Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Jackcrevol]

I hate to say it, but Bama actually develops players, which is why it's odd to me that we saw no player development under Pruitt.

he didnt have time. remember the rumors of him wanting to go back to be just a baw coach? his ego wouldnt allow for error, and apparently lack of managerial skills hurt him and his roster. specifically hiring a Lb coach with 0 experience.

 

[Weezer]

So we don't need DBs, or are there just not any worth taking?

I'm left to believe they don't see our secondary as a weakness, which baffles me, but they see them far more than we do. Still think we need another ILB and at least one CB.

Transfer portal makes the rich richer again

Our best player leaves to become a marginal contributor to the best program over the last decade while we are throwing the long snapper in for Reps at LB

rule is great, as an idea. needs to be regulated, by SEC.

Albright will spear someone this year

 

[Smokey'sHandler]

Henry T. is a very talented player and would have probably received a 3-5 round draft grade with a performance this year being similar to last years. If he had transferred in January, gone through spring practice and gotten in their weight program I believe we would’ve had a chance at cracking Bamas LB starting rotation. I personally thing it’s going to be way too much of an uphill battle for him at this point since he will only get fall practice and needs to put on 10-20 pounds.

He could prove me wrong but I don’t expect him to contribute until at least 2022. At that point he will either need to put in the work and develop or get recruited over. His decision may cost at the same level as Jalen Hurds decision to transfer.

Just means we can run slants to the middle of the field against Bama next year

I could see him being used in sort of a situational type role, to rush the passer. blitz.

Henry T is a loser.

 

[lilesrt]

This irritates me more than any of the transfers we’ve had so far, it’s not the fact he transferred it’s the fact he transferred to them.

We shouldn’t have given him a reason to leave. We fix our house this problem doesn’t exist.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Hope nothing more than to see HT ride the pine all year

 

[Weezer]

NCAA is gonna have to change the rules om transfers counting toward the 25 cap. It needs to be you get a spot for every scholarship player you lose. Otherwise, there are gonna be teams that struggle to reach the 85 cap. And we might be one of them.

 

[JCP201]

Bama was the highest bidder. Everyone knows it-- nothing will be done to them.

 

[turdherder11]

Lmfao. Only UT. Nick Saban, Henry T, Lane Kiffin at ole miss, all are about to put a beat down on us this year. I'm sure Bruce Pearl will get one in also in basketball . Its tough being a vol fan.

Because Pruitt sucked. He built his reputation on the backs of elite players. He was able to recruit those players because.... well we know how. Pruitt will fade into the oblivion now that he's been exposed. He was never this guru he was made out to be.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

He might make it to 2nd string

 

[InVOLuntary]

Only in garbage time because that's when he'll be playing.

Pruitt was a bad head coach, the worst we've ever had. His dome was bigger than his capabilities. I believe he is a good defensive coach, not elite. Just good. And a db of a human.

 

[Ten_Titans]

He is just riding Toot’s junk.

BT, Wanya, and Wright all have similar accolades as Toot. BT went undrafted, Wanya sucked last year, as did DW. I don’t see how it’s too farfetched to say Toot won’t be drafted, smh. Some people get to close to their team favs.

And some people let their favorite team cause them intense ass pain that clouds their judgement. Bama wouldn't be taking him with a single year of playing time if they didn't see him for what he was: a day one starter at least and most likely an early draft pick.

Not a Henry T fan at all. I can just recognize transferring under the circumstances isn't a character flaw.

If he was great defensive coach we wouldn't have had so many bust. I wasn't impressed with him after the first game that he coached in. He sucks as coach and a person. He's nothing more than a con man. He conned Fulmer into hiring his dumb Gump ass.

 

[PA Vol]

Hope he fails in absolutely everything football related.

Get your degree. Best of luck from there.

 

[peaygolf]

They're trying to host a regional so I doubt Tony V is gonna rest anyone until that is locked up

That's pretty much a done deal

 

[SweetasSoda]

Maybe the thinking is it doesn't matter what you have in the secondary if the line is weak.

 

[Jackcrevol]

He he was again defensive coach we wouldn't have had so many bust. I wasn't impressed with him after the first game that he coached in. He sucks as coach and a person. He's nothing more than a con man. He conned Fulmer into hiring his dumb Gump ass.

water under the bridge. we all agree he's a massibe dbag.
