Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Atlanta VOL]

Wow just wow
so add lying about paying players on VN to your resume

and me thinks you don’t understand the definition of booster

Yes please make sure that is added to my CV.

Here is the issue.....not a single good coach that would make the fanbase happy will come work for Fulmer. All of the rumors about how he acts as the head coach still have not only gotten around but have been confirmed by the current staff and those things travel very fast. I am quite close with a few big name coaches that are no longer coaching and based on their opinion ...no well known coach will want to work for PF.

Hypothetical of course, but if Fulmer was gone, would a stoops or Meyer type hire be on the table?

 

[TheBigOne10]

Stop acting like the fans had anything to do with Shiano Sunday???

you are telling me the fans didn’t have anything to do with that?

I hope you aren’t suggesting that

GOOD! Thank God we the fans were the reason the Schiano hire was nixed. He’s a POS!!

 

[VOLSONLY]

Now that’s the spirit. Let’s take down the entire program where the dirt turns on the dirt.

I’m sure the say too much insider is going to tell us all about where all the skeletons are buried

 

[Vols2DaWall]

It’s more selfish than crazy. That’s what it has come to.

As a doc it's been incredible to see/hear some people and their stories. One guy was in his upper 70s, admitted because of COVID, sitting there talking to me, conversationally dyspneic, on 4L of oxygen tell me he doesn't believe in COVID.

Truly incredible. Another person told me he had people over for Thanksgiving. One of the guests knowingly tested positive the day prior but still decided to come

My reading experience has been so much better since putting Bruin on ignore.

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Given what we know about Pruitt and his arrogant, jerk personality, I'm surprised he hasn't told Fulmer where to go.

Directors quotes

"We hadn't intended it to be a Christmas movie, but the joy that came from it is what turned it in to a Christmas movie," he said. And he goes on to draw a connection between the terrorists in the film and current events in the United States.

The director is basic and wants to be trendy. Poo poo on him.

 

[MemphisVol3]

Ok I'm a nobody but I do have a job in Knoxville that has allowed me to interact with people in the administration, people on staff with the football team from GAs to some analysts, support staff etc. I have been told on multiple occasions Fulmer spends at least 80 percent of his time in the football complex that's an abnormal amount of time for an AD but then I start being told about he likes to interrupt coaches and put in his two cents during film study and coaching periods, been told people in adminstration that have voiced concerns about player and coaches behavior have been told by him, that Pruitt is his choice for HC and they just need to get over it, I didn't think it was true thought most of it this year was because of the pay cuts but it is starting to sound like allot of this is true. You really can't run a program as an AD if you constantly meddle and tell people to shove it.

Sounds like he still wants to be the Football Coach instead of an AD.

 

[BruinVol]

Yes please make sure that is added to my CV.

This is wild and insulting you trying to act like you all of a sudden aren’t a booster. It’s comical really

I mean Just a few hours ago you mocked me for not having “skin in the game”

i mean maybe you don’t understand what it means to be a booster but having “skin in the game” makes you a booster.

if you aren’t a booster then you are a fraud here. Much worse than a say too much insider

 

[Dudleys87]

Given what we know about Pruitt and his arrogant, jerk personality, I'm surprised he hasn't told Fulmer where to go.

He knows what hands to bite and which ones to protect. He’s stupid but not that stupid

 

[Atlanta VOL]

I would tell Boeing that if they want me, I need 600k a year, and if I'm a 5 star employee who brings tremendous growth to their company, then they would say, that's worth it and pony up and not watch me go to Tesla.

And what if I told you that Tesla was willing to give you a signing bonus regardless of where you decided to choose to go and that the day before signing Tesla reached back out and said hey we know what Boeing offered you and we are willing to go to 700k or match anything else Boeing throws your way. Oh and the whole time this is going on the Boeing stock value continues to drop. This is the type of thing we are up against.

Or both.. Best of both worlds..

Well that changes everything - what with our long history of hiring big name coaches the fan base loves.

 

[volamite86]

We gotta push Fulmer out. He helped win us a Natty but he's an awful AD. Gotta gooooo

The answer can’t continuously be to replace everyone. Going to have to learn at some point how to do jobs correctly.

 

[JMSqb11]

What if there is a real possibility 'Boeing' tanks your draft stock because they suck and developing your talent? Would that extra change now be worth potential millions in the future?

Boeing stock make go down but the USA Government will never let them go belly up. The fact Boeing dropped back below $220 once hitting $240 and not going hire is a godsend. Load the boat.

Me vs Pruitt and Fulmer, boxing weekend. Make it happen

 

[Geronimo]

Are your 5?

Then we are screwed. GA is always going to pay more than us, and because they have the talent, they will continue to win while we continue to flounder

So, basically, we’re fkd.

Great.

 

[aRmo]

@Atlanta VOL what time table are we looking at here?

So Mims took the Lambo over the Pinto, and we are going to be the ones to get in trouble.

Come on man. Not you too?

Where were all the Fulmer bashers when we were winning 10+, and SEC's? Then again when he was hired as AD?

All the man has done is give his all for Tennessee. I think we'll be fine.

 

[Headvol]

We'll get rid of Fulmer and hire Currie 2.0. Careful what you wish for. Fulmer is the only guy over there who cares about winning football imo. They'll be quick to bring someone in that cares more about the amenities in Neyland than the football being played.

Not to argue but we ain’t lighting the college football world on fire with Fulmer in charge
