'12 TN OL Andrew Jelks

[Demon_Vol]

chow time chump!

Didn't you hear? Vandy got screwed by that last call. If they'd admitted that one of them blew the whistle then Vandy would have won that game. Never mind that TN would have gone on offense, it's all the zebras' fault.

dragonfly... lone wolf.... wolf-den.... such colorful excuses you have. I heard the Ingram's are donating a billion and asking for an official change to the NCAA record book.

 

[UTMVol76]

Yes. I will come back and eat my crow if Vandy loses.

Don't see your little green light on there, buddy.....

:loco:

 

[manndingo]

Never cared for jelks' attitude about the process, he's a scared little boy who doesn't want to compete vs better players...sounds just like the kinda player that goes to vu. The milk chocolate lane kippen got a small taste last night, he better go find him a job somewhere else bc its just goons get worse...as for jelks, o would have told him to get bent as well, pay yer own damn way...yer either with us or yer against us.

Complete ignorance. He went to the school and team that was the best fit for him.

I think one factor of his commitment is that his girlfriend goes to Vandy

Another hostessgate? Wow, Franklin IS Kiffin part deaux.

 

[joshc]

Seriously, I would rather play for Dooley way more than Franklin. Franklin seems like he has anger management issues. A classic can dish it but can't take it kind of guy.

Not sure but I believe that may have played a big part in his decision

 

[tombomcfaren]

i saw jelks on the sideline. thats gotta be a tough loss to watch. eek.

Franklin needs to take another job before he wastes his career. That's the truth and he knows it. Wait until he gets a job offer at a better program. If Jelks thinks Franklin will be there when he graduates from Vandy, he's smoking drugs.

Within 4 years Franklin will:
A) be fired like every other Vandy coach
B) do well at Vandy (6-6, 7-5 seasons at best) and move on to another job

I'm assuming Jelks picked Vandy for the education. I wouldn't blame him there.

It looks like that with him and his folks being UT fans they would recognize a BS artist after the Kiffin debacle. Franklin is doing the same thing, no way he wants to stay at candyland. Franklin is probably extremely freaked right now. I am assuming he knew this was the year to get UT, and really work that into a better resume. They are not going to be better next year and he knows that too. Now he will probably go to career hell. Oh well, Jelks made his bed now he's gonna get screwed in it.

I understand that point, but at the same time it is still very over blown. The quality of education that you receive is more based on what you make of it, as opposed to what the school itself. This is evident in the fact that from top to bottom Vanderbilt is a better school than Tennessee, but the top UT students are just as good if not better than the top Vanderbilt students.

I'm a manager for a major local corporation (huge UT booster) and you always look at quality of education when hiring.

There are two AAU schools in the SEC. There are only 34 public schools in the country that qualify (Florida is one of them) and 25 private schools (Brown, Penn, Rice, Cornell, Vandy, etc)

Missouri and Texas A&M will add two more (huge factor in both being accepted by the SEC).

So unfortunately I have to disagree. You are being biased haha.

In a job like that I agree with you. However, in terms of a more advanced degree, I disagree. I know during the whole process of applying to Med school, where I did my undergraduate was never a big factor. School such as Yale, Stanford, UCSF, and Harvard could care less where I went to undergraduate. This observation was verified after enrolling and becoming one of the students on the admissions council. They cared more about papers that I have had published in scientific journals, national awards such as Goldwater Scholar, extracurricular, MCAT scores, and GPA. In all of those categories, the upper echelon at UT is even if not better than the upper echelon at Vanderbilt. This is evident by the fact that UT and Vanderbilt have mirrored each other in terms of Goldwater Scholar recipients lately.

Eh - like the guy above - I suppose with some average business type of degree. With my degree it doesn't matter at all.

Same with engineering from my experience. The research you've done and journals you've published in go a lot further than what school you went to. Granted, there are more opportunities to get hooked up with good projects at a prestigious university, but there are opportunities at UT to make yourself just as appealing.

 

[MSCE09]

Depends on what your degree is in. For engineering in Middle Tennessee, Tennessee Tech, Tennessee, Alabama-Huntsville, Alabama, Auburn, Mississippi State and Kentucky are more likely to get you hired than Vanderbilt.
