! Go Big Orange!

It’s Nico Time!
Monday at Noon CT, the #25 UT Vols take on #20 Iowa in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl in Orlando. Now, despite some Vols players opting out of the game, there is one very exciting reason to turn this game on.
Nico Iamaleava.
Don’t worry if you can’t pronounce his name yet, you’ll learn.
Monday will mark the 1st start for the former 5-star, true freshman QB who was the #1 player in his class a year ago.
On Wednesday, starting QB Joe Milton posted on Instagram that he would not be participating in the bowl game, in order to get ready for the NFL Draft, clearing the way for Nico to get some action.
Despite Tennessee missing some players on both sides of the ball, this game will serve as a great barometer for the Nico and the Vols heading into 2024. Iowa has one of the best defenses in college football, and a big stage like a nationally televised bowl game, is a great way to break in a young, exciting QB like Nico.
Kickoff is at Noon CT on ABC, New Year’s Day! Go Big Orange!
