Shoop confirmed on campus

Shoop has downed three big gulps and a tray of bings at OCI, now headed to the athletic center to meet with Butch.
 
Wiki editors might not understand:

Bob Shoop (born August 18, 1966) is all VOL. Shoop served as the head football coach at Columbia University from 2003 to 2005.
 
This has been said a few times the last 48 hours..............who has he recruited this year?

From Rivals:

The list of prospects Thigpen was involved in recruiting is one of the most impressive lists ever compiled by a Rivals.com National Recruiter of the Year when you consider the things he had to overcome. He not only landed two five-star prospects in wide receiver Josh Malone and running back Jalen Hurd, he also landed four stars in defensive end Derek Barnett, linebacker Dillon Bates, defensive back Evan Berry, offensive lineman Dontavius Blair, defensive back Rashaan Gaulden, defensive back Cortez McDowell, defensive back D'Andre Payne, defensive tackle Michael Sawyers and linebacker Chris Weatherd (where he was secondary recruiter). Throw in three stars in athlete Elliot Berry, linebacker Gavin Bryant, athlete Neiko Creamer, linebacker Jakob Johnson, defensive back Emmanuel Moseley and defensive tackle Jashon Robertson, and you have one of the biggest hauls for one recruiter in Rivals.com history. - See more at: https://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1607994#sthash.HsMqpvsu.dpuf

It's a "what have you done for me lately" society, no one cares about 2 cycles ago anymore.

OCI......closed. But the owner opened up Goal Post Tavern up the strip and still sells cheeses bings! :good!:
 
I said this in the now vacated thread ....

I'm almost as excited about getting Shoop as I am about the thought of how much this will piss off James Franklin .

Recruiting resets every year
 
Just for those who keep thinking Shoop isn't a awesome DC,Auburn and LSU believe that he is and he turned both if those places down.
 
You mean they are actually going to make a home run hire? I would believe it if it weren't Fingers and VFL saying it. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to hear something official. Volnation owes my employer some compensation for my lost productivity today.

I'm trying to get this book finished and to my agent before I miss my deadline and I told her I wasn't going to be productive today. When I told her why, she was like, "Football? Seriously? Come on, Celina--why would football distract you?"

I was so horrified I almost fired her. Then I remembered she was born in Australia and cut her some slack. So I'm taking her to a game in Neyland next fall, so she won't ask any more silly questions.

You've gotta believe that's because he knows both coaches are on the hot seat and that he wouldn't want to move again in a year. Right?

This is what Franklin wants. He's trying to put a mole into our program...

The poster asked who Thig has recruited in the past two years. Most of those signed in Feb '14 class and showed up between spring and fall camps of that year which, as fate would have it, falls within the last two years. Didnt look at the 15 class. You can do that if you wish.

Half my office is on pins and needless waiting to hear something so at least I'm in good company. My boss comes by every hour or so and asks what "my Tennessee board" is saying. It's pretty funny actually.
