Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[VolGee4]

I didn’t add that because I felt like a lot of people already knew.

J.P was one of my favorites back in the day due to his name lol

Unfortunately, there aren’t many that follow former baseball players that become pro players...except Todd Helton, who also played football.

Pretty sure he’s dating Tomi Lahren’s fine a$$ too

Want to know how I know @Ten_Titans is a troll? Lose and he posts incessantly. Win and...

Some people have an innate need to correct what they feel is an over skew to one side of an issue or another. There wasn't a lack of joy in our winning, so he didn't feel the need to correct it. Doesn't make him a troll. You all will beat out of him his tendency to try to bring fanatics to what he feels is an accurate POV. You all (mostly) did that to me over the years, and it's probably for the better because fanatics in sports, religion, and politics don't really like people trying to reason them away from a passionate stance on those issues.

Used to be married to the Greeneville, TN native Kimberly Perry The Band Perry.

idk who this is but I choose to believe:

He used to play at TN. Was in the MLB. Probably has connections maybe even part of new donor money.

Yeah, that’s a fair point lol

 

[lilesrt]

You got to think the relationship he has with this young team will have a pull. Also, he really hasn’t got his guys in place yet. Sky’s the limit!!

I choose to believe UT will get this done. New Sheriff in town boys.

Check the glasses and croaky. He has to have some article of clothing/accessory representing the “power T” anytime he leaves the house. To say he’s trained and conditioned would be an understatement.

There’s a way to express a different take without trolling. He hasn’t mastered it. Are you back to chewing solid food?

All I heard was.."Blah blah blah blah...I am wrong all the time"

Former baseball player at UT

Cool story. Around 10 years ago I ran into Condredge Holloway at Turner Field. He was there to watch Arencibia who was playing for the Blue Jays.

 

[UTMVol76]

It’s odd that people on a fan board feel the need to correct people that are being...wait for it....fanatic to their favorite team. So odd.

You better have got an autograph! That’s awesome, really cool!

My cousin and I did get a picture with him. I got his autograph later on at the Big Orange Caravan.

You’ve been negative the entire time. It’s not wishful thinking with regard to talent. The state is loaded. Facilities are one thing but you can win a lot at UT with regional talent.

This…. If Tennessee would of pulled any of the guys I played with or against such as Sonny Gray, Mike Minor, and Drew Hayes…. Imagine…. All those guys ended up playing for an MLB team and two of them are still currently MLB pitchers.

The talent is definitely there if we recruit it.

Sonny Gray was the first time I faced a 90+ fastball…. I was like 15 or 16 and we were in the Tennessee State Babe Ruth Tournament… we placed 3rd….Looked over at my Dad who was my coach at the time…. Like wtf was that? (I played a lot of travel ball then as well and never saw 90s)

Older than Sonny but I did play against David Price. I was a lefty. It looked like his left hand was gonna slap my right ear after he delivered a 90-mph pitch. Never been more scared in my life. Did close my eyes and manage to go opposite field over the third basemen for our one and only hit. #humblebrag baby

 

[Christian Lowe]

Wild guess? Pay him and upgrade the stadium and facilities.

No he basically said tennessee can offer him the world and he’d still probably listen to LSU.

 

[engineerVOL]

Tony needs to blaze his own trail. Corbin can win a Natty with this talent, no reason he can’t here.

UT can only put out there the best offer possible. Millions of dollars, assistant coaches a huge raise and promise of of renovations of the stadium. But if he would rather coach at LSU there isn't anything UT can do to keep him if that's where he wants to be.
