I’ve seen several comments on here saying Alabama is the place he will land. He doesn’t seem to fit the Alabama type running back. Alabama usually are backs. I don’t consider him a big back. It’s like Kamara at Alabama, it’s not that he wasn’t good he just wasn’t an Alabama type running back.

Kamara was behind some all pros. I’m sure they can find a way to use Gibbs. Also will not be pumped if he goes there

No, you're just reading things into the statement that aren't there, and being a bit of a prick in the process.

He's not necessarily sour on the program, maybe he got treated like crap when he came here for the visits, and now he doesn't want to come back. If I have a couple bad experiences at a restaurant (he visited more than once if memory serves), and then I hear that the ownership has changed...I'm still not going back. That place sucks, and I don't want to go there.

That's easy to understand. It's not surprising at all that he could think that UT sucks after people at UT - whether they are still there or not - treated him poorly and made him feel not wanted.

Just calling balls and strikes. Sorry, if the truth stings. Kid is a pin head. And you are accusing me of reading into things when it's pretty obvious he is clueless and can't differentiate between 2 totally different coaching staffs with 2 different styles. Then you double down and mention some potential poor treatment while he was on campus. Are you telling me that's not reading into things? You have absolutely no clue how he was treated when he visited. And from all accounts he was interested until Pruitt wanted to make him a DB. That's not what I call 'poor treatment'. That's just Pruitt being a bonehead and killing off the recruitment. And you're analogy of a restaurant and a college campus is just silly. Makes me wonder if you are the type that expects 5 star service and leaves a 1 star tip. Because if you generally have a bad experience at a restaurant a person generally doesn't go back unless they are a masochist and enjoy being treated poorly. Keep carrying water for him though, that's the mentality as to why we are in the shape we are in these days.

See, it seems that being a prick is just your general disposition. So, I will kindly refrain from interacting with you, because you are clearly unable to be a mature adult.

Also, I'm not "carrying water" for the kid, but maybe that's what it seems to you when people are grown up enough not to feel the need to call a college kid a "pin head" for doing something that they don't like.

Just calling balls and strikes. Sorry if the truth stings. (Notice I didn't include the unnecessary and grammatically incorrect comma in that second sentence).

Babbling about being a mature adult and then coming in fast with the grammar smack. You're a walking contradiction. Some people refer to that as a hypocrite. I tend to not want to interact with hypocrites. So I guess it works itself out. I only come off as a prick to you because you are fragile just like Gibbs. You're too dense to see why I would call him a pinhead and refer to it as 'something I don't like'. I don't care where he ends up. Has nothing to do with me not liking something. Just think his reasoning is silly as are the people that back his silliness.

You're right, that was petty on my part. Sorry, you just seem like a real douche.

Anyway, enjoy being a hardass.

Gibbs must not be able to notice a different offense when he sees one. If he has watched our offense this year he would know he could flourish in it. No need to waste time explaining it to him. Plenty more backs that will have success in our system out there. GBO!

If accurately using the analogy, you can't operate with the understanding that it is the same girl. The person is different (Pruitt vs Heupel), while still being a female (Tennessee).

Admittedly, the comparison is a bit ambiguous as to how you assign the roles.

So you're saying Pruitt is transgender?

Kamara is also an all pro and has had a better pro career than any of the backs he was behind at Alabama. He actually averages more total yards per year than Derrick Henry in the NFL. That having been said, my point still stands that Gibbs is not the normal style back Alabama uses.

I doubt he would go back and date her agin if he had been treated badly on the first and second dates when some other hot girls are begging at the door.

I’d date miss piggy for a million $$ and so would Gibbs, no matter how bad she treated me on the first date

That’s not a good analogy. He didn’t like the management and the management has changed. He didn’t say he doesn’t like the team, facilities, colors, area, etc.

Maybe you should check the reason he doesn't want to come here. According to Austin Price, Gibbs feels like due to the previous coaching staff that the current coaching staff won't use him properly. So I stand by my original pea brain comment.

Reading is hard, I understand that. But according to AP, he soured on Tennessee because of the former staff. He doesn’t think Heupel will play him at DB you potato.
