Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Ten_Titans]

In the same, the hiring freeze obviously meant he was being fired. In reality, that wasnt true either.

Since then a coach has been hired and Pruitt was interviewed again this time by outside investigators. The day after he boards a plane to Cal to re recruit a current player.

I dont know that there has been a decision made, but at worse Pruitt and those controlling his fate havent gotten bad enough news to ground him yet. Doesnt make sense why UT would want him doing that on their dime if they are fixing to fire him and possibly for cause. I said it earlier, but had Steele and Simon made the trip without Pruitt and Ansley it would look a lot different.

I don't know.

UT is so incompetent that it is at least possible Pruitt had the trip pre scheduled, the report is damming but the Chancellor hadn't looked at it yet or gone over it thoroughly, and no one had the forethought to tell Pruitt to stay put while the investigation is officially completed.

That should never happen but I wouldn't put it past them.

The plan is coming together. Fly Pruitt to California and then fire him on the tarmac and leave him there. Bold move Boyd and Plowman. Bold move indeed.

This is perfect. We can fly Kiffin to the same tarmac and hire him on the spot.

Nothing says closing the gap like taking almost your entire staff out to rerecruit a player that signed 2 years ago.

I got it!! This is Rogue Currie reincarnated. Currie flew to the West coast without permission to interview Leach and Pruitt is following in his footsteps.

They just got done yesterday, give it time

 

[Weezer]

you were the only one? lol.

I'm just extremely angry that, as a fan, I'm helpless to do anything as I watch our so-called "leaders" implode the program through sheer incompetence. It's breaking my heart.

 

[MarcoVol]

We shouldn’t give anyone grief.... each individual should decide who they want to believe.

I mean after the fact. After it’s clear they’ve been lied to/deceived/misled.

 

[drvenner]

Every recruit he saves gives him an extra 100k in his buyout?

You even put your picture on the bottom. Lol this ain't gonna earn you money guy.

 

[Stoked]

Guy on VQ (ChadwellQuest) saying this guy is transferring back closer to home (KY) and that we’ve reached out to him. Thinks we could be a player. FWIW

He went to my alma mater and lives in my hometown he’s going to UK where he was originally gonna go before he switched to Nebraska. It’s going suck seeing him go against us. Our whole town has been rooting for him he’s the best player to probably ever come out of our small town.

@LA Vol

If Fulmer didn't give Pruitt an extension earlier last year is he the HC right now?

This is the sole reason he didn't get fired for going 3-7. Giving the extension completely took that off the table.

 

[drvenner]

We're going to win between 7 and 9 next year with Pruitt

7-9 quarters maybe. The other 40 or so quarters, we will lose.

He went to see Crouch last week.

Hot take incoming:

Supremely talented player and A+ character kid, but HT doesn’t have that mental edge. This is, what, the second or third time we’ve had to beg him to come back to campus.

 

[Geronimo]

Did someone spike my coffee? Though if scantily clad women are involved, perhaps that's not a bad thing.

Edit: I need to work on my word usage and spelling (we’re, their)
@InVOLuntary stole your identity (I.e. your avi) and we (I) jumped to the believable conclusion you were kidnapped and held captive. He spewed some nonsense about it was really you holding him captive and yadyada. The tell was he posted a gif. Very uncharacteristic of your posting style. Essentially, this is a crap shoot, I’m motion sick from the roller coaster, and I needed a juvenile distraction to maintain my sanity.
Glad you’re back!

He’s been begged back to campus before ?

When ?

Blake Toppmeyer: "I've been driving around with my laptop just to make sure I don't miss anything. My boss probably wouldn't like that because it could get stolen."

Tony B to Blake Toppmeyer: "If somebody ever saw what was on your laptop we'd have to start calling you Niedermeyer instead of Toppmeyer".

Thought that was pretty funny lol.

 

[Geronimo]

Conspiracy alert:
Pruitt flies to CA so we can fly in our next coach for interview and tour of facilities.
Anyone that disagrees is blocked!

 

[VOLSONLY]

How we doing guys?

We starting to figure out the “poster from TOS” stuff ain’t real or

Mister Freak really needs to add a dislike button.

Unfortunately, this is the state of college football today. Transfer Portal has changed everything.

How are we going to recruit good players by playing by the rules ... With THIS staff

I'm worried just as much about the development.

It’s not even like he is a 1st round LB. he’s a very good player but it’s not like we’re doing this with chase young.

IKR, how are we going to get any goons? Nolan aint coming here for free when Bama will give him a car and Kirby gonna buy his parents a house. But man we cant even have a paintball game.
