Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXXII

[BruinVol]

They don't know. Neither do we really. Hoke could be coming or he could get offered a better position with another team tomorrow. If it was a sure thing a month ago I think they might have went ahead and made the move. I'm not 100% sold that a change is happening but if it does it will be a couple weeks (maybe longer) after signing day.

Agreed.

 

[BigZiti09]

Oh I agree but it's dirty. Having a noncoaching job isn't nearly the same as being a kids Position coach. I am all for doing this but let's not act like it isn't dirty.

Dirty? Idk man I mean I guess some might view it that way but this is big boy football. Gotta swim in the dirty water sometimes. Strip's job is to get the players and earn his paycheck right up until the day he leaves. Coaches don't typically announce their retirement and have a fairwell tour while they are on the road recruiting. As my boy Omar said "It's part of the game yo."

We aren't running a daycare.

I could see how some could view it as a little dirty but I don't oppose it.

Agreed. However if he really has known he was retiring since before the season was over like VQ has said it begs one to ask why not be honest and let Hoke be the one recruiting these kids.

Right. I'm not 100% sold on all of it.

Can't quote Omar Little without throwing in a pic....

Dude I just joined Gold's last week after about 5 years out of the gym. Have lost 30 lbs, looking to lose about 100 more.

You lost 30lbs in a week, or have you been controlling your diet for a little while now??

Either way, good job man.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I think we can all agree that Saban is running a clean program?

Lol that would be slightly unhealthy I imagine. I'm trying to gain 2 pounds a week at the moment

I like the idea of hoke and strip both on staff with the 10th assistant being added.

I think that 10th assistant would certainly be on defense so maybe it happens.

And if that is a legit possibility you don't rock the boat with recruits and it's not dirty to not tell them every change you are thinking of making.

Problem is that can't happen until after spring practice.

Mmmmmm... Bulking season. Love making strength gains

 

[Dust10]

They don't know. I saw a quote from butler last week saying how much he was looking forward to strip being his position coach.

I mean all they gotta do is read Volnation like Sab and Rucker does.

Move Strip to admin then move him back. NBD. However, I don't think they will do that. Look for someone to be full-time special teams coordinator.

I bulk year round! I hate cardio but do tons of it come spring and through summer. I am carrying a healthy 227 lbs right now. I am only 5'10" so I probably need to quit bulking up.

And not coach a position?


Remember Warren is already ST coach.

 

[BigZiti09]

What we need to add is an ace recruiter.

 

[TechnoVol]

My parents have been living on Stillwood for 25 years. I went to CH elementary and Overton.

That's something... I used to ride my bike from my house to Regent Field and cross Stillwood on my way. There was always a black dog that would chase me near that intersection. :scare:

 

[RockyTopInBham]

SIAP, but looks like they updated the Vols football roster today. EE's are in, graduates and NFL entrees are out.

Hoke fits that bill.

Wow. That is a great thread.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Harrogate TN. Just through the tunnel from M'boro.

Go through there all the time on my way home to God's country, and I go to M'boro about 2-3 times a week with clients.
