Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Jack Burton]

Bama OC wide open and Enos and Gattis both leave for other jobs. I know it’s been said, but that’s a huge deal. Somethings going on there

I have it on good authority the NCAA is sniffing around and ready to bring the banhammer forth for destruction.

Another example that Fulmer and Pruitt are building something big right now. Our safeties coach just turned down a DC job at a power 5 school. And his name was also mentioned by Bama247 mods as a possible Tosh replacement. But he’s choosing to stay in Knoxville. Big news.

Coaches won’t stay and work for Saban but guys are staying and working for Pruitt. Think about that. Things are changing on Rocky Top

Butch....

1. Good recruiter? Yes
2. Corny? Yes
3. Con Man? Yes
4. Carnival Barker? Yes
5. Used Car Salesman? Yes
6. Trumpet Blower? Yes



7. Good coach, be it HC or position coach? No....

Why? See 2-6 above

Butch can coach special teams for sure. That's the only place I would want him.

Pretty cool news about Charles Kelly. Thats probably a bigger success keeping him around than we realize.

So we're down to David Johnson making his decision. If he leaves that opens the door for Tee as WR coach. What if he stays? Is that an option at this point? Is there anybody else that could get shuffled around or let go?

 

[Smokey123]

So freakin stupid...Bama hands out Chargers like halloween candy and gets nothing, while UT gets it for a former player giving a current player a ticket to the East Tennessee football game...what a freakin joke.

What? They’re all self reported level 3 violations, every team has them every year. Yes even bama. It’s literally nothing at all

 

[TennGentry]

So Kelly is staying??

 

[Jimmy Football]

Thursday AM Update> Source tells FootballScoop Maryland’s search is moving on as Charles Kelly has decided to remain with the Vols.

We will update as the next step for the Terps becomes clear.

He going back on the road, then?

But Helton is bad mouthing Pruitt....

But Helton is bad mouthing Pruitt....

He is. But thankfully we got Chaney who didn’t care

We can only hope

But Helton is bad mouthing Pruitt....

I said this before and I'll say it again, if Helton is truly bad mouthing Pruitt that reflects poorly on Helton, not Pruitt. All other accounts are that coaches want to work for him and players love playing for him. Sounds like Helton was the bad seed, glad he's gone. Pruitt upgraded big time.

 

[volfaninpa]

Poor Maryland thought they could get Fitzgerald from UT and Kelley from UT, but they were wrong.

They couldn't even get former UT coach Butch to come there.

 

[VFLPastor]

Because I'm not good at the maths...
We have one extra coach right now, yes?
If so:
A. who do we hope leaves?
B. who do we think actually will leave?

All signs pointing at DJ at this point

Might be a little premature to assume he will
Say no to Bama

No way he declines that D.C. Job is offered imo

 

[Sleegro]

Does he have a connection to the new coach? Really strange

I think he just wants to play against OU a couple times. Plus I don't think there's anyone there to beat him out at QB.

 

[Volnut]

Does this mean Tee will be an intern?

 

[butchna]

You might want to read more post because mine isn't the only take saying Butch would be a good position coach.

Perhaps everyone else is just blinded by hate.
Reminds me of the Dems voting for a wall until trump wanted one.

And you’re a love guru. @brown totally woke.

 

[engineerVOL]

Give him a million dollars a year to go get the croots and keep Chaney at his desk devising wicked good offensive gameplans.

 

[MemphisVol3]

This board is going to hate it but this is
Correct. Butch would be huge upgrade running their special Teams

Also I'll remind this board that butch got a lot of credit for reportedly taking over the WR coaching here a few years back. It was widely accepted that he turned guys like Josh Malone around

Yes I think coaching WRs is his forte.

Well Weinke appears to be under @Atlanta VOL cloak of protection...so Fair?

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

I know we had a media guy (can't remember who) said that Tee was on the road recruiting and Kelly had been taken off the road, but we've never had a official announcement from UT on Tee. Is this something that they're waiting on til they have a open spot on staff? Also has anyone actually seen pictures of Tee around the building or out recruiting? Not trying to be negative but just trying to decide if I need to prepare for a huge but check on Tee or go ahead and drop the guard n be happy.
