Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[chargervol]

In case anyone was wondering I prefer a medium pace.

I was getting around to asking you, but you moved too quickly.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I love the crocodile tears of Shiatno supporters. If he was worth a squirt OSU would have elevated him. I guess they're scared shiteless of what we might think of them if they did. Talk about hypocrites.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Listen, I think Hubbs is a good guy, dont have anything at all against him, just think it's funny this board will trash guys like Brice for their connections to the program when Hubbs and Co are just as hit or miss. No one, I mean no one has been correct on anything regarding this search so far. So.. theres that.

 

[Smokey123]

Hubbs was following the rumor mill that day. He was not reporting “from sources” that Curry was interviewing Gruden

Why was he chasing planes if he knew he wasn’t on there in the first place

 

[HankHill]

Brice is still connected with several people in the Athletc Dept

Brice was the first media person to really say briles was a candidate if I’m not mistaken.

 

[engineerVOL]

Press conference, yes. But no one knew who exactly for who. Which is why i said “calling my shot freeze tomorrow”.

Are you saying they were prepping for a press conference?

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Due diligence? It was 20 minute drive. Was hilarious though

Absolutley hilarious.

 

[HankHill]

Are you saying they were prepping for a press conference?

Not a full fledge press conference. Just say “on stand by”.

Jobs offers are pouring in to him as we speak...

Volman365 nailed it but some stuff changed on the ground and things got sideways.

How confident are you that a Briles hire is likely?

 

[revjayp]

Your buddy has been catfished. That ain’t Brice

Ok.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Why was he chasing planes if he knew he wasn’t on there in the first place

I’m pretty sure I answered that in the post you quoted

 

[revjayp]

Brice was the first media person to really say briles was a candidate if I’m not mistaken.

He was. Like I posted earlier, I saw that list 2 days ago and didn’t post anything because it looked so “left field” to me.

 

[chargervol]

Haha, how did this become Brice versus Hubbs so quickly?
I think Hubbs has the overall better record, but mostly because he states things as an opinion, not as fact.
Everybody's wrong at times and some do rumors more often than others.

 

[Smokey123]

I’m pretty sure I answered that in the post you quoted

Yes because Hubbs is totally the type of person to show up at airports bcuz of a rumor... he clearly thought there was a chance he was on the plane

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

I thought this tweet by Ubben sums it up nicely. He hasn't really claimed specifics of what's going but at least a he hasn't made himself look like an idiot throwing out info either.

Yep, hard to be wrong when you never speak in absolutes. "He may visit...he may not. We'll see. Gotta like the Vols chances if he shows up...but if he doesnt, well, that tells you all you need to know, unless he changes his mind, which isnt out of the question. Who knows."

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Okay. He’s also not out there writing that he can confirm that Currie is in Tampa interviewing Gruden which was complete garbage

 

[SandoVOL]

Saying things are blatantly false implies that he thinks he knows something, which he doesn't. Plus the Athletic is garbage. Strictly IMO.

 

[orangesoda]

Press conference, yes. But no one knew who exactly for who. Which is why i said “calling my shot freeze tomorrow”.

Who nixed the deal?

 

[Jimmy Football]

Press conference, yes. But no one knew who exactly for who. Which is why i said “calling my shot freeze tomorrow”.

So maybe Brice was right? Wonder who nixed that deal?

 

[HankHill]

How confident are you that a Briles hire is likely?

I know fulmer and Art Briles are very good friends and for it to even get this far, i think Fulmer probably spoke with Art to get a better understanding of KBs roll in the Baylor stuff. I’m also pretty sure cutcliffe is very close with the briles family too.

So i would think there is a very good shot. I’m told briles is supposed to be on campus tomorrow. Don’t know if that’s 100%, could be interviewing somewhere else. I still don’t think Enos is really in the mix. So i would set the odds at KB being the favorite right now probably with Ok St guy being a pretty far off 2nd.

 

[SLICKYINC]

I need some more of them #brumors

 

[Smokey123]

Okay. He’s also not out there writing that he can confirm that Currie is in Tampa interviewing Gruden which was complete garbage

Didn’t say other wise
