Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Just checked in on twitter and holy hell… these idiots want to fire Danny White?!?
And fire Hype. And fire DAD when he was AD. And start Brandon Stewart over Peyton. And recruit Jahmyr Gibbs as a DB. Ok, the last one was Cornbread Beldar's idea, but still...

And to think humanity has always been this short sighted. There just wasn't a platform for people to unveil their idiocy to the world in real time. :(

I’m at work and can’t listen, what’s the gist?
You can hear Tony V frustrated with some of the trends of college sports and the scholarship numbers, etc. No longer are you getting to have a 'team' that's together for multiple seasons. In that way, what's the difference in managing that in the big leagues.

On the other hand, the chance to continue to coach young men and invest in them in this way isn't something you get to do/be at the MLB level.

They also talk about youth sports in general, etc.

Team workouts begin for the baseball team around noon and a scrimmage shortly after. Per a connected guy in the baseball forum.

We will very likely know something today. Fingers crossed.
 
Florida 247 writer Graham Hall wrote on Twitter that interim Florida coach Billy Gonzales should be a legitimate candidate to keep the job and Gator fans are going off on him on 247. Gotta be a reason he'd suggest that, you'd think.

That’s similar to Brent Hubbs mentioning Mike Bobo as a HC candidate on VQ which was planted by John Currie to guage reaction.

I say some dumbass sh*t about Heupel in game, but sober midweek (although I certainly don’t believe he is peerless) I can sit here and say we’re not doing any better for a football coach and we need to grow with him. Most CFB fans would kill to have their program in the spot we’re in right now.

People wanting the AD that has our whole department humming rn fired are just next level dumb. The inept ADs we had in the 2010s were solely responsible for the football program’s demise. People are mad that football tickets are expensive now. Oh the horror! Bama should’ve fired Saban and Mal Moore in 2010 when they got a waitlist for their tickets and they got expensive.

Bro, you turned full heel during the game. Glad to know it was the booze and frustration talking.

I'd like to add one thing, er a couple.

After Derek, Butch, and Jermy. I honestly dont care if we do lose another game. We were not a good team, for a long long time.

I call it the cold backside. Teeth chattering, watching Vandy have their ways.

We have to shore some things up. But, we have the ship pointed in the right direction.

I'm gonna say this one last time. Josh has a 74% winning percentage. I gauran effing tee someone else would gladly grab him up.
 
Also a matter of what staff shake-ups an external DC will be allowed. Heupel likes stability and continuity so I don't think he'd want someone that would overhaul the entire defensive staff. Garner and Chop should be safe and I like Inge as LBer coach. Think we'll be better there once he develops those he recruited. Martinez may decide to retire when Banks leaves.

I liked what Knowles did for Ohio St. but he didn't exactly light the world on fire at Penn St. so idk if it was just an off year or if he just benefited from Ohio St. talent.

If Bryan Kelly gets canned, I'd look at Blake Baker. Clemson's DC (Tom Allen).
Knowles is a good DC, Improved every year at Ohio State and Oklahoma State. He’s older and would likely stay as Heupel obviously likes. This year has been meh but I think there’s more going on in that program
