Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Skizer41]

So we mad or happy. I'm confused. Again. These coaching searches are getting crazier and crazier.

 

[butchna]

That's probably BS spin.

I give Hubbs a hard time for kicks but he’s no mouthpiece.

 

[nashvol1]

If we have a legit chance at Freeze and a bureaucrat won’t sign off, will be a while before they see my dollar again. Tired of this crap.

chicken **** move imo. if they knew awhile back, their sudden moral compass is worth a Haslam coaching hire.

The NFL is all about publicity. Player safety, domestic violence, etc. only actually matters when it hits the media.

 

[butchna]

I understand it, but that leaves my fantasy team in a pickle

Oooh...sorry man!

Wasn’t real until TMZ. Owner knew in August.

Let’s be honest... there is not a lot of moral compass involved in multi million dollar decisions. He just became unprofitable employee

Sad. True.

 

[WriterVol]

Agreed but everybody that is a fan of this school is tired of being the freaking laughing stock of college football When we may just gave the right combination to rid of us of this title and years of anguish.

That username.

Not sure if intentional or ironically appropriate.

If the Admin/board won’t approve Freeze, then I don’t see Pruitt here long. If he can’t get the support he needs, he will move on as he should.

He would remember that when it came time that someone is knocking on door for him. "Oh you remember that they approved the hire you didn't"

Not saying any of that Is true but if it was he will remembers it

that's my point really. there is none and their pretend claim is transparently cringeworthy

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

I think it has very little to do with the BOT at this point. Fulmer can make the call. I believe behind the scenes Freeze wants the job. I think some of the buyout language is what the hold up is.

 

[I40VOL]

Pruitt will start planning his eventual exit if that happens IMO. He will know right away that he can't be successful long-term here.

Exactly what I have thought, he's not used to a sh*t show like this

I think you're right about the BOT, however I think the ball is in Freeze's court. I think hes been offered the job, just waiting on his decision.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

If true BIG IF

Pruitt has to feel like he has no support

Yep, and the sadder thing long term is we won’t be able to keep him, if he is successful, because he will already be planning his exit to a program like Bama who will give him full support and what he needs to be successful.

Siap, but I'd bet there's also some language that protects TN in the event Hugh goes back on some old habits...

 

[SugarCC]

Last year

Took them, and Pruitt, apart.

Freeze wants it bad. This thing will get done imo. Just figuring out fine print.

What more do you know @HankHill whats the feeling?

 

[jakez4ut]

Lol

 

[ChismsHeadband]

I sure hope that's all it is.

 

[Nashvegas31]

People have to quit listening to basilio and kress. They take these times to make people think they know stuff.

I never win this. Do you hand out participation post of the days awards?

That’s a black eye!..PR related

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Yeah, that’s sports though. You could take the highest moral ground and quit watching anything due to coaches lying, player safety, lies to recruits, cheating and paying players etc...

Personally, I just accept it for what everything else on earth is... a flawed system. There is enjoyment to be found in it, and whether the baggage that comes with it is acceptable or not is a personal decision
