Jay Graham to FSU (merged)

I spoke very briefly with him at the Nashville tour event after signing day. He seemed to be just going through the motions. I tried to put it down to exhaustion but the rest of the staff seemed energized. Was that a sign? Probably not but it was the first thought that came to mind on hearing this news.

I noticed that too.
 
it's one of three things that occured here graham wanted more cash, his wife told him no if he doesn't come to fsu as they spent alot of time at disney, or jones pissed graham off and told him to get out, so he could finish his best staff in america. i think jones is a joke, he best produce a winning season this coming fall. he's ran his mouth way to much and this right here might really do him in if he doesn't win.
 
Per Twitter:

@RusselWNOX: Jones offered Graham raise/better title, but Graham wanted the chance to work with R. Sanders, who he considers a mentor.

Randy Sanders? Good lord! He was a joke around here!

I have to agree. And...people are saying stuff like "CJG left because CBJ could not get him enough money". Ummm...or maybe he was not willing to give the raise. Not much that was raise worthy, imo. This might have been a win/win situation.

Trust me, I met Graham and he is not a keeper. he has a very hard time communicating with anything alive or dead.:crazy:

Did leave on his own? -- FSU offered him a deal he couldn't refuse?

Or

Did he feel forced out? --- The new staff completely used him and it bothered him that they are all "cincy" buddies?

Or

????

No way, this was out of the blue. This had to be in JG's mind for awhile.



Staff is not all from Cinnc ( Tenn,Wisc,Auburn) Graham wanted to be RC and got that offer from FLST,got it!!! Azzani(sp) is the RC Jones chose,so goodbye and Good Luck to JG. Nobody made him feel forced out!!!!! GO VOLS!
 
more like jay wanted to be recruiter as he had a right to be as he was all tn, this azzani piece of crap couldn't recruit a die hard tennessee fan.

Nobody really gives a damn if you think Jones is a joke or not.He best produce a winning record this season or what? What will you do about it if he doesnt? Ran his mouth too much, you really are a simple little fool aren't you?

i am sick of losing seasons here, i will still cheer for the vols, but will not support the coaches at all if they can't come up with a winning season especially since they are the greatest staff in america. graham wanted to be the recruiter but jones said nope here's you alittle more money and some fancy title. fsu told graham he could recruit so there he went.
 
He bailed on us a few weeks before spring ball starts. Scream VFL all you want but that doesn't sound like VFL at all to me.
 
Could be jg was told by hart a home run hire was happening so he stayed around.... Then bj boy was hired n jg said not home run but will give it a shot.. Then he works with him 31 days n some doubt creeps in about the staff vs his exposure to sec staffs....then a phone call comes in and its randy n we know what happens next...

Maybe its no ones fault just a gut feeling jg had and he had a way out...

In second thought hart is to blame for not hiring the best for tn......

I'm not mad at Jay for leaving, but lets not act like he was a home run hire here. We struck out on every single RB recruit. J. Lee landed in our laps bc of injuries.
