Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[volfan1631]

I love Tennessee!

i think you are obsessed

 

[MarcoVol]

it’s time to just trot out whoever our next coach is... each hour this goes is just less and less time to recruit our current players in the portal, keep some form entering the portal, grab other players form the portal, try and recruit the last 2 days. Get a plan together for staffing, get a plan together for spring practice, a S&C program running. We should have done this crap in December yet we are UT and always late to the party. February is closing in and we don’t even have a clue who will coach us in March when practice starts.

I’m sure no one has thought of this.

Thank you for bringing this to DW’s attention.

The Dan Patrick story has been blown out of portion. We were not handing out bags with thousands of dollars

IF the story is true in the first place I think you’re right. Could see somebody thinking it was cute to throw $100 of walking around money into a gift bag for visiting players. And some narc saying whoa is me once some pressure got applied.

I was raised a tennessee fan, but I’m 25. I don’t know anything but losing.

I'm 34. I was lucky enough to see the Manning years and the National Championship.

Yo @TrippieRedd can you get my man @KPT_VFL a blunt or something?

 

[pierce60]

And can we stop tagging Atlanta Vol in posts. He hasn't posted anything in almost 72 hours. My guess is that he's been told to hush just like everyone else around the AD.

 

[WebbCobb]

No it’s not fair to put an immature playboy who has since grown up a great deal in the same boat with a head coach who told his players to delete evidence of a brutal gang rape. They aren’t in the same hemisphere in terms of character flaws.

Do we know the deletion thing is true? I read that a friend of one of the accused “believed Franklin asked players to delete the video”. Hardly an iron-clad case. Though, maybe the possibility is enough of a red flag

 

[TN-POSSUM]

If it is will healy, I think we should allocate majority resources to basketball and make the commitment to be a basketball school. Yeah we’ve had a bad couple of games, but that’s where our athletic departments future is. Football is dead

More From Soerner:

The source of last night’s information that we have two finalists and an offer out came through a booster to my friend. My friend also has clients on staff, and clients who are boosters. Neither were the source from last night.

I’m probably not going to do Q&A this morning. I’m committed to hearing anything material that I can share.

I’ll happily return to this and share what I know on these topics later.

I know @Atlanta VOL said he’d be silent but if we don’t hear any news today I think we are scrambling way down our list. His silence worries me.

Good grief dude...your constant negativity is getting old to even us and and we are a forum full of battered vol fans.

I did just get some stuff shipped from Cali. Called "Big Apple"

There's scum on every campus in America, again I'm not defending the guy but UT fans really need to drop the holier than thou attitude. The Schiano moral protest lost all credibility when people attacked Dave Doeren and his family on twitter, so that needs to stop.

I actually loathe #VolTwitter. I wish VolTwitter, would also do some good like how Bills Mafia donates to charities of opponents. We just attack people and win twitter polls.

Atleast u was alive for a championship...imagine being a UGA fan

 

[BigSteve09]

Depends on what his second card is (7, 8, King of Hearts) with position. Might be a good play from the small blind or big blind.

I was thinking spades because I am obviously prison trash lololol

Imagine if it is Franklin and the fan base revolts AGAIN. No sum of money would be enough to get anyone to come to town. We will officially be a dead program, and it finally would be the fans fault as the media loves to say.

 

[JerryVolunteer]

There is no reason to freak out. Noone knows what Danny is doing. He likes things to be private and he has proven he knows what he is doing. This isn't the typical Vol coaching search. Let the guy work.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

The lack of nugs in this search has had been agitated for a week, ha. It's like a huge anticipation without ever knowing when the end is coming. I really hope it closes out today (tomorrow at the latest) so I can get some real work done lol.

 

[Dudleys87]

We’re just one group imagine being a high level donor and DW stone walls you. When In the past you’ve been able to get info.

 

[Blake25p]

This coaching search hasn’t been nearly as fun as the other 3.

 

[volinbama256]

I completely agree. Lots of delusional folks. No amount of money will get us the top head coaches in this disaster. (Campbell, Fickell, Fleck)

What are you going to do if we announce one of these options?

 

[Sleegro]

I don't see ANYONE talking about Franklin

Ummm? Do you have to ignore yourself now?

 

[KeyVol14]

I would hope we have a decision by tmmrw. NSD is Wednesday

 

[ALStateLineVol]

I'm beginning to think UT does coaching searches ever couple years for our entertainment. Nothing like a TN coaching search to get the adrenaline flowing.

 

[Power T-Rev]

This never gets old. These posts are the only thing keeping this forum sane. lol
