VFL? Seriously he hates Vols. Pushes kids away at least in the past. Don't buy the de1 propaganda.

As much as I've had a big problem with D1 pushing a personal agenda on here against some coaches, and a HS player that is now a Vol...I do not believe and never have believed that he hates UT. I think he really does love Tennessee, but not as much as he does his own interests.

Or......he's being honest about what he sees with the program. When he sees something positive he praises it, when he sees something negative he criticizes it. What's the problem?

I'll tell you what my problem is, I've never heard him bash any other schools coaches. I sure have heard him praise a bunch of them though. He regularly bashed UTs admittedly questionable staff members...every other school has suck ass coaches on staff too, but never a peep about them...that's pure agenda. If he was more critical of other staffs bad coaches, as often and as vociferously as is if of UT, the school he supposedly supports, then I would agree he is just "keepin it real"...but he is not IMO.

My problem is the bashing of recruits. Coaches are grown men paid to do a job. They can handle criticism, warranted or not. Most of the recruits aren't even adults yet. And his criticism seems to target guys that leave his program for one reason or another. It's not professional and definitely not helpful to the team he "supports."

Nobody messed up relationships with us I'm speaking of relationships all over with coaches etc who didn't like lack of player development, etc on UT end. Ignoring VFLs and recruiting suggestions. Just lots of things a for HC like Hoke, a great personality like Wells, a disciplinarian like Warren, etc can come in and help on and off the field. Guys like Debo were good guys just didnt hv any luster in recruiting. Martinez was over rated on all levels coaching and recruiting. Mahoney was just gross andnever should've been at UT. S/C program was awful and saying awful is doing no justic. So fresh new energy will help at least get attention and renewed chance as some wouldn't give with the guys from last yr.

No real professional comes on here and says stuff like this about others that can't defend. PERIOD!!

You were negative recruiting players to other schools or away from Tenn because you didn't like a coach, wasn't getting the attention, or no $$$ handshakes. Why come on here in recruits threads (knowing they read them) and posts negative things.

Every person here can believe you and kiss your butt all they want but I see nothing more then an immature person with an agenda wanting everyone to believe he's something great.

How can I tell? It's in how you word all your posts and how you try to turn people to your view with garbage you shouldn't talk about.

Blah blah blah golf never said a thing negative about a kid. If you call giving my opinion of a kid being over rated and not making plays negative then so be it. Others on here saw the same thing. So save the whining Golf. You don't know me or my financial situation, thus i don't need a handshake, attention, or none of that to function with any coaching staff. I post my opinion and what coaches say who I speak with from not only UT but other places when asked. If a kid is highly rated but not that caliber i have free range to say it and whether he's from TN or California has no bearing on my opinion based on my evaluation. I said I didn't care for Nijaee Harris nobody cries but Gray because he's a commit there's a problem. Miss me with the sensitivity.

KB objectivity is not reasonable at all it has to be all sunshine or you're a bad guy. In this world political correctness has ruined being real. Save your time because many want life to be like a fairytale and not reality.

Dude really hasn't said anything that others haven't also said about recruits or coaches. How many other fans/posters on here expressed their thoughts that Mahoney or Martinez were anything other than a liability? I think people on here get torn up that he may be in position to express these concerns directly to recruits thereby influencing their choices to an extent. But guess what, anyone can come on here and read a hundred others expressing the same concerns. Why then should he be considered less of a fan that any number of others on here?

How many other fans/posters complain on here when we get a commitment from another 3*? How many other fans/posters have had the opportunity to see how many other recruits perform in the field only to suggest that they might be overrated? I'm not sure of the count myself, but I can tell you that de1 is far from the only one.

Keep bringing the info man. There are some on here that just cannot stand the thoughts that somebody out there might be privy to some info that they're not.
