Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Z06VolinWV]

Does it matter? I vote for you.

Nah, won’t catch me in Memphis. Florida bowl, I’d be game!

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

So, now that we are back to living in reality and all the nonsense is behind us.

Let’s start speculating on something that actually will happen. Assistant coach changes.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

- Hubbs

Man, he is really going to go from one of our most beloved coaches to being hated by Vol fans. No matter if Pruitt is hired or fired, if he is truly wanting to not make a change, his legacy will be tarnished forever.

 

[HankHill]

Fulmer?Tee?Chaney?.... TN has fired coaches before bowl games before, that's BS

What if other assistants are out again and it’s Bc of the investigation and just can’t coach? I don’t know with 100% certainty that he will be fired but i would say it’s like 99% that he will not be our coach next year because of on field performance and now off the field concerns. It’s just a meaningless bowl game that we literally HAVE to play in. I’ve also said before that many people believe fulmer would never fire a coach until after the season. Ie:holly, everyone knew she was gone. The season is still going on. Let’s pump the breaks until at least a few days after the bowl game and until ncaa investigation finishes up.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Wait and see.

What I’m telling you is they will be “in support” of whichever way this thing swings.

They are not backing Fulmer right now.

Fulmer has two people on his side - Thunder Thornton and Charlie Anderson. The rest are in the fire Pruitt camp.

Not sure it really matters but I think Hubbs is employed by

Not the Tenn AD

So wait forever and lose pretty much any credible candidate? I don't see it.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Congrats on the upgrade.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I keep seeing the talk of Hubbs being an employee of the AD.

that isn’t correct is it?

Isn’t the vol network completely separated and a privately owned business?

Vol Network is considered like a 3rd party contractor. Part of Learfield IMG College.

No. It’s not. University owns it and its why vol network, much like VFL films employees are technically University of Tennessee employees.

 

[BigOrangeVols]

 

[Bruce Wayne]

No. It’s owned by ut athletics.

He is paid by the university athletic department.

He is a UT employee.

No it isnt.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

This is not true.

Correct, Vol Network owns rights to UT broadcasts. Hubbs is not an employee of UT
Guess what? Mike Hamilton is Executive VP for company that owns Vol Network
Mike Hamilton - Learfield IMG College

 

[BruinVol]

No. It’s not. University owns it and its why vol network, much like VFL films employees are technically University of Tennessee employees.

am I wrong ?

 

[05_never_again]

This is the least boring program in sports. What a journey.

It’s the least boring...off the field. It’s incredibly boring, and incredibly bad, on the field.

 

[SpringBokVol]

It’s not owned my img ?

Not owned - supported by them for their network.

Who is going anywhere? College season isn’t over... nfl isn’t close to over. Auburn is open... so what. No other job effects ours if/when it comes open.

 

[HankHill]

This is not true.

It’s absolutely true.

"NCAA is not involved at this point. Investigation is internal and by the University. We will see what it turns into. Might end up being nothing. Might be more involved. Too early to say in my opinion. I think they have found more things to look into once they started looking into the initial issue."- Hubbs

 

[SLICKYINC]

Pate discussing Pruitt now.

He ain’t wrong

 

[UpstateVol613]

Jets even lose at losing.
