Your entertainment value is unsurpassed. Watching you come in swinging for the fence, talk out both sides of your ass, straddle the fence and now backstroking like Michael Phelps is pure gold. Keep up the good work.We're all Vol fans here. I never blasted anyone. I do have questions about the reasons we are lacking in defensive line recruits and LB recruits. People shouldn't blast the kids that make other decisions regardless of when they made their decisions. I just don't know what happened for sure Weezer.
I believe that most people are missing the most important point here. Auburn has one goal in recruiting and that is to keep up with Bama. It doesn't matter where they get the recruits. They want the best and obviously will get them at all cost. Bama does the same thing. It's crazy for us to believe a recruit from Tennessee should go anywhere but UT. We need to play the same game as the big boys or quit worrying about recruiting. Just my 2 cents worth.I don’t follow recruiting closely but I’m shocked by this one. Our team is trending upward and they’re trending he opposite direction in what year 7 or so under malzohn. He’s been on our campus multiple times and really seen this team grow up and come together. Man sometimes it really is hard to not dislike these kids. Lol. We absolutely sold out to get him. What the hell?
So everything you just said came from "coach k"?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.
You know what makes relationships real fast?so wait, Hardy's visited here 8 times this year, was here for an OV weekend before last, flashing the UT gloves last week, telling err'body he's still in last week, and we haven't been showing him enough love? but after one weekend at Auburn, they made up all that ground? i realize he's been there 1 or two other times in the past couple years.
i guess Rocker really does suck out loud and must have the personality of a rock if Auburn's staff can make up and pass us on the relationship front that quickly.
many we really need to re think our whole strategy............
eyes rolling.................................................
UT will be better off without this kid and his family. These type folks will bring trouble. Let AU have it.I don’t know how/why you are being so obtuse. Literally nobody here is making noise because he went to Auburn. People are frustrated, questioning the Hardy’s because of the way in which it was done. Multiple lies to staff, recruits, etc. even up until his announcement. I would absolutely never let my son act like that.
I don’t think many of us truly care who you are. If Hardy comes to UT, great. If not, that sucks but the program will move on. Quit trying to dramatize the situation by saying stupid **** like “it’s not over!!” and talking about a message board swaying JHs mind.
