Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[RikidyBones]

Talking about a coach being potentially fired who has recruited you so long. How is that a good thing?

This isn't rocket surgery. Do I really have to explain it? Really?

 

[RDU VOL#14]

That’s such a bad look on the program when you’ve got men coming in with the understanding that he might not be there. Smh.

I think this is where the one time transfer allows for kids to follow through on their original decision after going through the process and if it doesn’t work out then they can look elsewhere.

Mostly positive comments from our solid commits saying how much they like the staff, but they’re coming to UT regardless of the outcome. Colby Smith said he would reconsider his decision if Pruitt is fired.

Thought you guys would love this, though.

Hell yes!!!

On that, we agree...and likely is the reason Freeze hasn’t been seriously considered for Auburn with them already sniffing around Pearl. You’re right that Butch received 5. Maybe it’s just coaching search fatigue on my part. I was a senior at UT when Kiffin came and went, so my entire post-undergraduate life has felt like one big repetitive coaching search. When each coaching search starts to get heated up, the same toxic things are said about the old guy, and there’s some mythical new coach everyone is dead set on being the person to fix it. It just gets old.

And we never get the guy who can fix it. It’s always a search engine coach or completely unproven guy.

I’ve never been less excited about a signing day

This class has a few pieces but certainly isn’t closing the gap

It’s the obvious situation. Do you think these kids live under a rock and don’t see the news? You should be happy that they are saying they love our University and not just stuck to a coach. That is what is most important. UT will give them so much after football too.

If we would’ve kept our momentum, it really had potential. Best part was that it would’ve been crippling to UGA.

If you think this is good then you probably need to explain it to yourself.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

I'm just waiting for these insiders to come in and say that the meeting got everything worked out and Pruitt is coming back.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Tell me who yalls favorites in this class are and why

Brooks. Hugh position of need

Willis, LB with speed

Evans and Brown, the running backs we’ve been missing

Campbell, dude looks like a real playmaker at TE

Salter, mobile QB, will be a nice follow to what Bailey does here

I’m not arguing that. Noting is better than getting a degree. You really think keeping that on the brain is a good thing? When most kids worth their salt transfer these days when the school does something they don’t like?

I’ll cry. Literally

 

[Voltrapnbama]

I’ll cry. Literally

Better get the tissues ready! Ha

Feel the same

 

[InVOLuntary]

Y'all can see where this is going? Pruitt gets next year. He beats all of the OOC games and wins 3 conference games (you pick). Gets blown out by the big three. Gets to 6-6 and goes to the weed eater bowl. Touts progress and gets year 5.

And yet here they are saying there may be a change and they are solid. So why are you freaking out? It means they want to be here and make UT great again.

 

[Dudleys87]

So let me get this clear, you want to keep Pruitt?

Absolutely NOT.

 

[KPT_VFL]

Our recruits already love Hugh!

Had we had the season we should have had Green, Mims, Mondon, and TID would all likely be Vols

Naw. He gone. Still has to sign the best class possible since he is getting paid handsomely to do his job.

Feels like the '18 class IMO, maybe a tad better.

Smh

The recruits are going into their decision with complete information. They are making their decision KNOWING there might be a change rather than assuming Pruitt is safe and feeling tricked. Yes it is good. It means there is transparency to the recruit. They know this PRIOR to signing. Would you prefer they think Pruitt returns and then Sunday hits and he's fired?

But insiders said that its possible that Pruitt is fired because some folks don't like him. Gtfo. Boosters at Auburn didn't like Gus last year but he got another year. Pruitt will be here at least next year.
