Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIX

[New-Vols-Fan]

Oh man, I remember when Jimbo fisher wasn't even a top 3 choice of ours and we thought Petersen was seriously considering the job as well as Harbaugh

It's been too damn quiet. I think we're gonna get Sumlin.

Na team Haslam has figured it out. Keep it quiet so we can't show our ass til its too late. But Sumlin isn't connected to another athletic dept anymore so maybe we could talk to him on the DL.

I’m telling you. The national outlets have ran with this Sumlin interest more than any other candidate so far. Even the Gundy stuff didn’t have legs like this has.

 

[Vol8188]

Kevin Sumlin 86-43
Butch Jones 34-27


Not even in the same stratosphere. Next.

Butch Jones is 84-54 actually. Which is very comparable

Well now we sure aren't. Thanks for the jinx. Dadgummit.

 

[JAllen18]

I'm just utterly shocked by this whole thing. Strangest thing I've seen in all my years. The 30for30 will be amazing, hope I live to see it. Gotta be more to this story

I could see it play out, while UT was searching for a Coach. John Currie was seen having a drink, taking in the sun in the Bahamas.

.

Bravo!

 

[Lovesomebigorange]

Has Sumlin been forced upon Currie and Haslam by the boosters/Fulmer? Because it's so out of left field and obviously miles above who they were just trying to hire yesterday.. their power slipping some I hope? And Currie should have no part in this with Sumlin lock him in the closet!

Yeah I already admitted I screwed that one up.

But no, they're actually still in completely different stratospheres as actual football coaches.

Sumlim is not great but he's still an upgrade. Look at vs top 25

 

[millst987]

Sumlin would crush here

This isn’t the SEC West

 

[jordan4vols]

Hubbs on the radio. Really doesn’t know anything

You wouldn't feel completely outmatched on a coaching level in a big game. There are teenage Vol fans who have now idea what I'm saying right now.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Hubbs on the radio. Really doesn’t know anything

Great. Him and Jimmy are in the same boat.

 

[jordan4vols]

Second caller asks for George Quarles 🙄. Turned it off

 

[BigZiti09]

Nothing about this search makes any sense.

I bet he knows more than he would tell for free.

"Ey Jimmy, whatcha think about Coach Taylor from Dillon? Was watchin' a documentary on him and, whoo, that boy can coach some football. Kinda weird homelife though. Don't know why that was in the documentary."

 

[Sugaray13]

It's quiet... too quiet

Relax...we have already gone through all the bad coaches. Only ones left that we haven’t asked yet are good coaches.

 

[knoxswim890]

Haslam is old.

but still alive

 

[SpringBokVol]

All of a sudden we have gone radio silent

 

[bcmbvol]

Can we start a go fund me for Sumlin and close this deal ourselves?

 

[New-Vols-Fan]

Nothing about this search makes any sense.

Yep, I have absolutely no idea what is going on.

Logic and understanding has no place in Tennessee athletics. It is truly a circus act.

 

[Hammer85]

Cone of silence.

Eye of the storm.


Get ready for the STHTF again.

 

[JAllen18]

Sumlin underwhelmed every year at A&M without Manziel. We would run him outta town in 4 years with this record.
