Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Ron Swanson]

Sounds like 7 more reasons to fire JP.

He has to be fired if all these assistants are gone.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Who's left? Pruitt, Chaney, JG?!?

Chaney, Osovet, Felton, Pruitt

He has to be fired if all theses assistants are gone.

Saves on the buyout money as well.

 

[Weezer]

Funny story if Billy Napier is the higher, I actually met part of his support staff a few years ago. They were a nice group of guys and most of the team was pretty cool as well, although they were probably pretty tired because they had just played.

Who's he higher than? Doubt it's @TrippieRedd . Of course, you could have meant if he's the hire....

It's just going to cost more money if they don't do it now and wait till next year when they have to buyout all the new assistants after buying out several this season.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Might as well cut Pruitt too while they're letting coaches go. Don't you think?

Freeze. Now.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Tee and Jay walking will send a message.

 

[Weezer]

IF assistants really start abandoning ship, then Fulmer needs to take advantage of the situation. Why hire more assistants with buyouts when you know you're likely to fire your HC within a year anyway? Will he do it? Probably not because it makes too much damn sense.

This whole situation is like working with a complete a**hole who sucks at his job, and everyone knowing that they are an a**hole and awful at their job, yet management doesn’t fire the person. And instead management watches all the staff and customers disappear and wonder why.

That's the dude that cost me my job because his wife and my supervisor's wife were BFFs. I was trying to teach that dude how not to suck at his job and hurt his feelings and he told his friend, the supervisor, that I was hard to get along with. He was bad at his job, I tried to help him, and it cost me my job. Yeah, I can't stand that guy.

Sorry, im tired AF, got a cold ( tested negative for COVID) and its kicking my but.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I dont know why so many are down on him on here. He took over a team coming off of 3 straight losing seasons and got them to .500 his 1st year then 20-4 since. He's been an OC at Clemson and Arizona St and was with Bama as WR coach a bit. He's also been QB coach at 4 different places, including Clemson and Arizona St.

I’m fine with him. But Freeze is number 1. After Freeze, if were too stupid to hire him, then I’m fine with giving Napier or Chadwell a shot

Facts.

 

[HankHill]

But we’re keeping Friend and Weinke? So Vols.

Hopefully none of them unless the new head coach wants them.

Napier- HC
Chadwell- OC at Chaney money
Steele- DC

I wonder if a new guy could convince Tee and Jay to stay.

Only one they're buying out right now is Brumbaugh. If they leave of their own accord, we don't pay them anything. And of course some are on expiring contracts.

Losing Tee and Jay is a gut punch.

 

[TNDCVol]

Maybe JP is trying to help us afford his buyout, because if those seven or others leave on their own then we don’t owe them anything and there is more money for him.

 

[snowvols]

Highest paid OL coaches in college football.

 

[HankHill]

I wonder if a new guy could convince Tee and Jay to stay.

I’m sure it’s possible but i don’t want anything forced upon the next coach. If he wants them, great... if not oh well. I want Freeze to bring whoever the hell he wants to bring.

[Kingston Vol]

In hindsight, losing David Johnson and Charles Kelly were two warning shots, especially with the way they left.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Where is @Atlanta VOL ?

 

[TNDCVol]

Tee and Jay walking will send a message.

I would hope Tee and Jay would wait to see who the replacement is before making a decision. Them leaving now proactively makes me think JP gets another year.
