Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Dudleys87]

None of you turd nuggets have to like the hire. The leadership in place will do what they feel is best. Have a little confidence. Let’s ride.

Marrone is just settling.
His records in college and NFL are proof of that.

Doug Marrone SUCKS
He went 25-25 in CFB
He went 40-61 in the NFL including 1-15 this year
His offenses have ranked in the top 10 ONCE in his tenure as an NFL HC
He recruited and signed ONE Four Star recruit at Syracuse, 0 Five Stars
He has never had a top 10 Offensive Line in the NFL
He is known as a HC in CFB who does not like to recruit and worked with Fulmer for one year 20 years ago, before any of these recruits were alive

Yall talking about winning 8-10 games EVERY YEAR with this dude...???

He went .500 at Syracuse where the previous 4 years they won a total of 9 games, he was 4-5 against the top 25 at that time.
Syracuse has never recruited well so he did more with less.

Before you start judging his time in Jacksonville you may actually want to read into the circumstances and just how much turmoil Tom Coughlin caused behind the scenes especially with running off half of his roster.

Such a lazy take, I get it he's not the flashy hire everyone wants like a Freeze or Kiffin but don't sit there and act like he's a terrible coach because he's not

 

[TN-POSSUM]

What's @Devo182 saying? He's our resident time traveler. Can he "Quantum Leap" this whole thing and get us Freeze?

It seems at this point that time travel is possible .... nothing is making sense

 

[Kingston Vol]

Can I just say I don't think it's a given that Marrone would take this job?

Am I taking crazy pills?

Ole double decker has spoken.
Stfu peasants...

 

[Dudleys87]

How is Marrone any thing similar to Pruitt?

The only way it works is if he’s just a talking head.

 

[appyvol]

Odds that they interrupt the game, put Freeze full screen and he rips off his suit to reveal an all orange one??

Freak's server would melt.

Freak's sever would melt if he just came out with an orange tie or orange socks.

 

[HankHill]

Pro style offense no no no

MUST HAVE DUAL THREAT QB

1. Please explain to me what you mean by Pro style

And

2. Whatever you think that is..... how does it prohibit you from getting a dual threat QB?

3. Have you watched a Jaguars game?

I'd rather attempt to go with some kind of known commodity over a guy that might be good, but we just don't know because his GM in the NFL blew his roster up.

 

[butchna]

And pay him generously for staying on board

Which prolly happens after sanity prevails. Just an early faux pas even leaving it up for discussion.

Justin Pugh and Chandler Jones were 2*s, but do they get retroactively bumped to 5*s because they were 1st rd picks? Ryan Nassib? He had 13 guys picked that he coached or recruited in his brief time there.

No offense bud but that leadership you talk of ain’t lit the world on fire with their decisions made the last 15 years.

The recruiting ONE four star at Syracuse is such a lazy argument. How many four stars has Dino Babers recruited? How about Scott Shaeffer? It's Syarcuse, NY we are talking about.

How is Marrone any thing similar to Pruitt?

I think its a guy Fulmer has control over. Someone he's comfortable with. Maybe with a dynamic offensive coordinator, you could sell me on him if he plays the CEO role.

 

[Batman1948]

Pruitt has been interviewed. Outside counsel is re-interviewing.

Must be lots of conflicting information if they're going around again.

Where it’s cold and really damn cold.

He's a good CEO type, he acts like an adult and has solid relationships through the college and pro landscape. UT could do a lot worse than Marrone

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Maybe the admin is throwing Fulmer a bone by letting him have some say in the next hire if he cans Pruitt?

 

[VolGee4]

It's not.

 

[quadlee21]

Ive talked myself into Marrone. Sorry @Ulysees E. McGill

 

[White Bread]

I said the same thing earlier. I’d be sold if he had an OC.

Lol whatever excuses you all have to make to convince yourself hiring this dude would be of any benefit to Tennessee football. The man's resume is not built to be the flagship coach of an SEC school.

 

[VOL6479]

The only way it works is if he’s just a talking head.

He'll be a figurehead CEO type and let the assistances do the work like Fulmer did.
