'20 TN DE Jay Hardy (Auburn commit)

IF this is true, then the staff dropped the ball. Still doesn't explain the lying IMO. Why not be upfront and honest with the staff rather than playing them like that? Still not convinced money didn't change hands.
This. That doesnt gel with VQ at all and they dont say stuff like that.
 
Y'all are speaking from a fans standpoint which I understand how you feel. I don't like when the team I root for don't get certain players also. Auburn legit has one of the best dlines in the country
So? And your point is? You think that lasts forever? Not to mention, what have they won with that best d-line in the country? I guarantee Bama will have more success against that ‘best dline’ in the country than they did against Tennessee’s dline that lost every player on that dline from last years team. And one of the worst QBs I have seen in Jarrett Garantano lit up that Auburn defense last year. The fact that a 17 year old kid and his short sided handler doesn’t see that is their problem. Tennessee is on the rise with or without this kid.
 
Had a chat with Coach K earlier. From someone who was on those visits, it really sounds like we dropped the ball. All those visits to UT were apparently of Jay's own volition, not because he was being asked and invited all the time. AUB was constantly begging him to come. They also put a major emphasis on academics (Jay wants to be an engineer), we didn't. AUB was just more consistent it sounds like. Rocker is a good coach, but man, he seems to disappear on the trail. Doesn't sound like its over though, so stop trashing the kid for ****s sake.

Beyond that, we have to focus on winning THIS year, and recruiting will work itself out in the long term. Winning fixes everything. Worry about the ones we get, etc etc etc.
man..............

there's a handful of posters on this site that i really pay attention to when there's legit information being passsed along...you're one of them.

i assume that also means you put some credance in to coach k's legitamcy.....so reading this posted by you..........sucks.

but thanks for putting it out there, it at least provides some clarity that is missing for most of us. @Big Gucci Sosa you too....seems you two are signing out of the same hymnal.

You people trying to say the coaches dropped the bal are intentionally ignoring one important fact--he and the family said he was going to be a Vol. something changed that--we don't know what it was, but it wasn't the fact that the coaches dropped the ball.
 
Thanks for some truth. Its hard for these guys to swallow most of the time. As soon as you post something not according to script they blast you and call you a troll.
I thought you didn't trust anything from message boards? Turns out you only believe what suits your opinion on message boards.
 
I think some of you need to come down off your high horses and face the facts. The facts are staring you in the face. Someone has to face the music.

Then why not say that publicly on the forum? I'm not buying it.

We just graduated a rocket scientist for crying out loud.

Completely agree with this. People need to back away from the computer if this sends you through the roof.

It's a ****ing marathon, not a sprint. If there was ever a kid that would be a candidate for a late flip IT'S THIS ****ING KID. He's not signing until Feb. Let's win out, let's watch AUB drop two in a row, and then let it all sort itself out by Feb. But let's try to stop burning the bridge in the meantime. Take deep breaths, people.

Just as you refuse to face the fact he was reaffirming his commitment as late as yesterday? Please pull your head out of your ass and realize that even if the staff dropped the ball, Hardy was being untruthful as well. Reality is probably somewhere in the middle.

I hate the fact we missed on this kid as bad as any of us do. Still have to respect the kids decision and not call kids names or bad things. These things only cause a kid to know he did the right thing. Others don't look at these things as a good thing either.

This isnt about a kid picking another place. The only fact is that you are completely oblivious to that.
