Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[VolGee4]

Waited till after NSD. Pruitt wanted somebody else on-field, and Fair didn't want to be shifted to a Lilly type role. Hate letting former players go, but it happens.

It seems like that would be a tough spot to fill, knowing that your head coach specializes with that position. You either pay a young up and comer or pay more for a veteran guy (with maybe another title) who is comfortable with his own abilities.

He was brought in for his IMG connection....what prize recruit has he been on and landed? where was he on the list for recruiting on the staff?

Eric Gray.


Next.

 

[csprig9]

Derek Ansley available???

 

[Mullins2010]

Yup...Fair's recruiting wasn't getting it done

 

[LightningVol]

Derek Ansley available???

Still with the Raiders. Was rumored to be up for Geogia Defensive coach position 4 weeks ago.

 

[volfaninpa]

So, anybody got any idea of what real possibilities are in the works?

I wonder if it will be a DB/Special Teams combo coach?

 

[TheMagnificantOne]

Eric Gray.


Next.

No he wasn't. He hasnt been at IMG in years. None of the kids there would have known him from when he was there.

He was brought in because CJP is high on him and still is by most accounts.

And according to what AV has said, he is the main reason Justin Rogers is very high on UT if not a lean.

Of course, but useless Weinke is still there

I know that's a popular opinion from us informed folks on message boards who like to act like they know what they're talking about but Fulmer and Pruitt seem to like Weinke and think he's a darn good coach.

 

[you]

Normally I would say yes, but with the instate class looking great and our standing with guys like Mayes, I think we will pull another strong class this year, JMO. 5 guys alone from the state of TN in the ESPN300 right now.

Brynn Tucker
OTKnoxville, TN

Marcus Henderson
OTMemphis, TN

Omari Thomas
OTEads, TN

Chris Morris
OGMemphis, TN

Ray Curry
OTMemphis, TN

All of them please

Ye shall know them by their fruits.

Love the gif, just not sure the point you’re making.

 

[BruinVol]

Damn who hit him with a helmet ?

Was pretty well noted when we brought him on board how he helped with a lot of game planning at Alabama when there as just an off field guy.

He will be more comfortable coaching QB's next year too.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Ummmm, "hymens"?!? Are you speaking of Hyams or something else entirely?

'is this thing on?'

 

[Mullins2010]

Derek Ansley available???

Him and Pruitt were together at Bama...would be a great hire
