Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Except this isn't coming from TN side yet. Just ok st side and they didn't have guts to put it as a headline just snuck it in the bottom of an article. If you were pretty positive he was officially offered wouldnt that be your headline?

I didn’t read the article are they reporting he’s been offered a job or a contract. There is a big difference. He was offered the job a week ago. Idk if he’s offered a contract. Bc if he’s being offered a contracted he’s accepted the job.

 

[HankHill]

I don’t know if this is true but gave you a like for the simple, declarative reply!

10000% false

 

[RikidyBones]

They play their bowl game tomorrow. if its him, we find out after that from our media.

 

[smokeyz1]

Most likely a story floated by his agent to get a higher offer from OSU.

 

[Kingston Vol]

I think people believe Helton didn’t have full control and that might have been so, but I would error on the side that, that was because he was extremely inexperienced as an OC.

You don’t have to worry about that with Yurcich he is proven and you can kinda let the reigns go.

I'm pretty confident he didn't have full control.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

Exactly. No one gets offered a contract until they have accepted.

Usually the case, but we offered Kelly, right?

 

[butchna]

I mean... it technically did. He got the Tennessee job. Lol.

Had a version of this argument in a Yurcich thread. He doesn’t have a HC job and never officially GOT the UT job. Thanks Beverly!

 

[HankHill]

A contract? Not to my knowledge.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

I don’t. Not with Marriotta, Casey and Ryan all out. Should’ve handled their business against Buffalo and Miami.

Buffalo in particular. Colts and Texans are just a better teams, right now.

 

[BJSforVols]

The fact that it’s coming out now makes me believe he’s already accepted it. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be hearing anything at this point from either side. The timing just doesn’t make sense considering they met 2 weeks ago

Hmmmm! Makes you think Doug Matthews did actually know what he was speaking. (No surprise for many of us though.)

 

[engineerVOL]

@nicksjuzunk comes to America, we offer an OC. Coicidence?

 

[BJSforVols]

So...does anyone have faith in Titans tonight?

Mariotta is out, so I’m going with a big no.

 

[SamRebel35]

I mean... it technically did. He got the Tennessee job. Lol.

Offered to him by an absolute incompetent administration with a Haslam calling the shots, who has been a Schiano jock sniffer for over a decade. Being offered a job by people who almost always make horrible decisions isn't exactly a feather in your cap, imo.

They really are. Hate to say it, but Marcus just doesn’t seem durable enough to be a franchise QB.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

A contract? Not to my knowledge.

We put out feelers/hypothetical with his agent, and we're told a definite no.

 

[Sleegro]

Yeppers.

Well if he takes that job it's not because he'll have full control. Basically he'll be 1 of 3 OC's and the one who's the newest to the program. And the least likely to get any credit for anything.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

They really are. Hate to say it, but Marcus just doesn’t seem durable enough to be a franchise QB.

Time for Nick Foles.

 

[HankHill]

We put out feelers/hypothetical with his agent, and we're told a definite no.

Oh yea. The job was his if he wanted it. He didn’t want to be in the SEC.

 

[TennGentry]

McNair would have played. Marcus is soft.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

That is probably where we are at with Yurcich, too.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Confused.... Where are we with Yurcich based on the article? Putting out feelers or offered a contract because he has accepted?

 

[InVOLuntary]

I use a 2-2-1 method when I smoke ribs. Meaning do 2 hrs without foil and telegenic two hrs inside of foil and then the last hr out of foil. The meat will be falling off of the bones.

I do the 2-1-2 method. I like a little tug on my ribs.

They say we’ve offered him the job. What it doesn’t get into is if they think he’ll accept - and instead the article seems to mostly be about the new Ohio State links.

 

[HankHill]

It’s been his for a while now.

 

[SweetasSoda]

But some were posting that if they were saying we offered then he had to accepted then someone else said it just meant we were putting out feelers. I don't have a clue which could possibly be true.
