Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[knoxvol52]

Question about the roster, is there a window for transfers like with football?

I could see the roster imploding since TV is gone.

No... The players would have to RS if they left...

Edit: Grad transfers can play immediately. Sorry about the prior information..

Potential for a 2026 MLB lockout. TV may not manage next season.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Contract already signed, imo

TV makes a statement and introduces Telander as next HC.

*thanks for the help, Sally

F*** Danny man!

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Can he have a similar impact on multimillionaire players?

Doubt it

Imagine older players knowing this guy has zero pro experience as a player or coach coming in and trying to tell him what to do and how to play the game. This is going to be a disaster.

UT gave Vitello everything he wanted.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Atleast Big Dan White has those sky high prices though


Good ****

I've seen more former players make comments about promoting Elander than I have about CTV leaving lol

Players love Elander

We need him at LB

 

[Jimmy Football]

I’m sorry. If it ain’t Elander, it’s a mistake. Alienating the current players, current staff, former players, etc, at a time when it’s rolling like never before, would be a huge own goal.

LOVE Elander. They'd run through a wall for him too.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Elander was Vols Offense
Anderson was Vols Pitching

If they are staying then I say we may not miss a beat.

Not really

Telander is still trying to learn angles

It's only baseball. . .

I will tell you this: I had more fun watching that entire National Championship Season in baseball than I've had watching football since I started keeping up religiously with them in around 2000. I've enjoyed several other baseball seasons more than any of those football seasons.

I don't care about what makes the University even more obscenely wealthy. That has zero to do with me. I just want to have fun watching sports.

And not just to any MLB team - he went to maybe the most storied MLB franchise, in one of the premier US cities, with one of the most iconic stadiums in pro sports, and it’s a time where it will be fairly low pressure on him to win immediately. This is a no brainer decision for him, it doesn’t compute to me how people are mad at DW or TV over this. It would’ve been like Pearl leaving for the Boston Celtics or Heupel leaving for the Patriots, except with much less immediate pressure to win. It’s a dream situation for TV and one that no one with a brain would pass up.

How is their less pressure to win? They just fired a manager that left the Padres to take his dream job with the Giants. He is a former Giant catcher, 3 time manager of the year and they fired him after two seasons.

It would take him forever to get to the podium and then somehow he'd miss the tackle. Wait, are we talking about the same guy?

We’ll miss a beat, no matter what. But we
can ruin the whole concert if our admin overthinks this.

It’s Josh’s time. He’s earned the right until he proves he can’t do it.

This may be a off the wall thought...


IF DW doesn't promote Elander to Head Coach, how about our Hall of Fame Todd Helton. ?
