Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[DarthVol1]

Some interesting stuff from Tony B's blog post The Tony Basilio Show

 

[VolGee4]

Brumbraugh had players randomly calling recruits parents right? It's like we don't know what the hell we doing. Smh.

Probably a reason he got fired. Didn’t want to work himself.

Wow wtf

As I said earlier, I think there's some depth to it which is why they have spoken with a good number of people. Obviously you want to be very thorough. The difference here is that things are public. Florida's investigation lasted over a year before they go their NCAA ruling. No one in Gainesville knew they were doing an investigation or that outside counsel was involved.

Investigation is only thing deciding Pruitts fate on field performance is not a factor.


-Hubbs

This is so stupid.

 

[Volfanatic_20]

If TN was looking I’d call Tom Herman. Young guy who is offensive. I’m not sure Gus could recruit this job without all star staff.

Wow wtf

Supposed to be Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian. I vaguely remember it being discussed on here when it happened.
PERHAPS HE WAS JUST DOING A TROPIC THUNDER THING

It’s like we want to sabotage ourselves...

Yes we do

Herb Hand, Marion Hobby?

I don't know what all options Hand will have and I don't know that Pruitt has any kind of relationship with him. I think Hobby would like to remain in the NFL

He went to Auburn, he obviously is ignorant to what is socially acceptable, but that doesn't mean he did it in ill will.

 

[jordan4vols]

What’s hilarious is it’s only the investigation that will lead to termination not the fact that HE’S A TERRIBLE COACH!

 

["It's Time"]

I am disappointed in VN. You guys should be better than this


AV has admitted for weeks a coup was being planned to oust Pruitt and Fulmer by a group of donors.

well there is one family in particular that clearly is in the opposite corner of Phillip Fulmer.

This one is easy

One thing I’ve been taught in life..

Decisions we make have consequences, that check ALWAYS come due. Maybe not right away, but it’ll come.

Welp won’t be letting that hire happen.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Looks like Scofflaw beer is coming to UT. Damn it. They don’t deserve good beer until we get a better program!

 

[Volfanatic_20]

Is Nieds at complex?

He was there for staff meeting today

Not necessarily. It appears they are trying to use the investigation as leverage to save money. If he had won 7+ games this year, no one cares about the investigation.

The problem is time is of the essence. They can try to save money, but at some point, the chance to save $3 million is not worth hiring a new coach very late or not letting him hire assistants if retained.

 

[Volfanatic_20]

I don't think the receivers had a good year. Obviously QB play didn't help, but I don't think they helped the QB play either.

I have no confirmation of Tee Martin being a leak or working against Pruitt.

-Hubbs

 

[Volfanatic_20]

Nieds gone silent?

I talked to Nieds yesterday. Lol

He hasn’t gone silent.

-AP

 

[Volfanatic_20]

How many mulligans for Pruitt?

If you are going to keep Pruitt then you are going to be hiring guys to two years deal. Unless you give Tee and Neidermeyer a one year extension.

-Hubbs

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Can’t believe Fulmer thinks Pruitt should be retained.

What indication has Pruitt shown that he can win big here? He can’t.

Unless he doesn’t survive the investigation, he’ll be here next year unfortunately.

Just don't make a move without having a signed agreement in hand with our choice at HC.

Hell bring back Pruitt for one more year if we keep getting passed over and take that year to find the coach we want.

Basically don't fire the guy without a plan. Simple.

 

[KB5252]

Just googled him (always a good sign): played at Auburn 2010, BYU oline coach in 2018, Troy offensive coordinator and oline coach currently.

I remember him very well. Was known as a cheap shot artist. Went after knees.
