Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[UpstateVol613]

Maybe it's not the talent or coaching and it's the expectations that are out of whack.

People must have short memories. I’m glad we have Barnes. The way people talk they act like we we’re blue bloods Duke or UNC. We actually had a head coach leave us to go to Cal. All the perspective you need.

Justin Thomas, other PGA golfers decide to honor Tiger Woods in the exact same way

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

But with six straight wins over Auburn...lol.

And lots of losses to kentucky...

 

[butchna]

Wonder why we haven’t heard anything think they would be trying to get all coaches hired so the could be working together

How much work does ST’s do together before spring practice?

You’d think he died with the way people are acting.

You’d think he died with the way people are acting.

He’s never going to play pro level golf again. Even he starts, his career is over.

This kid is going to absolutely slay in Heupel’s system, and I’m here for it.

Top 10 salary in basketball for averaged-out top 25 results.

Top 15 football salary and we have finished top 25 twice since Fulmer. Not once in the top 20.

So...yeah, I'll take the Barnes situation all day!

Exactly. And no drama at all around the program. Just “set it and forget it” for middle-of-the-pack or better in the SEC, with an auto win over UK, every year. Sounds good to me.

What’s this about @Bassmaster_Vol

 

[OrangenSC]

When is the last time a Tenn team actually overachieved relative to expectations?

Well, considering how often fans’ expectation are unrealistic, I’d say probably never. At least as it relates to fans’ expectations.

Thought he might coach other position also, but I guess it depends on who it is

Jean-Mary can run the same drills if the new hire ends up also coaching OLB’s.

The only way you fire Barnes is if you have someone lined up to take the job.

An up & comer would be the risky choice unless White could magically get Nate Oats or somebody like that.

Texas did that. And they went significantly downhill. This year Texas and Tennessee are about even, except that Texas is a media darling and is ranked much higher with only a slightly better record.
We’ve been in a wasteland of basketball for a long time. I will ride with our current coach.

I have 4 dogs. Love them all. 2 labs, 1 Weimaraner, and 1 Terrier. Cats are pets. Dogs are family

We have 2 dogs and 3 cats. All 5 are family. Have had to put down a 20 yo dog, a 15 yo dog and our 15 yo cat passed in his sleep. It’s been a very rough year.

Good players make good coaches. Look no further than Dabo Sweeney.

I used to fish every weekend. I’ve not done as much in the last 5 years. Those big ones tore me up. It’s an adrenaline rush for sure

I don’t catch big bass like those very often.

However, it’s just as fun to catch small ones.

They are like children.I had to have one euthanized a few years ago and it really hurt.

Sorry man. I had to put my 13 year old black lab down recently also. I had her since before I was married as well, they are like a member of the family.
