Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[volfan1631]

I have heard that for 13 years now....hasn't worked yet.

So your saying we had the right coach?

 

[KB5252]

Somehow I feel that everything will work out. Don't know why but I just think we're gonna get through this fellas

Yes at the same state of affairs for the next decade plus. This admin might have just pushed me off the fan ledge. Much like this program I'm hanging by a thread.

 

[Orange Studs]

Yep. All those guys were Nieds recruits. They weren’t going to be eligible next year at UT.

So what Nieds has done makes them ineligible for next year?

[volatil]

Freak responding to BGS I. DONT. KNOW. was one of the funniest things I’ve read on here

 

[OrangenSC]

I love it.

a fat DEUCES to the players jumping ship Bc a very bad head coach got fired.

I never **** on the kids but seriously,
Grow up.

Can we at least wait until they actually leave before we trash our players. Right now they're still Vols.

 

[jpope9]

Bailey ,Lawrence, Keyton some others looking maybe

Didn’t Keyton transfer out last year?

 

[Power T-Rev]

tony, you have a job bc people give a shot about ut football. you can thank phillip for that. self promoting jack wagon

That's an interesting take

 

[Voltrapnbama]

@Atlanta VOL

Are the departures of players a purge of those indirectly or directly related to infractions? Or are they just jumping ship?

This is my thoughts as well.

 

[Power T-Rev]

Darel needs to get off twitter. Time to cool down

 

[Weezer]

Hard to find optimism when our OL is hemorrhaging players. Bailey, Salter, does it really matter who the QB is when they'll have no protection? Both our LT prospects are gone.

I mean, I guess I understand some are trying to "look on the bright side", but I don't see a bright side. This sucks all the way around.

And, jmo, but I'm ready to just go ahead and dump Boyd and Plowman as well. This investigation was bungled from the jump. From being leaked to taking way too long to reach the conclusion it has, the mismanagement has absolutely contributed to the death of the program.

I keep alternating between being pissed off and extremely depressed that our program has been effectively killed.

 

[BruinVol]

No

 

[Volsfaninva917]

If they got cash payments and UT turns them in with proof then yes, it does

 

[Jackcrevol]

Well it’s been trying to recover “the right way” for 15 years and failed!
I’m ready to try a different approach! Plowman , let’s do this

wait. i thought Plowman was doing it the right way?

 

[Ron Swanson]

So what Nieds has done makes them ineligible for next year?

I think it can, yes. Which is why Gray sat out last game of the year.

 

[SimplemanTN]

Yes

Do you think the head coach search is done?

 

[jpope9]

No

I was being sarcastic since he basically quit

 

[Vols4us]

Yeah, OK. Some of your brothers help take the program down and off you go.

 

[VFLBerg]

Didn’t Keyton transfer out last year?

He's still listed on the roster.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I mag be alone here but if this purge gets us back to a team that plays good, consistent, even competitive football, then so be it.

 

[kemotoe]

This just shows that the “recruiting” done by Pruitt and co. was just guns for hire. A lot of these high profile players we signed jumped ship the minute their “motivation” dried up. They could care less about UT, the tradition, or playing for the orange.

I’m more pissed off at the basketball team because it gives us another reason to be upset.

Why can’t our program have nice things?

 

[Jackcrevol]

Yeah, OK. Some of your brothers help take the program down and off you go.

if it isnt goodbye then what is it?

 

[Catbone]

I think she's very smart. A master manipulator.

I'll rephrase that.. I don't think that you think she's doing a good job

 

[KB5252]

Yep. All those guys were Nieds recruits. They weren’t going to be eligible next year at UT.

That sucks, I hate it for them and us.
