Eric MacLain Decommits

I cannot remember the last time I have seen this much whinning over a player that touches the football 3 times a game. This is hilarious.

Thank you! The Armchair Recruiting experts are getting old - love the passion though.

To me, it's not this particular player that is concerning, but listening to MacLean's coach it was kinda shocking how MacLean was recruiting UT so hard and was seemingly not getting any attention in return. The coach had to call us on a player who had been as rock solid as Eric and we give him a lukewarm response. Granted, they did invite him to junior day, but something doesn't sit well with me about this thing. I think if they didn't want him they should have told his coach. Instead, Coach Baggett gives him a lukewarm answer they are "evaluating" him. I hope this isn't a pattern with guys who want to be Vols that have talent. I'm willing to sit tight and wait, but some things about the junior recruits kinda bothers me for one reason or another.

On TOS his dad is on their and said that was a big reason in why. Said he teared up when he read about the Washinton TE getting offered when he still hadn't heard from DD. GBO

Again why the heck would the kid care who we had offered at TE? The kid projects to be an OT and shouldn't be worried. If he is that worried, he should call the staff and ask what is going on with his offer OR at the very least come to junior day and see where he stands with the new staff. I admire that the kid has stuck with the Vols through all of the coaching changes but he is being kind of childish here from what I can tell.

FIVE MINUTES! Heck, call him while you're on the can for a few minutes.

They mishandled no matter how you spin it...

Either he's not good enough and they just wanted him to move on but didnt want to look like the bad guy for revoking his scholly offer, OR they forgot about him all together, which one is worse????

Maybe Dooley didn't want him? Maybe? I'm a die hard Vol too and would love to play for UT, but Dooley hasn't called me one time.

Ok, CALL HIM AND TELL HIM THAT!

But, somehow all these other schools want him, including Saban, Dooley's supposed "Oh wise one" yet Dooly doesnt want him?

I don't by it, major fudge up.

I think threads like this are the by-product of having a coach who doesn't run his mouth and break rules...

There's nothing football related to talk about right now and unless our coach says/does something stupid/immature there won't be until March/April so certain people who need constant headlines to feel secure are going nuts...and starting threads about topics that already have 2-3 threads available for discussion

I can't remember a time when I was more ashamed of a portion of our fanbase. UGA, South Carolina, and Bammer may have more idiots but I think we have the market cornered on fairweather, pansy fans that whine and complain about any and everything associated with our program. Take your fairweather, not so fresh feeling down the road and support another team. STOP MENSTRUATING ON THE BOARD! :eek:lol:

even if that means screwing over all vol commits, ok, i'm with that, makes sense.....

Where does this, "let the coaches do their thing" end? How about they all go on vacation for a month or two... why not, we need to let them do their thing regardless of how it affects the perception of our football program. greeeeat idea.

For some reason I think that the coaches are more qualified to evaluate talent and our need than some random "fan". Settle down and see how it plays out, there is a reason that they get paid for what they do and you dont. jmo

+1000 good lord people Dooley just closed our 2010 class as best as anyone else could and you are on him for this???? Let him evaluate the players and run the program...recruiting is not paramount right now, why don't you count the # of days until signing day instead of posting drivel like the OP
