Recruiting Forum Football Talk LI

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Randy Sanders IMO

>>>>>>>>>>Steele

 

[OrangenSC]

There will never be a coaching search to match this fiasco.

So at least we're tops in something these days.

 

[BruinVol]

This doesn't sound good:

Tennessee and Jeremy Pruitt continue moving toward his hiring as head coach

If this is true and he can't start recruiting until after the playoffs F him and let's move on. If Tucker says the same let's roll with Steele. If they want to be here great if not F them!

 

[Chief Vol 13]

I don't think anyone in here would be offended by profanities. We're adults.

Enlighten us.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he's full of doo doo. Sick and tired of people saying stuff is "done" when it's not. Nobody knows anything. Podium.

 

[JCP201]

Guys I just got a text from Pruitt’s ex who said he would never take the TN job earlier.

Now she’s says done deal we hired him. She can’t believe it but she claims it’s true.

Can’t share cause she included some pretty salty language about him.

You are the guy who said the Auburn cheerleader told you it was Malzahn. lol

 

[amazingGRACE]

I remember the last time Jason got a text saying a coach to UT was a done deal..

 

[Nash_Vol97]

I’m so ready for this to be done.

 

[JacketVol]

If he’s really about to be our coach, he doesn’t hit the recruiting trail for Bama. Before you start, he not hitting it for us to sabotage them. We have too many chiefs in the teepee. That reminds me. TEE gonna PISS on is too. They all deserve it over on the hill.

 

[engineerVOL]

But if we truly think he’s going to win us championships him coaching at another school for an extra month shouldn’t be a deal breaker IMO.

Not a deal breaker but this notion that it benefits us is preposterous.

We may as well march Phil out in a big crimson bow and put him on Bama’s sideline.

 

[BigZiti09]

You disagree?

Yeah. It’s contract negotiating. A dumpster fire is what has transpired prior to this week. Fulmer has ran a professional search. Maybe a little slower than we’d like but there’s not a need to rush except to get it done before this weekend.

 

[JCP201]

So who is tracking Fulmer and Bev's plane?

 

[KnoxLandcruiser]

1. Denial
2. Pain
3. Anger/Bargaining
4. Depression/reflection & loneliness

I realized this morning that I am firmly at stage 4. Sorry to be "that guy" but our situation could not be any worse than it is right now.

Just do it already and end this nightmare of a search.

I'm editing the above to move back up to 3. I'm really pissed off again.

 

[buffaloblue]

Hahahhaahhahahhahahahahhaa this coaching search

 

[KPT_VFL]

It’s going to end up being Kevin Steele because we are complete idiots. We have had several people interested in this job and everyone of them UT has F’ed up

 

[engineerVOL]

Tennessee isn't in a position to make demands at this point.

BS.

We’re a big opportunity for him. He meets us halfway and should be taken off the recruiting trail for Bama.

 

[jason3713]

Ok, it’s really not salty language but not what TN fans want to hear about their new coach if he is.

I heard he took it! I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!!!! He hates Tennessee, he hated it when he lived in murpheesboro! He hates gatlinburg he hates country!!! Omg!!!! He's doing it for the money, and probably so his son can transfer from jsu to come play for him

Who really cares if he coaches the playoff? To the fans, it’s a bitter rivalry. To these guys, it’s a career, and he’s close with Bama players he’s been coaching. He’s put a lot into that team. I hate Bama as much as anybody, but let him finish the job with them if he wants to and Alabama will let him.

He needs to recruit for us hard through the early signing day, but I assume he will be plenty motivated to do that anyway.

 

[KnoxLandcruiser]

If we hire Pruitt and let him coach/recruit for another month for bama, I'm done.

 

[i2amavol]

BS.

We’re a big opportunity for him. He meets us halfway and should be taken off the recruiting trail for Bama.

He has a high paying gig with Bama, until everyone signs on the dotted line.

 

[IhateGA]

BS.

We’re a big opportunity for him. He meets us halfway and should be taken off the recruiting trail for Bama.

Enjoy Kevin Steele.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I am so miserable.

Don’t lose him because of the playoffs good grief

 

[HankHill]

If we hire Pruitt and let him coach/recruit for another month for bama, I'm done.

Yea Georgia is really regretting letting Kirby do that right now...

 

[unioncityvol]

It’s going to end up being Kevin Steele because we are complete idiots. We have had several people interested in this job and everyone of them UT has F’ed up

And no Tee. Get ready for Steele, Sanders, and Chavis fellas.

 

[zballvol]

I don’t think this could’ve been handled worse than it has. It’s mind numbing that this could still be going on. Tennessee can’t have nice things

 

[Blake25p]

If we hire Pruitt and let him coach/recruit for another month for bama, I'm done.

He wouldn’t be recruiting for them,
