Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

So the SEC is gonna loan us money to fire Pruitt? Nice.

And then we use the rest to higher the guy they kicked out of conference in Freeze.

 

[BAJAvol]

Rhule? The coach of the panthers? Lol

Yeah. The guy that could possibly not like the NFL as much as he thought he would similar to spurrier? Just saying it doesn't hurt to ask.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Where the hell is Kingston? Doesn’t he have media ties? What you need him, he’s no where to be found.

Hes trying to do the math on Will Healy's buyout. Give him a second.

Hey I’m all for it.

 

[Catbone]

I hope we borrow a billion dollars

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Phil can’t possibly see this working out. There is just no way

I did the math on PJ Fleck just in case anyone is interested...
If he leaves before Dec 31st... UM would be owed 10 million...
If he leaves after Dec 31... it drops to 4.5 million

That would be a looooong 11 days if Pruitt is fired on the 20th... worth waiting to save 5.5 million though

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Heres a curveball for you folks



What if the SEC has said one more year is time served for freeze and fulmer is waiting for that time to pass ???

I’ll take it

But if we fired Pruitt while waiting, we could have the ELITE coaching search gifs return.

[HankHill]

It makes no sense to fire Pruitt, unless you have a guy lined up ready to take the job. And at this point I don't think the options available are worth it. That may change, but given the current pool of coaches, I don't see it.

Do you think Pruitt is a capable coach that will turn this around and win 8+ games next year? If not... that’s your reason and sense.

Tee one year as interm

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Sounds like TV deal, and loans maybe.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

What??? Plenty of better coaches who would come here. Pruitt is the worst head coach we have had here and we should keep him? Whoa...

He’s just a mouthpiece for the AD trying to let us down easy with what will happen. There are numerous mouthpieces planted on this board to give pointed info with specific reasons behind it.

 

[Catbone]

So the question is ... Does getting money help us fire Pruitt or are we going to foolishly hire more assistant coaches with that money

Thats what I just thought, what if the SEC announces a loan or gift to each school, and instead of firing Pruitt TN just pockets the money and moves on. How much more would that piss of the fan base?

Uncle Phil made another deal with the devil. Sankey is footing the buyout.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

The AD needs to freeze all spending accounts and pool them all to hire a new football coach.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Adding Pete Carmichael to the coaching wish list.

 

[Blake25p]

Sounds like TV deal, and loans maybe.

So who is the contract gonna be with? My guess would be ESPN/ABC, would love it to be FOX though.

Watch Fulmer take a raise and give Pruitt one too.

"give me the cash to get rid of this clown, and I won't hire Freeze" - Phil probably

ESPN/Disney imo. Fox has the B10 and NFL. Good news is maybe some ABC primetime games with Kirk coming up.

We have underachievers at every level in the football program. I'm not in favor of giving anybody-- the current HC or a new one-- a free five to fix things that can be fixed in less time than that. It's possible to see progress right away and build incrementally from there. Everybody has to buy in, be accountable and be in lockstep. We're not that. And yes, it flows from the top and always has.

Yep. Progress isn’t always linear but this is stark regression with no hope that it’s going to sky rocket on track
