Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

I could very Easily see Elliott turn us down

Same

 

[thomaseusin]

Basilio was the first place Dykes’ name got floated. He’s talking about our 2013 search guys

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I still have a gut feeling it's gonna be Scott Frost

 

[InstrumentalVol]

Honestly got to believe Dykes is a leak to make us feel okay about Elliot being an underwhelming hire. Id 100% take a flier on the coach from Buffalo, Toledo or my old high school before Dykes.

Waiting on @Atlanta VOL to give us some nuggets

 

[Sugaray13]

Guys RayUGA assured us we are getting a good HC.

Whew. I feel much better now.

 

[csprig9]

Hell, Butch and Dooley were better then dykes, Pruitt wasn’t so I guess it would be an upgrade

 

[BP4Prez]

I could very Easily see Elliott turn us down

Oh me too.

 

[VFL28]

Guys RayUGA assured us we are getting a good HC.

Who is RayUGA?

 

[Christian Lowe]

I could very Easily see Elliott turn us down

Clemson mods did question whether or why Elliott would leave to come here when he’d almost surely fail. Said it’s better for him to wait on a more sure thing.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

You do when the big fish say no

No you swallow your pride and hire Kiffin or freeze.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Time to start drinking again.

Not feeling too good about this search now.

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Ok, well tell everyone how (other than being a coordinator) is he anything like Pruitt??

- Elliot has been at one place versus 3 mercenary stops.
- Elliot is seemingly respected by his peers at Clemson....Georgia, FSU and even some Bama people can’t stand Pruitt.

Pruitt was loved at Bama and was successful at everyone of his stops. Elliott has had the benefit of Watson and Lawrence. Not sold. Sorry

You do not hire a $1.8M AD to hire Dykes, Healy or some coordinator.

White is 6 for 6 is coaching searches. I believe he's already got his guy, just finalizing the details and wrapping everything up. He's not Currie and trying to get the media to fluff up a horrible hire.

He also wasn't having to hire for a dumpster fire program with looming NCAA issues.

 

[PA Vol]

What the ***** fk is this Lmao

Best news we’ve had in a long time.

 

[sona]

I'd take Elliot over Dykes easily! I can't see myself EVER feeling good about the future of the program with Dykes.

They're working us. Floating a turd so we accept anything remotely better.

 

[knoxswim890]

So we wanted this....

And ended up with this....

Feels like if that’s the case we’re not getting any ‘sunny’ to go along with it.

 

[snowvols]

If it's Sonny Dykes, all I'm saying is 30+ candidates better of said no to us

We had better been turned down by the Mater Dei, St John Bosco, and Grayson coaches if it is Dykes.

 

[tomq_123]

Wow. Night crew came in and it escalated quickly...

 

[Patmo]

Honestly got to believe Dykes is a leak to make us feel okay about Elliot being an underwhelming hire. Id 100% take a flier on the coach from Buffalo, Toledo or my old high school before Dykes.

No doubt..I'd rather have Leipold than Dykes!

 

[csprig9]

I still have a gut feeling it's gonna be Scott Frost

Im beginning to wonder
Would definitely be out of left field type hire

 

[BP4Prez]

Paging Jamey Chadwell. Come save us Bro. Jamey.

 

[Aesius]

Maybe even a Brinks truck isn’t enough to get coaches to come here but Sonny Dykes is willing to go down in flames to make several million and then retire.

 

[VolsNUT]

I think he underestimated how little people think of this job. You can be the best AD in the world, but if no one wants your job, no one wants your job.

If Kiffin and Freeze are "begging" for the job (I don't believe it) it can't be that bad.

The investigation hurts, no doubt, but to think this job isn't appealing is absurd.
