What Danny White is looking for in next Tennessee baseball coach after Tony Vitello exit
Danny White is searching for the next Tennessee baseball coach at an uncommon time of year and in an unusual situation.
The totality of the situation following Tony Vitello vacating the post to become the manager of the San Francisco Giants has White taking a comprehensive look at the search.
“I’m going into this with open eyes,” White said.
White has made six hires at Tennessee, including for two of the most prominent programs. He’s now looking to fill one of the other most prominent positions on campus and replacing arguably the most popular Vols coach.
He has appointed pitching coach Frank Anderson as the interim coach and asked associate head coach Josh Elander to be a candidate for the position.
As he enters the search, White said he has “nothing specific” he is looking for in a candidate. He wants his first “data point” to come from talking to the leaders of the baseball team.
“I still want to hear their perspective, learn from that and then go into the process, but I don’t have anything particular in mind,” White said.
White’s search differs from his previous ones at Tennessee and is unique in its circumstances. Vitello’s departure is the first time an MLB franchise has hired a college baseball coach with no prior MLB experience. It also comes less than 18 months after the Vols won the national title, whereas his other coaching hires all followed necessary change.
Heupel’s six hires are football coach Josh Heupel, Lady Vols basketball coach Kim Caldwell, women’s soccer coach Joe Kirt, rowing coach Kim Cupini, cross country coach Justin Duncan and track and field coach Duane Ross.
The most consistent pattern in White’s hires stems from the choices of Heupel, Caldwell, Cupini and Ross. All four were winners lower levels and proved they could build high-level programs as head coaches.
Heupel was White’s first hire. He previously hired Heupel to coach at UCF then brought him to Tennessee shortly after he was named the athletics director. Heupel brought a big offense and questions about recruiting, but put the latter to rest at Tennessee.
Caldwell is White’s most notable choice since Heupel. White moved on from former coach Kellie Harper in April 2024 then quickly hired Caldwell. Caldwell had only one year of head coaching experience at the Division I level, but had won a national title at the Division II level and has been a high-level winner in her whole career. She brought an elite offensive system with her.
Kirt’s hiring perhaps most similar mirrors the baseball situation. He was an internal candidate after Brian Pensky dashed to Florida State. White went through the process but ultimately chose to appoint Kirt the coach instead of an outside hire.
Cupini was a proven program-builder. She built a successful program at San Diego then was a winner at SMU, where she was before she was hired at Tennessee. She won three AAC titles at SMU and the Mustangs to three consecutive NCAA Championship appearances.
Ross has a similar background, having led North Carolina A&T from 2012-22 and creating the program into a winner. He brought head coaching experience.
Duncan was a pivotal assistant at Oklahoma State, which fielded one of the nations best distance programs.

Everything Tennessee Football OLB Coach Levorn ‘Chop’ Harbin Said Ahead of Kentucky
Levorn Harbin addressed the media today ahead of Kentucky.
Well-known as Coach Chop, Harbin is the outside linebackers coach for Tennessee, and an instrumental presence in the recruiting scene. Harbin reflected back at the Alabama game, while moving forward.
Lack of Success Against Alabama
“Um, number one, I mean, Alabama got a great offensive line. (They) had a couple of guys that probably going to be first-round draft picks, but there’s some things that I can do better to help the guys out that I’m having to coach up this week and um the guys were in position a couple of times but didn’t finish like we would like to. We’ll clean that up this week and we’ll move on to being better than what we were last week.”
How Does Alabama Outcome Impact This Week’s Approach?
“I’m the same every week, but also, you got to go back and evaluate what you’re doing and maybe be a little bit more tedious about certain things. That’s what I have had to do this week. That’s what I and the guys also got to work on, the little things. I have to keep coaching it and for those guys, the biggest thing is just finishing. Finishing rushes and I got to coach that part up and teach them how to finish too. So, that’s on me. That’s not on them. That’s my job, and no, I don’t change from week to week. Wins or losses, I treat the same to be honest with you.”
Does Success Feed on Itself
“Every snap the guys go out there and think they are gonna win. That’s what you got to first put in their mind that they can’t win every rep. Last week, they were a little disappointed with the outcome of the production, but they also went back and watched the film, they saw where they could have been successful and they weren’t. So, it wasn’t like they were just so much better than us. Now, they did have some good plays, doing a great job with their sets and with their hands and we could have been a little bit moreviolent. They saw where they could have done a better job and been more productive. So, I mean, we’re not worried at all about moving forward.”
