Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLIX

[Nashvegas31]

I think they needed a black guy cause Tee isn’t a candidate and they are starting to take heat for it.

Sumlin isn’t really an option. Just like Gundy wasn’t. JMO.

Hard to disagree. I have a feeling some names are just teasers to give them excuse for hire a azzhole

 

[RockyTop85]

Last time it went this quiet was when they hired Shiano. I’m betting they’re about to roll out Mark Mangino. Literally.

How many folks think if Sumlin happened, he would, or could bring in an upgrade DC? Chavis is out to pasture. I will always appreciate him when he was in his prime at UT, the CHIEF, man when we had the guns on D, he could stick it to them, but he is too old for this day and age football.
How much do you think it would cost us to get Steele over here to DC with him?

Compiling stats is work.

Eh. It’s a living.

I’m sitting in my office next to a window as all my employees are leaving for the day. I need to put this here shade down so they don’t see my computer is on lock screen and I am on the old computer phone.

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

no one on plane watch? Any UT planes on the way to Houston/College Station?

 

[jordan4vols]

The National guys have been the ones right on this whole thing on offers etc. They say Sumlin is next up. I’ll go with them.

I think rolling him would be a more efficient way to transport him.

Might be the unfortunate truth, but I hope they legitimately go for him.

 

[Volwark]

Chavis might be passable, but they can't run the hurry up that Sumlin likes to run. If he insists on that, he'd have to bring another DC that's not Chavis.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Sumlin
Tee
Steele
Gillespie

Let’s go

 

[snowvols]

I don't care about the DC and who it is as long as theey are good. Maybe they could lure a Lacy Rodgers away from the NFL.

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Who is Sumlin's agent?

 

[volinbama256]

Sumlin
Tee
Steele
Gillespie

Let’s go

You forgot Les

You can't be a DC and be named Lacy... sorry.

Lets get jim bob cooter and Lacy Rodgers... that would be hilarious.

 

[tnmarktx]

Sumlin
Tee
Steele
Gillespie

Let’s go

No Tee. I don't want Sumlin have to call his own plays.

 

[CPVOL]

The Visor. That’s the missing link. We’ve not had a visor wearing coach since Kiff. See where I’m going???
Sign his ass tonight and let’s roll

Ha. Not sure why autocorrect would change Kacy to Lacy

Yeah, Ziti is usually spot on, but I think he is off here, why wouldn't he be a legit candidate? He'd be cheap.

 

[volsnvikes]

This better not be the case. I have noticed that as well, but if our university that acts so inclusive (which is a good thing) to privately discriminate for the hiring of the highest paid employee in the state, they should fire everyone from the president on down and start over.

Imagine if Dobbs was coached by Sumilin instead of Jones.

 

[drylo]

That’s positive from McMurphy. Man, I would love Sumlin at UT. I just think he’s a cool customer.

For all you Kiffin lovers out there, just think for a second about the relative maturity and leadership of a Sumlin vs. a Kiffin. That tells you all you need to know about why Kiffin is not and should not be an option.

 

[Vols4us]

Chavis might be passable, but they can't run the hurry up that Sumlin likes to run. If he insists on that, he'd have to bring another DC that's not Chavis.

This.

You don't want to put cuffs on Sumlin's O with a DC that cannot adjust on the fly to the tempo. Needs to be a younger guy that's gone against the uptempo a lot. Chavis has proven he cannot handle tempo well.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Who is Sumlin's agent?

Trace Armstrong. Butch’s previous agent.

 

[AAVFL]

I suspect they have slammed on the brakes to regroup. Plus they seen what giving out too much info gotta find that balance of giving out info and keeping info close to the vest.
