Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[SweetasSoda]

With the current momentum and # of prospects interested, I bet the staff is regretting taking some of the early commitments.

So with the spots left, we looking at 1 DE, 1 TE, 1 LB, 1 OL?

Pruitt plays chess not checkers. He isn't regretting anything.

So SASsy....

Excuse me?

Trig jokes are too graphic?

Wait until @SSVol gets in here. You think he can leave these low-hanging math puns alone.

Of cosecant.

Man, I'm glad to see you back posting on here.

So here’s my take on this. If you start to build a house, you lay the foundation, put on roof, then start to install plumbing, electrical, gas service lines, etc.

I’m not saying Pruitt wouldn’t leave to go elsewhere, that’s just the nature of the beast. BUT, in my opinion, why would you wanna leave a school that has a rich tradition, can recruit with anyone in the country, you have a AD that BLEEDS orange, and a fan base that is bat **** crazy about the VOLS, and if given a little bit of time can return to a national powerhouse. And he can win TITLES here. He’s in a great situation and his family loves Knoxville. He could have waited out and went back to Bama as a assistant and then became a Head coach in waiting. Instead, he came to TN. He knew, with a couple good recruiting classes he could awake the monster that is TENNESSEE FOOTBALL. And make no mistake, TN belongs with the Elite.

And yes, I know he has Bama blood. I get that. But it’s gonna be awfully hard to follow in Sabans footsteps. Doesn’t matter who comes in after Saban, living up to those standards is gonna be hard for anyone. Saban is one of the best coaches of all time. Period.

There is also different personnel in charge at UT now. As long as Phil is in Charge, he will throw his weight around, no pun intended. People listen to Phil, he demands excellence and won’t settle for anything less. When he walks into any complex on campus, people pay attention to him, they know that he is Mr. Vol. He demands respect and gets it.

For the record, Phil really likes Pruitt. They have a strong bond and Phil knows the program is in good hands.

So for people that still say, “Pruitt is a Bama guy”, yes he is, but he’s also a VOL, and a think will be for a long time. If we start to win and win consistently, UT will pony up and pay him. And I don’t have any doubts that UT is gonna win and win big in the near future.

This class is going to change the VOLS. Better buckle up cause it’s just gonna get more crazy in the next few months.

Btw, got two that will soon. Stay tuned.

Y’all have a great week.

Thanks for replying

We are back. Show it on the field next. 9-10 regular season wins this year, IMO.

Remind me never to tweet mean things to anyone whoever got their arse beaten by Mike Tyson.

I'd buy those PPVs in a heartbeat of armchair tweeter warriors saying **** like "Cerrone didn't even punch Connor, I could do better than that!" lol

On the bright side, we chipped into Ohio State’s lead this weekend with our commitment streak we’re only 600 points away

Maybe his first game against Bama, he was envious of the roster that he helped recruit. However, this year we all saw him look across the field with hate in his heart. I still say that moment that the refs mysteriously blew a play dead to allow Bama to get their act together is the moment that Pruitt became one of us.

You gonna take that, @secking?

I’m not Rusty but common sense will tell you that narrative is false. Otherwise, Arik Gilbert would have been a dawg. Rusty and Arik’s family are REALLY close. Kids in Ga rely heavily on Rusty. He puts on camps for these kids to get noticed. Kids from UTC level to UT. There is another recruit this cycle that is leaning on Rusty for recruiting advice and is a top choice for UGA, kid isn’t leaning UGA.

Zero talk on the Georgia board of ZE at TN every being legit.just happy he didn’t land at Florida .I’m kinda surprised to be honest.Maybe we wasn’t in it as much as we originally thought Florida board is having a melt down though

ok Rusty

 

[csprig9]

I just hope our team is doing their workouts and trying to get better

After this is over and the season starts your gonna see what teams really want to win IMO, it’ll be the ones that continued off season workouts and did every they could to workout and study film

May sound stupid but you might see a different champ this year depending on which team took this time away from campus as series as they could with the situation they were put in

 

[secking]

ok Rusty

On a good note, UF boards are glorious today. "The University of Florida under Dan Mullen, where recruiters come to die”

I’ve always thought the “secking is Rusty” stuff was just a joke, but now I’m not so sure...

Bring me all the salty Gator tears. The fact that they thought they were actually in it is the funniest part to me.
