'20 TN DE Jay Hardy (Auburn commit)

[AngryButchJones]

We just got reminded of a few universal truths regarding Vols recruiting.

1. Volnation has no insiders...NONE.
2. Auburn has better bagmen than UT and they're not afraid to use them.
3. A verbal commitment from a high school kid isn't worth a bucket of piss. Until they sign the LOI, don't consider them committed.

Lmao the insiders were right. Hardy committed silently to UT months ago. Was telling commits he was coming as of a day ago.

But sure, push that narrative.

Y’all relax it’s a miss but oh well good luck to the kid let’s worry bout the ones we get not the ones we miss... Tennessee is still heading in the right direction

Good luck to him? Yeah, nah.

I would not wish him any luck in helping Auburn win. They did lie to our coaches.

Auburn is getting ready to lose 2 of the last three. This won't be over until he signs. CGM will be on the hot seat again by the end of the year.

Disappointed in our D-line recruiting. Would like @Atlanta VOL to chime in.

Doesn't appear that winning and losing had anything to do with this decision.

 

[chargervol]

Bull crap.

VQ did not say " Don’t tell me AU didn’t cheat".. You did

Lol, are you serious????
He didn't put that as part of their quote.

 

[90 Vol]

Your first statement is complete BS.

Nope, it's not, but keep believing that if it makes you feel better.

No one in this thread is claiming to be an insider. But even if they were, they can only go by what they are told by the recruits. Read the post from VQ. Hardy and his entire family lied to the staff and other commits. Everyone, including Jeremy Pruitt, thought he was committing to TN today.

 

[BigOrange15]

Happens every year. People think AV controls these recruits. AV got played just like everyone else.

It's pretty clear everyone did.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Do we have a bigger fish on the line that we don’t know about?

Highly doubtful. More than likely we will have to hope that we can find more “diamonds in the rough” type of guys now.

I'll agree with 2 and 3, but if the VQ article is correct, no one even the coaches expected this decision. He even told fellow commits he was a Vol. This is in no way on the insiders.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

I’m convinced @CoachK55 knows the kid and made him commit to Auburn to make AV look bad ...... just fueling the conspiracy theories.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

It's pretty clear everyone did.

Yep. But there will be some who blame AV and say he don’t know jack.

Those people are stupid.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Everyone look out for coach K driving his new Caddie!

Agreed

Coach K= Handler

 

[KPT_VFL]

There are no insiders

Simonton said to look for us to turn our attention to Blayne Toll or Reginald Perry

 

[Big Orange Rock]

Our bagman hit em with Ham from toy story and Aubbies bag man hit em with the brinks truck. End of story .

 

[csprig9]

Let’s win out and keep progressing
Everything will take care of itself
Big miss no doubt
**** it, what are you gonna do
Just keep winning

Chattanooga kids man

 

[scvolfan7]

Sucks but sounds like a kid we don’t need in our locker room

 

[KPT_VFL]

Sucks but sounds like a kid we don’t need in our locker room

We needed him.

 

[benholt06]

This was about a figure that was thrown at the Hardy family. At the last minute

 

[1985Vols]

Didn’t “let him go”. Donnan GOT him.

Exactly, should have done whatever it took to keep him. i.e. Don't let him go
