Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[SLICKYINC]

Lol. He's here to get football back.

That’s his main priority, I agree. But this situation will only allow him to do so much in this short timeframe.

 

[VolGee4]

So you pay $2mil for an AD that hires a coach that a $1mil AD can make?

Lol. I guess if you just want to theorize, go right ahead.

 

[InVOLuntary]

The AD does much more than hire and fire coaches.
It’s pretty clear we needed more then just that

Lots of ADs can do the other stuff related to managing the athletic programs for much less money.

Coordinator list but still some intriguing names

Vols search for a head coach: Offensive coordinator candidate options

 

[BruinVol]

If we keep bringing in bargain bin coaches, experiments type hires it will never end. We could have paid $10/year for a coach with all the buyouts we've paid. I've said all along we're going to have to spend our way out of this. One way to get out of this mess and that's to pay a proven guy. Everyone has a price. If they hire Fleck I give him a 50/50 chance. The others mentioned, I'd give them a 25% chance.

Let’s wait til this is over but from my seat I wouldn’t be surprised if Elliot, MC and Fleck turn the job down

 

[BigOrangeFanatic]

Well. Not a basketball school anymore.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

If this team remembered how to defense they might be ok

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Some of you have lost your minds tonight

 

[InVOLuntary]

Lol. I guess if you just want theorize, go right ahead.

Lol, are you not theorizing that he'll make a good hire because he's made them in the past?

 

[UTgrad2015]

I absolutely laugh my ass off at the name Bahama John. Just a classic

 

[Power T-Rev]

I'm really considering turning off the game and watching the Doctor Who christmas special episode

 

[KeyVol14]

Also noticed Plowman and White at the game tonight. He looked pretty relaxed. Almost like he has his coach already.

They have their coach

Couple of Interesting names on there.

 

[SergeantVol]

Has any media people in Iowa asked Campbell if he has any interest in the Tennessee job or do they not think about football 24/7 like we do in the south?

Having grown up in the north (rural Wisconsin), I can tell you that the passion fir college football up there is not even close to the passion for college football in the south. When football conversations come up, it’s generally about pro teams unless you are in Michigan or Ohio. Sports just aren’t as big in the north, especially at the collegiate level.

 

[NMVol]

Lol, who are you hiring?

Am hearing White at Florida and Oats at Bama have been vetted. No search firm involved.

 

[VolGee4]

Lol, are you not theorizing that he'll make a good hire because he's made them in the past?

He’s PROVEN it. That’s the difference. But who knows what a $1 million AD could do?

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Now our basketball team sucks. We’re going to hire Sonny Dykes. When’s the rollercoaster head back up?

 

[turdherder11]

SV is soooo much better off the pass . Needs to stay in the 2 spot

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Am hearing White at Florida and Oats at Bama have been vetted. No search firm involved.

Neither one of those are leaving.

Nice try though.

 

[bignewt]

Anthony Lynn just went to the Lions as OC. He gets him a dual threat qb, watch out.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Let’s wait til this is over but from my seat I wouldn’t be surprised if Elliot, MC and Fleck turn the job down

I'm waiting it out for sure but if the names mentioned are what we end up with it's more of the same. No way am I buying tickets for another science experiment. I'll watch from afar. Hoping it turns out much better than it appears right now.

 

[Catbone]

How is this team so bad without a true freshman Springer? Shouldnt we have guys that should be able to carry his weight. We have no offensive or defensive identity anymore. So weird. Vescovi and Fulk are terrible

Are we already down and out on our new AD?

 

[volswillrise12]

[InVOLuntary]

He’s PROVEN it. That’s the difference. But who knows what a $1 million AD could do?

He's proven it at buffalo and UCF.
