We will be fine here. The state of Georgia has several highly rated OLineman for next yrs class and not all of them will wanna go play for the pups.

Getting back in this tiresome monotonous circle just to say that for me to agree, I’d have to believe Pruitt values his friends over his coaching legacy...and I don’t. Resume place on pulpit.

He hired his buddy. Lots of coaches do it. I’m sure he’ll drag him along as long as he can / allowed to.

I can't say why TR wasn't interested, maybe there was a personality clash.
But I'm fairly certain that it wasn't because he didn't like the coaching of someone he's never been coached by. Yes, I'm willing to go out on that limb.

Also figured with the relationship TR has with the Ga staff already, he just needed some time with Luke. Not shocking.

Tate has never been coached by Matt Luke either.

Only difference is Matt Luke has a reputation as a great OL coach that players love to play for. Kinda wish we had an OL Coach with a rep like that...

I've never heard of this negative Friend stuff until he didn't turn around one of the worst lines in the country, in 1 season.
Everything else had been positive until he got VN'd. Everything I heard/read anyway.

Or it could just be that we sucked two years ago due to zero talent, made demonstrable progress with the addition of the two freshmen, the return of Trey and a year of competent S/C ANNNNDDDD.....you have zero idea what you’re talking about. God I almost blacked out typing that.

When’s the last time you heard Will Friend talked about the way people talk about Sam Pittman & Matt Luke?

Some of you guys on here are so FOS. If Kirby can get a WR with 3rd grade reading skills admitted to UGA, he can also find scholarship money for players’ girlfriends and best friends.

Lies, lies, and more lies. The kids at Ole Miss loved him, but he wasn't pulling in 5 star recruits outside of them outright cheating.

Except an unnatural amount about Pittman on VN, which ironically, I didn't hear about when he was our ol coach. 🤷‍♂️, I don't hear much OL coach talk at all except "he's done a nice job".
Know Chaney worked with the OL some at Ga also.

But what specifically are you basing Friend being **** on, the real basis.

So Pruitt doesn’t care about his coaching legacy. Butch 2.0. Can’t take you seriously.

Of course he does. Doesn’t mean he’s any different from scores of other coaches.

I get it. You ALWAYS love all the Coaches and think they’re great.... until you don’t 😉

Lol, you’re usually pretty level headed. Are YOU gonna argue that Matt Luke isn’t known as a good coach and recruiter?

I don’t know man. Why don’t you give us some examples instead of driveling like a star struck teenager? Who was he the primary recruiter for at UT/ Duke that’s got you so impressed. And don’t you dare try to count anyone at Ole Miss. it doesn’t count if you end up on probation.
