Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[vol4eva]

This, and those 7 losses were all double digit losses. Those games weren't even close.

How do you not get fired with those results?

 

[Vols4us]

If he's back, is Jeremy going to coach the O-line in addition to the D-line? HS staffs don't get as many assistants as CFB - so Jeremy would probably like that. Phill could save UT some money that way. Silver lining thing again.

Pruitt reading the recruiting talk forum

 

[vol4eva]

Complete clown show. These are decisions that cripple the program. Nobody gonna give a **** next year, recruiting will plummet and it's going to be more costly. **** UTs admin all the way from Boyd to Fulmer

Everyone associated with running this football program can get ******. Every single one of them.

 

[Jimmy Football]

How do you not get fired with those results?

It’s an admission by our administration that they don’t believe we’re the program we used to be. I never thought it would be Phil Fulmer leading the charge, however.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Clowns are running the show.

If the last 3 coaching searches and the results of those coaching searches haven't revealed that I don't know what will.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If matts is correct, - oh well, more money for golf and travel again this year. Silver lining thing.

The one thing I am sad and upset about is that I used to care deeply about Vol football. I even changed my number in HS to be Steve Kiner's #57, I was so inspired by him and Vol D. Living in other parts of the country part of my life before getting back to East TN, I still found ways to go to their games in K-town or on the road. Not anymore even with living here.

I will watch the games when available to do so. Want to see how big the gap gets between the Vols as bottom feeders versus the better programs. Even USCe will beat them next season. Mizzou will stomp them. That magnificent Pruitt D will be boat raced by them and others. So I see a max of 4 wins. Vandy East here we come. Set back yet another year adding to the 15 before it. Phil's legacy forever tarnished.

Or, they can do the right thing.

But I take heart in all of the dogs, guns, and horse posts. Y'all are my people. Choose joy.

I will always be a Vol, and only a Vol...period. I will be right here waiting if/when this gets turned around.

I carry a Smith & Wesson mp9 shield. I love it easy to carry and use

Same here.

 

[vol4eva]

Thank the Lord for Rick Barnes.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Same here.

Man, you guys have a small fortune in armaments.

Not a gun guy at all, by any stretch of the imagination. BUT i get it.

Had a great client get shot at point blank range in last couple weeks. Crazy.

All Ill say about that. RIP brother.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

So swan man said he’s back......we are Kentucky and South Carolina now....if we’re lucky

We’re just a slightly better Vandy team now.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

They don't care, 'member?

They care about lining their pockets. Period. If the fanbase is done, they will make a change. If they think they can get one more year until we are done, then they will do that. The people running this program all believe they are smarter and better than every single one of us. They love this fanbases blind optimism and honestly stupidity. We are literally insane. Showing up to big games and expecting or hoping to win is craziness. Sorry that I know many people who have poured blood and sweat into this program and want better. Ones that go to UT games to sign autographs and do events because the University asks. But when they call they are not heard, they are told things are being worked out and they are doing what is best for the program when they really aren’t. I’m fed up just hearing about it and I know they are fed up with this program being a joke. I would take a staff of VFLs tomorrow. This team would not be the soft roll overs like they are now. They wouldn’t stand for it and would get every ounce out of those kids. Like I’ve said before, last year JG came off the field after a pick pouting and no one talked to him. No coach yelled at anyone. He said he wanted to snatch JG up and yell at everyone and couldn’t believe the lack of care.

Southern middle Tennessee. A little town called Culleoka.

I know that place a little bit.

 

[Johncarter53]

Cant wait till next year when Wes Rucker tells us 5-7 is equivalent to a 7-3 covid year.

 

[Rishvol]

Last time we fired Fulmer it began the Clemson dynasty. Will that happen again when/if Fulmer gets canned again?

 

[Jimmy Football]

I will always be a Vol, and only a Vol...period. I will be right here waiting if/when this gets turned around.

If they do the unthinkable, I’ll be waiting as well, just not here. This place deserves better than an old curmudgeon yelling at clouds for a whole offseason.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

With a football man running the show you would think said sports program would be at least solid by now. Considering the others are all mostly in good shape. Perplexing to say the least. Fulmer must be content with just 1 more year in his position. He should go with Pruitt after next season.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Can we get a gif of Pruitt's face on Kurt Angle while walking out to his entrance, "You suck"

 

[InVOLuntary]

Merry Christmas to all and a healthy, happy 2021.

You too, LA. Hopefully 2021 will be as good as 2020 was bad. Hope you and yours have a great holiday season.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

We make it so easy to negative recruit against us. How can they possibly convince any top prospect to come to UT when they know they won’t be here past next year? Or better yet what motivation does Pruitt have to recruit top talent here? These bridges are burned. Time to cut ties even if it means an interim coach for next year.

 

[windrider]

How do you not get fired with those results?

Hey!!!! We are Tennessee, that's how.

 

[m1al]

So.. Dog, gun and horse show is over and we're back to reality.. We suck, our AD and boosters are spineless morons and the program is a punchline for a bad joke.

Have I missed anything?

 

[KokoBVol]

Investigation only way Pruitt not back.

 

[Deebowbear]

Also IMO, there is no way to keep Pruitt after next year. Unless you absolutely catch lightning in a bottle it won't happen. We play: Bama, UF, UGA, Ole Miss (yikes), UK, Mizzou, and Pitt. Try to explain how there isn't at least 5 losses here.[/QU

Our only hope is most of the staff bails

who cares now

My experience is that guns are sort of like golf clubs. Once you get going. you just wind up with a lot.
