Bingo.

The big donors is all that truly matters. The staff just has to do better and it’s ok to say that.

NIL is was it is......and everyone must adapt.

But, I personally don't want a team full of guys that are only looking for the most money. NFL is full of big FAs that don't do squat once they get their money.
Not all are that way, but there is a bunch of money grabbing transfers that are huge misses.

Can't wait for the day when these athletes get their NIL deals taken away due to lack of performance. Welcome to the real world.

individuals matter
big donors matter
staff needs to do a better job closing

First step in selling, yes, recruiting is selling, is to find out what is most important to the customer. If close to Texas was the deciding factor, you actually never had a decent shot and may have wasted your time & money.

We shoulda played him a video of the yell leaders...we obviously didn't.

People should be way more alarmed that going into Year 4 with this staff, Elarbee has yet to recruit and develop a single high school player into a contributor on our OL than missing on a couple transfers.

Whatever the issue may be, having Dayne Davis as a possible starter next season is just flat out inexcusable.

More people need join the Vol club....just what it is

Don’t put this on Vol club. I’m tired of this excuse. Coaches need to learn to be more mercenaries in n the trail. It is what it js

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Nico is gonna get killed this year all because our staff can't recruit any OL. The only think Ellarbee has done was gifted an elite 5* tackle.

 

[peaygolf]

I trust CJH............but everyone needs to understand that the Head Recruiter better be the HC.......not Assistants.

The 5 OL in the 2023 cycle and the 7 last year beg to differ.

Who you think closed Nico and soon to be GMac down?

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

You're free to question it but it's not the issue here

What is? Do recruits not like our OL coach?

What you say is absolute truth. This type of thinking will not be tolerated on this forum.

 

[peaygolf]

I didn't intend to say it's all on the HC.........but he's should be/and is the main recruiter.

Cheer up guys, around here we’re suppose to ignore the disappointments and think magically and wishfully.

 

[drvenner]

I am one of the biggest sunshine pumpers, but this one is pretty disappointing and more than a little concerning. I am not clutching pearls. I believe Heupel and the staff planned for this contingency and are moving forward. It would be nice to get another solid tackle out of the portal like we did with Campbell last year. We still have some time, just not sure who else is out there who can help us.

True, A&M may have matched it or increased NIL. Makes sense to just play closer to home if that was the case

 

[Mator]

It "looked really good" yesterday afternoon............IDK? Throw my hands up.

Maybe the NIL pattern is that athlete visits school #1 to set his market value for school #2 and school #2 is the athlete's preferred destination. If true, it's not good that we are visit #1. This might also be why the visit/s are so short. Athlete visits to set market value knowing they are not coming to that school, sticks around for just time needed to get a value then checks out.

And I refer to them as athletes because they are not students, no way to get a quality education hoping through the portal, especially those who have moved several times. It's all about the money.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I’m sick

I dont know how else to put this.

It keeps happening. We know the NIL, well we presume it is based on what yall say. I believe it.

What is also static is that staff just keeps missing on guys it likes.

I dunno man. Hope for the best. Dayne Davis This aint intramurals

Oh no. You keep pumping that shine. Cant jump on the fence now jk

Bussell is next man up. He certainly looks the part

 

[VOLATNES]

I am not talking about this particular recruit. I am talking about portal recruiting overall. It’s possible that with how we have allocated our NIL funds so far, that we could be running low.

Prove it
