Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[InVOLuntary]

I think fulmer stepping aside caught Plowman off guard. Im betting that started things
Over

I don't buy it. Fulmer was on the way out with Pruitt. The big folks on the hill knew this. I'd heard rumblings months ago.

Plowman is a ****** idiot...she is the executioner of this once proud..WINNING football program.

Choirboys don't win the SEC...

Really? Did TNStud take over this account?
I ask because you’re post today are about as tiresome and annoying as his.
This program hasn’t been proud or winning for years before she got here!
But she is having to handle a he## of a dumpster fire.
Why don’t you let it play out a little and see what actually happens before you freak out?

 

[BruinVol]

I think it’s highly implausible Fulmer stepped aside.

You may be right but it’s also possible him leaving and yea maybe forced to leave likely wasn’t known until the last few days

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I think it’s highly implausible Fulmer stepped aside.

I agree. I think Phil was given two envelopes this morning. One was firing papers. The other was a resignation letter.

 

[butchna]

Ray is pissed guys

Tennessee Stud has spoken.

 

[m1al]

Evidently, Neids can’t even really recruit. At least not without a checkbook.

I believe it was a credit card..... don't forget to save the receipts...

Dumbasses......

 

[Orangeredblooded]

We are ******

Miss your vacation pictures. A lot of us that don’t get to take vacations, could use them, especially now.

His quote was the job wasn’t winnable. A good coach made it winnable. A bad coach lost a lot there. That’s all that should be said about it.

When Steele was coach there the spread wasn’t a thing to level playing field. Briles succeeding by bringing in a system that can win with inferior players. Last time we judged Steele for previous job it was the bowl game for Clemson and Dooley was forced to hire someone else as DC otherwise Dooley may have been coach here a while with Chaney/Steele combo.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Lol

He was “one of us” for one damn year and bolted. In that year he was such a great “one of us” that he put up USC **** all over the complex

F Him

Were u ignored and beaten as a child? Chill out dude. Post something positive at least once

 

[HankHill]

You buddies with Steele AP?

-AP

If your coaching candidate has the tag “with a strong staff” attached to him.... you shouldn’t even waste the time to interview him.

Im saying I think they may have known he was on the way out but also assumed he was going to be involved with the hire first

I think they had marrone and steele ready to go

This is a link to a post on a Texas board summarizing what went wrong with Tom Herman. Worth a read, even though it doesn't get into any of the real salacious stuff that is floating around out there about his behavior off the field. Most of that is message board stuff, so hard to tell how much to believe. Probably the straw that broke the camel's back was how Herman handled The Eyes of Texas issue, which wouldn't be an issue that would follow him to Knoxville.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think Herman would be an upgrade over what we've had, but I still have concerns about his maturity levels for a big job like this, and he needs to do some self-scouting about how things broke down for him at Texas. I think if he does that, he can have a successful second act. He reminds me a lot of where Lane Kiffin was when he got fired by USC.

Tom Herman Fired as UT Football Coach

Give me Obrien or marrone and I’ll be Happy

[Volnut]

Giving keys to Steele would just be a lateral move to another assistant who has no HC experience. They been there done that and bought that 4 million dollar T-Shirt. lol

Oh he has HC experience, try 4 Years, 9-36 at Baylor.

 

[captainfalcon777]

Ray is pissed guys

Uh oh, this could be a life threatening mission for Ray and team

 

[Nashvegas31]

I think that too. No way Steele gets job unless NCAA stuff is really really bad.

Dozens of violation level 1 is really bad so.......

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Herman would be a great hire at this point but he had issues with boosters at TX. How would that work out here?

Didn’t Saban have problems with boosters? I am not saying he is Saban. But what were the problems?

 

[jordan4vols]

So Ad by end of month maybe. Coach a few weeks after that according to Hubbs

 

[InstrumentalVol]

Marrone Camp taking a huge L here with Bruin's endorsement.

Lol. Did you miss where the Haslams are behind Plowman?

 

[Rizzo924]

I don't think this theory holds up with your previous theory of a "coup."

 

[BruinVol]

Lol. Did you miss where the Haslams are behind Plowman?

no AV made that part very clear about a month ago. That was the same time he was lying about not being a booster too

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

It's unbelievable man. They're going to hire Steele. I waive the white flag. We're a dead program now.
