But for some reason I am pretty sure I've heard (something to the tune of)
"He told me to be sure, and to look around before committing"
Come out of the majority of players mouths when referring to Dooley and their recruitment.
:unsure:
Just playing devil's advocate here :mf_surrender:, but I wonder how many posters on this thread have said in the past "we only want guys who bleed orange and are all-in"? IF (if, if, if, if, if!!) it's true that CDD is putting pressure on these guys to put up or shut up before they have a chance to really explore all their college options, there is of course no violation of NCAA rules, but I wonder if it's the best recruiting strategy in the long run? I see the potential (potential, just potential) for at least a couple of these guys to hurry up and commit, not work out for whatever reason (injury, lack of talent, attitude, grades, etc) and then get stuck in CDD's iron curtain transfer policy on the back-end and ultimately bad mouthing the program. That's obviously not something we want. We want guys that are all-in, that want nothing more in life than to wear the Power T and contribute and in my mind, that means letting them go have a look around at other schools. If they want to be here, great! Welcome aboard. If they have ANY questions about being here, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE so we don't have to deal with the drama. Playing at UT shouldn't have to be a hard sell.

Its awesome how the Nashville radio personalities hang on Franklins nards.For those of you in the Nashville area:
I have to snicker every time I hear the Vanderbilt Season ticket commercial. James Franklin goes on about "everything we do here at Vandy is going to be about *ahem* championships"
and by snicker I mean laugh hysterically.
