Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[pierce60]

Butch recruits too.

But without Pruitt neither get drafted. There's a pretty good chance Jennings never plays football again without Pruitt.

How do you know it's not the other way around? Maybe @LA Vol hijacked @InVOLuntary and he's being held captive in some dungeon? Chained to the wall only being taken care of by a harem of scantily clad beautiful women. Ever consider that as a possibility?

I actually had that as my 1B scenario word for word, but @LA Vol never posts gifs. So my plan worked, and you’ve been outed.

Anyone think Fulmer brings this guy in to coach the secondary for Marrone next season?

Defensive Coordinator

Good lord can we stop speculating that Phil is going to pick/hire the next HCs staff.. The thought is horrifying....

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I don’t care if someone is a good hire or not. I think he’s one of the coaches that would at least have us out of the cellar and quite honestly that’s all I’m worried about right now. I’m not even thinking past that.

yeah. you pair Marrone with Steele and Garner and then bring in a dynamic OC, we may have something there. Now, if you keep Chaney, then we're screwed.

 

[Dudleys87]

How bad would it suck to be demoted and still have to be on staff.

 

[Kingston Vol]

It had been reported that Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt did not have the authority from UT to hire an assistant considering UT is undergoing an internal investigation from its compliance office for potential NCAA recruiting violations.

While sources said UT approved the hiring of Steele, it is not known if Pruitt has the clearance to hire an offensive line coach after Will Friend left in late December.

Also, Steele would be retained even if UT and Pruitt part ways, sources said.

[Wickman]

That’s the assumption yes

It is under the 104.5 the Zone app. Under Blaine and Mickey podcast

 

[InVOLuntary]

Honestly, would he have to be chained? Come on now......

Who's to say he didn't asked to be chained?

 

[Geronimo]

Nothing i can share.

Outlook...overcast, chance of storms and damaging winds.

Not a fan of the descriptor “damaging”.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Didn’t Hubbs just say last night we weren’t going after anymore transfers?

No. That was a typo. He meant to say we likely weren't signing anymore high schoolers. We're only going to take transfers to finish the class. he clarified it later

 

[SpringBokVol]

104.5 saying that John Brice said that Pruitt is the leak for Steele being hired.

Wish I heard Brice on air

Chess not checkers

 

[SLICKYINC]

Ok, on to OL coach now.

@InVOLuntary trained me how to post gifs under excruciating torture.

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

This guy was on Marrone's staff in Jacksonville. Has extensive collegiate experience coordinating pass oriented offenses.

[Jack Burton]

I don't think CJP would hire is own replacement. Bassilio says stuff he reads on here and twitter. Him, Finebaum, and most of the sports media are just echoing what fans are saying and things that will make them listen.

I don’t think CJP has the ultimate say.

 

[VOLSONLY]

Hadn't seen that, thanks



I actually feel pity for South Carolina. They are just a total tear-down of a program right now. I think they and Vandy are the only two programs in the SEC I can comfortably say we are in better shape than, even if we keep Pruitt.

Yea I kinda feel the same, maybe because we’re close to being right there with them

 

[Geronimo]

Fake post! Too many clothes to qualify as “scantily clad”!

Jimmy's blog: UT hires Steele on defensive staff

Also, Steele would be retained even if UT and Pruitt part ways, sources said. - I find this direct quote from Jimmy Hyams, quite telling in relation to Pruitt and the current uncertainty in general surrounding Tennessee Football at the moment.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Probably Auburn. He'll follow Bobo.

Imagine following Mike Bobo

 

[rikberry31]

I can go into depth, our offensive line who had as many 4 5 stars starting on the O line got pushed around like a JV squad, our DBs got consistently beat on inside slants and couldn’t get off the field on 3rd down, pass rush was non-existent, our LBs were lost in coverage on a consistent basis, QB play don’t get me started, WRs were hot and cold no real new development there and TEs caught maybe 10 balls all year. There’s your details for ya.

Our oline did not get pushed around in fact they were often dominating the line of scrimage against good teams. The problems the oline did have were mostly assignment errors not getting pushed around.
It was the LB's getting caught on receivers over the middle not the DB's. This was primarily due to lack of pass rush, I'll grant you that one, with out blitzing. The LB's caught in mismatches on receivers, that does not usually go well, ask Ohio State when Smith blew past that LB for a TD last night
JG was catastophically bad. We had several promising young receivers see the field, in particular Hyatt. Wideman, and Keyton.

Freeze
Campbell
Fickell
Herman

Those coaches are the only way we’re going to get out of this mess.

We need to stop going after losers.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

We're not serious about football.

We have spent more money on assistant coaches and other football related items than nearly every team in the country in the last 3 years. We are serious, we just don't know what the crap we're doing.

Our OL was destroyed against Georgia
