Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[HankHill]

They are not tied together. Fulmer has much more sway than that.

Right.

Fulmer will outlast Pruitt. That’s not really a debate at this point. Fulmer has way more excuses for hiring Pruitt than Pruitt has for fielding one of the worst teams in Tennessee history.

This cancellation was for SEC scheduling purposes.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I think it’s definitely trending in that direction.

People will see how far we are from Florida, when in 2017 those programs both made hires off of 4-8 seasons, and they’ll want to start over.

I think we're acutely aware. We got lapped.

Mullen is a total douche bag. But he can coach.

 

[Atlanta VOL]

I’m sure @Atlanta VOL can speak more to this because I’ve heard the same - but it’s not just the losses. Pruitt’s prickly attitude behind the scenes is not allowing for much grace by the folks that matter.

You can act like that when you win...and get away with it with the high brow folk...
That **** doesn’t work with those folks when you are loosing...

Fair or not he’s a prick, red neck from Alabama. The benefit of the doubt runs out very quickly with those factors

Fire me attitude

FIX FOOTBALL, FULMER

 

[Atlanta VOL]

Exactly. I don’t understand why some people want to act like Fulmer has to be loyal to Pruitt. No one is going to hold that hire against Fulmer given the sh*tshow he was thrown into. If anything Fulmer can look like the savior now by hiring the right guy.

There is someone extremely powerful who will without question hold that hire against Fulmer and use it fully to their advantage.

Good, ive always thought Pruitt had a im the smartest guy in the room attitude. His comments about the fans post Auburn couldn't have helped. Now lets get his ass out and get a new guy. Or promote Tee.

High brow you say?

 

[Ace]

This was an SEC decision.
We play Florida on the 5th, Vandy on the 12th and A&M on the 19th

You’d know better than I, but even if the person you’re talking about holds it against Fulmer, Boyd still makes the call and he’ll give Papaw Phil another mistake or two before pulling any trigger on him.

Tell Haslam that utvols88 says that he can eat a bag of dicks and take a lap.

 

[millst987]

No way Pruitt makes it if that’s the real schedule
I just don’t see it

Play? That's a weird way to spell lose.

Ah. I'll believe it when I see it. I think we're all emotional after a long year, and getting shelacked.

I have no doubt you and AV know people. $30-40 million after a **** storm of coaching searches. This AD wont make a move until time is right. Everything else is wishful thinking.

We all know donors, some small some big. The big talk to small, on golf course. It all trickles down. This pandemic has peoppe gun shy.

Pruitt can withstand losses to Tamu and Florida.

Lose to Vandy? All bets are off.

Now, in a normal year? He shouldnt utter another word as TN BC.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

I used to think that way, then JG happened. My will to watch has been beaten out of me blow by blow.

 

[KPT_VFL]

So the reschedule was truly to dodge Vandy because players were out and Phil thought we’d lose and he’d have to can Pruitt. Hire Freeze!!! I’m sure you all have talked about Freeze being there.

 

[Atlanta VOL]

If we play vandy this weekend we would loose...
And we could play if we wanted to. I won’t elaborate anymore than that.

 

[RikidyBones]

And one more thing @Atlanta VOL if Haslam says something foolish like "who the hell is utvols88, an 11 year old?" Remind him, in kind, that I go to one game a year and I drive a DODGE STRATUS AND PEOPLE FEAR ME
