Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Volsfan895]

Guys and gals, there is clearly a plan. Relax. It will be fine.

I don’t know about the clearly part.

IM SORRY IS HE WEARING A GOLD JACKET?

He was only 1 yard away dammit!

 

[Blake25p]

You would think we’re far enough along in the investigation to know whether or not if Pruitt should be fired or retained. At this point it’s doing more damage not knowing, make a damn decision.

Thamel on Finebaum:

• Looks like trying to sabotage own coach to save $12M;
• Long term - Pruitt doesn't survive
• This is what happens when you hire Fulmer as AD with no experience
• Very predictable.

Finebaum: What is the end game?

Thamel: Have to decide - do we want Fulmer. New President has inherited a complex situation due to the extensions and raises with Pruitt and Fulmer. Tennessee is like the Saturday Night Live skit of the SEC. What is Tennessee doing? Clearly no direction. Whether its days weeks or months, cannot see a path where Pruitt survives this.

This is a dumpster fire.

Throw some mattresses in it.

Go watch the guy coach they’re going to be really good on D. Brian Kelly is still scum to me.

They have had a great coaching staff for a while now.

They can't recruit that school well enough to win a national championship, no matter how many pity bids they get for the playoffs.

My god Thamel is nuking us right now.

Much deserved

what might that be?

 

[butchna]

Won’t be surprised if he is only there a year. Going to be a HC sooner than later, IMO.

Start the thread.

We need Fulmer to not survive it either.

21 years ago today was the Music city miracle and today we hear about Jeff Fisher. It's a sign. Of course, yesterday the sign was 'hiring freeze' so I can't wait for tomorrow's sign!

Tomorrow’s sign

Tennessee....plan? Those 2 words don't belong in the same sentence.

Absolutely. Planned obsolescence.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Makes me wonder if these players see Pruitt's firing coming. This one really hurts

And the complete crap show this has turned into. Even if they keep him, they know their position coach is going to be a McGoogle now.

@Atlanta VOL

Dude, You got to give us some glimmer of hope...

 

[VOLSONLY]

That’s Tennessee Stud, to you. I love the University of Tennessee and can’t stand to see her struggle. He had the nerve and he had the blood, and there never was a horse like the Tennessee Stud. I said it’s great to be a Tennessee Vol.

 

[goooooovols]

Guys and gals, there is clearly a plan. Relax. It will be fine.

Lol I’m not seeing it!

 

[SLICKYINC]

My god Thamel is nuking us right now.

Yeah, he spoke the truth though. Sad

 

[UpstateVol613]

Why do you hate coach Fulmer? Your agenda is stale.

This sure aged well didn’t it? Been trying to tell you forever. Tell Phil I said hey at the next family reunion.

 

[ugg]

Thamel on Finebaum "UT is the laughing stock of the SEC.... The university is sabotaging their head football coach to save $12M, Obvious the university has no clear plan in place. And he doesn't see how Pruitt can survive this. FWIW

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

The post 2020 silly season is now more of joke than the 2017 coaching search fiasco. Would you believe that was ever possible?

 

[volatil]

You act like dyson was a bum lol

Dyson averaged 462 yards a year at Tennessee
