Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Brian Niedermeyer touting Sean Brown's athleticism, huge hands. Said he will help that physical run game. Notes how Jackson Lowe was a 1st team All-State in Georgia. Very productive. Already on campus.

 

[shoney]

Didn't he lay down a bunt right after he did this?

Yep, and legged it out, runner scored from 2nd, Tribe wins, yay! I was half drunk when I saw that movie in the theater, it was great.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Will Friend going through OL. Starts with Chris Akporoghene. Notes how he came to camp and earned an offer. Melvin McBride, "another Tennessee kid, same as Chris, he came to camp and performed outstanding and earned a scholarship."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

"Wanya Morris was one of the first guys we started recruiting hard when he got here. He has 36 inch arms and has a lot of physical tools."

On Jackson Lampley, "He's getting a chance to come play at Tennessee, which was his dream school. He'll play guard, possibly center for us. If there's anybody in the fourth quarter he's going to lay it on the line for Tennessee."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

"Darnell Wright, he just signed today. He'll be a tackle. Extremely long, athletic player. We're excited to get these five guys here. You want to be a physical team and it starts with the offensive line."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Tracy Rocker said Vols expecting Darel Middleton to play DT and SDE. Said he needs to get stronger when he gets to campus but expectation is for him to help them next year.

Rocker touting Elijah Simmons' singing talent. Said Simmons has lost 20 pounds but they need "check the scale again."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Chris Rumph: "We need to crank this thing up a little big. I feel like I'm a funeral. Can I get a, 'Go Vols!?!?!'"

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

"You know the defense we're going to wear out Coach Chaney's behind all spring."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Rumph calls Crouch "an unbelievable kid" and said he's like "a 25-year-old man."

"I won the lottery and he's going to play OLB."

"Don't be surprised if this guy is not a captain one day."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Rumph calls Roman Harrison another camp wonder. Jokes about how country he is, said he has the strongest handshake.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Terry Fair very complementary of Warren Burrell. Rattled off his credentials, notes how productive he was on a very good team in Georgia.

On Fields, notes his versatility — ability to play multiple spots in the secondary.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

DC Kevin Sherrer talking about a pair of "throw-back players" in Aaron Beasley and Jaylen McCollough.
Familiar theme: Sherrer talks about Mccullough's character, notes he too could be a captain here one day.

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

"A lot of our guys, they didn't want to go to a place that was already made. They wanted to build something."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Pruitt talks about the weight gains under Fitz. Said two guys came to his office this week. This time last year one weight 250 and now weighs 290. Another was 275 and now over 300.

Pruitt said he doesn't really care if TEs can catch. "I'm worried about blocking."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Pruitt retells the Mauer story: How he didn't know who he was an hour before meeting him and his grandmother. Offered him a scholarship that day.
Maurer already gained 11 pounds. "He needs to gain 11 more."

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

Are you done with this class?

"Yea. I'd say we're done."

 

[T Dog]

Today got me feeling

 

[SugarCC]

To all of those doom and gloomer's, and all those "he goner's"...to all those sad sacks, and pathetic "Pruitt can't closer's"...to all those that kept saying over and over and over, "Pruitt is struggling, something has to change"...to all those "lol er's" and deep down Bama UGA and Gator lovers...to all of those, you know who you are...

...it's time to do one of two things: either recognize...or get the fcuk out of here!!!

Pruitt Era
Go Vols!

 

[VOLuptuousBOOMS]

"Stick with us. We're excited. If you want to start recruiting at an elite level you have to start winning football games. We know that. ... We're excited to get around our players again. They're eager too."
- Pruitt

 

[shoney]

Smh people laugh at this but i go to the park ONE time and do this and i get put on a list

And that is not a list you want to be on. It's worse than that black book that Joe Pesci got put on in Casino. They didn't have the internet then.

 

[drvenner]

So where does Pruitt get his surprise wins in 2019?

At Bama

 

[drvenner]

actually surprised Jimbo was able to pull this much talent this quick at A&M... damn.

What do you think of our class?

 

[NMVol]

At Bama

So be it.
