Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIII

[Kingston Vol]

IMO no way Tee Martin could tell JG no. Come back to your alma mater, continue to learn under Gruden and essentially the unofficial coach in waiting when that time comes.

He's not coming back here for anything less than the head coaching position.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

i vote for bass. He's brought the best grumor i've read in all my time on this board! In fact i take it as the gruth!

👀👀👀👀

Cole Cubelic just said better chance that Gruden goes to UT than Chip goes to UF.

 

[Tri-CitiesVol]

Take this for what it's worth, I have never known anyone in the AD nor do I know anyone connected to the AD. I do however have a good friend that I currently work with that had a Grumor today. His brother works for Pilot and has some pretty connected friends. He was telling us that he knows Haslams pilots and they had said they have been flying JG around lately.

My father is a corporate pilot in East Tennessee. I'll have him reach out to contacts to see if it's really true.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Chip Kelly is not going to Florida. He is applying pressure to UCLA to force them into firing Mora.

Frost is Florida's coach.

 

[drylo]

Florida AD shutting down Chip to UF talk. Said that there's always misinformation but this is on a whole other level.

Uh oh. They got him.

 

[Skizer41]

Did I break this story? I think, at least in part, I did.

#Grumor

Did you send it to volnuggs? Go big brother!

Note: if you do can you take a screen shot? I hate to admit this but I've been blocked by volnugs haha

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Florida AD mocks 'report' that Chip Kelly to Gators is 'done deal'

In fairness, that could be interpreted in multiple ways. The message in question said a "certain former AD" was standing in the way of hiring Kelly and that he [Foley, obviously] wanted Strong. Stricklin could just as easily have been dispelling that piece of information only, not dismissing the Kelly rumors entirely.

Olevol cited a previously unblocked pilot plane just went private last week.

Someone go to flightaware and search N715CB and post a screenshot of what it shows.

Do you remember just a few days ago it was stackable? It's shut down for a reason. Just know good things are coming. Good night!

BS is has been trackable just last week. And I know why it has been shut down

You do realize that is the Haslam Jet for the Cleveland browns right? Don't you think it's kinda funny it hasn't flown. Trust me it has flown!

:lolabove: That head start and nontolerance of losing tho! And I’m of the opinion that Norvell could end up a good to great hire...but not that groundbreaking healing HOMERUN. Their last two hires haven’t worked out...same as ours. Time to get over the BVS inspired inferiority complex. They don’t have their **** together, people!

 

[NMVol]

A hire of Gruden would have the overtones of the Majors hire as a salvation of the program. This shadow is there for him. He worries about his standing if he loses and still wants to make his home in East Tennessee. There's a feel of destiny. It might be a heavy cloak. Tennessee needs a coach who is up to embracing greatness. It does not need to be done perfectly. It does not need to be done without trials and tribulations. It does not need to be done without setbacks. It simply needs to be done. What a golden moment.

Lol. No I didn’t. I don’t have twitter.

I was driving down the road when I called my dad and he told me that story. I pulled over to post it on VN! My first Grumor

Have him check nc715cb

2 SEC championships in 3 years must be soooo hard :cray:

 

[gordonr24]

What do you do with Hoke if he wins out the regular season and a bowl game?

Keep him on staff at most. Nothing more

 

[kw3953]

Why?

People think Gruden can just flash his ring or walk in the door and the Vols are gonna bring in top 2 classes. There’s a lot more to it than that.

I thought you mentioned Tenn recruits itself tho. Combine that with Gruden, fish will be jumping into the boat.

On a serious note, I agree more effort is needed to recruit to Tenn. UT in no way recruits itself. Gruden’s name and persona will do wonders however IMO.

 

[VolBalla2014]

What if Gruden brought Warren Sapp as dline coach?

Eating cheeseburgers and coaching!

Sapp never wants to coach. Nice to fantasize but ain't happening

I wish I could give this more likes.

I believe Pilot Corporation has two Falcon 50s and at least two Lear 45s. You'd think such a large company would have a better flight department. I'll let you guys know when he gets back to me.

Tennessee does recruit itself. Just look at our level of coaching/record the last decade and how well we still recruit on a year to year basis.

Gruden still has to work to recruit. People acting like it’s a foregone conclusion he would get anyone he wants and top 2 classes by simply flashing his SB ring are setting themselves up for disappointment. Recruiting is much more than that.

Kept him warm when he was fired FOR CAUSE. In your revisionist Catbone way are you saying Mac was a success? :lol:

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

There's so much smoke

Gruden: "sometimes you have to make a move that may surprise people."
