Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

Not gonna lie, That’s pretty awesome!!!

I'm glad Pruit was pissed after a win. We didn't play well at all, actually made a lot of dumb plays that could of easily lost the game. 2 blocked FG's are inexcuable. Coaches should never satisfied, and always looking to improve. That's what makes Pruitt a great coach. Butch Jones would of been happy with that effort, not Pruitt.

What was the tweet about?

Seems to just make a tweet that can be misinterpreted ever so often.
People respond and straight up ask him if he means TN or something else and he won't respond.

Hypothetical question then- If we had won are first two games and we’re now at 8-3 would you still feel that way?

Honest answer is yes. Still a decent gap between us and UF, uga, bama. Until we play them to the wire or win consistently, I will continue to believe we need better classes.

It's just so tough to beat the #1 & #2 recruiting programs consistently with "just" top 15 classes. It's a possibility, don't get me wrong. But the odds are so far against one at that point.

The Vols won, recruiting is kicking into gear, the board isnt slow.

I loved how cole called him out. It was funny. I think it caught Pruitt off guard but he seemed to appreciate it.

I agree - I think CJP even used the conversation in his post game presser statement.

Unlike the "who cares? We won" people, Pruitt gets it. It is about the process/decisions, not the results.

Pruitt can often be happy about the way we played during a loss and furious about how we played while winning. He gets IT. He is process-oriented, not results-oriented.

JG was supposed to be the guy and proved to be our “best qb”. We really didn’t lose any QBs so to speak.

Franks was no doubt their guy and they lost him for almost the entire season.

Both crappy situations, i think losing one to injury as opposed to one not meeting expectations is different.

Losing Franks actually helped them.

Penn State would be a blood bath. Give me Michigan, though.

Other way around. Michigan is playing really well right now

I had no idea you could drop kick an onside kick

 

[Catbone]

Need Butch to get a real job so we can stop paying him. Need those extra millions to pay 5*s ungodly amounts of money

Don't think we're at a place yet to where we can compete with either of those programs right now. I'd rather have an easy bowl win against some scrub team than either of those two.

Remind me why Mariota started over Tannehill again

Should I go ahead and use this to start the Vandy game thread? I mean I’m 1-0 when I start a game thread.

Back in September I composed this post:

After observing JG this year, it has become apparent to me that even though he may possess certain physical gifts that can be honed through repetition, he lacks the innate, God-given cerebral talents necessary to be a productive QB. He seems to have no sense of athletic timing, nor does he have that uncanny, almost extrasensory knack for seeing things develop before they actually do. Two things which good QBs and Point Guards in basketball have. I don't suspect that the kid is uncoachable, I believe he's a victim of low football acumen and will never be better than fair-to-middling. You either have it, or you don't. In my opinion, he doesn't. It pains me disparage him because he seems to be a fine, upstanding young man.



JG has proven that I have no idea what I am talking about and I will glady dine on crow.

My favorite ”eat crow” post ever!

I thought it was kind of funny when Cubelic interviewed him after the game. Asked Pruitt how excited he was to take this team to a bowl game or something like that and Pruitt just kind of hit him with a blank stare.

Pruitt and Mullen are polar opposite post game interviews

Butch to MSState or Arkansas

Please let him go to Arkansas, please let him go to Arkansas, please let him go to Arkansas! For the single reason alone that we play them next year, he would not take that job.

Anything but Sabans fluffer. It’s past the point of being embarrassing.

LOL! I am not going to do that to you this week, Nick. However, can you get the game thread up and running before you eat Thanksgiving? If it’s not up by at least Wednesday night, I’m starting the thread.

Don’t expect a champions of life comment anytime soon. Love his reaction to the win last night. He is focused.

More for him. His nickname is Monica.
