Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Dudleys87]

EVERYBODY cheats. Do you guys really not understand that? If Pruitt didn't have so many haters this would have never come to light. This penny ante bull**** would have gotten squashed in Alabama and Georgia. Our people SUCK.

I never once said everyone didn’t cheat. What I said was is if it goes on inside his program he can’t say he didn’t know.

I’m all for bending the rules. I’m tired of Tennessee starting behind the 8 ball. Which is why I said from the beginning id hire freeze and if the ncaa wanted to watch us I’d give them rooms in the dorms.

I just know many people think now we should have let Kippy be the interim and I see this as a worse situation. The only thing better is our roster and I think Steele is the best shot at keeping that

Steele is on staff.. whether it's an interim roll, or a future DC, does not matter. you're JP disciples on defense are going to leave either way.. Steele will be able to keep the majority here and hopefully hang on to some of the guys rumored to leave w/ JP.. offensively, you may lose one or two, but i'd venture to say that most would be excited to play for a head coach that is going to do better than average a little over 20 ppg... hopefully things work out... i'll keep my fingers crossed, but certainly not going to hold my breath

You seriously want to claim usc has rebounded?


Where do they fit in the National landscape now?

How’s their recruiting now ?

how’s Their draft classes now ?

Enjoy your day buddy. They just went 5-1. For you to act like USC is scraping the bottom of college football is laughable. I guess you missed them having back to back double digit win seasons a few years ago and a top 5 pick in QB Sam darnold. This past draft they had a tackle go in the 1st and Pittman in the 2nd.

If you’re waiting on them to replicate the success they had with carrol, one of the best coaches in FOOTBALL history, idk what to tell you. Like i said. Go get lunch and start over.

Sarkisian was an analyst for them at one point.

He was an analyst there because he had substance abuse issues. Not quite the same at all. He wasn’t there because it was all they thought he was good enough for. Saban was taking advantage of an extra HC who fell in his lap.

To make it easier for them to give us sanctions?

 

[m1al]

Don’t worry Bruin I’m sure you will get your wish for mediocrity.

His most fervent wish is to simply.... argue.

 

[HankHill]

Lol

USC went 5-7 and 8-5 in their last two full seasons

but yea one @HankHill wants to tell us they have recovered nicely from sanctions

pure comedy

You’re a simpleton. You don’t understand what you’re watching. Have a good day.

[Bassmaster_Vol]

So, if you have to pick one of Marrone, Pruitt or Steele, as our next coach, not as interim.

Who do you take?

I pick Chadwell, LOL.

One of those three? Pruitt

 

[butchna]

I can only hope Tennessee pulls through this time. We desperately need a pass rush and it’s no secret he can bring the talent

If Pruitt returns, I expect him to be more hands-off than we’ve ever seen from him. Hope for Nolen isn’t lost in the next class...had pretty much written it off.

In the PAC 12 lol

you are really wrong on this one.

Start talking about marrone please where I can agree with you on it because this one you are dead ass wrong. USC is an ordinary pac 12 program right now. They can’t even recruit anymore

What time is the players meeting supposed to happen today?
I can't imagine the UT Admin would allow Pruitt to lead this meeting today if they even think it's still possible he could be fired this week.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

I'm highly skeptical that this random poster knows anything at all and even more skeptical that CJP is getting fired today. However, if it does happen to be true then there is almost no way we are gonna Texas this thing. If the UT admin didn't even know whether they were gonna fire him til last night when they got the report, then they don't have anyone lined up to step right in. Gonna either be a long coaching search or Steele is gonna be interim.

 

[Tri-CitiesVol]

Off topic comment here.

Built an electrolysis tank for this rifle I’m restoring. It’s a MAS 36 Santa Fe Sporter. It was really rusty. Never fooled with an E tank before. That stuff has to be witch craft or some sort of gypsy magic. The rust just fell right off and boom, rifle looked like new.

Lemme send you my great grandfathers old shotgun that we want to restore for my dad.

 

[butchna]

Guys, this is big

twss

Yeah and was promoted in like less than a year to OC for the biggest game of the year after Saban fired Kiffin on the tarmac lol.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

So, we went from “He’s fired. Announcement today!” To “It’s always been tomorrow.”

Got it. So this is just like each day for the past 2 months.

 

[volsfan_17]

We're all continuing to 'tune in' to see what UT does. Hoping that today's the day, even though we're terrified of what they'll do tomorrow.

December of 2022.............. Soon

 

[99vawl]

That's OK. I've got this new guy who's about to tell me about UT's "recruiting office." Apparently, we're about to fire all of them for cause, which could wipe out everybody.

@LA Vol I am sorry if I used wrong lingo. I was just told that Gunn and Stiff are in the thick of it. I guess I assumed that their staff would be too. I appreciate what you bring to the board and know you catch a lot of heat. Now I’m doing the same! Sorry if I ruffled feathers

 

[Dudleys87]

If it came to that then so be it. The chances of him staying clean are much higher than finding the “right model for the program”

 

[SergeantVol]

What kind of shape is it in? Got pics? I have some tips and tricks for older stocks without poly coating.

 

[JCVol00]

It’s over...........




















...Anakin, I have the high ground

 

[Ten_Titans]

Ironically enough, TB walking back the Pruitt fired talk a tad more today.

Has moved from "Pruitt is definitely fired" to "The admin is stupid if they don't fire Pruitt".
