I know that's what he says, but the info originally b seemed to have come from an agent leak. A coach is never going all in before he has a job lined up.

The important question is do you think that's coach speak damage control or genuine?

I think he’s def not leaving but that’s just me. Otherwise why do this? This wasn’t in response to a question.

Please check my posts and share why I said he quit on his teammates and is a quitter. I’ll wait…

I said before the season he wasn’t going to play and train for the nfl. And I have said repeatedly that. I wish him the best and he is a great player. I never called him a quitter or a bad teammate.

This is the problem here. Words that aren’t said start being used because you brought something that wasn’t overly positive and fit certain opinions in peoples head.

I could be wrong. Maybe he did try to come back and wants to play. But when you’re told
something before the season and it comes true, well it kind of looks like the info was correct.

AP and hubbs have on record stated months ago that he had people in his camp saying to train and not play. They even said today on the podcast that they didn’t see him playing even if he could to prepare for the nfl. Don’t call me a liar because you can’t handle bad news.

At this point, looking at it from his career perspective, it prob wouldn’t be smart to risk playing. Imagine he comes back and re-injures. Would cost him many millions

I think the Vols should go after the best QB they can buy in the portal this year. Player loyalty is not guaranteed in the post-NIL/transfer portal world. There's no guarantee that GMac or Faizon stay with the Vols even if they are given the keys to the kingdom early (see Nico). They could also easily get hurt or bust. We should be putting the best product on the field each year and let the chips fall where they may. If we win and we offer competitive compensation, we will keep good players even if they sit for an extra year.

I know teams can still be good with an unproven, green QB (see Sayin at OSU or Ty at Bama), but is that the risk you want to take? We've seen what this offense looks like when it's executed by a competent QB. I don't want to go back to forcing a rook to a baptism by fire to see what we have.

I ask AI is Faizon the truth. It said. Yes, Faizon Brandon is indeed considered the truth. That’s enough for me. Heisman and natty next year. Book it. No need for a xfer

It never affected any potential job he's ever had other than ONE and everything was based on one claim by one guy in court several others,
since discredited, who was just testifying for insurance purposes.

I'm not at all going to engage further in a debate about it, but your take that this one dude who made these accusations, and not just about Schiano, is more credible than the dozens of people who backed up the coaches he singled out as having absolutely no knowledge of it, is pretty generous to your own ability to test whether one person is lying or not.

If you were so justified, then Schiano wouldn't be working. He's only ever had ONE issue.

Not sure why you’re so defensive about him. People around that program knew. All the way to the top of the university. I think it’s very likely he knew. That’s enough for ME to not want him anywhere near Tennessee.
