Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[JacketVol]

So what I am seeing here is if we pack Neyland and put a cap on age at 50 years old we will more than likely spread the virus and the death rate of the spread will be similar to less than that of the flu. I say less than that because of what we cannot measure in asympomatic cases.



That's all I have to see to say LET'S DO THIS![/QUOTE



That’s fine. Just give me all my money back since I am over 50 and you just took my choice away

 

[SoilVol]

I hope this is the snafu.

 

[ricepatty]

Having a practically full recruiting class already makes Graham’s punishment mostly negligible.

This and also COVID might push back the date (again) where no schools are allowed to perform off-campus recruiting so it's not much of a punishment.

I’m not a big **** talker. But I’ll take any of y’all on in a chili cook off. Ground chuck, chorizo, roasted jalepeno, Serrano, habenero and red peppers, 3 different beans, corn, tomato paste, onion, garlic, cumin, basil, lemon juice, cayenne, salt, pepper, franks hot sauce. But the key ingredient: chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. Get at me

If it has beans it’s not chili. Disqualified.

@Atlanta VOL is this CJG news the snafu?

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

I remember AV saying the longer the dead period continues to be extended due to COVID-19, the better it is for us. The CJG news must be why.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

ok so what does that mean?

Nothing. The only restriction on Graham is he can’t recruit on the road for 2020 which doesn’t hurt us.

On Graham news...

It wasn't a surprise to anyone at Tennessee. Tennessee will issue a statement on it in the next little bit.

Show cause doesn't affect Graham's ability to coach. Obviously means he can't go eval games on Friday nights and can't go in homes in December if the dead period is lifted.

off field snafu?

Gotta be.

 

[Devo182]

And what percentage of our biggest boosters are over 50? Gotta be 80-90% or more

If it has beans it’s not chili. Disqualified.

Wrong.

UT statement:

“During the process of hiring Coach Jay Graham, we were made aware of the circumstances at his previous institution, and we vetted it thoroughly in accordance with NCAA and SEC bylaws. We established and maintain extremely high confidence in Coach Graham’s commitment to compliance and are proud to have him on our staff.”

This must be the "snafu" AV mentioned.

 

[pismonque]

Hmmm. I wonder if anyone suspects this is the snafu AV mentioned....

 

[captainfalcon777]

Does anyone think this could be the ‘snafu’ that that ‘AV’ guy mentioned??

 

[Catbone]

This is not the snafu imo

Dang right, we stand by our guy.

 

[engineerVOL]

Talk about a snafu...

"All I will say is nothing will come out anywhere publicly until an investigation is complete. There is a chance in this circumstance it may disappear. There is also a chance it will end up being something significant and would result in a suspension or dismissal"

-ATL vol.

When I think of suspension or dismissal I think of a player, not a coach. JMO

 

[headhunter15]

Uh-oh.

 

[volsagain]

Dang right, we stand by our guy.

You're probably right, he want be suspended or dismissed. Pretty sure that was two of the possibilities .

 

[jdavis675]

On Graham news...



-Hubbs

Is this a situation where we can replace him on the trail whenever his 6 months clock begins?

If so let Chip Long loose and let’s ride.

 

[Neyland Law Vol]

Guys, is this CJG stuff the snafu we've been hearing about from AV?

That’s a good point

 

[ob79]

My thinking. We’ll see if AV confirms

I think the snafu got buried.
