Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[revjayp]

If no Freeze, I’d roll the dice on Napier or Chadwell. Give em 3 years and then let’s try again. Maybe we’re just football whores?? We last about 3 years and then we’re on to the next one. That can be our “thing.” No hear me out... this could work! We can just recruit from the bottom of the barrel and see what works!

Reading the Auburn boards they think Malzahn is gone Sunday and Freeze is the top choice. I guess Josh Pate is saying it too.

RIP

There are 127 teams playing in the FBS this year and Tennessee is:

101st in passing ypg
83rd in rushing ypg
109th in scoring offense
76th in scoring defense
103rd in passing yards allowed per game
46th in rushing defense
117th in 3rd down conversion
104th in red zone offense
101st in red zone defense
67th in yards allowed per game
52nd in penalties per game

Inexcusable.

Freeze is worth the risk. People act like we didn't just hire 3 duds in a row. If Dooley, Butch, and Pruitt didn't kill the program, Freeze won't either. Hell, give us the death penalty. It won't even matter given our results since 2008.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Come on home, Gus.

Wonder if he would take the OC job. Him and Pruitt know each other very well.

With "the best OL in the SEC" and a 5th year senior QB. Fireable offense.

Didn’t realize Auburn’s class is ranked 42, that has to be concerning if I’m an Auburn fan.

Oh I agree. But I don’t get to decide. And we’re apparently so holy that we can’t have nice things.

 

[Catbone]

If Freeze is able to go to Auburn, I sincerely hope we don't get to 25% capacity in Neyland next year. We need to make a huge statement as a fan base.

Lmao

How much do you think the average fan is thinking about Freeze, though? Has the "Freeze to UT" stuff caught on on social media?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Lmao

Unfortunately I don't think Pruitt is fired, so im trying to go outside the box.

 

[engineerVOL]

Alright be honest...who is actually hoping we win tomorrow?

At best you don’t care and most likely hope we get out s*** kicked so Pruitt is gone.

Cannot take losing to Vandy no matter the ulterior motives. It’s inexcusable. Hope we blow em out like we can.

 

[OrangeBoll]

Does anyone have a gif of JG’s bow and arrow celebration? Asking for a friend...

Does anyone have a gif of JJ curb stomping Vandy last year? Asking for a friend...

Of course we waited too late

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Come on home, Gus.

No

Craziness. What if this is what atlanta vol was talking about? If Auburn and LSU Fire their winning coaches and we hold on to Pruitt, just burn it down.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

I hope we blow out Vandy and still fire Pruitt shortly after. And Auburn would be crazy to fire Gus on the Sunday before ESD. Say goodbye to your signing class.

No

Better resume than Freeze, no baggage.

It’s a no brainer.

We’ll end up jealous.

You’re correct. No brains involved.

They are struggling in recruiting. They only have 12 commits.

I read on one of their boards an AU 247 guy said it is 50/50 he is fired if they win to get to .500 this weekend. 80/20 to be fired if they lose.

I live in Texas and have heard all the stories about Baylor but the real problem is the people who run Waco. That city is run by a good ole boys club who've known each other all their lives. Baylor is Waco. I've read stories about the corruption at every level of government in that city.

I’d imagine a lot of small towns have similar infrastructure, cronyism and corruption

 

[ob79]

There's simply no scenario where I see JP working here long term anymore, especially if multiple coaching vacancies are coming. We've seen that crash and burn twice in the last decade.

We're about to find out if this university wants to win in football.
