Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[VolGee4]

I’m trying not to get too attached to UT baseball. Being a fan has tought me when you expect the best that Tennessee will mess it up.

Vitello is a great coach. You timid fans have to root for your teams. He’s done more in 3 years than UT baseball has done in the previous 10.

Co-Champion, cute how everyone forgets that.
Yeah Pearl got this school to #1
Individual award, like I gaf about that

Champion is champion

I said more than 1 week...I believe Bruce had the 1 week hitter iirc. Lost to Vandy.

Ok...don't care about development. Still an accomplishment, despite your preferences.

No, I think hes fortunate to play in a weak ass conference

......... please say you’re joking

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I think several of us have realized how stupid you're acting.

No, I dont respect Gonzaga at all

 

[VolGee4]

Probably more than you think. Just need an X's and O's guy who is good November- Early April rather than a guy good from End of Season- Mid Feburary.

BS. You have to recruit...that’s the bottom line.

So Nate Oats (who you referenced earlier) wasn’t a good coach until this season at Bama then?

Don't make promises you don't plan on keeping.

I like this except if I could only make a very small correction here. The word several should have been most.

 

[OrangenSC]

Multiple, Barnes doesnt leave campus to recruit and only sees the kids when they get to TN. Doesnt talk to HS coaches either.

That’s just straight up not true. Either you’re lying or you’re misinformed.

 

[LA Vol]

So when the older fans are gone, and the younger dont care anymore, then and only then will they realize how stupid they are. Got it

That demo shift is already happening. Has been for a while.

 

[butchna]

Rooting for the Denton boys or other side of tracks?...

Yes

 

[Catbone]

Rick Barnes is a damn good coach in November and December. No question. Next?!

Fyp

 

[Catbone]

UT has "right way" coaches in all the major sports-- men's and women's. The only change on the horizon is probably Ralph Weekly retiring in softball... and co-HC Karen will step right in. UT is planning to ride with this lineup for a while.

Because they're scared of hiring new blood who wants to win at all costs (like most other SEC teams try to do) aren't they? They don't want the NCAA up their butts.

The downward trend in tennessee athletics continues.

This “downward trend” narrative regarding men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, and softball is false. It just is. We underachieved this year in basketball BECAUSE of Rick Barnes. Get over it.

Bball has not trended downward.

Football can’t trend down any lower.

Baseball is trending up.

 

[Govolsman98]

This is how I felt watching the game

 

[KPT_VFL]

Seems like all our insiders have become downers. Which may be good because win they feed us hope it’s usually wrong.

The NCAA is already up our butts-- has been since early December. Admin feels they have the kind of coaches they want in all the marquee sports and are going to give them the leeway to build/rebuild/establish/grow their programs. UT wants stability and integrity in its core programs and leadership feels they have it. Win at all costs? No.

 

[drvenner]

SEC champion.
Coached 2x SEC POTY
#1 Team in the country for a month (have we EVER been #1 for more than 1 week...EVER?)

Yeah...he hasn't added anything...BS

Come on man. It's easy to get to the Sweet 16. All we need is a coach who understands schematics.

 

[thistime]

Soooooo whats been going on tonight....anything out of the ordinary ? We had TACO'S !!!! The party never stops....living the dream baby, LIVING THE DREAM !!!!

 

[OrangenSC]

You miss 100% of the shots you dont take

What? You miss 0% of the shots you don’t take. Nice sounding quote made famous by Wayne Gretzky, but it’s illogical.

 

[govols24]

F Rick Barnes and his BS culture. That culture got you bounced out by sister Jean and Matt effing painter when you had arguably the most talented team in Tennessee history. Meanwhile, DJ Burns is out here balling on Villanova. Would have been nice to have him today and all year.

Do you just copy and paste your posts to fit on any football or basketball discussions?

You simply can not win championships like this. Most other SEC schools don't opporate this way wouldnt you agree?
