Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Rik, stop trying to act like a badass

Just waiting on a sane explanation.

 

[Dudleys87]

Did he interview? No. No major program is touching Freeze with a ten foot pole. Now tell me that crazy narrative that he turned down AU and USCjr because he was waiting on Tennessee, please.

They told you that? Your more of an insider than most people here.

We’re going to fire cornbread and hire bologna.

So every interview is public knowledge except for Freeze? You don’t have to be told anything, it obvious to anyone living in an alternate reality. Freeze ain’t getting any calls.

Pruitt trying to hire Steele doesn't sound like a guy negotiating his buyout.

Friday Through Sunday ARE THE DAYS TO WATCH:

Tennessee is scheduled to interview Jeremy Pruitt on Thursday ... From there the way this probably plays out is that Tennessee is more than likely to part ways with Pruitt within 24-36 hours of this interview. Our best guess here is that it's done on Friday or Saturday ... Again this is only a guess. Because we're dealing with Tennessee here ... And at Tennessee anything is possible.

I figured it would be Friday or over the weekend. Got the NFL playoffs going on so firing CJP would not be as high profile. Plus students return the 20th, so they have got to do it before then. Then they'll appoint Steele or Ansley as interim while they conduct the search.

Love that Matthew Butler is coming back. Under rated big boost to the DL.

Hoping Middleton does the same.

Indifferent on Aubrey Solomon. He’s been invisible since he got here.

Wish we would fire our DL coach

 

[HankHill]

It’s crazy how many coaches have already been fired that are better than our current coach who has done just about everything under the sun to get fired.

 

[VOL6479]

I don't see how he could return after all this. If he was winning I could understand people trying to keep him.

I don't want Tony near the program

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Just waiting on a sane explanation.

Do you have proof that Freeze didn't interview at either one of those stops?

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

Some free advice. Until this investigation is wrapped up and Tennessee has made a public statement, I would be cautious on reading too much into to any information AP or Hubbs puts out.

I think this week will provide resolve one way or the other and we can all move on

 

[SLICKYINC]

Tomorrow, gents.

I can’t say whether or not either school was interested in him, but after what he did at Liberty, you don’t think any program at all reached out to him? Just because he didn’t interview anywhere, that we know of, doesn’t mean colleges weren’t blowing up his phone. He’s said it himself, he’s waiting on the job offer that makes his heart flutter.

They are idiots just like us!!

His employer is the University of Tennessee… Enough said.

You are clearly in the wrong venue for that.

I'm sure there are people calling him but none of the open spots in the SEC are willing to take a chance on him.

 

[rekinhavoc]

No Jeremy it is not too soon to reach out to Nick for a job. He had all night to celebrate. Go for it.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I guess we’ll see when this mess ends.

 

[rikberry31]

If he had it would have made news and we would know about it. Besides if he was interviewed and they passed over him for who they hired, that would also be very telling.

 

[rekinhavoc]

Pruitt trying to hire Steele doesn't sound like a guy negotiating his buyout.

I think it is them helping out an alum and getting a free coach to boot.

 

[appyvol]

At this point either keep him or fire him, but just make a decision. Stop being inept, make a plan and move forward.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Still trying to figure out what train you're on.

Sorry...I have said several times..I would rather keep rolling the dice on really good mid-tier coaches that have built solid programs than boring, lifeless, garbage to mediocre NFL or CFB fired rejects.

I wouldn't mind Freeze so much with a good defensive staff, but I don't think he is the sure fire program savior a lot of other folks seem to.
