Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[SergeantVol]

Found out how to parkerize firearms too. Got an old rifle I am going to try it on.

I've got an old lock I found on my property that I'd like to try that with. And a 1910 bolo knife/machete as well. How difficult was it?

You can use Oxalic Acid to absolutely eat rust. It is sold by name or sometimes as "wood bleach". I used to restore a lot of bikes and it is miracle for that purpose. Mix it in a tub, drop your part in and let it soak. The rust will turn a mustard yellow color and just flake right off.

This is one I have used: Oxalic Acid

I will mop the floor with this guy if I ever get a chance to. Barb’s chip dip tastes like doo doo as well by the way. Think I’d rather drink hot grease than eat that again.

I think we can put a picture with the name

For a Pruitt hugger, AP sure is suddenly sounding shakier. Couple of less definitive answers tonight.

Are the Vols looking to sign anyone on NSD?? Malone? Go back in on a former commit that didn’t sign??​

Depends on who is making the calls on roster

Surprised nothing is happening before the team meeting, but I get not making a decision of this magnitude when you can enjoy the holiday and a day off​

Maybe we get clarification one way or other tomorrow. I just had a few ppl point out holiday tomorrow as being a hurdle but honestly if he isn’t going to be your coach you can’t let them go to a team meeting. But then again I don’t think a lot of this stuff makes sense.

Might it happen? We will see when the chancellor gets her report but nothing happened Friday-Sunday and tomorrow is a holiday so...Tuesday at earliest imo.

Easy. Just need a plastic tub, some rebar, a car battery or battery charger, some wire, some washing powder (has to have sodium carbonate), and a piece of 2x4.

Believe this post just got you an FBI profile..... again.

Guys go into the portal and decide to stay. Team can take him back or not. I am sure LSU will follow your advice and refuse Gilbert. Stop knocking the kid for looking at options. Sure you stay in the same job and never look around. That is if you even have a job.

Gilbert is an elite talent. Pope is not. Theres the difference. Is it knocking him by saying he's not a huge asset to this team? No one on this board was just all up in arms of him leaving. Now he decided he wants to come back and he's the best blocking te in TN history. He very well may be a great kid and I've said nothing detrimental to him personally.

Also, no need to try to take personal shots at me. I'm completely happy with my job. No need to look around when I'm my own boss.

Also insinuated that even though the holiday is tomorrow that may not dissuade any news coming out. Especially with the team meeting tomorrow.

Does not know where he is. Do not want. Send back to Texas.

Edit: “for refund” removed .. too soon.

Maybe he stopped at the Pilot station in Farragut to tweet this?

Tomorrow we will all raise our glasses, look to the Big Gucci Sosa in the sky & say "He Gone."
Then, we will refill our cups and say, "He Come." as Hugh Freeze is announced. It will be a great day.

Also this, coupled with both Vince Ferrera and Jimmy Hyams saying in essence he is gone makes me think he might actually be gone tomorrow. This will be weird.

Hey, this thread has some before and after of oxalic acid doing its magic on bike parts. Also some tips on what not to use it on:

I don't see the big deal with the team meeting. Letting Beldar get up there and say a few aight's and talk about how we're gonna have a great offseason wouldn't even crack the top 10 biggest blunders by the AD this year. What does that matter? Idk.

Hyams is honestly big for me. That man won't go out on a limb for any kind of rumor. And he seemed super confident Pruitt is done today.

 

[orangesoda]

Freeze hired yet??? Time to right the ship!

You know Hyams is itching for brohm story redemption.

 

[434VOL]

AP opening the door he has had deadbolted up until now...intriguing

 

[Ten_Titans]

Lol. The one time he tried to break a story.

From what I can tell, Hyams and Pruitt are pretty cordial. He seems to give Hyams the time of day as much as any of the reporters, even over guys like AP who have to stick their head out of Pruitt's fly just to ask a question.

With that said, I just don't think Hyams goes with the "he gone" routine unless he was pretty damn confident.

Did Chief Vol 13 ever have to whoop some fools on the hill? Just curious.

I don’t think so, but Tennessee Stud is the new sheriff in town and he’s threatened to whoop a couple people. So tread lightly when he’s around.

 

[InstrumentalVol]

What did Hyams have to say? I missed it.

Direct transcript:

Host: "Signs in terms of Steel being hired, in terms of him traveling across the country to recruit his own team, he gets a transfer from Auburn, do those signs point to him being back?"
Hyams: "I dont. No, I think that Pruitt believes hes coming back, and hes working and coaching as if hes coming back. He also went to see Crouch before he saw HT, so he is working as though he is the coach and believes that he is gonna be there. But I dont necessarily think thats whats gonna happen. John, we did a show last Saturday and I got a call right after and this guy said youre wrong about Pruitt not being able to hire anyone, theyre going to be able to hire one coach, Steele, but they can't fill out anyone else. I said why? He said because he wants to build the bridge in case they end up firing Pruitt."

So 1 guy could be hired, but can't fill out his staff. Steele may be used to bridge the staff gap.

Wow. Sounds like more of a Fulmer hire than Pruitt if true.

What if it isn't and Pruitt knows he is getting fired so he hired Steele to be able to bring in someone he trusts to build the bridge with his guys? Pruitt is a bad HC and shouldn't be in the job but he clearly loves the kids he recruits.
