Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[MoCo_Vol]

The good news is CJH don't give a Fuuuuuuuuuuu about this drama. He's here to coach up his ball team, and nothing else. He'll put the appropriate people in place to handle PR and focus on the team.

A few VFLs can't seem to wrap their mind around the fact their time has passed, it's no longer "your" program. Times are different what you did and how you did it ain't the answer anymore.

Brent Dougherty said yesterday “I’ve been told Jeremy Pruitt was calling offensive plays because he’s such a control freak”

If true...sheesh. It's no wonder we couldn't ever score a stinkin' touchdown!!

 

[drvenner]

Oh no

That is his position coach and Tee is the reason he came here from USC.

 

[volatil]

The constant need for us to hire family only is ridiculous. Look where we are

I agree, but my takeaway from your last post is in bold. It all starts with our leadership and flows down. If I don't lead, hire and manage my people correctly in my role I would see these same type of colossal failures. I'm hopeful but not convinced we have that problem taken care of.

Yeah i don't think its solved. maybe boyd/plowman/white will be better leadership.

one of the most interesting things in the last week was white saying we have to fix the leak problem. somebody somewhere leaked the JH hire, and it probably wasn't a bad thing - gave people time to get used to the idea before it hit. but, i like that he was clear that it needs to be fixed. tells me he's not interesting in being a booster pawn or scratching people's backs to help them feel important. maybe some backbone will help right the ship.

Steele was brought here with different expectations and blindsided. If he and CJH see his role differently, it's best for him to move on. With all that's happened, it would be a positive to start fresh.

If you don't like the contract, blame the one who approved it. Unlike Fulmer, she knew what was getting ready to happen. Her name is Donde Plowman and her signature is right there with his.

What is your honest opinion of Plowman?

All these years Tee been coaching and no schools come after him for HC but one I think and he turned them down and didn't he just try to get the HC job at Southern Bama or something like that. lol This is not a personal attack but a performance question.

 

[Batman1948]

They got together, bought all those shares driving the price up, thus manipulating the stock in thier favor. The hedge funds cry foul, but they were trying to manipulate it the other way for thier benefit.

No one evah, evah evah saw a group of private citizens a) identifying what they hedge fund did and moreover b) pulling together, pooling recourses and driving the train the other direction.

The more I read/listen about it, the more amazing it gets.. They bankrupted a walk Street firm because a message board group decided to buy some stock...

I predict that loop holes will be closed after this

 

[SoilVol]

He never turned down an HC job

Thanks for the correction. I thought he had been offered the job at USA.

 

[volatil]

If true...sheesh. It's no wonder we couldn't ever score a stinkin' touchdown!!

I think they have a podcast of their show. It was around 4:40 pm Central when he said it if anyone wants to listen.

 

[Orange Studs]

What is your honest opinion of Plowman?

Oh I can tell you that from reading his post. LOL

 

[Volsdeep4]

redditors think its cute until the feds show up and start sending people to jail for market manipulation

Brent Dougherty said yesterday “I’ve been told Jeremy Pruitt was calling offensive plays because he’s such a control freak”

It all makes sense now. Pruitt had our offense acting like a defense preventing ourselves from scoring. And our defense acting like an offense and allowing the other teams to score, a lot.

 

[Ron Swanson]

How would bgs know that?

He traded his VN account access for insider connections.

 

[Vols4us]

Man Tee needs to man up and stop causing drama. And this is from someone who has met the damn man.

He sees everybody else associated with the program catching thousand dollar bills falling from the sky and he wants some of it before jetting off to a G5.

Tee has soured again on UT.

 

[Orange Studs]

Watch this kids film

And I believe OU and UTjr has offered him.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Listening to Ainge this morning. He and Brian said that Steele had a job here if he wanted it. I have an idea it's not at DC. If he chooses not to accept it, no buyout.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Tee's resume isn't great and I think either Kingston or Hank pointed out awhile back that most people viewed his "OC" title at USC as just for looks since both the Helton brothers were really calling the offense.

What he needs to do is work. Rumors a plenty he wasn't working very hard while here, and even with the conflict between him and Pruitt at the end of the day his work ethic is what matters regardless of how bad his boss is. Cause if he was producing NFL talent or developing his guys and recruiting hard then he wouldn't need a BS buyout he thought he had negotiated with the previous AD that got fired with the rest of the former staff.

 

[Vols4us]

We are going to regret hiring Fulmer as AD for a long time.

This. In so many ways.

 

[VFLPastor]

I love VN sometimes. Find out someone needs help. An hour later Volunteers give their all and more!

 

[LA Vol]

The constant need for us to hire family only is ridiculous. Look where we are

Dooley, Butch and Pruitt weren't family. Nieds and Felton weren't family. Bad hires and continually making bad situations worse put us where we are.

I predict that loop holes will be closed after this

What's the loophole? This is very strange, but how is this different from some analyst or hedge fund person going on CNBC telling the world what they are buying or selling? Or look at guys like Cramer cheering stocks up or down

 

[InVOLuntary]

I wonder if the NCAA will hammer us for the GoFundMe?

 

[Ashevolle]

I'm certainly no expert, but from what I've read about it, they have one of the most respected leadership teams in the industry. They have plenty of capital. And their technology appears to solve most of the issues that plague other blockchains by being scalable without sacrificing security and decentralization. So I think it will lead more people to build on their blockchain. There's already a couple countries building their currency on it. So as it gets used more it will drive up the value. Also, Coinbase let's you stake it for 6% APY which is nice. But like I said, I'm no expert. I only threw in an amount that wouldn't hurt me if I lost it all. Which is very possible. haha

I'll do some reading on it. Thanks for the info.

Probably.
