Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[mr.checkerboards]

Pn Pruitts coaches show sounds like we may see some new guys after the bye. He flat out said guys need to play better or they'll be replaced. Bob didn't ask him if that included 2 unfortunately

Has absolutely nothing to do with my post. Also if Palmer wasn’t there that is another touchdown for Hyatt.

The ball was thrown to Palmer, Hyatt ran the wrong route and brought an extra defender in to make the play. If Hyatt doesn't do that, Palmer might have caught the TD that hit him in the hands anyways.

And yes it does have to do with your post. If Hyatt wants to play more he has to run the right routes, run block correctly, and do more than just run gos and deep posts. It took them this long to teach him that, and he's still making mistakes.

Really not that hard.

He’s saying be patient in year 3, not year 9.

We’d have a new coach every 3 years if some of y’all go to decide.

Look at it this way - if Pruitt doesn’t end up being the guy then he will have at least given the next coach a roster of SEC players that compete.

No more tiny OL. We’ve got young speed and playmakers. Our D will have legit athletes. The roster is improving. So let’s see if Pruitt can use the talent and get this thing rolling and if not, then after 4-5 years of his recruiting then we’ll be sitting pretty for the next coach.

It’s called expectations and we have to start raising them. I don’t want a new coach every three years. No one does. But when you look worse in year three than the previous year, that is a problem. It’s also not a good look to have so many assistants leave every single year for a brand new head coach. Recruiting is important but you have to be able to coach them up and play the right players. We are more talented than Kentucky and just got throttled.

Keyton needs to catch a dang ball!!

He reminds me of Banks as a RB. Banks couldn't hold on to the ball and Keyton can't seem to catch the ball. That's a shame too because I really believe he has talent. He may be lacking confidence in his abilities on the big stage.

 

[bleedsUTorange]

Someone help me out here. Relevance?

Speculation. Contrary to what some thought yesterday during the broadcast, this is the coach the crew referred to regarding housekeeping with ncaa

 

[Weezer]

Guess a coach needs ten years to turn a program around. Sounds like a bunch of excuses. This isn’t year one or even year two.

For our program, it's quite possible, and every time we play musical chairs and replace one unproven head coach with another unproven head coach, the wait gets longer.

We're not hiring Hugh Freeze. Just not happening. We won't hire a name coach. All the evidence we need is in every coaching search since Fulmer was let go. Firing Pruitt right now to replace him with another unproven coach would hurt us far more than just keeping Pruitt. Even if he's not the guy, we're better off waiting until his buyout is far less. It'll help us financially, and it doesn't continue the existing narrative that we don't give coaches enough time. Coaches are aware how impatient our fanbase is, and that's another obstacle for us in hiring.

Nope. On pruitts coaches show. Pruitt said palmer ran the wrong route. The ball was supposed to go to Hyatt

who would coach QB?

 

[RikidyBones]

I don’t believe Chaney has the QB to allow him to do that.

I think he does but that's not the guy being shoved into QB1

 

[BruinVol]

And Jansen can’t be a spectator. Has to be backing up somewhere and not standing in the middle of the field

Yep that’s the worst part of it

 

[Bantha fodder]

It's possible but that is the absolute ceiling IMO. I think we win two more.

It all depends on the Arkansas outcome. Who would have thought that before the UK beat down?

 

[901LookAlive]

IMO they need to flip Tank to SS and develop Key at FS. Flowers doesnt seem like the kind of player who likes to be a downhill safety that position requires.

Also, the jury is out on our LBs cheating up to
stop the run and they have to address covering slants and seam routes during the bye week. Sham has not looked good since returning so I’m giving Slaughter some more snaps.

Beasley also needs more PT. A bit undersized for MIKE but he appears like he can run in coverage.

I've long said Flowers plays football like a baseball player. Remember that guy Dooley signed that played minor league baseball and came here to play DB? Flowers plays exactly like that guy. I'm all for Beasley sliding next to Toot, and honestly I think we haven't seen it because he plays Toot position while Crouch and Bank get all the reps at the other spot.

That was Palmer's route. Hyatt was on the inside. I think he ran the wrong route.

Bob asked about 2 on the coaches show last night and Pruitt was complementary to say the least. Said he continues to get better.

No doubt JG is the QB in two weeks.

Unfortunately you are correct. Not turning the ball over yesterday lengthened the leash back to the size of the Mississippi

 

[HankHill]

Definitely Tee. Definitely not Ansley. If we need to hire a new HC and it’s not a very proven one (Freeze), then give me Tee or some other VFL. I know they will at the least give their all and never quit with these conservative crap game plans.

Ansley is a grinder and is very similar to Tee personality wise. I get the Tennessee pull with tee obviously but without that i think the two are very similar

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Did we really not give up a passing TD yesterday....to Bama?

First time in almost 4 years Bama didn’t have a TD pass in a game. Crazy stat.

 

[barrylee]

Long story short, other than Kentucky we are where I thought we would be. If we come out after the bye week and play good football and beat Arky like we should all this may be forgotten. I think we see several youngsters play in 2 weeks and we look like a completely different team, I truly do.. But if I’m wrong and we crap the bed I’m taking a hiatus from here, it will be unbearable.
JMO though..

I think Maurer and the team will have something to say about that.

 

[GojiraVol17]

But all we can talk about is firing our head coach and reshuffling everything.

 

[Weezer]

Need a real DL coach, then Pruitt and Ansley need to split duties and one coach CBs and the other the safeties. Our secondary should be better than it is.

 

[Rishvol]

Should've been 2-3 INTs

 

[millst987]

Watching Maurer again, kid has some wheels
He’s just needs to play
