Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Woodlawn VOL]

Doering went off on the Florida fan base on the sec network this morning, saying that a segment of the fan base was basically were spoiled and unrealistic to downright obnoxious. Talked about the fly overs calling for the Zook firing and other things he brought up. Pretty much said gator fans were ready to fire any coach that lost 2 games in the same season. GBO! I love it!

 

[Weezer]

Would Napier have been higher up on LSU's board than Aranda?

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Does he even last 3 years?

Surely they would have to keep the next person at least three years but who knows.

 

[Weezer]

I find myself hoping that Harsin is indeed in play for the Washington job, and that he takes it. Only because I want to see Auburn in complete disarray. I love when chaos hits other SEC teams. Lord knows, we've experienced enough of it ourselves.

 

[mrMet]

What a guy

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

If Napier doesn't get a head coaching job this time he must be a hype train to nowhere. If he turns down a big job now in the sec or isn't even offered he probably isn't getting one. Good grief everytime a search is on his name gets thrown out there, everybody has said he wants the LSU job. Well LSU and Florida are open, but why do I feel like he isn't going to be the man at either spot. Not saying he would be good or not I don't know, but for as long as he has been hyped for jobs I would think the iron probably isn't going to be any hotter than now. GBO!!!!!!

 

[VolGee4]

That’s why I am saying I would be shocked if they did it again. If they do, then they are content with staying where they are.

The coaching landscape has just changed so much. Everyone has money, and why would a high level coach leave his current job to take a job where they just fired the coach that went 34-15?

Mullen was an exception because he had previous ties to UF.

 

[Dudley Smith]

I gave Woodward credit for being a much saltier AD than his predecessor…but similar tunnel vision if this plays out.

Would Napier have been higher up on LSU's board than Aranda?

I think Aranda must be who they are targeting.

 

[Weezer]

Other than the Ohio State job opening up, what job attracts Luke Fickell? With what he's doing at Cincinnati, he has to be at the top of some of these coaching lists.

 

[mrmax86]

I hear you. Those 20+ lines make me nervous.

I bet 28 against USA, we won by 46. I think Heupel covers by 40 at least this weekend.

 

[VolGee4]

Hit take, but I'm not sure what the relationship is with Stricklen and MSU but would he try and pull Leach to UF?

He didn't hire Leach at MSU. He would also make that divide between him and MSU fans that much wider. Stricklin is a MSU alum and married the daughter of the best basketball player in their history. He only took the UF job because they came back with an offer that he couldn't refuse. He won't go that route again.

 

[drvenner]

I hear you. Those 20+ lines make me nervous.

We all know you have nads of steel. Quit trying to deny it.

 

[butchna]

I think Aranda must be who they are targeting.

And that would be a win.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Hate it for them.

I really do.

Please

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Apparently letting kids bang your wife makes you a really popular coach.

I’ll take Gervin if he wants to transfer

 

[mrmax86]

Can someone explain to me why we should be scared of Kiffin going to Florida? We get our 2nd chance to beat his ass in Neyland next year if so. I'd relish that opportunity.

 

[Volsdeep4]

Trying to remember but you said you have a trucking company correct?

Yeah, I have a few trucks under my authorities.

 

[ALStateLineVol]

Next year is going to be treading water at best...too much loss off an already thin team. We are going to have to get used to this until we get at least 2-3 full classes in and get them developed. I don’t think depending on the portal for rejects is going to be the answer for long term success. We have to get several good solid classes of high schoolers in the process.

With the type of offense CJH runs, it is immensely valuable to have skilled position players return and start the season with experience. If we have to break in a new QB & WR next year, we will start off next year the same way as this year. Selfishly I would love to see HH return to at least have that position stable another year while our newcomers learn. I think we could find some above average WR's in the portal but QB is totally different in this system. JMO

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I think Hooker will return. Once in a lifetime opportunity to do what's on the table for him if he returns.

 

[Weezer]

I’ll take Gervin if he wants to transfer

As long as he doesn't insist on making out with Mrs. Coach Heupel before games....

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Just ran a half marathon boys. Feels good. Longest run prior was 10 miles. 2:05:00

 

[Vol464]

Hey, that's my line! Except I use the @ symbol...cause I'm keyboard savvy.

Is this the typewriter you learned to type on?

 

[johnfnkelly]

 

[Adam2014]

If he wants to go be in a cult at A&M, then let him go.

 

[Weezer]

And that would be a win.

I agree, as long as he makes the correct assistant hires.
