Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[volfaninpa]

Maybe the SEC is kicking Vandy out?

 

[butchna]

What if its, Saban retires and we have allowed Bama to hire Hugh Freeze?

They’ll pass and welcome back Cristobal.

 

[MrVolton]

Marrone is not a good coach, though.

His college record suggests otherwise. Look at where Syracuse was for the 5 years before he took over, and where he got them. Just because he’s not a good NFL coach doesn’t mean he’s not a great college coach. Take Nick Saban for instance. I think Marrone or O’Brien either one would do very well here.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Not sure who this poster is but....... I can see it happening from TOS

Basketball suspended til January 1 supposedly. Doing conference schedule only.

 

[I4Jay]

An executive can compound a mistake by not having a "what comes after" plan. It's quite possible to replace a turd with dung in that scenario.

True.
The ship is taking on water, you can sit there and hope it stops or take steps to fix it.
Getting rid of the problem is the first step. This program can’t get much lower than it is.
A blow out loss to Kentucky in a year where they’ve already fired staffers lol
Losing by 3 TDs to Bama, Florida and Georgia every year...
we loss truck loads of assistants Bc the head coach.
In a year, we’ll be replacing the entire staff at more cost than cutting ties now.
There’s nothing redeeming about the currrnt situation.

Hopefully it’s Sankey announcing the government experiment involving UT football over the last decade plus is over.

For those who don't frequent the FF, not sure if this person knows, but this is most likely tbh

"I have to be a bit careful since I have media ties but it is supposedly about basketball AND football.

They are going to cancel all remaining football games since Bama and Florida are playing for the SEC Title anyway. And basketball is going on hiatus until mid-January. When it returns it will be conference only play and possibly some weekends in a bubble."

 

[rekinhavoc]

@nicksjuzunk you had any trouble getting a myprotein order? Ordered on 11/27 and it still hasn't even shipped.

1st time this has happened to me . They are usually really quick with the shipping.

 

[Dudley Smith]

Redefines the definition of trash.

WVU was a pass first offense that out-scored everyone, and lost their QB, top two WR's, and best offensive lineman. It was going to be a rebuilding year even if Holgo stuck around. Athlon had them predicted at #58 in the country going into the 2019 season.

From Hubbs

"There's all kinds of speculation out there. I don't think it's going to be bad news. I think if it were a schedule change or some kind of postponement they wouldn't promote it. They would just announce it. We know TV contracts are being finalized. There's been talk of loans to schools. So we will see."

 

[VolOld]

Local to Knoxville? Hibachi Burger in Oak Ridge. Their Atomic Burger is like the 98 Volunteer Football team..... perfect.


Fastfood- Krystals ... off grill, add cheese.

Burger Master in Townsend. Awesome burgers.

Same here. It's just odd for them. I'm sure they are backed up but dang I'm gonna have to run to sams or something and get a thing of protein to hold me over.

we need some bigly loans for a new coach

 

[volatil]

I hope we borrow a billion dollars

 

[KB5252]

If the Tennessee football team was a race horse we would have been humanely put down by now.

So technically the gump won't get his signature win against Vandy and we get to fire him.

 

[volfaninpa]

That's what I thought. Get the loan from the SEC and make the needed coaching move.

 

[HankHill]

-Freeze
-Rhule
-Campbell
-Sark
-Napier

That's the list

Rhule? The coach of the panthers? Lol

So the SEC is gonna loan us money to fire Pruitt? Nice.

 

[MrVolton]

It makes no sense to fire Pruitt, unless you have a guy lined up ready to take the job. And at this point I don't think the options available are worth it. That may change, but given the current pool of coaches, I don't see it.

If the recruiting class keeps bleeding out, I think anyone -including an interim- would be worth the change.

Oh no.... if they're shutting down football. They need to shut it all down. No more games and no championship game. List the 2020 SEC Champions as *COVID-19.


This season didn't "count" anyways

Still...c’mon! “Trash”? Sell us some insurance and buy us dinner.

 

[vol494]

Where the hell is Kingston? Doesn’t he have media ties? When you need him, he’s no where to be found.
