Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Absolutely. Wolken, Mandel, Forde, and others are waiting.

Edit: I absolutely want Freeze. But don’t care what the national media will think.

Would Auburn or Alabama get the same condemnation if they hired him? Nope.

 

[Smokeytom]

We have derailed.

 

[nesbuddha66]

Man, what happened in here.. jimmy hyams
is a damn buzzkill

 

[Geaux_Vols]

I'm out. See y'all after the presser.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Don't tell me we're back to the administration getting in the way of everything. I was really hoping we had gotten past that point.

Still a lot of politics involved. Getting Fulmer made it better but it didn't fix everything.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

It ain't going down this weekend I'm afraid. We'll probably have Raja Jubron or whatever his name is on the board shoot it down along with his cronies. Longer it goes on the less likely it's Freeze.

 

[UT4LIFE86]

So the higher ups screwed us again ?? That where were at ...and now were getting unc greensboro's oc ?? That sound right ?

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

That's why he's going to Barn and we get Lindsey.

 

[BruinVol]

You don't need support from everyone in "power". You need a strong AD that fights for what's needed and won't take no for an answer


Imo if Fulmer and Pruitt want this to happen it will. Doesn't matter about others

No politics in the recruiting forum.

BVS took hold.

 

[Rishvol]

So I missed a political discussion today?

No just a little TDS.

 

[kayakonthefly]

I heard that too. Who knows who it is? Has to be a board member. We have no chancellor and I can't imagine a temporary president yielding that much power.

It's Hyams.

Two words - Jeff Brohm.

(but it wouldn't surprise me)

 

[VFL23]

Thread is getting derailed, and losing steam...

 

[eVOLve]

 

[StoVol]

Pep getting an interview at Maryland

 

[Vols4us]

C'mon, Boyd. Sign off on the deal. It's time to win, not lose like you did in the primary.

I know, no politics in the recruiting forum.

One of his main contacts is Raja Jubran. I suspect it's a board member or two. Haslam/Haslams still yields a lot of power with the board. This is all speculation on my part. I talked to another booster early that said it would never fly because of h is baggage. I didn't get the impression he was dead set against it because I told him I could care less that I was tired of losing and he agreed. Also speculation but I don't think the Haslems would mind seeing Fulmer fail. If it takes Pruitt failing to cause that then so be it.

Ok, not to interrupt the interesting political debate—-but presuming we get Freeze I’m still interested to see how the Oline situation works out. Will he need to bring a staff member?

I do think this stretches out to late Sunday/Monday. Honestly, I would feel better about Lindsey. Less chance he and Pruitt have a falling out midseason. I also think Freeze is a one year rental.

I hate people that put their own personal egos above the greater good of others, etc.

would be a real tough call if Freeze wanted to bring some people, I mean who would You fire?
