Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Year 3 is the make or break year for Pruitt. It's not in his best interest to break in a new QB that year.

Just say no to grad transfer QBs

I like

Jesus forgives and he's asked for forgiveness. TBH, I don't give a damn what they say but those guys are good at the croootin thing, they'll figure it out. He's a coordinator, not a HC, or position coach. OC's and DC's don't go all Nied's all over the country crootin, Bass. They gameplan and call plays mostly. He's really good at that.

I like Jesus, but he no help with curveball.

I’d like to see JG behind a line that can keep him clean. Several commentators in Vol games this year talked about how taking so many hits can have an impact on a QB’s psyche. Nate Peterman, for instance, must be an absolute practicefield warrior to have made it as far as he has, but totally falls apart when real bullets are flying.

I also think JG was playing hurt last couple games of the year.

Dax Prescott took like 8 sacks against Atlanta last year. He said it absolutely made him go quicker and make more bad decisions all the way into games this year. It’s a real thing.

One other thing re: Vandy.

Mason is getting ready for a new boss. Long time Director David Williams is retiring. They’ve poured little into football and nothing seems to indicate that won’t continue. I fully expect Mason to at least seriously pine for another job. He knows Tennessee is only going to get better too.

I was there. I was actually paying attention to this, because I expected Pruitt to be pissed about it. However, they seemed friendly, shook hands, and each went their own way. Mason did get the Gatorade bath right before they shook hands though.

I thought he was just wanting him as an analyst

Not correct ?

This was an article from AL.com this past April.

Alabama was one of at least five SEC schools that had contact with Freeze about on-field jobs this offseason. Saban wanted to hire Freeze as a co-offensive coordinator and position coach, sources told AL.com.

Report: Nick Saban Tried To Hire Hugh Freeze, But the SEC Nixed It

I thought Doyle did well all year.

Seems weather got cold and so did his punting.

 

[HankHill]

Eli Drinkwitz stuff is legit. I also think he’s meeting with Freeze tomorrow.

Edit: legit as in he is a serious candidate.

Perfect

Thanks for clearly that up

Correct. Pruitt halted just in time as Vandy players followed Mason out on the field and gave him the Gatorade bath, then they shook hands.

I have a hard time believing some of those tech players take calculus.

They don’t. Known a few dumb as rocks baseball players from there as well.

I’m sorry but he doesn’t look legit. Nothing about his resume impresses me. Convince me otherwise. How would this not be settling?

I assume Saban wanted Freeze as Co-OC and QB coach, but am admittedly not certain whether it was actually QB coach or not.

 

[JacketVol]

I don't think they did. What I saw on TV was they poured Gatorade on Mason before he met with CJP. And I think that pissed Mason off. Because no one had a towel nearby. He was making a big deal out of doing his TV interview before someone gave him a towel. The discussion between CJP and Mason looked pretty friendly actually. On TV at least.

Makes sense

Y’all go read them nugs in the Pappoe thread

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Personally hoping Chip Lindsey is the guy.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Brohm is staying at Purdue. Wow.

 

[SugarCC]

Mother in law passed away unexpectedly tonight. The wife is taking it as best she can. Prayers for her family would be welcomed.

Sad news, man. May she rest in peace.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Brohm is staying at Purdue. Wow.

That’s surprising. They gonna hire Kiffin aren’t they?

 

[BruinVol]

Brohm is staying at Purdue. Wow.

Loyal dude

Results. Hire em and judge em after I say.

 

[Catbone]

Brohm is going to be legit

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Brohm is staying at Purdue. Wow.

I liked your post, but deep down I hate that Brohm is staying at Purdue. rather he go to Louisville and do well and give Clemson fits.

Sorry Rish. Tell your wife we are thinking of y’all.

Did a 180 myself from when the names popped up. I’m hoping whoever the hire is has an innovative, sharp playcalling mind. Haven’t had that since Cut...at least consistently. Chaney got passing blinders and choked during tight matchups and Kiffin clunked against UCLA and Ole Miss. Lindsey is a reputed excellent recruiter so that’s a bonus...if true.

Really really want Freeze to happen. I feel like anybody else will be a disappointment.
