Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

He’s a teacher. A real coach. We need him.

Gotta make up for his lack of recruiting somewhere else though.

Need to swipe Lupoi from the Browns. Maybe Weinke leaves and makes room for Tosh.

Y'all remember the good ole days when AV gave us riddles to solve when it was slow, and we spent hours trying to figure them out. He would finally give up and give us more to go on.

It's a small world ride didn't drop the passenger off at the right place

With what Pruitt said about the best team he's been around, etc, I would say if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Or Rumph...who coaches his position group.

Which one do you have?

I have a masterbuilt electric smoker and I like it a lot. It’s very user friendly. Pretty much sit and forget - just add wood chips every 45 mins or so.

Happy Turkey Day! Hope everyone of you is with family and friends, and surrounded by things to be thankful for. God bless.

I watched the game again yesterday and the one against Jennings was bad. Other than that, it was all deserved

They could have called defensive holding or PI on every pass play.

IF...they missed on the Jennings one (I absolutely do not agree with you on that) there were 20 others that should have been called that were not.

Happy Thanksgiving VolNation!

For his post about Odom...Dooley will be the sacrificial lamb.

I missed that, what happened?

Any of y’all use an electric smoker? Been researching and there’s no clear cut winner.

I have a masterbuilt electric smoker and I love it.

Agreed brother! It sucks to lose to GSU. But it may have been the best thing for this team and program.

It is almost exactly like what happened after Crappabubba lost to LMU. The only bad difference is Saban landed a great class of big time playmakers after that season, and the rest is history...It doesn't look like our story will go like that however.

Pruitt has a different set of circumstances in recruiting, and it looks he is going to have to do it the hard way...it is just going to take longer to build.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I haven’t been on in a while been logging some serious hours in the deer stand for past 7 or 8 days. Just now got caught up on player threads. What have I missed in here ?

Yeah we’rea year behind that schedule lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Man... I really hope we don’t screw around and come out flat vs Candy.

Can’t afford that. At all.

Pruitt better have the boys amped up and ready to go. Now is no time to relax and start coasting.

Predictions of “blowouts” have turned into nightmares more often than not the last few years....

Yeah..this making my BVS act up..

 

[jakez4ut]

Yeah..this making my BVS act up..

I’m not concerned about them being motivated at all.

If anything I might lean toward "how is he gonna settle them down?"lol


We're gonna win this game. Buhlee dat.

day late and dollar short but I'd like to give Thanks for what many Big Orange faithful did 2 yrs ago yesterday in putting their foot down !
The 27th marked the two year anniversary of "Schiano Sunday". Regardless what Wolken, Herbie, Finebum, etc. said about the Big Orange faithful back then... the football program that many of us love is in way better shape than it has been in a long long time. Thanks to all who called, tweeted, and emailed the athletic department. Without the collective effort, who knows what mess we would be in right now.

Happy Thanksgiving to each and every one of you who gather here, and to those you love.

“Number one, I am thankful for my family. My wife, my kids, my mom, my dad, my brothers and sisters. I think we all are. I am thankful for having an opportunity to work for the University of Tennessee. I am thankful for these players that we have a chance to be around every day and what a blessing they are to us. I am thankful for the men that I work with. There are lots of things to be thankful for," Pruitt said at his Monday press conference.

"This is probably my favorite holiday just because of that. I think we get caught up sometimes in the wins and losses. I realize that is what we get paid to do, but the opportunity to work with the men in this profession, to be around the student-athletes and everybody that touches the student-athletes and watch them grow over a period of time, it is why I wanted to get into coaching football, so I could be a part of something like this. So, I am thankful to have an opportunity to do it at a wonderful university that football is so important to,” Pruitt said.
