is there any new recruits that are int. in the Vols since Sal has taken over. Just trying to figure out if there is a big fish we might be able to get with his experience and being 2011 recruiter of the year!! any high profile names that signed with bama not int in the vols!...JW GO VOLS!!:loco:
Best job he's done so far is locking up what we already had coming in. Bonner will be a guy we get because of CSS though. I personally think he'll impact the 2013 class more than anything. Feels good to have two closers(Dooley and Sunseri) on staff though. With Hinshaw, Graham, and Joseph doing a lot of the dirty work.
I agree. '13 is when Sal will have the biggest impact. This late in the game it is hard for him or any new coach to have a big impact. Obviously he has had an impact with Bonner which is huge. But McCullers was done weeks before Sal was hired. I think we'll see Pittman also become a major factor in '13 compared to these last few weeks.
I just wish they were bringing in a defensive line coach that has a good recruiting reputation. Tennessee cannot afford to bring in just a "good coach" who doesn't double as a good or even solid recruiter. It would suck to replace Lance Thompson with someone that can't do any damage out on the recruiting trail.
That's why Saban kicks ass on the recruiting trail. He has good recruiters all over his staffs. CLT didn't recruit well here because you're not getting an Alabama kid if Bama or the Barn are good. This state isn't like Tennessee. Everyone here (except for me lol) are either Tide or Tiger fans. CLT is good in the state of Bama evident with Shanks. Watch CLT blast back up the recruiter rankings since he can recruit with freedom under Saban in T-town. I hope our new guys can recruit. Heard Palermo is looking like the D-line coach.
SN: who is Pittman?????
