Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Vols2DaWall]

I'd love Arnett here. Or somehow Odom

RG has already been contacted.

Can you give insight on if Tee or Jay will be around?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He didn't expect to be considered for the Head Coach job.

He wanted to stay on the staff and it is apparent he has been told that won't happen. He waited around through Jeremy Pruitt chastizing both he and Graham for taking the pay cuts because he loves the university and wanted to stick around. Fulmer made him some assurances that he knew wouldn't be honored once Phillip was fired, but he turned down other opportunities anyway to wait and see who the next coach would be.

He and Heupel have some beef, apparently, and separate from that point, it appears Heupel has another coach in mind for the WR coach spot. That's life in this business. But it does come with some hurt feelings for a guy who has never felt like he was truly appreciated here.

I understand him being upset to a degree, but he has to understand that he is a victim of a bad situation. You can't blame Heupel for wanting to make his own offensive hires, and you can't expect the HC hire to be made just to suit you.

And....he has some beef with Heupel and expects to be kept on his staff? That was never going to happen, and it is 100% understandable.

Would be pivotal. Especially for (hopefully) landing Nolen and recruiting in general. Would be a huge hire

Clicked the link. Saw the AtoZ logo. Immediately closed the link.

Those 2 are special

That was part of Pruitt’s undoing along with JG. He lost an edge when he stopped calling the whole defense

Agreed. That was the one thing that was elite about Pruitt.

I’m still stunned that Pruitt and Fulmer were so bad behind the scenes that the admin decided it was worth risking a swan dive into the asphalt.

AP says CJH meeting with Steele tonight

 

[Ten_Titans]

Do we not like Willie Martinez?

I thought our DBs always played pretty well under him to be honest.

 

[Z06VolinWV]

Interesting..

4 options to be Josh Heupel's defensive coordinator at Tennessee

If Steele doesn't stay, I'd say go after muschamp...even as much as i hate typing that!
KY DC is interesting, however, wonder how much he's absorbed from Stoops?

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

Eric Gray to OU

 

[BruinVol]

Arnett please

Yep the best option

Good to see the team buying in like this....

But what does Parker Balls mom think. That’s all that matters

[Batman1948]

Whoops, I didn’t know that “lock our border” down has been used here over the last 12 years...

-JH

Countries have borders and States have state lines. Maybe we're recruiting internationally now

 

[pismonque]

Fingers crossed they hit it off
