'12 LA LB Otha Peters (Arky signee)

[AllVolYall]

Haha, thanks Vol fans. You are really helping the cause. :jpshakehead:

Here we go with the fans are responsible. :lolabove:

 

[volsfan24018]

Not a big deal losing Otha Peters imo. Didn't really have a strong offer list. I think he was just a big fish in a small pond type player. Dooley and co. always have a plan. I don't seem to remember anybody predicting Curt Maggit to be a Vol this time last year. Tomorrow should be interesting to say the least.

 

[PennVol]

That's not really correct. Losing highly rated players already in the program that don't pan out or don't want to be on the Hill have led to the record over the last few years. Not losing a HS recruit.

Its both

 

[Orange Blazer]

Will Dooley get at top 30 class?

No, me may drop out of the top 100 now.

 

[OCIVol]

LOL yea right, Dooley's gonna start pulling offers if kids continue to take visits...

:lol:

No Way

I was not referring to yanking scholarships. I was just curious if he would simmer down on encouraging kids to take their visits. I don't think he will and I don't think he should FWIW.

 

[SergeantVol]

I will say if this was one of my Privates (I am in the Army...no gutter talk here) I would smoke them until their arms fell off for lying. I am not mad that he switched. I dont much like people who lie, cheat, or steal. My parents raised me that way. I have raise my childern that way and I have led my soldiers that way.

Like we have control over the situation??? :ermm:

Fans aren't responsible for the meltdown here that the guy tweeted about? Are you retarded?

.

I feel like a big glob of Otha Peters' spit just hit me in the eye.

 

[CB4VOLS]

All the negative talk about Dooley and his supposed lack of coaching ability sure doesn't help matters when potential recruits read that garbage. The negavols of course have a right to their opinion but it's their opinions that hurt this team and its abilities to get better in the future. I guess haters are just going to continue to hate whether it effects the team or not. Dumb Asses........

 

[kwhite40]

We can barely beat Vandy and UK. Just saying. Let's be realistic with the comparisons.

he said he wasn't talking about us..."not saying UT is close"

 

[Orange Blazer]

Like we have control over the situation??? :ermm:

We have control over the stupid stuff we post here about recruits, and the morons who say stupid crap to these recruits on twitter should use control

 

[golfballs]

It sure doesn't help

 

[Neyland Law Vol]

Isnt this the "positive" forum on VN?

 

[1utfbfan]

No. Theres no way other coaches would use all the negavol comments on here to recruit against us, just ask the negavols they'll tell you that just doesn't happen.

 

[Spartacavolus]

Its both

Not really. We had 3 srs graduate last year that played significantly, and Kiffins highly rated class has @ 9 players left. That's why there is no depth. You build it by having talented football players in your system and upper classmen to lead.

 

[I4Jay]

how else could u keep kids from tsking visits?

Texas and Bama can barely do that and one controls an entire state and the other is the number 1 recruitimg machine in football.



now you are expecting the coach of a sub .500 team to wield a heavier sword then those guys.

that is not realistic at all

Nice:thumbsup:

Isnt this the "positive" forum on VN?

Apparently. Grown men saying they hope a kid breaks his leg or tears his acl sounds positive to me.

 

[getyopopcornready]

This sucks. Kinda puts a dent in our 3-4.

He would have been in the rotation but we still have some depth at LB.

AJ Johnson
Maggitt
Lathers
Harris
Greg King

Anything we would have gotten out Santos and Peters would have been a bonus. I still think LAtroy Lewis could be a bonus next season.

 

[Orange Blazer]

Nice:thumbsup:

If the shoe fits...

 

[Phat-Phil]

Everyone has kids flip, but how many other programs have 2 4* DL and 2 4* LB flip RIGHT BEFORE SIGNING DAY...and don't say Cal.

What 2 4* DL are u talking about? We lost Jacobs a while ago, and I'm not sure who else you are talking about.

 

[UTCVol]

Funny how "coaching instability" hasn't been a concern until now. Sounds like Petrino fed him a load of bs.

 

[VolsR#1n98]

Crazy time of year...and I was expecting very few waves from this point in.

Has this been confrimed by another source yet?...right now everything I've read is coming from the HS coach. Interested to see how this plays out.

Only when the football forum doesn't invade.
