Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[BigSteve09]

The combo of OU showing up and Ohio St struggling does not bode well for the Vols in the 2nd half. It is statement time.

“Pruitt is out after today. talked to staff member on Liberty and Tn has been in talks w Freeze for a month. Freeze also turned down Auburn and they are in panic mode. Don't shoot the messenger but this guy is the real deal and its happening.“

Let's go!

 

[InVOLuntary]

I'm to the point I don't give a Norris dam who we get, just kick this fraud out. He's not a coach.

Bailey has so much potential
He just needs development and time

Never. Ever. Happening.

WOW NW just got an INT

Frosh DB making plays on the big stage. Imagine that.

On a to z Crompton kinda suggested maybe Fulmer leaked the info

 

[Odiodin]

The NCAA isn’t going to do crap guys
You still hire Freeze

It would be more believable if Fulmer wasn’t the AD.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Crompton on that AZ show just said "From people I know and that I speak to, a certain someone is gone. Not gonna go into further detail. You can read between the lines on that one".

Paraphrasing.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Wonder if he’d be announced today if so?

No. Even if it is true and a done deal which I doubt, we'd have a feux search.

Same could be said about Shrout. If he was developed properly last year he would have been a killer this year.

 

[FiremedicVOL127]

FWIW I heard young money is Morgan Wallen, and that he is tired of all the mistakes he’s made with people from Alabama this year.

Ok fill me in please, I'm lost in left field!!

I like them both

Fulmer knows he F'd up on the contract extension, so he leaked the info to lower the buyout. Genius.

 

[VolInDayton]

A&M isnt playoff caliber, OSU doesn't deserve the playoffs. At this point put UC in. Atleast they played games and won. That use to be what CFB was about.

 

[preacherwebb]

I choose to believe... and I choose Joy.

I Love It!!!
"Choose Joy" has become the new "Soon."
I was all in on "soon" and I'm all in on choosing joy.

My brother in law is a mover for mayflower, I just gave him a call and he's on his way to Pruitts house to move his crap. And im paying for the cost.

Major donation.. We thank you.

Does anyone else find it extremely hilarious the UGA Ray was actually right?

I’d like this, but with the news coming out today about ncaa investigation, would be interesting how they spin this. National media would already have a field day with this, now they have more ammo. Will be a good exercise in pr management for sure, if this ends up playing out.

 

[Govolsman98]

Imagine the excitement going into next season with coach Freeze.

Man I'm getting hyped just thinking about it

 

[SpringBokVol]

Same.

Very sensible in theory, but you won't get a decent coach to sign anything like that. Agents now strike mitigation clauses and demand sweeteners before presenting contracts to clients. Buyouts are favorable to coaches, and performance-based clauses are generally escalators that penalize schools and benefit coaches.

A school wanting to hire an in-demand coach goes into negotiations handcuffed. The more in demand a coach is-- or the more adeptly he can use the media to convince a school he is-- the more leverage the agent has to broker deals that would have been outrageous a few years ago. Even assistants are demanding-- and getting-- incredibly favorable terms. With increased mobility and TV money, it's only going to get worse.

All that TV money...HC salaries increasing 10-fold in 20 years, but We cAnT aFfOrD tO paY tHe PlAyERs

I'm firmly in the "Anyone but Pruitt" camp. This dude is worse than Dooley by far. It ain't even close
