Nah, Hubbs is constantly hedging his bets. Never goes out on a limb. It's because he doesn't know anything. Being wrong all the time would be bad for business.

To say Hubbs "doesn't know anything" is wildly inaccurate. Does he know less than he has at some points and with some coaching staffs? Good chance of that. But Hubbs is in the know as much as anyone in the business.

You're correct that he's not going to go out on a limb, but he also has a high respect for these kids and lets them have their moment. If Hubbs says "We like where UT is positioned with ____" that's a very good sign. But he's not going to break the news to overshadow the kid's moment.

And Hubbs is also as conservative as they come. He knows how fans will take it if he hints at optimism with a prospect. We take nuggets and turn them into guarantees and Hubbs is smart enough not to get into that. It's why he's more respected and has a longer tenure than most guys in the business at other SEC schools who are homers and spew what the fans want to hear.

Yeah that’s just how Hubbs rolls. He always has.

But saying he doesn’t know anything is asinine.

I agree with this. I'd rather hubbs play it safe then say for sure that someone is coming here and then not end up here, you know like A LOT of people here who think they're "insiders".

I've trusted Hubb's opinion for years and while he's not always right, he's usually on point.

Gah, when will this Hubbs bashing end?! Y’all just really must get some sick sense of joy by bashing the dude. Give him time to establish the connections and trust with the new staff and he will be giving you your money’s worth, which is actually nothing cause everyone who complains isn’t paying a dime anyway.

Not saying bashing anyone is right, but I'd rather see people bashing Hubbs than coaches and players. JMO

If we get Copeland and miss on our top CB don’t be surprised to see Taylor move back to CB. Remember Bama offered as a DB and watching his play his looks like a natural at DB.

Not gonna happen. Alontae is a wide out all the way.
