Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Atlanta Vol implied yesterday it was not Chaney, maybe the USCe OC (McClendon)

But why wait, and why no interviews.

 

[DD4ME]

In Butchna and InVOL camp on Chaney and have been since I heard about his current contract situation. My take remains that Chaney has no desire to be a HC and has no problems with relocating to Knoxville. If he is willing to walk from Pittman, he can get a new 3 year deal with a strong pay bump to come back to where he never wanted to leave - until Butch decided not to hire him into the "best staff in America". He seems to always fit in well with the staffs he has worked with in the past. If you were going to fight to retain him (UGA), you would have already done so with an extension IMO. Taking away QB coach responsibilities was an insult when he had just developed a true freshman QB well enough to play for the NC after winning the SECCG. Also fits AV posts.

Agree on the second half play calling issues in big, contested games. CJP will need to override his tendency to get pass happy and go away from the run game. But his system works well and has the ability to control clock or speed up as necessary. If Enos ends up being the man I will be equally happy - good coach.

Go big or go home. No wannabes, please.

You have to assume AV is dead wrong or was intentionally misleading us, or was intentionally misleading himself. I would tend not to believe that.

So Price, Hubbs, Simonton, and the rest are wrong regatding these interviews with 3 candidates on Friday? Mathews right all along? Smokescreen? Doubtful. I am going to stick with the VQ guys.

Lol. VQ.

On Friday...." Vols in a good spot with Khafre Brown"

2 days later....commits to UNC.

I honestly don't trust any one with the search.....everyone is clueless.

 

[BruinVol]

Enos could still be announced and coach just like Pruitt did if it were him.

.

As I have pointed out to this board countless times Sherrer WAS NOT announced until his season was over

How’d HE “imply” that? With a like? You like a post stating that it’s not Chaney and you might be saying “not so fast!”

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

I just read where Tee was getting heavy interest from Austin Peay for their HC and he declined to even talk to them ....lol...this dude really thinks his s*** don't stink.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Lol. VQ.

$9.99

 

[BruinVol]

Hot take

Pruitt promised Saban no leaks and isn't going to allow the enos news to leak like it did with Sherrer

 

[Power T-Rev]

I just read where Tee was getting heavy interest from Austin Peay for their HC and he declined to even talk to them ....lol...this dude really thinks his s*** don't stink.

Over-inflated opinion of himself

 

[DD4ME]

Butchna made a good point in the FF imo. Enos is the only one that still connects all dots without a lot of conjecture or suspension of reality.

In the college ranks Enos is the only one coaching for anything at stake...unless UCF repeats as self declared NC’s. Name you didn’t list was Chaney. I’m beginning to think there’s an agreement in place that won’t be announced until after early signing day due to recruiting. Would fit both Atlanta Vol’s and Matthews hints.

I know I've learned the hard way that pride comes before the fall.

Ain’t a single studio worth a **** in Clarksville!

- Mrs Tee prolly.

Among college coaches sure, but this would hold true for nfl guys too imo

 

[DD4ME]

My only concern with Enos is a last minute flip that leaves us scrambling.

 

[volinbama256]

maybe if our OC likes to pass, we may be able to keep Callaway and JJ from declaring...

She could live in Nashville

I don’t think we could have an agreement with him until Saban decides who’s getting that job.

 

[DD4ME]

Maybe but there's no smoke at all for that, and knowing Pruitt's penchant to work with guys he knows it makes so little sense.

 

[m1al]

But why wait, and why no interviews.

Another reason one might wait is this. These coaches know each other, some very well and are good friends. If it doesn't do harm to Pruitt's recruiting class (which I argue is priority one right now) he might hold that info out of respect to a former colleague and friend..

Edit: As painful is it may be for some of you to hear, Pruitt's main priority right now is NOT to keep VolNation informed..

 

[volinbama256]

Yeah, he's gonna blink and find himself lost in the shuffle soon...

 

[BJSforVols]

WR coach at a power 5 school is a better job than the HC at Austin Peay

 

[DD4ME]

Propst....the other candidate that would make sense to wait on, but would simultaneously send us in a collective panic.

It could be used for negative recruiting, but you like him and want him to coach for you. You slow play all these guys until we are all just desperate for anyone and then announce him.

 

[DD4ME]

WR coach at a power 5 school is a better job than the HC at Austin Peay

Sure.

 

[BJSforVols]

Sure.

Yes. Pay included.

Matthews is very conservative with his takes. Even more so than Hubbs. He will always phrase a take as “his opinion” or “in my experience”. So for him to say it’s done, means it’s done OR he was straight up lied to by whoever told him that. If true, and Briles interviews with FSU today, we know he’s out.

Personally, I don’t know why this has been such a secretive process. Im starting to think Pruitt is a complete hiring idiot and Fulmer is having to hold his hand through it all or he parlays as a part time CIA operative and has mastered the skill of misdirection.

Why should any hiring process be public?
