Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[HankHill]

Hank knows about as much as anyone right now (he doesn’t know sh**)

So you think we have our guy? And are just waiting why

 

[kw3953]

I’d be mildly surprised if he had laser beams. They don’t make them like they used to.

 

[ob79]

@volatil .... the wife is going back to school for her NP, likely at Carson Newman (completely online is her preference).

Question...how much stress should I expect for the next 2.5 years?

And FWIW, I know that I was stressed when I went through my masters but, let's be honest, it wasn't an NP program.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Well sounds like you’ve heard who it isn’t going to be, have you heard anything about who it is going to be?

He heard it's going to be Freeze.

 

[Catbone]

Tomorrow.

Ill tempered Sea Bass it is!

 

[Rishvol]

Ok, I'll admit, had to Google that one. Did you get a "word of the day" calender for Christmas?

Learned it in middle school. Probably the only thing I learned in middle school.

 

[avolation]

He's been a little more specific than that. Said they had their guy.

Maybe he should have continued by saying the guy just doesn’t know it yet.

There are a lot of searches out there that you can wonder why wait as well not just TN. Oklahoma has been without a DC since mid season. Bama still hasn't officially announced Enos and Enos dodged those questions yesterday when asked about a promotion. That Enos/Bama on non announcement is oddest one of them all

Media jumped the gun on Enos?

 

[INKYBERRYVOL]

VN be like this trying to burn off energy/ angst about this OC search....

 

[Nashvegas31]

Media jumped the gun on Enos?

Probably not. It could just be waiting until Locksley is officially no longer calling plays. Just seems odd as that is seems like it wouldn't be any issue at all to just name him now. Saban has his reasons I guess. Pruitt seems to be similar in he never really announced a lot of hires until they were already working for a while

 

[LA Vol]

Bama's delay could be related to Gattis.

I’m not Volatil, but my wife is an NP. She graduated with her masters 9 years ago. She was stressed to the max. Hope you have some hobbies lol

 

[INKYBERRYVOL]

Tomorrow.

Hasta mañana.

Yeeaaah. I figured. She's a perfectionist, was valedictorian in high school, graduated with like a 3.7+ GPA (I did too but, my degrees are in Criminal Justice--not that hard), and said that she nearly cried when she made a B in her Junior year--first time she'd ever made one.

She's my rock and fully supported me when I completed my degrees in the last decade. I'm 100% supportive...just...wondering how much stress I should expect.

 

[engineerVOL]

Just thought I’d bump this from December 5th

So clairvoyant.

 

[ob79]

Just thought I’d bump this from December 5th

Thought the same thing when his name popped up.

Never, ever need to speak with another Okie State coach, ever, ever, ever again.

Cal receiver Vic Wharton III to miss 2018 Cheez-It Bowl

Noticed he was missing last night, so I looked up what happened.

Quitter

 

[reVOLution33]

No, would be a lie if they didn’t have him all along.

They could have had a specific list and he was told that they will hire someone from that list. Which would technically mean they had their man all along.

 

[MrVolton]

Me too. Most people don’t leave NFL jobs for college jobs. They are much better for quality of life and pay.

Peteino, Shottenheimer, Saban, Harbaugh are just a few I can think of off the top of my head that opted for college jobs over NFL opportunities in recent years. Not saying that Sark or Kitchens will choose us or anything, I just don’t think you can count any candidate out just because they may have NFL opportunities as well.

 

[BeecherVol]

And this is where we disagree. You can have blind faith in first time AD and HC but I’ll choose to go with not only our allotment of distinguished and connected media but any potential candidates staff, circle, media, agent etc.... Nothing has been going on with the search. If they were...SOMEONE would have a peep about it.

Freeze was the guy, it got the boot. Briles wasn’t a fit and yurcich rejected our offer. That’s it so far.

When and what did we offer Yurcich?

All head coaching gigs, not OC, except for Shott who did one year at Georgia before going right back to the NFL.
