Just lost 3 commits

Let the spin begin. The Negas can't possibly be right...whether they've heard the coach is leaving, or it's the inevitable fallout from substandard coaching that has been predicted.

It must be academic issues....or something.

LOL.

And how do you know it's not? Just curious. Are you employed by Tennessee?

 

[xpsyclonex2002]

What the f*** did you think was going to happen if every message board in the country is running our coach into the ground?

 

[fade route]

This. But the folks who enjoy a good meltdown will ignore it.

Don't knock meltdowns, it's like a bar fight and no one gets hurt. Win-win

We have been saying this for a year or better. Recruiting would begin to drop as Jones' sales wouldnt work if he couldnt deliver. Coaches eat this up on the recruiting trail.

Completely irrelevant to this thread.

Some of you guys are absolutely pathetic. This BS is worse than a bunch of gossipy school girls.

The Vols are over committed

 

[Biopsyman]

Someone will say to make room for a big fish 2 star that does a lot of community service

 

[volfan102455]

Thanks. You don't know Bishop Sullivan though. It's ok. Don't pay attention to my whole post. Just what you want.

I did pay attention - but regardless of what high school - for the most part UTK requires a high B GPA and around a 25 on the ACT to ensure admission to most major areas within the university. Plus there is a core set of classes they must have completed. Yes there are exceptions made but they no longer accept just anyone and some areas may have the GPA acceptance level lower.

When I applied and was accepted years ago the GPA was a solid C with I believe a 19 on the ACT.

If a kid de-commits because of message board content then he is in for a big shock the first bad game he has at his new school.

Agreed. I've never seen so many grown cry babies in my life.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Cotman was obviously told to look around.

So your argument is we cut two of our precious few four stars to make for something higher?
Wouldn't a rational man dump some threes?
Butch's chart may be saying to drop the highest rated players but as usual likely not a great play

 

[CrunchingTheVolz]

Don't understand what everyone is worried about. Recruiting has been top notch this year. I mean so we lost a couple 4*, we got a couple left. No worries. Best staff in America got this.

It doesn't matter what they're ranked if they can't qualify. Besides, we had to take both to get a certain one.

 

[jtupnsmoke]

Agreed. I've never seen so many grown cry babies in my life.

So we purge two 4 stars? It would make more sense if a bunch of 3 star's started decommiting, but 4's are the highest we have so far.

 

[ReaderVol]

Yep, it couldn't possibly be Butch's fault for blowing the SEC EAST

Not saying one way or the other. Again 30 FACTS shouldn't scare you. Did a recruit NOT JUST SAY this?
Answer? Yes he did. Again fact

Soon. Right?

 

[GwinnettVol21]

Butch to Purdue doesn't make sense. They aren't going to match his salary or pay his buyout. Butch to Oregon is my guess. Helfrich had a meeting with the AD tonight according to a couple sources. Phil Knight could take care of Butch if thats who they really want.

 

['Boro-vol]

And how do you know it's not? Just curious. Are you employed by Tennessee?

LOL...no, are you? If not, how do you know it is?

You see, we've been saying this would happen....and now you can almost set your watch by it. But we're probably wrong because you want us to be.

Keep pushing that nonsense.

 

[amillz]

This is only the beginning..... We really need DT depth and Corners so this is bad..

 

[Top Gun]

Being recruited over. It will be fine. Should finish between 10-13 final standings

In your dreams! When 2 of your 5 four star recruits decommit on the same night, that is the start of a mass exodus. There will be more. Say goodbye to Trey Smith probably.

 

['Boro-vol]

Soon. Right?

About Gruden? No idea. About Butch? I certainly hope so.

 

[AllVolForLife_16]

Stop. Not happening. Butch is here next year. We have to accept it.

BS. He gone. Just wait and see.

 

[grobin4300]

I'm sorry but I think this is the beginning of the end for jones and co.
The negative recruiting I'm sure is insane: failure to develop talent, hot seat coach, current players jumping ship, previous players dogging the coach, poor game time decision making, questionable coordinators.....
Our recruiting is going to take a major hit.

Fleas are jumping off the dog

SPOT ON...........110% agreed and coaches in the SEC are poaching recruits as we speak.......they are calling Jones a lame duck coach for 1 year....
