Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

For those worried about COVID and aren’t interested in the vaccine look up Ivermectin. I paid $150 for a consult with a tele-doctor and got a year supply.

@SmokinBob
Cool... You graduated with my brother..My sister graduated in '76..

Can you give me a hint like maybe his initials...was he in band, sports, etc?

 

[SmokinBob]

Today is my 35th wedding anniversary!

I was there during those years when I was not working in Atlanta. I remember him and lots of the other guys. Pugs partner "Slab" was always around.

Really? That is awesome you remember him. I think he knew everyone in Washington Co. We couldn't go anywhere without seeing someone he knew.

I don't remember Slab, I was in elementary school at that time. Dad had a friend named Spud and I always wondered what happen to him.

Can we take a sec to dream about the kind of numbers Kamara would’ve put up if he had a full season as the feature back at Tennessee

 

[BruinVol]

Maybe the word success should be taken out. 7 should NEVER be a successful yr.

Then what’s a floor to?

you are saying even the failure years should have 7 wins?

If so perhaps you need a refresher on the history of tenn football

Went thru it 20 years ago. Divorced, got custody of my three little ones, lost my dad and a good job all in the space of about 2 years. Was a very rough time.

You will get thru it and come out the other side a better man.. Hang in, keep moving forward and ask for help when you need it..

My wording was a bit off here and I want to clarify that getting custody of my children was definitely NOT a bad thing. I am forever thankful I got custody of my children. It was absolutely necessary and I'll just leave it at that.

Thru all that I gained a whole new level of respect for single parents. It's tough to raise your kids with little to no help from an x.

OK, sorry to rain on the party. Back to our regularly scheduled foolishness...

Who gives a s*** what they are thinking? Look at where they are signing. Or better yet, not signing. It’s a problem. Tennessee is not a 2nd rate program. It’s a great program being crapped on by 2nd rate people.

2nd rate is being kind. Majority have no business influencing the program.

We have the same first intial. Look at my screen name for a minute and you'll get it.

 

[BruinVol]

No one cares that a former playing was dealing weed except weirdos or trolls

Yea I’m sure all the parents of recruits out there don’t care if their sons are dealing when they go play college football
Good thinking

 

[InVOLuntary]

Duke ladies (Kara) just cancelled season. I am worried that basketball is going to head the way it went last year. Need to be walked off the ledge- this has to be one of the best BB teams men Vols ever had.

That's so stupid and an over reaction, IMO. Way too premature.

 

[snowvols]

Next year is going to be very interesting seeing what SR's come back. I read Clemson may have several SRs return that are starters, but probably not NFL guys. It could change a lot of the dynamics next season if a team had a lot of seniors and a good portion of them return.

'Slabs" name was Dale, Pugs Partner. Seems I remember Spud as maybe one that worked for Pug? Your dad always occupied the best chair. LOL

Not at all. Tennessee history means nothin in THIS conversation. Look at Clemson history it’s not like these last 10 yrs. “History” only matters to the older generation (me included). Kids aren’t goin to Florida bc of history. There goin now bc there WINNING. We have 7 guaranteed wins every yr. And should win 8 or 9 consistently. I have no idea what history has to do with that.

The UT program’s all time winning percentage -and this includes the record setting lows of the last 15 years- is .675. 8 wins per year would be .667. 8+ wins is a successful year. 7 wins is acceptable. Anything below .500 is unacceptable.

 

[Ten_Titans]

So, uh, does anyone on here believe Pruitt has any chance whatsoever of turning this around next year?

I believe it is possible he can do enough to convince the more gullible of our fan base that he has turned it around or that he can turn it around.

But to answer your question, no. I don't think he will ever play for an SEC championship here.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

I am not a booster and I have never paid a recruit...carry on.

Agreed

I would be working hard to get Gus if i was TN admin. He would be worth a buyout. We would compete for the east with him.

 

[Johnnyreb#VFL]

Y’all think the players know anymore than the public?

They might have a feel for what's going to happen but I'm positive they wouldn't be told until minutes before the press release.

60th nationally ranked offense isn't going to compete for anything.

Bring in Gus if you can convince him to kiss and make up with the actual person responsible for winning any games at all the last 4 years.

You're making yourself look even more pathetic than usual.

Let it go.....
