Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Batman1948]

Yes---- look, I know the hesitation with Freeze and Kiffin.... but seriously--- these guys have proven coaching records and have both been successful navigating the SEC, they know it, breath it, and flourish in it. The main thing with me on these two are the fact that they aren't scared to be innovative and creative (would let staff do their jobs and not micromanage) and most importantly in this conference--- THEY CAN RECRUIT LIKE STUDS.

Kiffin's college record is 69-37 and 3-2 in bowl games. I believe the fan base would run him off if he had that record at Tennessee but his offense would be fun to watch.

I guess if you count ties to White's brother as a tie to White himself, then I guess so.

i'm sure the brothers have talked.

At this point I'm going to be very disappointed if we don't get Lane.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Does our team / his teammates even want a guy back who left just because?

Think he will have to earn their respect back.

 

[mrmax86]

If Lane called White today, it is also possible he called UT a different day as well. Both can be true.

I love to see this from the players, it looks like we got some boys about ready to step up.
This is probably the first time in this decade, I actually believe we are going to turn the corner.
Bring me a good hire and lets ride.

Do you mind changing your avi. Can't stand seeing the Gump every time you post. Thanks.

Campbell

i, too, get the feeling that's probably right .... not sure what to do with that though...lol.

I wasn't, just stating he worked for his brother. It's not a big leap to assume they know each other through.

If we ignored Lane Kiffin's phone calls to hire any of those people I'm gonna get real negative on Twitter very quickly.

Typical Tennessee poster. If I can have my way then it negative. Think White knows signicantly more than an anonymous poster.

Most of them were not teenagers yet when he left. They were too busy playing their Gameboy DS and drinking Orange Mountain Dew.

Ate lunch with my Ole Miss family today that work at the university and they wish they had hired Mr White as their AD few years back.
All said great personality and expect him to do great at UT. Apparently he served there before Buffalo/UCF.

 

[WarMachine]

Kiffin worked for White's brother, right?

Yes at FAU

Lost a bet, cant until Feb 19.

 

[m1al]

I wouldn't say that, I would say he's pushing the right buttons with the right people

Where is it coming from that Kiffin called White?

It's a joke Francis.

Perhaps Lane was returning his call. Yes Danny boy, I would love to come sing rocky top all night long after we beat FL

I don't know if Kiffin called White but I know Kiffin has been in touch with and has the blessing of 2 major power players.

 

[mrmax86]

Yes at the FAU

FIFY

I think he was an associate AD there during the Freeze tenure.

I've got a few. Was JG. Sometimes Brian Maurer. They usually don't send anything back but that's alright.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I was just looking. Middleton follows Josh Heupel on twitter.

 

[Paper_Towel]

Looks like we have a few Stephen King fans...

We absolutely do not need fans that are going to Twitter or volnation attack this upcoming hire.
