Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Kingston Vol]

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

Why does that matter?

 

[appyvol]

Late to the party, but if you don't pull for Tennessee in football, basketball, baseball, softball, tennis, track, soccer, rowing, water polo, and underwater basket weaving you may not be a real Tennessee fan. Jmo.

It’s Bruin

 

[VFL23]

All of that makes some sense. Kelly getting a promotion, Johnson going home and despite what a lot of people assume, Pruitt likes Weinke. Okay that last part came out wrong. Pruitt wants to hold onto Weinke. Never mind. I give up.

lol
Reminds me of Coach Billy Joe Tom Bob Parker back in the day when he was picking a Florida-Florida State game and said, "We'll see if Spurrier's Johnson comes up bigger than Bowden's Weinke."

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

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

Didn't want to get up in time for the job.

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

It's a no-lose situation for them. He is gone after a year, and he has experience in the SEC. Also, other coaches think they can always "coach up" talent.

 

[VolGee4]

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

I saw my connection to Memphis football, and he confirmed report about DJ possibly going to LSU or Auburn. Auburn's new OC, Dillingham, is the connection there.

He said he was told that DJ did not get enough interest from Louisiana kids while here. But, we agreed that he's a very good coach.

Yeah, he doesn’t seem to be a great recruiter, but he’s a good coach. So if he’s the move we’ve still upgraded with Tee

How did George Cafego rate as a recruiter, Stu Aberdeen?

 

[BruinVol]

Why does that matter?

It matters about as much as most of the talk on here. Not much

But since you ask, it matters that it's a
Confusing time for recruits knowing who their position coach is going to be

 

[beneVOLence]

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.

LOL

 

[SeanJean]

Let Richmond go to Ole Miss and let's move on. Adios muchacho. Next man up.

 

[butchna]

Why does that matter?

When has that ever mattered...to him?

 

[Rishvol]

Well it doesn't matter because we still need like 7 more to leave or something

You don’t think this is worked out by February? Does that matter?

 

[WriterVol]

What's the contract amount ?

It was reported that contract details were being finalized, but that an agreement had been reached. I take agreement to mean MOU. I doubt Low goes around using the word "agreement" on a handshake. In any case, if a contract is being "finalized" there will be several offices involved and leak containment is nearly impossible.

Sure, you could try to play coy with it, but what would that gain you?

 

[Sleegro]

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

There is no evidence that he's done anything wrong or not done a good job. Some people are just assuming it. Most reports from any legitimate sources indicate Pruitt really likes him.

 

[BruinVol]

You don't think recruits are making decisions right now as opposed to February ?

I am just very curious as to the amount

 

[volfanCLT]

What recruits are we in on currently, at those positions, that are making a decision now?

 

[butchna]

You don't think recruits are making decisions right now as opposed to February ?

And you think those are ironclad? Course you do.

Aren't we seriously involved with a 5 star WR right?

 

[Catbone]

Daddy

 

[BruinVol]

And you think those are ironclad? Course you do.

Surely you aren't arguing that the recruitment of an athlete doesn't take time and time isnt precious?

 

[volinjackson]

Imo with his connection to IMG Academy he would be pretty valuable. IMG is a 5 star factory or am I wrong?
