Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[NMVol]

Why exactly are y'all worried about this?

As a lions fan I’m happy for Stafford to get a better opportunity to win a championship. He deserves better.

Gawd Swanson you are both a Lions & Vols fan ? How do you stay so positive? Lol bless your heart

So plowman is whites boss and only makes $600k a year.

That must feel strange

$600 K is a lot of money for academia and that's her specialty. Every football coach at major universities make more than their boss. Almost every professional basketball player makes more than their coach. It's just the reality of the sports world. It's wrong but it is what it is.

Orange koolaid

I've been having orange koolaid for years but someone keeps putting lemon in and it becomes sour

 

[m1al]

I bet the people who have been contacted know that they've been contacted.

Alien contactees don't always remember being contacted by aliens...........

I’m just saying it can be at 99% gentleman agreement and everyone thinks it’s done then something happen (like a leak to the press) and it blows up. I believe if it was at (signatures on a piece of paper including the Chancellor) and it is legally iron clad, then there is no reason to keep it a secret. Basically It ain’t done till the new coach is in front of a podium in Knoxville.

Yeah, you know, kinda like Gruden ...

I’m leaning towards a subpar hire. There would be more smoke and optimism if otherwise.

I don’t think subpar is the right word. Just not the sizzle we all expect.

 

[VOLSONLY]

Media flailing. We are literally watching in real time as speculation on this board is turned into tweets and AtoZ sports clickbait.

Nothing from the insiders. AV has gone quiet on @ob79. AV seems to have indicated that this has been in the works longer than they've been letting on and he's over the moon or some such. Our administration is running a tight ship.

I choose to believe that we have our guy. We've had our guy. Only a few folks know who it is, and they've all signed NDAs.

I'd put money down that the name is gonna leak tomorrow so it's scrawling across sports news all day during the NFL playoff games.

Big name. Maximum effect.

Agree,
I’d say we’ll see AV right before the announcement, he knows if he comes in now he’ll be bombarded with questions that he cannot answer right now. But I think it’s SOON

It’s quite the challenge.

From 2017 search that led us to Pru Pru.

Supposedly we backed off bc of a $9M buyout.

Vols back off Matt Campbell, expected to pursue Dan Mullen, per report

Now we paid $2.5M buyout for an AD. My my, things have changed.

Bring. Us. Campbell.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Man, if he goes to the damn Colts I’ll be pissed.

Dude is a baller with tread left on a legit team he could be playing for rings.

How are you drawing that conclusion? When nobody knows who is on the list, and there's no way there can be a leak, how exactly can there be smoke and enthusiasm?

 

[engineerVOL]

No Popeyes. Has to be Chic Fil A.

Don’t know why this made me think Thic Fil A

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Fickell with Herman for OC... would be fun

I'm just hoping its not another coordinator.

Big azz couch

It was found in Chaney’s couch

I read something about "the ledger" that was kept at Auburn by a certain booster. When Little Bowden took the job at Auburn, he was "allegedly" brought up to speed right off the bat about the ledger.

 

[m1al]

This just sucks... they’re supposed to be working at warp speed yet nobody knows who the candidates are. It’s going to end up being a mediocre hire.

I'm thrilled they're playing it this close to the vest and nobody know sh!t.. That's the way it should be..

Also, it's going to be ok, stop worrying...

 

[ETennGal]

Gus’s??

 

[Vol4ever]

@Atlanta VOL definitely has info. Idk why y’all still doubt him.

Maybe he dont now with White as the AD. Id say White is not sharing with anyone but plowman and Boyd.
