Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[TrippieRedd]

Crouch realized he wasn't going to start elsewhere lol

 

[Sleegro]

The player mutiny thing definitely changed my mind on him. If players were telling recruits not to come, that’s a big no from me

Herman sucks.

 

[jpope9]

JJ and Gray?

Long post incoming... This is a completely non scientific just for fun thing. But most coaches have their big coming out parties and hit their stride in year 2 or 3. Because Kiffin has only been at Ole Miss one year, I am using his record at FAU. Here are some stats from our possible HC hires, and their offense and defensive improvements made in year 2 of their jobs. Also included are top 25 games and total HC record. Who do you want?

Lane Kiffin

Total vs top 25: 4-17 (19%)

And I disagree. Many of the black candidates interviewed are an afterthought. I find it insulting. Maybe, maybe it served a purpose at first. But now, it's just a joke. How many times have you heard of a candidate being interviewed "just to satisfy the Rooney Rule"? I hear it a lot, and it seems demeaning IMO. It's like they're saying, "you don't really deserve this, but because you're black ...". It's like a perpetuation of passive racism.

I get what your saying. Typically I would agree. But I’ve seen a few interviews where owners did the interview because they had to. Came away impressed and it set them up for promotions on down the road. I don’t it’s terrible to force an interview. Force a hire. Whole different conversation.

 

[jpope9]

Henry and Gray.

I'd allow that!

 

[Kingston Vol]

I know y'all **** on Jimmy but this is the first mention of Dykes that I've seen. Worth monitoring.

Napier & Campbell really stand out when you look at it this way. Campbell's win % against top 25 is incredible given the program he's doing it at.

 

[butchna]

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Adam Sandler - HC
Kevin James - OL/DL

Sandler would really make the offense Click. He’d be making Mullen and Smart call him Big Daddy.

 

[TrippieRedd]

JJ and Gray?

JJ and Crouch

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Not sure if this has been posted 8 times already but my sources indicate that two starters who entered the portal will re-enroll at Tennessee.

Expect the names to be released soon.

TIFWIW

 

[jakez4ut]

I know y'all **** on Jimmy but this is the first mention of Dykes that I've seen. Worth monitoring.

VQ, hubbs, mentioned him yesterday.

I dont like how his offense got worse though.

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Sonny Dykes is an interesting one.

 

[VolInNorthCack]

Hammering Hank Aaron just passed away, 86 yo.

He will always be the true Homerun king. F Barry Bonds.

 

[butchna]

Wildcard: Cristobal

He wants back in the south and is pulling 5 stars out to Oregon, has them looking pretty good and won Pac-12 coach of the year.

If he wanted back that bad, why extend when he was Auburn’s sole target and reason for firing Malzahn?

 

[Volsfaninva917]

I know y'all **** on Jimmy but this is the first mention of Dykes that I've seen. Worth monitoring.

Lol no

 

[BruinVol]

Boom

 

[volbeast33]

Henry and Gray.

Maybe they have an idea what we are doing?

 

[Volfanatic_20]

BOOM!
