Our coaches hit the road today evaluating prospects....

[hatvol96]

There's enough leftover athletes in-state and academic casualties to field a decent team at La Tech.

That's silly. The only kind of coach who can win there is a Hall of Famer like Gary Crowton.

Didn't Blake bring a lot of good players to OU, facilitating Stoops BCS Championship? I can handle that.

 

[Lord Vader]

the only thing that really gets me about this whole argument is people (mainly eric, and Sab but to a lesser extent) being so butthurt that Kiffin left that you completely change your opinion on how good of a coach he is.

 

[Lord Vader]

There are like, 7 different arguments going on here.

and you have literally lost every single one of them.

 

[g8terh8ter_eric]

Eli Manning and Trent Green had a little trouble there, too. Joe Montana also had trouble throwing for more Super Bowl yards even with an extra game to do it.

Eli has a Super Bowl, and Trent isn't that bad. Leinhart has yet to play in 3 years. Vince Young has a winning record as a NFL starting QB. Vince is still laughing at USC, IMO. How many players from that prolific USC offense play in the pros and contribute on a regular basic outside of Reggie Bush?? I can't think of any, anyone care to help??

 

[VOLNBAMA]

So Kiffin's O at USC was successful despite Leinhart not being a better QB than the local bag boy at Kroger.

Point: Kiffin

That USC offense had 16 future NFL players on it


Point: Me

Dooley being UT's Ron Zook? That could be ok if Tennessee is willing to a good coach to come here.

+1,000,000,000,000,000, :good!:

Saban lost to ULM. 'Nuff aid.

And some of those same players won the NC this year

 

[Sabanocchio]

There's enough leftover athletes in-state and academic casualties to field a decent team at La Tech.

That's why they haven't signed a 4 star player this century and over 70% of them are 2 stars.

'04 USC is a top 5 all-time CFB team imo.

Kiffin = Skank. k:

O = Skanks's Pimp. :clapping:

Success in the NFL is irrelevant to what they do in college.

 

[Co. Aytch]

Well, it was really great to find out about the players that the staff went to visit the past couple of days. I learned alot.

 

[hatvol96]

Wow. You are 100% certain?

Why wouldn't I be? When America elected George W. Bush, I was 100% certain a mouthbreathing retard had become president. Why? He was a mouthbreathing retard when he was the governor of Texsucks. Thus, I'm confident Dooley will be a failure at Tennessee. Why? He was a failure at Louisiana Tech. Stepping up in weight class when you haven't proven you can handle you business where you're at doesn't work out well.

 

[Sabanocchio]

and you have literally lost every single one of them.

There you go again, thinking you can simply write it and it comes true.

You haven't proven a single thing while I have continually proven you wrong.

It is what it is, LV. You can't change history just by writing a different headline.

 

[VolsByNature]

I'm having fun

 

[justingroves]

That's why they haven't signed a 4 star player this century and over 70% of them are 2 stars.

You're not helping eric or Dooley out.

Remember Rolando Melancon? Lennon Creer? Ahmad Paige?

Where are they now?

I agree with the first half of your post, but there was evidence that W was an idiot and poorly equipped for the duties of President.

There is simply not that kind of evidence here. We've never seen what Dooley can do once he has the players. We've seen what Kiffin can do with NFL caliber ones.

 

[CountVolcula]

I'm 100% certain he's going to fail. Thus, I am preemptively hoping the athletic department keeps the suffering to a minimum. Dooley's tenure will be to Tennessee history what John Blake's was to OU's.

Is that a Johnnie Walker Blue Label 100% for certain?

In realitly, I have been the one proving you wrong in every thread for the past 24 hours, but you simply cannot admit defeat while me and my peers laff at ya.

keep telling yourself you won. we keep laffing.

you will not be able to get out that hole before long.

 

[g8terh8ter_eric]

Success in the NFL is irrelevant to what they do in college.

Yet Kiffin's whole motive is to propagate his ability to get players to the NFL. They may get there, but a lot of them don't play. I'm talking about his so-called great receivers at USC as well. Just saying. I never researched it last year, because I figured he was telling the truth. The more I look and find out about what he actually did at USC, the more I realize that the Pac-10 sucked, and it was easy for them to get the best players in California and the Pacific West because of that.

Riiiight? And I love the 1st post in the thread...CLASSIC!

 

[kptvol]

Eli has a Super Bowl, and Trent isn't that bad.

Hence why Matt Leinart being unable to surplant Kurt Warner doesn't mean he sucks. Trent Green actually had a few really good years.

As for the 2005 Trojans, Steve Smith has been solid. I believe Sam Baker is a starter somewhere.

 

[Sabanocchio]

You're not helping eric or Dooley out.

Melancon never played a down for LA tech and ended up transferring to Texas Southern.

But these aren't the LSU "leftovers" you were talking about. You're not helping your own argument a bit.
