Is the loss of recruits really bothering people that much?

[TrueOrange]

we dont know how good/bad this new coach will be. So losing alot of highly rated recruits, some of which appear to be much better than our players, who also may go to other teams in the SEC is kinda worrisome

funny it says commitments but only mentions one player

I talked with Marlon Browns coach. USC and Pete Carrol are now his #1. He did say he likes UT and will see who their coach is. He still wants to be a two sport player.

interesting...I had heard USC was no longer interested.

Cory Hall. I read it somewhere late last night. I don't have time right now but I can look for it again tonight if it's not added by then.

Cory Hall is to dumb to get into UT.

If they're only leaving b/c Fulmer won't be here, then I can personally live without them. It's time we get some people to start playing for the University of Tennessee and not Coach Fulmer, in my opinion.

Sorry if someone else already posted, but Branden Smith, Atlanta cornerback is out, citing Fulmer departure as reason.

yeah, he wasn't coming anyway

Branden Smith wasn't a commit. We were just on his list.

that is not realistic, considering we get most of our talent out of state, who come here because of the coaches. that is the one area where Fulmer shined.

That's fine, I don't want them.

OG Antonio Foster from Valdasta GA is now going to GaTech

Entry Not allowed

I can't see any big time recruit going anywhere until he sees who is going to coach next year. If he is that good, plenty of teams will find a spot for him.

 

[BNAVOL]

Because in all honesty, most of them wouldn't see the field for several years regardless of talent.
Just ask
1. Brandon Warren
2. Chris Walker
3. Vladimir Rhichards
4. Chris Donald
5. Ahmad Page
And many many others.....

Nope, because one way or another, this ship is going to get righted.

 

[misplaced_vol_fan]

A change had to happen. If that cost a few recruits then okay. Would you rather still have Fulmer?

Cory Hall was never considered to be a committ.

 

[dsbyrd]

Branden Smith wasn't a commit. We were just on his list.

I don't know if that is true or not, but let's assume it is.

We are now off his list, and the reason he cites is Fulmer's departure.

Whether you wanted CPF to go or not, let's not pretend there is no effect on recruiting.
