Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[all_volz]

Popeyes = Chadwell.

Gus's Fried Chicken= Kiffin

 

[TheRain]

Think we have hired 3 different coaches just today

Wait until the second shift clocks in.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Price says he’s heard possible interview with Elliott tomorrow

Welp, got my hopes up for Campbell. It’s gonna be Elliot. Hope he turns out to be good. Didn’t think we would take this big of a risk but oh well

At lease he has enthusiasm unless our previous coach.

What a doofus....

 

[JCVol00]

Im gonna take me a nap, if I get back on and am 50 pages behind we fightin

I hate you guys

 

[Sleegro]

I’m good with Fleck. But only if Campbell says no

No.

-Matt Campbell

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Hank is worse than Kingston when it comes to coaches

Let’s not get crazy

 

[VolInNorthCack]

Sexton doesn’t represent Fleck or Dykes.

That's what he's saying.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Fleck is a "B" hire for me. Everyone not named Kiffin or Campbell that's been mentioned is below that. If we've hired a $2mil AD and that's the best he can do I'll have doubts of whether he's worth the money.

Bruh what?

 

[vols 30]

Elliot is the obvious choice. I just hope he doesn't settle for a bunch of 3 stars like cornbread

 

[nashvol1]

Anybody else notice how untalented MN was this year in year 4? Record?

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

This.

Throw everything you got at Campbell. If he’s still out, lock up one of the best young coaches in the game who has proven to also be a builder. And a winner.

I’d be all in

 

[AllVolinGA]

All I'm gonna add to the slogan conversation is "The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win....etc." Seemed to work very well here for many years.( I know there are 6others as well)

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Not good for tonight.

 

[Girth Brooks]

If the Vol Navy goes from this:



To this:



I’m kicking puppies!

 

[VFLPastor]

All the "knowers" need to share something here. The rest of us are about to start making decisions that will have repercussions.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Would be par for the course and most of those people still have hope that Pruitt will become a good head coach and wanna drink a bear with him.... so is that really what you’re worried about???

This can go for anyone on this board....

Make an argument against Fleck to me without bringing up “row the boat” point to something on the field or in his resume or past that should be a concern or red flag. That’s your answer.

Look I’d support Fleck and be hopeful but he’s a tier under what our insiders have acted like. His team this year wasn’t even good. He had one good season at Minnesota. He made them better but we are basing all this off one year? It’s the same w it j Chadwell. He’s had one good year at coastal. Matt Campbell has consistently beaten top 25 teams with worse talent than Minnesota.

 

[Weezer]

So far, the two names I don't think I could deal with are Dykes and Healy. White has to do better than either of those two IMO. If we can't score someone with HC experience, I could live with Elliott. I would love to get Campbell, but I could live with Fleck or Fickell. With the right staff, I would even give Chadwell a shot, but he'd be far down my list. I can understand why we don't chase Kiffin or Freeze. People need to stop being unreasonable. We may not get our first choice. White may be an incredible AD, but UT is still seen as toxic by many coaches. It's gonna take time to rehabilitate that image. Fans refusing to deal with reality doesn't help. If you're out, then by all means, go.

 

[BigSteve09]

Who said we are paying 7 million a year

I was thinking the same thing

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I’m aware it has more to do with his son that passed away.

It’s nothing personal against the guy.

I’m just saying, the majority of the fan base would get tired of his gimmicks after a while. Especially if he starts losing.

Actually, the majority and the casual fans will love it just like they did Butch’s. The loud minority on message boards and Twitter might not, but those never accurately represent the majority.

 

[drylo]

If it’s Dykes, double yikes

 

[goooooovols]

An

Elliot is the obvious choice. I just hope he doesn't settle for a bunch of 3 stars like cornbread

Elliot hire sucks IMO, can’t believe we aren’t capable of better

 

[Sleegro]

Dog of course Matt Campbell is better.

You all have to get out of this zero sum mindset.

“If he doesn’t pick MY coach then he’s an idiot!”

Nope, plenty of guys can win big here. He won 11 games at Minnesota!

Kingston with the facts machine.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Row the ****ing boat baby.

Dykes would be terrible though. First name that I honesty think would be a disaster
