Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIX

[amazingGRACE]

Sumlin is better than Miles at this point. It's not 2011 anymore.

But given that my great aunt Helen from Kalamazoo could have ran a better search, I'd gladly take Les Miles now.

 

[HankHill]

Manziel was a 3 star btw

Something was off with Sumlin and A&M. Not so sure he was ever the right for there, may not be here either.
And maybe he knows what a control freak Hones was too if they are that close, and understands why he failed here.

 

[SpringBokVol]

Lol stop doing this

Take away great QBs from any coach their record drops. Especially ones they recruited and developed.

Take away Dobbs from Butch and what do you get???

How is sumlin better than Miles?

 

[The Breakerboy]

We wouldn’t be getting shut out by Georgia.

 

[volssam]

They lowball Sumlin, and he says no.

Haslem be like:

[unioncityvol]

Sumlin’s record is Butch 2.0 since Manziel left. Would only be on board if he could bring in Tee and Steele

He was in the West. He is better than butch

Do not want

I believe we just saw it this year

 

[ATC_VOL]

Sumlin is legit. 100%. Current players are excited about him too.

Would be very happy if true. Think he could be better here than at A&M. I have no reasoning for that though.

 

[WriterVol]

Same age. Both has beens past their primes. Both out of work and couldn't get a job after being fired by the school where they won a national title.

It's a fair comparison, but I'd take Miles. We've already got Fulmer.

Besides hiring the Mad Hatter might finally break that Louisiana Voodoo curse that's been following this program for almost 20 years.

Well keep holding your breath for Gruden then.

Lol it’s a joke. Relax.

He’s heard of that new touchdown thing.

 

[volswillrise12]

It sounds like the experience at A & M in the end got messy—-i would have called Sumlin before Doeren and probably Brohm. I fear the idiots in the administration may have torpedoed Sumlin because of the disaster this search has become.

 

[bignewt]

Dude just threw out Tebow's name on 104.5

Let's ride

I would literally set fire to something that needed insurance.

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Remember though, you’re comparing Butch/Dobbs to Sumlin with no Manziel.

When Butch had Dobbs and Sumlin had Manziel, Butch was a 9-4 guy and Sumlin was 11-2 in the West.

Butch without a QB was 4-8 and Sumlin has never been worse than 7-5.

Excellent post and take. Deserves to be quoted again.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I feel so bad for you guys. When Tennessee is rolling, it's a near religious experience.

I will never know that feeling again 😟

 

[volatil]

Ease up Hank. That’s a joke about Johnny Football and a 3*.


Nothing to do with Sumlin

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I’m getting excited about Sumlin. When are they announcing Steele?

Unemployed.

Truth

 

[InVOLuntary]

If you're gonna hire Miles just hire Fulmer.

Miles is much fresher than Fulmer plus FUlmer wouldn't take it if you gave it to him.

Poster on TOS about Currie from Kstate.

-No one who was around K State when Currie was there is at all surprised at how this is gone. Has been a joke around the program all week.
-Currie had a relationship problem with nearly every head coach in the AD, from swimming to women's basketball, to football, and was on much thinner ice for the last three years than people outside the KState bubble realize. Was a relief boosters when he was gone.
-Raised money. Improved facilities, but his relationship with Snyder was so bad he knew he needed to get out.
-Not at all surprised that Currie, given his inability to relate to people and to see the big picture in regard to things like Snyder's value to K-State, can close a deal and do the networking it takes to do a search on his own.
