Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

We must be the only vol fans in GVL

GVL here! Lived here for 15 years. Grew up in Johnson City, but moved here after college. Love it.

Palmer comes up after Amari

Who taught him that slant route? Bet the last staff is pissed.

 

[rekinhavoc]

Oh no, Jay. What is you doin'? X2

Hopefully taking some of Pruitt's leftover petty cash to pay some Bama players. Of course being a VFL he will tip off the NCAA and National media to have the cameras ready.

 

[thomaseusin]

We don't play anyone coming off a bye...?

Good mojo started already? Bammers get 3 weeks straight, FU gets 2 and UK gets 2 in a row!

About the search :

I bet DW met with some folks and thought these guys are overpaid asshats . We are not giving a coach a personal valet at work , a butler at home, and a bidet in his office.

Heupel scores and pisses under the bleachers on the practice field. Let's roll!

 

[tnvols72]

I feel bad for Brandon Johnson having transferred to UCF and now he is stuck

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

Some coaches who may be coming with Heupel to Big Orange Country.

Loved both those videos. Getting hyped. TWEET TWEET! May start using that in my classroom when it's time to transition.

UCF LSU highlights. Punching above their weight..

 

[RyanWalkerPGH]

We are due to luck into a good hire.

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

We went on this explosive search to build a new “decade of dominance” and we end up with the guy from Whites last job. Really? A guy who even their fans are scratching their head over because of our interest. You can all attempt to build up your case for Heupel in your head and rationalize it with hopes of Missouri in 2017, and these Offensive stats from UCF but just remember one thing... the Atlantic Conference is NOT the SEC. The talent needed to run this style of offense currently doesn’t exist at UT and probably won’t because the necessary players would rather go air it out with Leach at Mississippi State.

I’m so excited for this hire I can t stand it!

I disagree. I think we have two really good quarterbacks and great speed at the skill positions. What more do you need for this type of offense? I actually think this offense will cover up some deficiencies on the line as well.

Asheville, here.

 

[orange parmejohn]

I’ve gotten my anger out and now ready to get behind this guy and what he may bring to the table. Are we there yet, in this thread, or is it still airing out?

 

[VFLPastor]

Two ways to look at it:

1) Could we have done better? Sure. But the Chancellor wasn't going to stand for some of these coaches, and they were working with a specific profile. Finding a fit within certain parameters isn't easy, especially when you factor in UT's current situation.

2) Could we have done worse? Definitely. Building in a safety net set the floor, and we got a good AD in the bargain. It's always nice to have a guy in your backpocket. That was a smart move.

We avoided freefalling, stopped the bleeding and now we can rebuild.

Extraordinarily rational take.

Jesus Christ Hank. 90% of NFL coaches walk into a situation destined to fail. White black tan brown or green. Unless you have a Brees, Watson, Rodgers, Brady, Mahomes, Wilson - well, you better be a damn good coach or else you’re fired in 2-3 years. Even a Goff and Allen are piss without great coaching. Like 10-15% of the league has elite QBs who will make any coach look good. Maybe 60% of the league has system QBs who need a great coach. The rest of the teams are in limbo. Recycling coaches every year hoping something clicks.

If Adam Gase was getting the Texans job, would he be getting ‘setup to fail’ or would it be another episode of ‘systemic racism’ holding minority coaches down?

Whoever is getting this job is destined to fail lol

 

[UTSuave’]

He’s back

Tennessee football: Albert Haynesworth calls for boycott of Vols for 'systematic racism'

 

[VFLPastor]

Oklahomans like their Braums

Can confirm. Long lineage of Okies. Braums is church.

 

[bpvol]

Man, Tiyon Evans re-committing waa absolutely huge now. All we have behind are some unproven guys and not sure Brown will be a good fit for what CJH runs.

I think the other teams’ defense is going to get tired and out of position. Cody will be great at battering them.

 

[RikidyBones]

Hoping in green. Us or dolphins would be my guess. Dark horse eagles?

Dolphins have a chance as a contender. He'd be wise to go there over Jets or eagles imo.

Anderson

There are literally tens of us!

 

[PA Vol]

They gonna maybe win a Natty with our guys help

I hope every single one of them gets a degree and is successful in life but utterly and absolutely underachieve in football.

 

[Devo182]

This is basically just a bridge hire until the NCAA sanctions are over.

On a 6 year contract...?

 

[Vols_Life]

Two decades now.
