'15 TN DE Kyle Phillips (UT commit 1/3/15)

Do you all think that his latest tweet about if coach O is new coach that would be clutch is bad news for us?

Makes me think he does not want to come to TN and wants a reason to tell us no. Nothing wrong with that if he really likes LSU.

Coach O did well as the USC interim and is a proven D Line coach. So is Strip.

Don't see how you form a viable, trusting relationship with a coach that has, at best, 1-2 days to recruit you before you make a decision.
 
Or maybe he doesn't want to show his hand before his big day Saturday. If he is making an announcement between UT and LSU and you eliminate LSU there is no longer anything to announce. That might be why Ole Miss was brought back in and after their drubbing today LSU gets put on life support as well just to make it look like an actual decision.

It could be that.
Could be..I hope you're right.
 
This kid seems like he is just trying to find a way not to be a VOL. I'm sorry but if the kid is looking for any reason to go elsewhere then let him go. If he gets here and hates it then he may be a cancer to the team and we don't need that. Just don't understand when all signs point for him to commit to the vols and play along side some elite DL talent and he just seems to find a way not to come here. He may be a stud but if his heart is not in it, we do not need him.

Yeah, I mean I doubt he has any relationship with him, so how could he be comfortable with him other than he feels he is a good coach. Not the same as having relationship through recruiting process to feel comfortable playing and practicing under him.

D-Line Coach and never a coordinator, somethings wrong with that given all his experience. It's hard to beleive he's never been a coordinator, except for recruiting. Maybe he doesn't have what it takes to be a coordinator.
 
So he said if Chavis left LSU was out. Then he said well my position coach though, then hey yea Coach O. I'm calling BS. He either knows he is a Vol, or he is looking for any excuse not to. If he is trolling, it's working perfectly because I gave no frign idea.

This kid wanted to see us win and maybe we did not convince him of our progress and he doesn't really want to come here. OR......he is trolling for a big surprise. I seem to think he is struggling with a big decision and may just not be sure what he wants to do. Saying O would be clutch is not saying O makes me commit but it would not hurt them.

Does an 18 year old think this deeply? They hear a name who is a players coach and good D Line coach.

This is what I've thought also the past couple of weeks.
 
@K72_Phillips: If Coach O is the new DC for LSU that'll be clutch 👌

You kidding me? Looks like nothing is gonna keep the kid out of Baton Rouge. Wtf?

I think you're dead on here. Just tweeted that it'd be clutch if LSU hired Orgeron as their new DC.....if that's the case, good riddance Kyle.
