Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Dudleys87]

Tennessee basketball wins by 40.... Pruitt is fired and Freeze hired by midnight. What a night that’d be

The board would melt fast than that fire on the mattress

 

[rekinhavoc]

I still think they gave PF his extension as a going away present. Starting to make sense.

When you win by more points than your opponent scores...

[Dudleys87]

Only if it’s for the right hire. Firing Pruitt and hiring Randy Sanders aint it

If any of it has legs Fulmer won’t hire another coach.

 

[SpringBokVol]

This basketball team is good. Gonna be a fun ride.

Stout man

Whoooooaa

I’d love for Barnes to finally shut up the haters and win a title

If Pruitt and his staff are handing out GIT shirts the day before signing day to Loooong time commits and especially local in state kids. F them I want them fired yesterday.

Bass I figured you have been digging, know anything yet?

 

[reeceb73]

I’m right there with you. What I keep telling myself. This is just a moment in time and can’t last. The truck that hit you, hit me 5 days ago.

I'm on day 10 with the Rona and I'm just starting to feel somewhat back to normal. Days 5-9 were the absolute worst. Barely got out of bed. Aches, fever, extreme fatigue. Awful virus

That sounds a lot like what Ed O did way back when trying to screw the school your leaving.

Sure does.

 

[05_never_again]

Let’s take it all the way back to not replacing Cut with the best person you could find, but the best person on your current staff, and then micromanaging him and creating a schizo offensive identity.

Also, losing Rodney Garner did not help...

I suppose you could, but Tennessee could (should) have won the SEC and played for a title in 2001 with Sanders as OC. They were an elite team that year, even though they lost to an 8-win Georgia team with a rookie Mark Richt and had some close calls against bad teams. That was a quintessential Phil year - play up or down to the competition. He did that his whole career. He was so much better in an underdog role than as a favorite.

It’s a bit harsh, but I suppose technically accurate, to say the decline began right after they won it all in 1998.

Yep. Sounds like he's telling kids, im not gonna be here.

He knows what’s coming

Their recruiting of this state has been their biggest sin, in my opinion.

 

[VolInDayton]

He ain’t making any of these calls...he’s being told what’s gonna happen at this point

Glad to see there is no structure and we are about ready to be a mess all over again. This power struggle crap is not an environment any coach worth a dang will want to be a part of

 

[SLICKYINC]

He knows what’s coming

And he’s burning it down on the way out.

 

[yabo]

Rumor from 247 it appears that kiffin is making it know he would like the auburn job per VQ.

 

[utvolmaniac]

While I understand what he’s done is incredible part of me says what if the SEC is to big for him? A lot of good coaches never cut it under the pressure every week

And if everyone has this way of thinking, UF wouldn't have hired Urban Meyer; LSU wouldn't have hired Nick Saban; UF wouldn't have hired Steve Spurrier; etc.

I understand your thinking, and UT's history of hiring the wrong coaches cannot be discounted, but the odds are they have to get it right sooner or later.

 

[Dudleys87]

It would also make sense why our biggest recruit pushed his commitment back. Pruitt could have told him I won’t be here so let’s wait

Don’t believe that for a minute.

Then he's willing to bail after one year.
