Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Serious question: why isn’t mark stoops a candidate?

Probably for the same reason Mark Richt isn’t.

Edit: I read BOB....

McGhee Tyson -> Birmingham-Shuttlesworth -> University-Oxford -> McGhee Tyson

Endorse

 

[Catbone]

If you know you know

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

lol Basilio just said that Pruitt had a ledger indicating who got what and where. Great job coach.

If that’s true these coaches have got to get smarter...... you know how easy it is to have double encryption...... encrypted key fobs etc.....

 

[Sugaray13]

About 6 hours behind. Has Gruden been hired yet?

tomorrow... seems to be the word of the decade

 

[VolInNorthCack]

Probably for the same reason Mark Richt isn’t.

That's what I was thinking too. No Marks.

Serious question: why isn’t mark stoops a candidate?

Well for starters he just hit UT fans with the "I'm not surprised" Nate Diaz meme just today.

 

[rjd970]

This feels different to me. It isn’t rushed, disheveled, and chaotic. It all seems thought out and deliberate.

Don’t know if it will translate into results, but it gives me reason for optimism.

 

[Batman1948]

We are in bad shape. Are we thinking current players potentially ineligible?

Absolutely, everyone of the players who took money will face some form of punishment from the NCAA but the severity will depend on the violation itself

 

[I4Jay]

I don't believe we are currently bumbling around in the president's and chancellor's office. In the past? Sure.

That speech yesterday praising fulmer, the. Current hiring freeze yet we’re still hiring... it’s the same old car with a new paint job

 

[SLICKYINC]

That's what I was thinking too. No Marks.

Lol, I edited it. But that’s pretty good too.

 

[Weezer]

If Steele is the hire, you might as well throw dirt on the grave of Tennessee football.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

Serious question: why isn’t mark stoops a candidate?

He quite obviously can't produce a decent qb.......

 

[pismonque]

You do realize that post was provided by another poster a few post back right ?

Yeah, it was me. But I was presenting it informationally, not as a vehicle for assholery.

Now I got Bruin stank on me, dammit.

Oh I'm out if it's steele.

 

[engineerVOL]

OT: Guess ill have to retire cardboard Beldar...

But first...View attachment 340896

Please stand this up outside your local McDonald’s and take a pic of Ronald McBeldar holding a happy meal box.

 

[volbeast33]

That’s one he’s gonna wish he had back

Back in the day.... I use to be around some of Phil’s friends..... they are going to have so much fun with that.

 

[volinbama256]

But more media were saying he was gone than staying, and there were plenty of signs and concern about Fulmer from media wasnt there.

Many who got excited for the firing are going to hate the hire because they've pumped themselves up for filet mignon but will be served cube steak.

Over the past 2-3 hires I would certainly agree with you here, but the optics on this one are completely different... our Admin is reading, seeing, and knows what is going on with fans and the media right now. It's been made mention from several reliable people that we cannot hire another project and won't. I choose the believe that and chose to believe Pruitt was getting fired. Honestly didn't see the Fulmer thing coming. Bringing in a new AD just to hire Steele or a Meh is not in the cards this time.

Any coach that comes in and has HC experience, is ready to recruit, hires an experienced staff and lets them do their job, tries to get along with the AD and Admin, and is open to suggestions and ways to improve and grow the program, is gonna always be better than what we just got rid of.

JP was in over his head, was a bully and hard to work with, acted like he was Saban without the resume, micro-managed his staff, was a hot head and fired people off the cuff, hired his buddies and not what was best for the team or program, refused to follow through with all his coaching duties and let Fulmer handle them and coddle him... Regressed our team, players, and our Defense in year 3, poorly developing talent along the way.

Based on this, I choose to believe this team and program will be in a better place moving forward once we clear the infractions. Will we get a Filet? Maybe, maybe not, but we will certainly get better than the 'Ole Roy we've been getting served for the past 3yrs...

Ah, screw it, just let Steele be the guy - get this mess over with.

Let him hire a new OC or let Chaney do his thing 100% on his own.

Hire a DC you like or keep ansley and roll.

Manage the coaches.

 

[Vol4ever]

Yep we are doomed. The fact none of @MetalVolunteer @Atlanta VOL @LA Vol can put it to rest tells us all we need to know. It’s Kevin Steele and I’m absolutely done with this University.

If its Steele I will support him. Rather have Mahlzan, Herman, or Napier. If Steele gets good staff then he would do ok.

As long as we keep Beckwith and start him next year, i don't care who leaves the RB room.

No, he wouldn't do okay.

 

[yourstruly23]

Damn Bruin digging up stuff from 2 year old player threads on ATL Vol. Good gosh let it go man

I don't mind his pessimistic attitude most of the time, but at this point he's obsessed... gonna run off one of the few people that are actually in the know..

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Only Tennessee would hire a head coach that turned in a 1-31 conference record in his only previous HC job.
