Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Smokeytom]

Just passing along info--no offense meant. I don't make decisions for UT and my name isn't Randy Boyd, so hurling your frustration with UT leadership my way doesn't do anything. I'm tired of being the mattress for hundreds of matches. There's much to be happy about, and thankful for, this holiday season so I, for one, am going to focus on the joy of the season.

Don't take it personally. Its just natural to hit 'reply' to the person bringing the info. I don't think myself, or anybody is attacking you, just commenting on the info and voicing frustrations at the people making these decisions. We know you aren't to blame.

 

[Girth Brooks]

Even Big Bird gets it:

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I’ve heard it was Weinke.

Im just saying, but that was a good decision. The bad one was hiring him back.

 

[Unimane]

I do think that firing and the way it happened certainly created some tension among players and for sure among the staff. During the games JP is such a hot head when it comes to taking mistakes out on the coaches. Hell in all honesty this wasn’t the first time he had fired a coach in the middle of the game. He fired another coach last season during a game but ultimately came to his senses and recsinded it and let the coach back in the game...tells you what you need to know about how hot he can get.

If you win, you can get away with this by being "colorful". Pruitt hasn't earned anything to allow him the leeway to pull this sort of attitude off.

 

[I4Jay]

Unfortunately that is an old school way of hiring.

Yikes

The ol’ firm handshake and look em in the eye test!

I think some folks are attacking him. Not many, but some.

I don't see how people find it insulting or tone deaf that UT wants to provide a better experience for all fans. Club seating was upgraded a while back and upgrading other areas of the stadium, including non-premium seating, has been in the long-term plan. Fans have complained for decades about things that are long overdue. And now it sets people off? But that's the last I'll say about it.

Its tone deaf because the fans #1 want a good product. 'Gameday experience' literally means nothing without that. Any excess money should be thrown at the best coach possible to fix the current problem. Then bring on the stadium improvements. Its pretty simple really...

 

[drvenner]

When he had a chance to hire an OC and it wasn’t gift wrapped for him his two choices were Clawson and Randy freaking Sanders.

Well, you answered. I started this round, so I will let you have the last word if you want.

 

[tdbigo]

It’s not a 500 page playbook. It is large..I would say it is a solid inch an a half think

Hopefully all the dumbass infighting that just never seems to stop on the Hill about who's inch and a half is bigger between the "big"whigs will pause. They can put their crap aside for once in the past 20+ years and turn this ship around before it's never to be seen again... its getting close to disappearing over the horizon.

 

[FranklinVFL]

I’d sit on a 4 inch square of concrete in the baking sun between two Yankees 350+ each yelling at each other and passing Petros chili back and forth for a 10 win season. Needless to say, f*** renovations at this moment.

 

[Orange Studs]

Does this mean no more Gary?

 

[BruinVol]

His players at Bama who swore by him.

And it was said Jalen Ramsey was very vocal about wanting him to get the FSU Iirc

 

[Orange Studs]

How bout this time we dont hire a ****ing life long coordinator? Huh? I think that would be a great start

That's the big difference in the Coaches we are talking about is that they have all been HC unlike CP.

 

[UpstateVol613]

Well, you answered. I started this round, so I will let you have the last word if you want.

Rise above hate before hate rises above you.

 

[jakez4ut]

Does this mean no more Gary?

Well... He's gonna need a job...

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

What’s Pete Carroll doing? Seems like he would have interest if we fire Chaney.

 

[engineerVOL]

We are in such a perpetual funk that I can’t even remember the last time a poster from a rival came here for fisticuffs.

I have enjoyed you being back on and sharing info.

This is insane. No wonder we are so screwed up.

 

[Orange Studs]

And yet Fulmer going to let him redo the whole staff AGAIN!

 

[SpringBokVol]

And I am pretty sure it was Weinke

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Our offensive class is pretty good. Wish we landed a highly rate OT, hopefully we can fill up next year. But for our defensive head coach, this class is not very good For the defensive side. It is not a class to get us better on that side of the ball. Haters on Tee and Graham, our best commits are from their positions. I can’t imagine how this class would look without them.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Rise above hate before hate rises above you.

Ray?

 

[NMVol]

Retain everyone and have a staff retreat in the Spring.
