Kiffin allegedly tells recruit he will be "pumping gas"/denies it (merged)

A peek into recruiting with South Carolina's Jeffrey - SEC - ESPN

To make a long story short, Jeffrey took his visits to South Carolina and Tennessee, and the Trojans never quit recruiting him.

"He tried his best to talk me out of it, but my mind was made up," said Jeffrey, who still refers to Carroll as "Pete."

Kiffin was equally dogged. But when it was obvious that Jeffrey wasn't going to Tennessee, Kiffin took off the gloves.

According to Jeffrey and Wilson, Kiffin told Jeffrey that if he chose the Gamecocks, he would end up pumping gas for the rest of his life like all the other players from that state who had gone to South Carolina.

Jeffrey was doing his best to stay awake at that point, but that comment from Kiffin woke him up. He clearly hasn't forgotten it, either.

"He said it, but it's not worth talking about," Jeffrey said.

Ok, so if it's not worth talking about, then why r u talking about this then, you foolio?? :crazy:

Heisman players are always from championship teams which says the hype of a player can depend on which team they are on. I believe though, having great players around helps to boost one's game.

 

[4everaVol]

I guess the truth must hurt...that's why he had to tell Low

I can't remember the last time I saw a full service gas station attendant.

 

[rmsmith]

Maybe he meant the person working the register.........or maybe in SC, they still do it that way, bc/ they are so backwards.........:lolabove:

i think kiffin has sparked more interest in the offseason for ut in 2 months than fulmer did his entire career here.

There's a full service station on the corner of Kingston and Northshore.

 

[ladyVOLfan333]

not worth talking about, but he suddenly remembers a month later? :whistling:

 

[615 Vol]

I can't see Kiffin telling him that.

 

[utmba93]

Kiffin is THE man! :rock:

Jeffery could be working side-by-side with ihateorange and Giles...

Kiffin is really doing what he can to energize every team you play. First he calls Meyer a cheat. Then he says that all the players for South Carolina end up pumping gas.

What's next with this guy?

Man, if he doesn't deliver and damn quick, its going to get ugly up there.

 

[tidwell]

I can't remember the last time I saw a full service gas station attendant.

Well... have you been to South Carolina lately?

(Nothing against SC, just wondering if the reason you can't remember is because you haven't been to SC ever/lately)

LG, you've got to admit, this is more fun than we've had in Knoxville in a while.

As for who's next, I'm hoping he takes a swipe at Les Miles.

We've got two here in Nicholasville. Poochie Burton owns one and Sid East owns the other. I don't use either, they're more expensive.

Without the full conversation and context this is meaningless.

It'll be an even shorter version on the ESPN ticker.
