Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXXII

[drvenner]

It pains me to agree with a Cubs fan, lol but I agree with you..

It pains me just as much to agree with a Cardinals fan

I hate that you all signed Dexter Fowler. Love that dude.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Jfc

 

[drvenner]

As soon as I started researching and liking the guy. I quit.

This one's on you, dude. Own it.

 

[drvenner]

😂

Now that's more like it.

All this positive news was making me sick anyway

It would not be a true Monday without a swift one in the jimmies.

 

[drvenner]

Blackburn. Hamilton. Cheek. Hart. You all suck and are the reason we have struggled in basketball and football for a decade. Thanks for nothing.

🖕

3 out of 4 ain't bad. Especially for you. Why did you put Blackburn in that list?

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Maybe, but I think it may be more of:

Davenport: "I'm the chancellor here and I am going to be heavily involved in this hire. I want to give my all to Tennessee."

DePetrio: "Uh, ok."

Davenport: "Thank you, now how about this guy?"

Depetrio: "Nah."

Davenport: "How about this guy? He seems nice""

Depetrio: "Nah."

Davenport: "OK the, this guy was my BFF at Cincinnati, I think he'd be real good."

Depetrio: "Nah. I am giving you 100% authority to make this hire as long as it's Fulmer or Blackburn. "

If that is what is happening, then I am good with it. Although I wish he would tell her that she has 100% authority to make the hire as long as it is Blackburn and no one else.

Why are you including Blackburn in that list ?

Assistant AD during that mess?

 

[Catbone]

Oops I meant davenport not Blackburn.

Basilio blog said that Blackburn wanted us to hire Whittingham, but the rest of the guys wanted Dooley... that's enough for me. Hire Blackburn

I do know that Blackburn has a lot of connections out west for some odd reason. He's buddies with Peterson at Washington.

I don't know that that is happening but I was told early on that she would basically "sign off" on a hire.

I have my own theory as to what's going on.

My theory involves crayons, nap time and a little poo every now and then

Yours theory is probably closer to the truth than mine.

 

[Rishvol]

Better keep those crayons away from BB

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Where would we be right now had the administration listened to Blackburn and hired Whittingham instead of Dooley?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Has anybody seen the Haribo commercial with all the business types sitting around the table talking in kids voices? That's how I imagine a UTBOT meeting.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Here it is if you haven't seen it

[VolArtillery]

Yeah, unfortunately that's probably how it looks.

 

[Specs]

Davenport probably senses a power vacuum and is making a move to have her own voice heard. In any other scenario she gets handed a script and does whatever the bot decide.

We have a very obvious leadership issues all the way to the top.

 

[butchna]

Obviously, waves better. Instead of rebuilding these last four years we'd be maintaining standards.

 

[Glitch]

Freak should start a forum of nothing but poster threads....

for example:

The bignewt thread

The BaldBiker thread

The butchna thread

The de1conley thread

TonyB wouldn't need one. he already has about 1000 of them.

I guess I'm not worthy to have my own thread. Ya big jerk.

Rish. Get the man another drink.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

How is Whittingham as a recruiter?

 

[Chief Vol 13]

She has absolutely no business making this hire. If they're just making it appear as if she actually is involved with the hire that's fine and understandable. Something tells me though that she really is the one calling the shot and that will probably end up being some clown like Bohn that she has a previous relationship with.
