AP on swain talking about JH this morning....basically, broke it down like this.....JH has been to TN 15 times, and Auburn 3. if there's relationship issues, at some point, isn't this a two way street? said JH isn't a big phone person, so if he doesn't talk to the coaches when they call, is that necessarily a TN issue?
he said if it was him, at least 1 day a week for the remainder of the open period, every defensive coach as a group would make the trip down to see Hardy. there's only 2-3 guys we're really targeting with DB and JH being the top two. and Hardy #1. and there would be no doubt that he was a priority....
said we'll know if there's really traction here by the 25th. how many visits down do we make, pruitt's in home and whether or not JH makes it back up....says he wants better relationships with current players and more staff members, well, to do that, he's likely gonna have to come back up.....maybe more than once, or stay for a whole weekend, not just up and back for a game.
anyway....he said either this is a heckuva troll job by Hardy or he's really looking for a reason to come to TN.....i think AP believes he wants to come to TN, just needs reasons to pull the trigger. our job is to make sure we give him reason at this point. otherwise, he would have signed w/Auburn already.
