Recruiting Forum Football Talk XVII

[Aesius]

I see 5-7 next year. All the 5* this year will be big busts. Butch can recruit but he is a horrible coach.

*blue font

That is the actual opinion of almost every rival SEC fanbase.

Tennessee Football Recruiting 2015: National Signing Day Grades and Analysis | Bleacher Report

We got a A and A+ grade

Go Vols

 

[zhangliao04]

8 wins will be okay with me. 9 is the goal. Anything less than 8 is not good.

 

[Catbone]

By the way, I meant to tell you what a cool avi that is. I missed it when u did away with it for a while. :cray:

Thanks smokey. Feel like with a new off season and new football year I needed another avi, so I customized my old one a bit

 

[zhangliao04]

Let them think that. Will make the meltdown of their loss sweeter.

 

[BJWeeks]

If you go by higher ranked on each site. Vols finish with 5 5stars, 14 4stars, and 7 3stars

Must customize it for your new coaching gig as well.

Did you get to follow any of the NSD coverage today? I've been following it all day. Wouldn't have it any other way. :rock:

I hope volnation doesn't panic if we go 3-4 in our first 7 games. I can easily see us winning the remaining 5 games to go 8-4. FYI I think we go 12-0. GBO

Oh, that would cause widespread panic, whining and gnashing of teeth.

Homage to Flat Top

"Back then cruits didn't want us, now we hot they all on us"
"Back then cruits didn't want us, now we hot cruits all on us - I SAID"
"Back then cruits didn't want us, now we hot cruits all on us"
"Back then cruits didn't want us, now we hot cruits all on us - I SAID"


Before Butch came up in the game these fans didn't show no love
They see Butch iin the club and used to treat him like a scrub
They wouldn't holla 'cause his dollars wasn't swell enough
I bet they change they mind when them 80 4's come rolling up
They see that Butch a star, now they wanna sit in his car
Now they wanna count his G's, chill with Thig and and sip with Coach Strip now
They used to love to diss him, now they rush to hug and kiss him now
They telling all they friends when Butch leave how they miss him now
2 8 1, 3 3 0, eight zero zero 4
Hit Butch Jones up on the low 'cause Butch Jones about to blow

[X3]
Before the ice was in Butch grill, before he got his major deal
These cruits wouldn't give a damn if he was ill, shea

...because

[Chorus]

Before my paper came, before Butch got his fame
These cruits that's popping on him now didn't even know his name
They said his flow was lame, they said he had no game
He told 'em all he was fin' to blow they thought he was insane
But then his name started blowing up quick, now they jumping on his Thig
'cause they see Butch on the rise and know now his paper thick
But then his name started blowing up quick, now they jumping on his Thig
Because they see Butch on the rise and know now his paper thick

He's Butch Jones, don't act like you don't know the name
Ain't nothin' changed but his change he gon' stay the same
He's Butch Jones, don't act like you don't know the name
Ain't nothin' changed but his change he gon' stay the same

OK guys I just got home from work and haven't been by a computer all day!! I noticed on Rivals it shows Bruce and Perry haven't signed their LOI. Are they the blue shirts for this class? Can y'all catch me up on this please. Thanks

True! I'll be introduced as OC Friday. Yeah I have been impressed we got everyone without a hitch. I thought we may have one or two waiver last minute. Almost our entire class was done by 11:00

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

09/05 - Bowling Green
09/12 - Oklahoma
9/19 - Western Carolina
9/26 - at Florida
10/03 - Arkansas
10/10 - Georgia
10/17 - Bye week
10/24 - at Alabama
10/31- at Kentucky
11/07 - South Carolina
11/14 - North Texas
11/21 - at Missouri
11/28 - Vanderbilt

When I see this schedule, I easily see 8 wins (though Lord strike me down if I even attempt to call FLA a win between now and Sept. 26). With good coaching 9 wins is attainable, IMO. Lot's of question marks for a lot of teams on this schedule.

I see 11 wins and one tossup

We play vandy with our record of 11-0.
Being a gentleman, CBJ starts the game with walkons and seniors. He does not put in the 1st or 2nd string to give them a break before the SECCG. It is a close fought battle with a final score of UT 24-3 vandy :salute:

Yes I am drunk/high (on UT NSD bliss Lol)

There Apparently are multiple blue shirts. Bruce and Perry. Then some covert, don't tell anyone, keep it on the down low blue shirts. Shhhhh. I probably should not even be telling you this.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Really? We brought in a consensus top 5 class with no fewer than 4 guys who can take a handoff.

You forgot to count McKenzie

 

[Nashvegas31]

I assume it's kept quiet so other teams aren't hounding those kids. Bruce and Perry wouldn't have said anything if TN could have announced them but they need to be admitted first.

i posted the highlights today as they rolled in on this thread if you want to catch up that'll do it

We could be up 100-0 with 1 minute to go against Florida, and I would still not predict a win.

 

[Volunteer forever]

I'm just trying to avoid go through 100+ pages for info. I'm sure VN blew up today. I'm really happy with this class. Now lets go win!! Thanks again guys

 

[eazyTD]

I laughed at this

Butch: I say D-tackle is like a fist fight in a phone booth, but kids these days don’t even know what a phone booth is.

 

[rocktopper16]

No news on Hendrix is good news.. Right?

 

[SCtiger]

Congratulation Vols! Real happy to see you have a superior signing class. Great day for all Vols.

 

[butchna]

Better hope we get Paulk back. Depth there is horrendous. Good thing we hungmonto that long snapper and pushed a RB out

Good thing you can't let it go.

SIAP. Live now.
