Rumor already on VQ @drvenner that Pruitt is meeting with Sark in Atlanta today.

Nice find, @Bassmaster_Vol. @drvenner will be pleased that you tagged him.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

No clue. Trying to find a low key bar in Glendale near my hotel that may have a decent beer selection.

Ground control. You’re welcome

 

[StoVol]

Staying in.

Truth. That’s why I’m having people over at my house. Don’t have to go anywhere

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Are you going to go to the WM open? That looks like a load of fun, If I lived in Pheonix, I'd definitely be there.

What about you @drvenner

 

[Jimmy Football]

@drvenner look.

I think we can legit get @drvenner 847 tags. This is VolNation, d**n it. We are up to the challenge.

I would love to be at 17 just once on a Saturday though..that is probably the most fun that can be had at a PGA event. I used to love going to whatever it is they call the Tampa tournament (valspar maybe?) now at the Copperhead course.

How about you @drvenner

 

[StoVol]

Wont*, ya dingus.

And y'all need to leave @drvenner alone.

I was thinking about that, something was telling me to spell it wont but I didnt listen to my first instinct

 

[vol81]

I think our coach has purposefully slow played this oc search to find the best fit rather than make the quick hire many wanted. Yes this approach may have cost us a candidate or two but it also opened other doors. The hire will be made and leaked in the next 48 hours imho.

Folly beach flip flop drop tonight......

 

[i2amavol]

so...Should know something about 8:00 tonight?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If its cutty sark we got bigger problems than givin you mad props.

Welp..then it's gonna be your turn to be the hated negavol if it happens. C'mon man the guy is not stupid, he is a good OC. I know you want the shiny new guy, but I do think Osovet will get his chance...just be patient. I want a guy that can be a little versatile not a pure system guy.

What do you think @drvenner

 

[NashVolDavis]

I'm teachable. My original position is that I didn't want him because he's been bad in Atlanta. Admittedly, I don't watch the falcons very much and was just parroting what everyone around me says (I live in Atlanta). They wanted him gone. I also remembered the Bama fans complaining about him after they lost to Clemson.

But the guys on here told me about his numbers with the falcons, which are actually very good in spite of his OL being injured and terrible and losing his starting RB. They also pointed to the points he put up as an OC at Washington and USC.

So he's a lot better than I realized. I also think he checks a lot of boxes. He has experience at a high level and so I feel that he is someone that Pruitt could trust to basically be the head coach of the offense. He's someone with enough experience who could probably put his foot down as well, if necessary. I think Pruitt needs someone like that. He's also someone with HC experience who could help Pruitt in many areas. He's also known to be a very good recruiter. So for these reasons I think he would be an excellent hire.

While I like the idea of Yurcich if he indeed came here and was allowed to do his thing, I think that a lot can be said for simply hiring a guy with experience who you can trust to run the show. That's exactly what Kirby did with Cheney. Cheney isn't one of the young up and coming, high flying offense guys. He's just a good play caller with a lot of experience. Sark could be a better version of Cheney here.

Those quotes from Gundy about his guys not working long hours and stuff makes me wonder about Yurcich’s compatibility with Pruitt. Sark has familiarity with the “Saban-level” demand that Pruitt apparently puts on his staff. Plus, Sark is a way better (or at least more proven) recruiter than Yurcich, and he knows how to recruit in the SEC. Jimmy’s and joes... He wouldn’t have gotten an NFL job if he couldn’t call plays, so he’s definitely capable, and offensive playcalling rarely decides SEC games. It’s different out west where everyone’s the same size and speed/scheme rules, but it doesn’t translate. Just look at OU vs Bama. If we’re gonna compete for SEC titles it’s about recruiting and weight room first and foremost. I say hire Sark; put him on the trail and let’s round out this class.
