Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[advancedrescue27]

Based on the fact that no one in media knew we were after Danny White leads me to believe that they know absolutely nothing about the HC search

Said this yesterday.

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

If they're meeting with the players tonight.... VN will know who the hire is tonight.

*Someone in that meeting will not be able to keep a secret.

Read it again, it says they will take input into the next coach.

Sources: Tennessee's Danny White bringing 2 hires from UCF

I like this. Sounds like a “figure where I am with everything besides football” guy and a “figure out what kind of NCAA mess I need to clean up” guy are in place right out of the gates.

For those of you who don't want to watch on utsports video player from 2007:

No way we hire Elliot. They literally said they want a proven winner.

 

[SPEDVoL14]

White has hit on almost all hires. I will trust him no matter if it is a sitting HC or not.

Garbage.

Read it again, it says they will take input into the next coach.

they ain't letting them kids vote.

Keep an eye out on Scott Frost y'all.

He hasn’t made Nebraska even remotely relevant in a substantially worse division we are in. I get that Nebraska has really fallen off, but so has UT and he hasn’t shown to be a program builder at a P5 level.

The magic word there is INPUT.

Interesting.

Give me some idea about him being on the money?

Said for a month or more Pruitt would be fired and probably Fulmer with him. Reported the Matthews hire a day before anyone else. Said AD in place before the weekend The list goes on. Join 247 for a free month. Worth doing, especially right now.

We will at least have an accurate list.

Hell even AP might know something useful if they tell the players who they are looking at.

Thamel basically saying "yeah yeah UT got a decent AD but they are still trash, anyway here's a bunch of guys who will be fired in 3-4 years after they post .500 records at best"

This is the list of a person who thinks UT is a sh@&$ job. Lazy journalism.

Pruitt was more qualified than Elliott is
JFC

hm.

i'm thinking about this. i think we'd all agree Kirby was more qualified than pruitt, correct? well i'd put Tony Elliot on the same line as Kirby Smart in terms of coordinators that matter most at Clemson....

so, if im trying to buy an Elliot hire, or sell it...i'm pointing right at Kirby Smart and saying "that's what we just did, just with clemson, not Bama"

still, i go back to the comments by CDP, and can't see us going coordinator route....i believe her, we're getting a sitting HC.

I totally agree, but it lines up with what @Stoerner Fumbles is saying

 

[Grey_pilgrim]

Working 12 hour shifts on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday isn’t good for following everything going on. My head is still spinning from firing Pruitt didn’t think it would actually happen.

Add to it hiring a, by all appearances, great AD in relatively short time and I’m very excited about the future. Now if you guys can just stop posting so much so I’m not 100 pages behind at the end of every shift that would be great.

Next and new are not the same word.

Hire any of these coaches and I probably won't watch a game till they beat one of our top 3 opponents.

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Thamel basically saying "yeah yeah UT got a decent AD but they are still trash, anyway here's a bunch of guys who will be fired in 3-4 years after they post .500 records at best"

Exactly this. It’ll take a while for the **** stain to leave the university.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

When @99vawl says they're taking input, do you think he means White is asking who they'd prefer he target as HC or that they have a coach and before they extend him the final offer they want player's thoughts? It has to be the latter, right? I mean you don't let 18 year old kids make the list lol...

That’s the list of names Thamel hopes we hire so we stay in the basement of the SEC
