Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[MarcoVol]

Let’s keep in mind that CJH just followed ADDW from UCF.

If he felt he was a meddler, inhibiting his hiring and coaching practices, he wouldn’t have come here.

This makes too much sense for this board

 

[Ron Swanson]

Didn't DW say in his press conference that he hired JH and JH would put his staff together because I'm an AD, not a football coach?

I told my kids we are out of popsicles. Doesn’t mean it’s true.

 

[Jpcisco]

It’s his non-related half cousin twice removed on his step-dads imaginary girlfriend’s side of the family.

I hear they are not close. She thinks MJ is the GOAT.

How did Manti Te'o get dragged into this?

 

[VOLinCO]

So, based on this latest narrative, DW is responsible for hiring Garner.

@Geronimo
Not much bothers me.
This bothers me.

This is like @mikemist avi in gif form for me. Makes my skin crawl.

I don't know why ... it's obvious some kinda pudding inverted bowl thing.
It's no where near as disturbing as stuff I saw on Rambo.

I'm not sure it's that black and white. From what I read, White presented Shannon to Heupel and he approved it. It was just too good a scenario to pass up. Shannon was a guy with a great resume, with great Florida ties, and his son was a linebacker on UCF's team at the time the job opened.

So it doesn't read like White forced him on Heupel, more like they had a chance to get a great DC on paper and Heupel stamped his approval on it.

Be careful with that, we might wind up with Shannon as our DC

 

[Kingston Vol]

It mets Kingston Vol's scenario, thus it is a fact.

Lol trust me or don't, I don't give a ****.

I've heard it from enough people to know it's true.

 

[amazingGRACE]

AP said Rodgers is still in play & it’s his job if he wants it. Said UT will ‘go in a different direction’, before Conklin.

Definitely sounds like DW is controlling the hire.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

You got Swanson’d like 15 pages ago on this one. Whole discussion on why the last names don’t match

Heck yeah tell Swanson he got Swanson’d that’s what I’m talking about #gotem

 

[rockytop25]

Danny White wouldn't have the good reputation that he does if coaches knew he meddled in assistant hirings.

Right, I wouldn't say he was "forced" to hire Shannon. But when your boss comes to you with a "recommendation," you have to take it, don't you?

That hire failed - Shannon was awful.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

@matts42012 makes it sound like instate 22 class is going to be a big swing and miss... that sucks. This was the best instate crop in a long time.

He doesn’t know ish

 

[butchna]

Let me preface this with saying, I'd prefer my Head Coach choose his entire staff.

But there's some flawed logic in pretending an Athletic Director is football competent enough to hire a Head Coach, but not a Defensive Coordinator.

Again, obviously it's better for the head coach to do it, but it's not like the Gymnastics coach is finding candidates for a Defensive Coordinator.

An AD hires the HC to make the on field decisions...including coaches. This is Jerry Jones hiring Jason Garrett before Wade Phillips territory.

 

[volinbama256]

We hired a DC yet? Any leaks?

yeah @HoleInTheRoof said "it's done"............................................. again.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

I told my kids we are out of popsicles. Doesn’t mean it’s true.

That’s just evil....

 

[jdavis675]

Lol trust me or don't, I don't give a ****.

I've heard it from enough people to know it's true.

So who hired RG...that is good right?

 

[UTMVol76]

I bet it’s more of a partnership than we are making it out to be. Again, they have worked together for 3 years.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

yeah @HoleInTheRoof said "it's done"............................................. again.

Gotta love getting Hole’dInTheRoof’d amirite?

@HoleInTheRoof

Well duh.... anyone thinking we were going to be able to grab anyone of substance is crazy with our coaching search circus...

 

[Weezer]

The most bananas roller coaster I’ve ever been on was X2 at six flags magic mountain. The pucker factor on that thing is off the charts.

I had no clue the chairs flipped forward & backwards independently of the main chassis so I legitimately thought I was about to die the first time I was on it.

The only roller coasters I don't like are those stand-up ones that have that piece between your legs. I rode one once and it left me walking funny from crushing my boys. Swore to never ride one again. It didn't scare me, it was just unpleasant, lol.

 

[Sleegro]

I bet it’s more of a partnership than we are making it out to be. Again, they have worked together for 3 years.

Actively searching for a scapegoat for problems we don't even know exist is a full time job on here.

 

[amazingGRACE]

@matts42012 makes it sound like instate 22 class is going to be a big swing and miss... that sucks. This was the best instate crop in a long time.

In the war room last night, Hubbs said that we’re squarely behind the 8 ball with the 22 class. Said a lot of kids want to make early decisions and we just don’t have enough time to build relationships there.

Obviously if we look good on the field this year, things could change.

 

[Weezer]

I am a ride fanatic...you ever been to Cedar Pointe?

Yes, but it's been 20 years or more. When I went, the Millennium Force was new.

I’ll take disemboweled bodies and exploding heads any day over...whatever this thing is.

 

[Volator]

Lol trust me or don't, I don't give a ****.

I've heard it from enough people to know it's true.

Then why respond if you don't... Your latest "opinion" goes along with your "opinion" that CJH offense will not work in the SEC because people who know said it won't. Just admit you pick and chose to support your passive aggressive stance towards the Vols. How is the Tee MArtin to head coach coming by the way...
