'20 GA ATH Arik Gilbert (LSU commit)

[Trojan_Vol]

Not exactly looking forward to watching Tennessee try to defend Washington and Gilbert.

That would be one hell'uva combo to watch though, now that they have a triggerman.

 

[Lane Train 4]

LSU star freshman tight end Arik Gilbert has now officially entered the transfer portal

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Would you be ok with retaining Pruitt if it meant Gilbert was a Vol?

No

 

[Lane Train 4]

Would you be ok with retaining Pruitt if it meant Gilbert was a Vol?

No, we won't even use Arik Gilbert.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

It’s not just “one player” it’s probably multiple. Don’t think for one second that To’oto’o stays if there’s a coaching change. Same could be said for Wanya who has half his HS teammates at Georgia Tech. Bailey could also follow Gilbert to whatever team he goes to if he feels like he could start there. Darnell could be out and headed to WVU. There’s a ton of guys that would probably leave if we fire Pruitt and go get someone that they don’t.

How do fans know that Henry T, Brooks and others would automatically leave if we fired Pruitt? It seems to me the smart thing to do is to see what the new staff would be before they make that decision.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

UGA....

Bump.

 

[PA Vol]

Weren’t LSU fans saying at the start of this that Kirby was already talking to the kid prior to him entering the portal? God I hope so. I really want to see that program burn.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Gilbert going to UGA. Ugh.

UGA, Florida, Bama are the big 3 and all outclass us in every way

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I have no clue because Pruitt pulled him every game this season.

Wow. Whatever then.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Gilbert going to UGA. Ugh.

UGA, Florida, Bama are the big 3 and all outclass us in every way

We should be used to this and it’s not changing anytime soon.

 

[yabo]

Yep and the Vol players are working him. I think Vols are an actual factor for him due to that reason.

 

[Hacksaw11]

Transferring out of LSU

Problem with that is when it’s announced, they’re signed. Then we have additional buyouts.

 

[LeBleu]

Forgot what they said the the R.F. but could be us, Clemson, maybe GA or FLA I think is what's been speculated.

 

[RhodesVol]

I guess there's a chance, but honestly why would he come be a part of this team right now with the options he has on the table?

We are trending in the wrong direction, and the coaches cannot honestly and definitively even tell prospective transfers or recruits that they will be here in a month, much less next season or beyond.

I would love to have a player of his caliber, but unless we are still doing the things that spawned the current compliance investigation, I don't understand how we are getting him.

 

[84Volfan]

Wouldn't be surprised if he and HB both end up in Athens....

 

[EdEcEko77]

This guy is alluding to him being uga bound.

Figures

 

[MarcoVol]

Wouldn't be surprised if he and HB both end up in Athens....

HB isn’t going anywhere if Pruitt is still coach, which he is as of now....

 

[Saltydawg]

Wouldn't be surprised if he and HB both end up in Athens....

I don't see HB in Athens.

 

[Jackcrevol]

This guy is alluding to him being uga bound.

Figures

Who the **** are these people on twitter?

 

[Joe Dirt]

Oh man did I pick a bad time to come in here.

Shoowee things are going great

 

[Devo182]

I don't see HB in Athens.

Don't see players moving to play with HB. Not a single Marrietta player has shown a desire to play with him.

 

[snowvols]

Don't see players moving to play with HB. Not a single Marrietta player has shown a desire to play with him.

They did move to Marietta to play with him. Gilbert, White, even Jermaine Burton twice, but he couldn't get eligible.

 

[Catbone]

He's going to UGA to win a national championship next year. It's their best chance in a long time.

Meanwhile we are going to be fighting hard to get to a bowl game, which Fulmer probably thinks is the pinnacle of success. F*** this sorry *** program.
