Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Exactly. Attempting for a "home run" hire results in quite a few stirkeouts, especially at UT. We can't even bunt for a single with the 3rd baseball playing on the outfield grass. Let's hit a double on the gap (which Marrone would be) and then we at least got a runner in scoring position for the following coach.

Marrone would be a Fielders Choice

Except Marrone still isn't realistic because Fulmer and the boosters are idiots.

If this job opens up you better get ready. Marrone will be a significant candidate if not the top one

Thing is Mullen wants the NFL, and may be willing to OC to get there.

Yeah word is his wife wants to make out with a grown man for once in her life.

 

[jakez4ut]

we still have a head coach.

we'll know one of two ways....either pruitt hires an assistant or two, or he's gonna get fired.

if hes' gonna get fired, i can't for the life of me figure out why he hasn't been yet.

which leads me to believe he isn't.

 

[Batman1948]

Wow, Volnation at it's finest! In a matter of 6hrs, all of a sudden we are debating on who Marrone is going to bring in for his staff as the new HC.... Where the heck did this come from!?

Just like everything on here starts. Somebody gets fired and all of a sudden we have a coaching search again. Most people finally came around to the fact that Pruitt is still here and---BAMB---right out of left field we're hiring fired coaches.

If Mullen stayed at UF and we hired Herman we could have the coach who kisses his players before games vs. the coach whose wife kisses players before games.

Henry could lead the league in rushing yet again next year, especially if the defense improves and the Titans don't have to throw it as much to keep up. Henry has been a known quantity for a long time now and teams still can't stop him.

First repeat 2k rusher? I don't think he -can- but man I'd love to see him surpass Emmitt's career yardage. Sadly Henry's first 2 seasons here he didn't get anywhere near enough carries.

 

[therickbol]

I don't see marrone being a good hire. I also though Chip would kill it at UCLA, so that proves I have no idea what I am talking about.

If more posters/fans had your introspective outlook we wouldn't have to read quite as much dumb crap on here constantly.

Super spreader bowl.....errrrbody in the joint getting covid.

He also didn't have an O-line that allowed him build up the momentum he needs within his first 2-3 steps.

Henry is incredible, but he's more dependent than your average RB at having a path plowed for him. If he gets space to make his first 2-3 steps, he's basically unstoppable.

 

[tnvols72]

Are we firing or hiring today? I need to know so I cant get the right cap on.

 

[therickbol]

You have to consider the context, just like everything. The Jaguars had a GM, who also just got fired. So, it's not like an O'Brien situation where Marrone had sole discretion over personnel. Marrone took the Jags to a halftime lead against the Patriots in the AFC Championship game with Blake Bortles as QB. Then, in 2018, they dealt with injuries along with a regressing Bortles. In 2019, the GM traded away all of their Pro-Bowl type players. That's what you get. You will not succeed when your franchise decides to dump your best players and play for the #1 pick.

What?

He averaged 4.5 & 4.2 per carry in those first 2 seasons, even with that lesser OL he still would have went north of 1k with ease if ya get him 225 (14 a game) carries. Instead he had 110 & 176, best thing to happen to Henry was Vrabel coming to town and realizing what he had.

Disagree. IMO

If Pruitt is let go today or tomorrow the plan for marrone has been in place for a few weeks

It’s called lowering your standards. Has me wondering what some of the wives look like for those that have been tossing these names around.

Do me a solid. Don’t contemplate my wife.

What we really need is someone with ties to the SEC and NCAA leadership. Somebody who can get the people in charge on the phone and have some sway.

Then hire a solid OC/DC and a staff full of recruiters and go win games and compete with Bama.
