Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[franklinpence]

We’re headed to the O&W game tomorrow. Looking forward to cheering for all the guys on the field.

Somehow NIL insulates these dudes from being labeled quitters. He just quit on his team. Call it what it is.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Who had Luke Altmyer as Tennessee’s starting quarterback in fall 2025? Anyone?

 

[Mrpeabody8888]

Probably leaving because they spelled his name wrong

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

I like Brooks

 

[RikidyBones]

Nicos pops read the summary of Art of the Deal and thought he transformed into Donald Trump. Stupid ass.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

You guys now understand why I hate all of this stupid .

Screw Nico...Screw em all....they are all nothing but sorry money grubbing scumbags.

I have not been around because I am sick of all this ... I will always love the Tennessee Volunteers and I hope we always do well...but these players man...

Nobody here wants to hear it and I don't want to argue about it anymore...so..

Does anybody here know if Rick Barnes was in Middlesboro Kentucky today supposedly talking to a LMU player?

Lots of folks in town were yapping about it today.

On the contrary, I think this will be a very popular sentiment on here for a while.

On3 on UT’s side. Said Nico’s camp is full of bad businessmen.

Listen at the 17:30 mark. Staples believes there will be a QB who enters the portal next week for UT that no one will see coming.

Cool Hand Luke

If I were Heupel, he wouldn't set foot on the field.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I know one thing for sure...the financial situation in CFB is absolutely untenable...this is wrong on every level...and..

I hope Nico rots.

 

[Grey_pilgrim]

Can a duck pull a truck??! Hell yeah! Loved the interaction with that fanbase when they were on our schedule.

Same. Had a great time when they came out here too

 

[Orangeburst]

heck play him and tell the D, forget his green jersey

not that he will be there

 

[BJWeeks]

I bet they let Jake air it out tomorrow

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Right before the spring game too. Heup’s gonna have to address it

This is where my mind went to, timing. It all reads ‘that I have all the cards and you don’t’ feel on his part on an important time. As a supervisor, it doesn’t sit well with me. I won’t post anything bad about him, because he’s still our QB, but letting them walk isn’t a bad thing when you consider the complete picture of your team. I hope it gets resolved one way or another quickly. The longer this is ‘leaked’ on negotiations the worse it’ll be for the program. One way or another, I’ve lost all respect for this. Just end.



Bass, great to see you back, if you are.

 

[peaygolf]

Nico would be #6 on that list

 

[DD4ME]

 

[Jimmy Football]

I don’t like the insinuation that Nico had no agency in this.

 

[Vol423]

I feel zero sympathy for Nico. Zero.

 

[Volunteer21]

Probably leaving because they spelled his name wrong

Man I want a really good qb to come in but also want to ride now with Merk but knowing there would be growing pains

 

[UTSuave’]

Faizon isn’t here. Not sure why he matters.

The staff knows what they have with their QB’s.

We’re talking about the “future” here shows zero confidence in the man behind Nico who’s been here putting in the work learning the offense…just like if Jake left and faizon was behind Jake,putting in the same work and then we go and get a portal qb over giving fazion the opportunity to prove himself…the dynamic of this is choosing someone who we never recruited out of high school in desperation filling a spot over building around someone who we have recruited for 4 years who we know and trust.not a good look JH needs to protect what he’s built..his persona is being a “players coach” so be that players coach.

 

[TheBigOne10]

Handlers and a damaging circle of influence.

 

[Orangeburst]

Nico got his own Worry Circle now
