Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLI

[LaagerVol]

I'm so over all this teenage high school girl coach drama. I just want to watch a well coached team win some football games on Saturdays without all the extra bs. Is that too much to ask?

🤔

Haslam?

Sounds like he didn't get what he wanted regarding the outsourcing thing today. Who knows what is going on with the big wigs behind closed doors.

If we strike out on Mullen/Gruden/Frost... and we're looking for offense, I might give Dino Babers a long look.

I'm curious to see what he could accomplish with our resources.

He's fearless and would score lots of points here. Feels like he's gonna get a bigger job eventually.

Too old for not having a big job yet. I don't mean to discrimate for age, but that would concern me.

I dunno guys I think something is going down. Twitter is blowing up

It’s not the right guys though. If one of the normal, reliable ones would get behind the story it would be a lot easier for me to believe.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Wouldn't the 'main guy' be Currie?

Currie is merely a pawn for big jim.

 

[BigZiti09]

From the article:

He missed assignments and often appeared unaware that the ball was even snapped.

Two things.

Our o line miss assignments like it’s part of the job to do so.

Second, they link video but don’t link any video where he is unaware the ball is snapped. Now wouldn’t that be what you link for your video instead of 63 getting beat on a pass rush. If there was a play where the ball is snapped and he doesn’t know it can someone share?

He was beaten often by outside rush and seemed to be slow off the line (moreso than normal). Also lined up off the line of scrimmage once so there is a bit of circumstantial evidence

What do I have to do to get Big Jim to yield?

That's it, y'all. I'm gonna have to seduce him. Wish me luck.

HE also wasn’t seen at practice today and this is the first week all season he hasn’t been available to media

Here is the Trey Wallace article regarding Kendrick and the concussion protocol.

Source: Butch Jones, Tennessee, played player with concussion in loss to Kentucky

Article throws out some lazers.

Honest question, blowing up by any legitimate names or just the Fox/Kress/Popcorn Twitter?

I agree videos don't support it. I have no idea how much this kind of issue goes on either. Did he lie to coaches and realize effects later. Did not look lost in those clips provided.

Looks like every Vol starting offensive tackle since 2014.

The coaches wouldn't have the call. It would be on the trainers and team doctors. Zero shot it was a decision made by Jones for him to pay after being ruled out by trainers IMO

And one two decades before down in the Swamp.

That’s the other thing.

Supposedly his mom already shot it down as well.

This was the quote when the Hurd situation was questioned.

“All I can tell you is we have concussion protocol in place here administered by our trainers and our team doctors and we are not involved as coaches with that process,” Jones said. “We have strict guidelines that are in place that they administer.”

There does seem to be a lot of it. Kress and crew are really pushing it but they are not the only ones.

 

[scvolfan7]

Wow if proven true that article is a bombshell. Jones should be ashamed of himself if he knowingly played someone with a serious head injury

 

[Catbone]

Something smells fishy and it's not my gf... 🤔

 

[BigZiti09]

3:30 today twitter was really blowing up too.

Constant cycle of this until CBJ is fired.

Thanks


He easily could have played with a concussion but the only people at fault would be the medical folks imo

Doubt he did.
