Maybe beast is insinuating that he may recruit a few, but in order to remain members of the team, they had better act right off the court.
And that's fine, but in past Tennessee experience it appears that tiger rarely changed his stripes. You think of the guys Pearl took chances on and most had a run in at some point.
I'm not sure what you expected him to say, that he didn't try and could care less where those guys go?
It's coach speak, the same things as saying he wouldn't recruit thugs or renegades, but watch the names getting ready to pop up on the radar.
Or the same way that he insinuated he wouldn't take any players from USM and would encourage all to stay committed.
There's nothing necessarily wrong with that, sometimes to win and win quickly you have to do some things you aren't proud of, but point is I wouldn't trust every word coming out of his mouth ATM.
Oh I agree, and I actually side with you on this. I was just trying to see from his side and determine what he may have been thinking.
Tyndall clearly stated that thugs and renegades will not be a part of his program (paraphrasing). He was either being disingenuous, or careful with exactly how he worded that phrase.
Right.
This is JMO, and not necessarily anything terribly wrong with this, but I've got a feeling he's a lot like Pearl in that regard. Don't trust a word the man says, because it's likely the complete opposite of what he says that's the truth.
He mentioned not having thugs and renegades, well I'm betting we're gonna see a few that would fall under that category pop up here soon. He said that he desperately wanted and needed all 4 signees, from my point of view that's not what played out. He made it sound both in his press conference and radio interviews he would do whatever he could to get the USM players into USM, and wouldn't try to bring any to Tennessee, that doesn't appear as truth to me so far.
As I've said, that's all fine, as long as you win. He has done so at every stop, so until he gives me a reason I won't doubt he will either, but JMO.
Looks like JUCO SG Kevin Punter will be visiting TN as soon as this weekend. Current Mizzou commit.

I listened to the interview and u can take what he said any way u wanted... I took it to mean he wasn't going to have a thug team but he may take some guys that aren't saints but they have to follow the rules too....he even said that he wasn't a saint either.
Right.

Yup VQ reporting it now too
Would be solid addition, so that's 2 names so far, although I'm not all that high on Minnie
