Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Ten_Titans]

We’re not getting a big name.
Gus can clean this up
Gives Tennessee a name the SEC can respect

OR

get another hopeful and do it again in 3 years.

We'll be doing it again in 3 years if we get Gus. High risk no reward.

Like signing Art Garfunkel to a 200 million record label and world tour. It's a complete misunderstanding of how that Auburn team has won games.

What better way to disguise your search than to not have an opening to have to fill?

Chess not checkers?

Auburn in Citrus vs Northwestern

I think Gus would be fine as a CEO type. Hire 2 veteran coordinators, not just DC. Someone else he can trust play calling with. And a really good QB coach. He’d dominate the transfer market imo

That’s my whole point. Is he going to be here forever no but if the price is right I’d be damn thrilled for him to come in fix the mess, get us some wins, and set the stage for the next guy.

Call it the Barnes plan idc

This doesn't make any sense. If our compliance department is self reporting violations to the NCAA and we're trying to get out front with self imposed restrictions, why in the world would they be discussing bowl destinations?

Do Ohio St to TYS. There was a plane from Columbus that was in Knoxville yesterday. The plane is linked to the university

 

[Vols4us]

Stability does not bring winning at a high level. Winning at a high level brings stability. Gus is stability without winning at a high level, which is why Auburn fired him.

Gus, he could be here to coach the bowl game. We also have cabins just down the road in Gatlinburg that he can do his recruiting in. He knows how to cheat and can teach our admin how. And he's not Pruitt. Hes coached in 2 NC games, Has been to 3 NY6 bowls and he has beaten Bama three times. Its a great hire.

 

[Batman1948]

We flat-out need a QB with some wheels.

Coming in January-----Salter

 

[Vol423]

Would you rather pan for some gold and end up with some quartz for your trouble?

I rather take a chance on someone who could possibly be a great hire than settle for hiring a coach that will be average but has no chance at being a great hire.

Plain and simple.

Liberty vs Coastal Carolina in Cure Bowl

 

[Dudleys87]

What coaches excite you?

Probably

Meyer
Stoops
Or
some wait and sees

who would put us in the same boat when they quit or were fired

So Ohio State is flying in our new coach? Mighty nice of them.

Gus would be a disastrous hire.

this... It's really uncanny when you go back and look at some of those wins vs bama, UGA LSU etc... Some unbelievable ish had to happen in some of his biggest wins...

 

[JacketVol]

How does Bama just keep turning over new QBs who are just unflappable. They never seem to have a bad QB - and even the QBs they feel are bad would be day 1 starter at Tennessee

Starts at the LOS. Bailey would do great behind that line. Have all day and can go thru progressions and dynamic receivers but it all starts with the line.

We aren’t exactly in a position to win at a high level. We’ve been poorly coached for how long? It won’t fix itself overnight

Liberty vs Coastal Carolina in Future Vol Bowl

[Catbone]

The sad part is you know damn well Phil and others are fighting tooth and nail to retain Pruitt. Btw if he's here next year I am going to go ape ****

I actually feel like Malzahn is one of the lower risk moves we could make.

No, Napier, Chadwell would. Gus has won in the SEC

 

[drvenner]

We talking about football, not mathematics my dude. Going for two at that point in time is beyond stupid. Point blank period.

Lol, Ok. You don't want to see reason, you go ahead and keep that mind closed.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Get your flight trackers out VN. AD is making moves behind the scenes today.

Same with Freeze.... It’s football it happens.

Same with Fulmer and his national championship
