Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[LA Vol]

Man, you guys trashed the football team all season and now you're trashing the basketball team that is 10-2. Where are you going next? Oh, I know----my money is on the new AD and football coach-------classic

Fear not. WBB plays once-rival UConn tomorrow and that will be a fitting wrap to this week's Volunteer trifecta.

Lane is the hire to make with what's going on, the more I think about it.

LOL

 

[mr.checkerboards]

He's not the ideal choice, but he's a better choice than some of the names that have been floated out there. If he sets the program back a decade, I'd hate to see how far they would set us back.

What school is out there banging down the door for him? Just like those who say look Marrone and O'Brien are only assistant coaches at our rivals what about Chadwell? Auburn didn't chase him hard, S Car nope, Vandy nope. He would've been there next year, and the year after. There's a reason schools let him say nah and then quickly moved on.

Ainge good grief man

 

[BruinVol]

Prob doesn’t matter. Coordinators can usually leave for HC jobs bc it’s a promotion

Not without paying a buyout

 

[Dudleys87]

Hope it's Chadwell because from my perspective it's either him or Steele. Both are very risky.

They aren’t handing the keys to Steele. That’s not winning that’s settling.

Who knows what Chadwell will do.

I’m just glad it’s not O’Brien or Marrone

Randy Boyd said this isn't a place to learn on the job and he wants a proven winner, Steele doesnt even come close to being in that conversation

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Hopefully Marrone and BOB end up with Bama. Both would be atrocious here as HC.

I don't understand the BOB hate

Settling is what we do

 

[SLICKYINC]

Right behind you

You’re better than that, be a leader.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Ainge good grief man

Dude needs to move on, he's not who he thinks he is anymore

 

[eVOLve]

Ainge good grief man

I like Ainge but he can go from zero to dumbass in a hurry.

 

[butchna]

Thank gawd he'll win the press conference. That's all that matters.

Not “all” but it’s the first thing we see...and players recruits et al. Long journey one step kind of thing.

He could say the same about Chadwell. He could say Chadwell doesn't have any experience in the power 5 even as a coordinator. That isn't proven experience. Meanwhile Steele has been in the game and the SEC for 150 years. He has tons of experience. That's the spin

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I'm actually expecting Bill O'brien

I'd despise that. Look what he did to the Texans. If we're going play Risk, might as well get an energetic, young offensive guru in here like Chadwell. I cannot possibly imagine BOB going well. If it's BOB or Chadwell, give me the AP Coach of the Year.

Neither does lane or chadwell

BOB only one that it fits imo

 

[butchna]

Like us...cept he’s on the air.

 

[BigSteve09]

Tremendous negative energy on here today.

Now I'm rootin for Kiffin even more just to see Ainge back peddle!!!

I just didn’t want to repost what I said before. You really think Plowman and Boyd are gonna trot out a Fulmer guy? After they gave him two choices get fired or step down. I know your down about things but you know that would never happen otherwise getting rid of Fulmer was pointless

 

[LA Vol]

I think its very telling what others think of this staff. If these guys were we'll thought of they've gone yesterday. Ansley can't find work. Weinke can't find work. Its was a way overrated staff.

Even Chaney would be gone if he'd been ZOOMed an offer and they'd sent a limo.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

I fully expect us to walk Steele out.

*ahem*

Trot out

 

[BruinVol]

BOB was a bad Gm

A very good coach

And did a great job with penn state in crisis.
That’s the most important part to this

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Like we aren’t used to that?

I don’t see how you see him as a failure before he even coached a down at UT

Mullen, Smart, Stoops, Saban are laughing at how little work they're going to have to do to stop him

 

[TheDeeble]

Independent & Big East have never been Power 5 though...

Power 5:
Big 8 (Big 12)
Big Ten
ACC
SEC
PAC12

I don't know what the guy on the radio was considering. Pittsburgh today is a P5 football school in the ACC. Back then they weren't. But some schools in Independant back then wouldn't have been under the P5 umbrella, even though they were competitive football schools.
