Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

I’ve been here long enough to see our fans extremely offended that x program is said to be a better job than UT

To now we are arguing the point of “well if he didn’t go there, he’s definitely not coming here!”

Funny not funny.

Tea leaves reading

Dabo is the next coach of the Jags
Napier is the next coach at Clemson
Marrone is the next coach of the Vols

THAT pukes me

Steele is a snake because the boosters wanted to hire him after Gus got fired? Jesus.

Maybe if Gus didn't want to get fired, he could have tried fielding an offense ranked in the top half of FBS. You know. The only side of the ball he works on.

Are you Kevin Steele?

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Auburn gonna end up promoting Rodney Garner.

 

[snowvols]

Someone sell me on a Urban coaching tree hire. I mean not that we’re looking or anything but just for funsies.

Fickell, Herman, Mullen, Whittingham, and Day just off the top of my head. His assistants have been really good.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Are you Kevin Steele?

Are you Gus Malzahn?

 

[engineerVOL]

Haha what did Gustavo dooooo?!?

If Dabo left I think Elliott would get that job. Napier and Dabo aren't friends from what I understand.

Getting better.

Bill Clark is gonna get the Auburn job and prolly be really good or really bad.

Ok, Fickell. Let’s get him and call it done.

Really really good

We needed him badly

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Auburn is firing a coach off of an 8 year tenure. We are (hopefully) firing a coach off of a 3 year tenure.

Auburn's big games every year are Bama, Georgia, LSU. Our big games are Bama, Georgia, Florida.

Neither of those claims make any sense.

He also had almost a 70% winning record and was 6-4 this year. Pruitt is less than 50%, more blow out losses in three years than our previous two failures combined, and is 3-7 this year. Not comparable.

 

[Geronimo]

There’s no question we need a CEO and great coordinators that can develop all levels of talent.

So my question is:

In the small pool of realistic candidates that have been named, are any of them good recruiters?

As much as we want great coaching, recruiting Ian the lifeblood of any program.

I don’t follow other teams/coaches so I have very little idea about Napier, Chadwell, etc.

 

[Dooby15]

Auburn job probably not that attractive since it’s pretty well known they tried to go behind Malzahn’s back to get Steele in.

 

[Kid Deezy]

Ok, Fickell. Let’s get him and call it done.

Gotta fire ole Asparagus first and that's looking bleaker by the minute

 

[Jimmy Football]

Bill Clark is a heckuva coach. They’ll be luckier than they realize if they back into that hire.

The fact auburn is where they are and freeze still isn’t an option should tell us all we need to know

 

[RiotVol]

Explain the Strickland dunking on Currie clause of that sentence like I'm 5. Please.

Currie thought he had Mullen locked up, and Strickland swooped and offered him the Florida job. Mullen took the Florida job. I don’t know how comparable the offers were...

 

[engineerVOL]

Auburn will luck into a great plan C.

 

[SLICKYINC]

That they’re really dumb?

 

[jakez4ut]

Auburn.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Go get Matt Entz (North Dakota State). 17-0 record, going to have a top 10 pick in Trey Lance. His buyout is $315,000.

I would take him over Pruitt. lol
