Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Bring my sweet darling kiffin home.

LOL, been waiting for this.

I will reply with my obligatory, **** no.

Ashley Smith - Assistant Athletics Director for Player Relations & Development - Staff Directory - University of Tennessee Athletics.

Lol thanks. My bad.

only real way to look at Steele is he is the coach until we get a new one. Could be weeks, could be 3 years.

But having Steele run this thing while we are on reduced scholarships and a 3 year bowl ban isn't that bad. Then we start fresh.

We really suck now.

If Steele is “acting HC” by spring practice we are truly a dead program.

I don’t understand how players can be mad. Their coach got caught red handed cheating.

Cause they’re not getting paid anymore

 

[give_him 6]

My sources told me that Basilio is full of crap.

He’s been accurate since November on all of this.

 

[Blake25p]

Don’t want Kiffin, can’t trust him.

I don’t understand how players can be mad. Their coach got caught red handed cheating.

Bc they got similar things at other schools

Charles Davis will be hired within the next two days, UT will be talking to Hugh Freeze this evening. Gus will be approached along with Napier.
One issue with Davis is a buyout from Fox sports.
I am not an insider, got a call from someone who is close with someone in the AD.
Money was payed to Mims, Toot, Mauer and Gray. Georgia and Michigan are part of this in some way.
The guy who called said he played travel baseball with Chadwell, talked with him last week and he had not been approached.
New AD will not hire the next coach, Plowman will.
Like I said, I am no insider. TIFWIW
Haslams want Freeze
Thunder wants Gus
Not sure who is pushing Napier

If UT paid money for Maurer, they needed to be caught. I was reading up to the point when you named Maurer as being paid

Where do these media guys get copies of termination letters? Did Pruitt just throw it in a trash can? The leaks over there are off the charts. UT needs to hire a plumber before they hire an AD and football coach.

It’s a public document, but they did get it rather fast.

 

[quadlee21]

I would hate to be a call screener tonight lol

 

[SweetasSoda]

Kiffin is gonna troll the **** out of us until the hire is made

Yes, and make half the fanbase unhappy with the hire.

 

[drvenner]

I've heard voice recordings on how college basketball coaches recruits. There are no gentleman's agreements in college recruiting. This is a fairy tale view of hoping things will end up alright.

You've heard recordings and Hank has lived it. I think I will roll with Hank.

[Volsfaninva917]

I would hate to be a call screener tonight lol

Bahahahaha

 

[Bigworm87]

Fulmer has to live with the fact that he brought in and let a bunch of bammers come in a absolutely nuke our program. Sad day.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Yes, and make half the fanbase unhappy with the hire.

If we hired Lane Kiffin and half the fanbase turns out unhappy, we don't deserve to win football games. Ever.

We'd be lucky to hire a coach as good as Kiffin with the NCAA on our ass now.

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

Everyone repeat with me, Steele is our next head coach.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Everyone repeat with me, Steele is our next head coach.

Don’t put that evil on us.

 

[give_him 6]

Would Kiffin bring back the hostess program while we are under NCAA sanctions?

 

[SweetasSoda]

Translation: "Kiffin has reached out to throw his name into the public discussion and leverage it for himself."

He wouldn't touch this program right now and I doubt the program would touch him. With Corral coming back, his stock will be even higher this time next year.

This is exactly what he is doing.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Don’t put that evil on us.

The boosted up his resume in the presser. Get ready...

 

[Kingston Vol]

Everyone repeat with me, Steele is our next head coach.

Nah, that's not a given at this point.

We're going to run a full search - if we strike out, Steele is there as the safety net.

 

[KokoBVol]

Last I'll say on this...

What exactly does he owe you, that he should answer your question with any answer, other than what he chooses? And since when does he owe you or anyone on here 100% transparency?

This ain't a deposition and you ain't an attorney so, as far as I'm concerned, he couldn've told you he was Peyton Manning himself and just sit back and laugh at you wet yourself over this obsession of yours.

You're the same type person who ran off every other kind of insider that decided to come on here and share just table scraps worth of information. Just sit back and take it for what it's worth, instead of whining like a petulant, self-entitled child that is owed the truth, just because you asked for it.

I have a 7 year old that whines less than you...and more honest too, Mr. Ban Bet. Now, go sit in a corner.

 

[VolMike16]

We could have done insignificant things such as the hotel room thing.

Oh, I'm sure but that post is basically saying we paid him lol. This staff probably has been paying these types of recruits.
