Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Jimmy Football]

On Richmond, per Memphismitch on VQ...

I wonder if he got a call from Liberty...

 

[Sleegro]

I’m veryyyy happy with Chaney. Would have been veryyy (one less y) happy with Enos too.

Would have jumped off a bridge with Lebby

Pretty sure that's what our whole debate boiled down too. You value certain levels of experience a lot more than I do. It all worked out though. Always knew it would. I guess I'll @ you when Lebby blows up soon.

 

[Kingston Vol]

I still don’t think it’s a given that Weinke is here next year.

 

[drvenner]

uh, i do. i was so "out" on Bowden a month ago.

boy...was i wrong. kid has been freaking awesome.....

Thanks for admitting your mistake. I wonder if @Big Gucci Sosa will also.

 

[TennGentry]

Per a VQ poster who works in AD... coach Kelly is leaving and has been pulled off the road recruiting today, should be official soon. Johnson is likely to go to LSU. Pruitt really likes Weinke, he doubts he leaves.

Then who moves to coaching defense to facilitate another offensive coach hire?

 

[Smokey123]

Seems like some big time programs that are interested in him. And people thought Memphis would be his only option.

Weird how teams would want a 5th year senior with 30 games worth of experience

Right now it's 6-5 defense so if that happened it could be 6-5 offense

Richmond’s softer than puppy sh!t. He won’t compete at any of these schools.

When is Weinke being pulled out so we can put Tee on to road to go visit Pickens?

Questions like this add fuel to my belief that Pruitt didn't want the Tee info out there yet

With Chaney as HC over offense and no individual position.

 

[SweetasSoda]

"The NCAA tried to play hard ball a few years ago by saying unless a terminally ill family member was involved they woudnt give out waivers and now they have relaxed that. It's their fault and I guess they just need to open it up to everyone now. All a kid needs now is a good lawyer and they are good to go. Might as well make it open for everyone"

This. If you have a kid that doesn't want to play for your school, he is taking up a scholarship that could be used on another player. However, I don't want to see wholesale transfers. Slippery slope no doubt.

So you could get back his scholarship to give to another recruit that would not count against the 25/year?

If he didn't, Chris Low wouldn't have reported it.

Neids has been a LB coach under Pruitt everywhere he's been except here, but he hasn't worked with safeties. Sherrer has worked with safeties, but with the success he's had with ILB at other places, there's no way he moves.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

What did I do? Bowden is playing really well. Looks like he is finally comfortable.

 

[Kingston Vol]

There could be a staff addition to the defensive side of the ball as well. We’ve all been focused on offense but it’s not out of the question.

Will also need someone to take over special teams duties.

Same here. Crow I'll gladly eat.

I think you posted in one of the games that he sucked. I could be wrong, though.

Nieds.

I'd like to think that's true. Just not convinced of that

 

[WriterVol]

Not to mention the 120 people who reported they were talking in the days leading up to it. Once it gets to the MOU or contract level, the bag doesn't stay in the cat. The only thing the coach can decide at that point is who gets to break it and that's if he's quick enough.

What have I missed? Why do we not like Weinke? What has he done wrong or hasn’t done?

He's the weak link on the staff imo. I want to keep DJ.

What's the contract amount ?
