Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Unconditional Surrender]

Lol what’s Big Moan saying now?

We're toxic. No one will take the job because of Vol Twitter

Basilio: coaching community is saying the word is 50 violations is the rumor. Job is being viewed as an expansion job in the NFL because not knowing what roster will look like.

Basilio is sometimes entertaining to listen to (except when they talk wrestling), in that he is a fan like all of us but with a radio show. I don't think he has any inside info at all. He also tends to be very, very, very pessimistic.

White didn't come here for a school that was going to get hammered. It would handicap him too much. He could have just stayed at UCF and made lots of money there.

Your source is wrong. I also do not have sources.

Sending you some sources now.

 

[FBtime]

My source is telling me its a done deal. People will be surprised at the cost but at least the search is over. We are in fact having filet mignon for supper. Still dont know which sides but finally weve agreed on supper!

I vote we all put him on ignore if we end up with a grisly t-bone and not filet mignon!

 

[KPT_VFL]

I’m serious guys. It’s probably not going to be anyone we want. That’s why I say just roll with Elliott. He’s well respected. Can recruit. If it’s Will Healy or Sonny Dykes or Scott Satterfield it’s a program killer. This is going on way too long for our top targets to have said yes.

50 level 1's..... WTF was he doing

 

[StoVol]

We can't even cheat right, the Detroit lions of college football... Where we just lose and lose. How do u go 3-7 with that amount of cheating? Trot out JG with Bailey on your roster?

 

[TN-POSSUM]

My source is telling me its a done deal. People will be surprised at the cost and how many options were considered, but at least the search is over. We are in fact having filet mignon for supper. Still dont know which sides were having but its a start!

50 Level I and II's just means everyone who could talk did talk.

TIFWIW. TB says when talking to his network in the coaching industry, Tennessee has almost 50 level 1 and 2 violations and even the large salary number we are throwing out isn't going to attract anyone big enough to fix it. He said in the coaching circle, this job due to roster and 50 violations is being looked upon as almost an expansion team in the NFL.

I never trust what TB says even when some of his information is close to true.

[IhateGA]

We are gonna get a crap hire.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

I'm just going to have faith for now that this isn't viewed as an NFL expansion team

 

[Ashevolle]

The standard for criminal convictions is MUCH higher than hiring someone for a job. By your logic, Ray Lewis is innocent because he wasn't convicted, so we should be OK with hiring him.

Same with Big Ben. Plenty of people don't get prosecuted when big money is involved.

Who alleged that he told one of the accused to erase the video? Consider the source before taking something as gospel

 

[JCP201]

To be fair, all indications are Pruitt would have survived a three win season if people behind the scenes didn't hate him because he treated them so badly. And, of course, the inept cheating.

It's not good when you cheat badly and have a three win season, though.

 

[VolsNUT]

Rice was throwing cold water on Campbell. Stating ISU would most definitely match $7+. For Campbell to jump, it is going to be about more than the $$$.

What are the odds he holds this job to a higher standard due to his relationship with Johnny Majors?

 

[seaofORANGE22]

I just gotta listen to Basilio so I don't miss it if the hire breaks while he's on the air. He doesn't know any more than anybody in here on this one.

IT THEREFORE PRESENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL, TO MAKE A MARQUEE FOR YOURSELF, TO BRING BACK A PROUD AND STORIED UNIVERSITY, TO CREATE A CHAMPIONSHIP LIFETIME LEGACY FOR YOURSELF AND ANY PLAYER OR COACH DESIRING THE SAME, ALL WHILE MAKING AN ABSOLUTE FORTUNE, ALL TO BE ACCOMPLISHED IN A DREAM LOCATION.

LET‘S MAKE IT HAPPEN. RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!

I think I agree. Getting sick to my stomach. I really shouldn't care this much lol

He had 1.8 million reasons to come here. He has a sweet contract.

lol....

 

[eVOLve]

What’s changed since TB was dropping nugz about Fulmer and Pruitt being fired?

A new AD.

Nobody has inside sources right now.

Pruitt was more than hated if those numbers are true
