Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Voltrapnbama]

I didn't realize Venables made 2.4 million. It would take 10 million to walk away from a job he has been at for 9 years plus has sophomore and Freshman sons playing.

Gundy just wanted a raise.

Was thinking about Gundy a few weeks ago. Where would UT be if he would’ve accepted a UT offer and how good of a coach would he be at a SEC school?

Here are some fun stats from Pruitt's 3 years. Mind you, there are 127 total NCAA teams

Defensive rankings by ppg- 77th, 29th, 71st
Defensive ranking by ypg- 49th, 23rd, 64th
Defensive ranking by yards per play- 67th, 24th, 76th

Offensive ranking by ppg- 110th, 97th, 108th
Offensive ranking by ypg- 122nd, 72nd, 104th
Offensive ranking by yards per play- 89th, 72nd, 94th

How does Fulmer defend this?

Dobbs isn’t here no more & you're pinning all your hopes on a freshman based on about 6-8 quarters played this year with an 80’s style offensive scheme

That’s why I said “could”. I swear, reading comprehension seems so difficult for some. Go back and look at the conversation. I never said we would go 9-3.

no where to go but up?

Basilio said this yesterday. Add one for him.

 

[drvenner]

For our investigation, our show cause will require us to keep Pruitt three more years.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Fulmer believes Pruitt is a good coach and will it turn it around here. More importantly, thinks Pruitt's better than the current pool of coaches that are available.

And some people still believe Fulmer is cut out to be the AD?

Chadwell runs an offense FOR the talent he has. Gus recruited his offensive players to run a 5 play offense. Gus also has the SEC to thank for that roster. Do you seriously not think Chadwell could recruit players the same way Gus did?

No. Chadwell would be a bust and we'd be back here in 3 years.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

So, yall insiders still think Pruitt is gone? Lol

Bro, we have one regularly posting insider on this board and that's AV. And he's wrong 60% of the time. No one knows what's going on over there because it is so dysfunctional. Even if AV was right one minute, the next it could have changed.

Is that the punishment?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Signing off and buying a maroon pirate suit once that is official.

It's been nice knowing you. Please drop by and say hi every once in awhile.

 

[Batman1948]

How can Fulmer keep Pruitt from getting fired? I thought the decision was more in the hands of boosters and Boyd?

So did our insiders. Gruden was coming too.

 

[SLICKYINC]

Basilio said this yesterday. Add one for him.

Been rumored for way longer than TB mentioning it.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

We need Rev Freeze.

 

[give_him 6]

Been rumored for way longer than TB mentioning it.

Been rumored but TB said it yesterday was happening

 

[UTfan94]

Is that the punishment?

Please no.

 

[Jimmy Football]

And some people still believe Fulmer is cut out to be the AD?

Yeah, he’s a terrible AD.

Coming with that hot heat

 

[Batman1948]

Salter is smiling really big right now and he will be here in mid January or sooner if they don't make it to their championship game

 

[drvenner]

no where to go but up?

LOL, that is never true. We can always sink further.

Chadwell runs an offense FOR the talent he has. Gus recruited his offensive players to run a 5 play offense. Gus also has the SEC to thank for that roster. Do you seriously not think Chadwell could recruit players the same way Gus did?

My main concern with Chadwell, is can he handle everything else? The next coach here is going to be under a microscope and expected to perform at a high level in the next 2 years. Is Chadwell ready for that? Can he handle the AD, boosters, the academic side, and us, the fans? That's a lot to put on a guy coming from Myrtle Beach.

 

[BJWeeks]

Heres the problem that we're having. Fulmer does not want to make a coaching change. He's dead set on bringing back Pruitt next year. Several boosters are willing to pay up for a new coach, and Fulmer is the lone voice in the room trying to convince them to wait on Pruitt. We have been inquiring and reaching out quietly to see which coaches would be interested, that's why I said get the flight trackers ready because Its interesting to see who they talk to. Auburn struggling to find a coach helps Fulmer's cause as well.

Another interesting move is if Boyd decides to make move without Fulmer. Pruitt losing half his staff certainly doesn't bode well for him and I think Fulmer knows that. Gonna be an interesting couple of weeks.

If Fulmer doesn't cooperate then the Boosters can just refuse to give any more money to the University. Boyd will then have no choice right?

 

[DustyRockSolid]

Then they deserve the consequences

I agree.

 

[drvenner]

Is that the punishment?

Yup, can you think of anything worse?
