Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[BigOrange15]

The feeling around the program just feels less...toxic I guess? For the first time in a while. If random fans could sense it, I'm sure other coaches and recruits could as well. It finally seems like most people in and around the program are pulling in the same direction.

I'm gonna need some more gators and bulldogs to declare or transfer out please

 

[HankHill]

Butch can't get a job, Jancek fired again and now this. yep best staff in America, the joke continues!

Eastern Kentucky (FCS): Former head coach Mark Elder has been named head coach at Cincinnati Moeller HS (OH).

Walt wells is the EKU head coach. Lol

 

[StoVol]

Agree on the BSIA joke, it was ridiculous when he said it and even more so today. Botch was nothing but a bad salesman. On Elder, if you are going to finish out your career at a HS, he just landed one of the best gigs in America. Moeller has been a traditional powerhouse and feeder to ND and B1G for many years.

How am I selling him short? Because I mentioned third and Chavis? Even at the top of his game, that was criticized. He was a hell of a DC, but an even better LB coach. He coached up a lot of great LBers including Al Wilson, Raynoch Thompson, and Leonard Little. I'm not selling him short at all. I have great admiration for the guy, and would love for him to come home to the TN family in some capacity. I think he would make an excellent analyst/consultant/whatever you want to call it.

You threw the typical “Third and Chavis” shot out and proceeded to say he was a great linebacker coach, so it seemed like you were selling him short. Which is disrespectful. Kind of like how people say Fulmer was a great offensive line coach and they stop there. No, he was a great line coach, coordinator, and ultimately a great head coach.

Think you’re selling Chief short a little bit there. In his heyday with Tennessee and LSU he was one of the top defensive coordinators in the game. Put several great defenses on the field at both schools. Hated to see his career end the way it did at A&M and Arkansas. Should have especially never taken the Arkansas job.

I think the game passed him by a little. Also, he needs ELITE talent to be successful.

Who doesn’t in this league? You could place some of the best defensive minds in football in that Arkansas situation last year and they wouldn’t be any better.

The way he is turned...looking at camera

Geez

Damn. I never noticed Bigfoot’s huge hairy knockers before. Those are some hangers.

 

[BubbaWms]

only a matter of time before another Jennings joins the Big Orange family !

Spoiler

Jennings Pruitt that is

 

[AVolforLifenmeZac]

Any word on the Tee Martin interview at Ole Miss?

Female. Proves they are reproducing.

I think Tank could be that type of player.He was all over the field against IU.

 

[Kingston Vol]

We think he actually interviewed?

 

[JCP201]

 

[wisvol22]

Looking at 247, they have a kid named Gilber Edmond officially visiting us on 1/24. Unrated WDE.\\

@Ron Swanson - Any info on this kid?

Looks like another Pruitt under the radar special. Seems like he’d be a project though, article says he just switched to defense this year from WR and put up 17 sacks.

Football recruiting notes: Westwood defensive end Gilber Edmond earns first FBS offer

 

[peaygolf]

Have no idea. But if he and Johnson do leave, go get Freddie Kitchen's as RB Coach

I think the rumors of Tee and Ole Miss are totally one sided. Kiffin wants him. I don’t think Tee leaving for that job is realistic.

 

[AVolforLifenmeZac]

Not sure. Listening to the drive from yesterday, and they said he’s interviewing

People can have opinions different from yours without it being disrespectful.

 

[omghulkhands]

Somehow I am only just now realizing Will Healy led Charlotte to its first ever bowl appearance.

That guy seems like a legit up and comer.

Didn’t do much at A&M with a generational talent in Myles Garrett.

You realize kitchen’s has NOT coached college ball in 15 years and wasn’t known as a recruiter. Can do much better than him IMO if CTM does leave

I know. He's a name in the NFL and does have a good resume (NOT as a HC). Worth kicking the tires over, maybe.

 

[barrylee]

Just want to take the time to pat myself on the back for nailing it with this post back in September.

Lol! Unfortunately I'm sure I have a few of those too, back in Sept is the only time I have been a negaVol. I was convinced Pruitt was not the guy, so glad it appears I was wrong..
