Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[mr.checkerboards]

I'm really hoping the Haslam Boyd Freeze rumors are real. And sorry Phil love ya, but I hope the coup happens if hes in the way

 

[vol494]

Wanna see this? Bring that man here.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

What do you think?

I know we won't. But can't hurt to ask

Butch out here getting 3 & done players to Arkansas State while we struggling to land 5 year development guys

 

[VOLED]

At what point do we stop being a blue blood in football? Over a generation removed from success? I’d say We gettin pretty dang close

I think we passed that threshold a while back. It has been a long walk in the desert.

We don’t. Bc we spend the money like no one else.

No

[HankHill]

He’d get anyone he wanted from Memphis

I’ll take him vs leach/kiffin in Mississippi too.

I assume that was sarcastic considering the guy isn't even rated.

Exactly. If Duke basketball went through a 12 year rut that wouldn’t mean they’re no longer a blue blood. Was Bama no longer a blue blood when we were owning them before Saban? Don’t think so

 

[Batman1948]

$5 million less than his original contract, this is exactly what LA was saying. Seems similar to our situation with Pruitt...we'll owe him about $12.5 million, but if the dirt from summer can be leveraged to save us $5 million that's not too bad a deal then is it?

As long as it's not your money right?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

What if Tennessee spurns Auburn and Freeze brings in Steele as his DC. Then goes and takes Lebby from Ole Miss

 

[05_never_again]

He’d get anyone he wanted from Memphis

He actually doesn't have the greatest reputation there from his Briarcrest days, or so I've heard.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Please let it be Freeze. That would be the best hire we’ve made since Fulmer left. By far.

 

[Kingston Vol]

ATL Vol is talking about Campbell or Fickell, IMO.

No, but many fans (including a ton of Tennessee fans) were telling them they were. Many of their own fans believed it until Saban came along.

They can swing for those fences but those Midwest guys aren’t coming here.

Dude's not rated on 24/7... is he going to be done in 3 months cause he quit once camp starts...I'm confused?

 

[TN-POSSUM]

I am no prophet. And I certainly am just like the rest of you...I care about all things TN. I’m here to give you hope that there are some folks who are fed up with this administration and staff and that same group is working on trying to put together something where the juice will be worth the squeeze. Very influential folks are involved in this process..you can choose to believe or you can choose not to...that’s up to you.

 

[Kingston Vol]

I agree, but Freeze would be easy to get if they wanted to go in that direction.

He's not someone you work for like they seem to be hinting is happening.

 

[BigOrangeVols]

I’m telling y’all. If the rock speaks, it’s happening.

HIRE FREEZE!

I’d bet they’re guarding it somehow honestly. If it gets painted and photographed you can kiss the baby.

No brainer

Urban.

I wondered that. Freeze should be the floor. It better be Campbell or better if they’re “working” on something.
