Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Helton, take it. You just stunk it up in the SEC and was offered a head coaching job.

Yea seriously. You just had a bad year as an OC, what you did at USC is basically looking like fools gold now Darnold is gone, and you’re getting offered a head job. Take it while your luck is good.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

How are the strip clubs in Knoxville, asking for a friend

 

[HankHill]

With Will Grier leaving it might be time for Jake Spavital to start looking.

If that happened we could possibly win the east next year. He’s the best OC and QB coach in CFb

 

[KPT_VFL]

Hire Freeze and just monitor that phone

If we hired freeze we would have every recruiter we despised just a few years ago. Pruitt, Freeze, just need Dabo to accept a GA position and we’re gold.

 

[Orange Studs]

SOB not sure how I missed that. I always associated him with crazy good OLs and run games at Wisky and Arky. Didn't know he was D.C. Before that.

Oh man you got Bassized. lol

 

[PYSCHO]

I hate UGA with a passion. really hope they lose next weekend.

They will

 

[volatil]

I know he did something really bad but can't remember what it was. Mind refreshing me.

It would be a tough pull wouldn't it? To come from WV to UT in the shape we are in?

We just lost to Vandy again and youre talking the East, calm down lets not be the second worst school in the conference first

 

[volatil]

Phil Fulmer first ever AD/OC

 

[McGeesPub]

I think Pruitt is going to have to cave a little on his “strictly pro style offense” mantra. Just look at what Bama has done with Hurts and Tua the past 3 years. It doesn’t have to be all the time but definitely having that element keeps defenses on their toes.

I used to think that style of offense was the way to go, if you’re talking about the traditional definition. Not anymore. It’s inefficient as hell.

Awww yes ok thanks volatil !

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

DWA doing the same as Gooden now

He’s a game changer. Look at his track record.

 

[greazy1722]

Agreed. I like BJ too and still hope he can contribute here. But if he hasn’t bought into CJP and the new staff then it would best for all sides if he moves on.

Brandon has done everything that coach ask of him to do..He is not a head case..Good Character kid..

 

[HankHill]

He doesn’t even make 600k. If we paid him what Helton makes we are doubling his salary. He’s worth every penny of that. I would pay him 1.5 and not think twice about it.

We need an OC that can shape a QB please. We need a good in the worse way.

Ain’t gonna happen. 100% chance Pruitt hires someone he can control IMO

600k ? seriously? 1 mil would sure be attractive to him.

Damn who does that sound like

 

[revjayp]

Since the night Kiffin bolted, I’ve read and anticipated that our administration would hire the best coach or our coach would hire the best assistant coach available only to be let down by the mediocre, milk toast, drab, boring buddy system. All of these great names come up for HCs, OCs and DCs yet we always end up with a watered down version of who we really want. But, like usual, hope springs eternal and I’m believing for the best.

 

[Wickman]

Derek Dooley for OC

*ducks for cover*

 

[mr.checkerboards]

He’s a game changer. Look at his track record.

I'm not saying he isn't, but I know what we have watched for 2 years in a row. No coordinator is taking this roster from 4 wins to 5 wins to 10 or 11 with a win over Bama or Georgia

 

[Vols4us]

We do enjoy our speculation on hiring coaches in here.

^^This. Also, there just aren't that many pro-style only OCs left in college. There are plenty of different offenses that mix in elements from but and sticking to pro-style only would severely limit the candidate pool.
