'21 AL WDE Dylan Brooks (Auburn transfer)

[MarcoVol]

Why’d we let this kid go? What do we have to lose?

Bc he doesn’t want to play here

Sucks that he's jumped shipped. Will laugh my a** off if he goes somewhere besides WDE. they just know he’s a lock to go there. Anywhere but Auburn and I will be ok.

Even if we wanted to be jackasses about it he still holds the cards. They can still opt out if they want so what’s the point?

Brooks is a good player, but not worth all the trouble this situation would cause. All in all now we can move on. Find players that bleed orange.

I say go to Auburn and beat UGA and Bama every year. We will probably never play against him anyways.

This is the perfect spot for dog farts, bbq, and soccer.

So get released from the school you’ve been committed to (and signed with) for almost a year who just hired the same coaches that recruited you and would’ve coached you at the new school you just chose.

Makes sense.

For such a highly rated pass rusher he sure does have small highlights videos to only fit 2 minutes worth. Senior highlights is meh and like he had too many Pruitt McDonald’s bags

 

[ShreveportVol]

I for one respect the hell out of Dylan Brooks. His intentions were clear. When asked why he committed to UT, he said "Coach Pruitt." When NSD came around and Pruitt was here, he signed, just like he said he would. When we canned Pruitt, he left and chose the school that was option #2 the whole time. No drama, no kiddish games. Hate to lose him, but I think he's a rare 18 year old man and will be one of the few non-Vols I root for on a personal level.

So here's a question....
Why is he now going to Auburn? No coaches are left there that recruited him? I mean hell...his position coach that was at Auburn is now here....?

Also...did anyone else hear that this kid wouldnt take any calls from the CJH and new staff when he was hired? If that's true...then bye.

 

[MarcoVol]

If that's true...then bye.

“You can’t fire me, I quit!”

 

[jkleno]

That is definitely a head scratcher choice.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

With the recent history I wonder what this kid may have been offered to play for Pruitt?

My sources heard 50k to start.

If he really wanted to be closer to home then why didn’t he just commit to Auburn in the first place? Let’s be real. Dude was getting paid and his handlers at UT got the boot.

I mean, didnt he grow up an Auburn fan? Isnt that kind of the hometown school? If that was his #1 reason for considering Aub, and Pruitt was the #1 reason for considering UT... makes sense to me that Auburn would then become #1. Same thought process as people had saying Ty Simpson would pick the hometown school after Sark, his main reason for considering Alabama, was no longer there. Not a dealbreaker for Ty apparently, but if it is for Brooks, the logic is there to me

Also, IF he was lied to about Pruitt staying, signed his life away, then had the rug pulled out from under him.... makes sense he would have a bad taste in his mouth. Wish he wouldve given us another chance, but cant blame him.

 

[JacketVol]

He’s no longer a vol. Hope he’s a bust. Hope all players at opposing schools are bust.

 

[Col_Cathcart]

He came for Pruitt

He came for and that’s why he’s going to auburn now.

Pruitt/money same thing

Correct.

 

[nate from decatur]

Does he get a 1099 ?
