Ty Simpson (Martin, TN) ?
Marcel Reed (Nashville) ?

yes.

 

[DaddyChad]

Yeah we recruited Simpson. Jason didn’t allow us the chance to do much there.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Some guys want to go elsewhere. Not everyone that lives here is a lifelong fan

 

[JMSqb11]

Yeah we recruited Simpson. Jason didn’t allow us the chance to do much there.

As he should have given the state of the program his senior year.

I think Pruitt offered to give Ty’s dad a coaching position on the UT staff.

Heupel had no time to recruit Simpson properly

Is his dad on staff at Bama?

Pretty sure Simpson committed to Bama and was there for a year at least when Saban was still there and saw the opportunity when Deboer took over.

 

[IndianaVol]

Don't think we recruited Reed much at all since he was mostly a runner coming out of high school.

Ty Simpson (Martin, TN) ?
Marcel Reed (Nashville) ?

Marcell Reed not so much. He was in the same class as Nico.

Pruitt offered Ty’s father a job and of course, Ty would go to TN w/him. He was leaning towards taking the job. Pruitt called him a bit later and told him he had to get some things worked out. Soon after Pruitt was fired.

The father said he was happy he didn’t tell his employer he was leaving as he wouldn’t have had a job. Crazy story.

What’s funny is he works in the same system as Pruitt. Randy Boyd effectively is both their bosses at the time.

 

[MOOOOONEY]

If I remember correctly.

CJH was assured by the Simpson family that they would give him a chance to recruit Ty and he committed to Alabama not long after.

Didn’t think of that.

I wonder the number of coaches with sons of elite football/basketball skills, receive offers to be on staff.

From what I can remember, UT gave Wade Houston the job so Alan would play for the Vols. He wasn’t qualified to be head coach for a SEC program.

Long time Head Coach at UT-Martin

He was Denny Crum's right hand at Louisville, plus he was the lead recruiter there.

BINGO.
Makes me so mad.
Heupel stinks at evaluating QBs.
What is he? 0 for 5?

he coached HH, Joe Milton, and recruited the #1 QB in many rankings. Nico Iamgonnaleaveya. 2/3 are in the NFL.

Sam Bradford
Drew Lock
Dillon Gabriel

Joey Aguilar
