Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Why on Earth would they be looking at Gran? If Kentucky didn’t have the worst offense in the SEC, they had to be close and that was with one of the best backs in the SEC. They might as well hire Tyson Helton which I would greatly approve

It's hard to run a horse race without a horse, ky hasn't had a QB in a while.

Kentucky happened to be hot at the right time for Gran. I’m surprised Kirby is aiming low—I think he’ll regret letting Chaney leave.

 

[Crazy Ivan]

"The Wildcats were 61st in total offense in 2016, 103rd in 2017 and 104th this year. They went from averaging 372 yards per game under Shannon Dawson in 2015, his one year calling plays at UK, to 360.8 this year."

Nice choice, Kirby! Hahaha

Gran had a pretty explosive offense at Cincy. I suspect if he were to go to UGA with their talent at QB and elsewhere, you would see UGA's offense more closely resemble what he had at UC than UK.

 

[WinginFlorida]

Wonder what the possibility is of coach Gran wanting to bring in his own people.

I think they're going to need him to. And while he's at it, he should also bring some of his friends to Bama...their staff is thinning out at an alarming rate.

 

[LouderVol]

Disagree. There was no need for them to move Shrout to three even if McBride was leaving. They moved him because of his potential.

yes, but not to 2. we saw Chryst wasn't that good, the potential wasn't enough there. no reason to think he takes JGs spot just for moving from 4 to 3.

Hiring someone based off their success at Cincy is not always the brightest idea.

We’ve been a victim of that shiz.

We're all hoping it makes him most miserable

 

[Florida Orange]

Didn’t Byrd announce for Miami at the Army All-American game?

No. He was verbally committed at the time of the game and flipped the night before signing day.

 

[jpope9]

Complains about chaneys 30th ranked offense, praises gran's 100th ranked offense.....lol jawja logic.

 

[RikidyBones]

lmao

[BJWeeks]

Sooo who would you rather have Emory jones or Hurts

Jalen

 

[UTProf]

SIAP

Purely an internet rumor, so there's like a 95% chance that none of this is true.

Sounds great but at the rate players declare for the draft at BAMA and given that Kirby's been gone for 3 seasons I don't think it's Kirby they miss.

Was pretty explosive against AAC foes. Against good defenses, not so much.

UT contained his best UK offense with Benny Snell.

Yes, that UT.

 

[Crazy Ivan]

If you are hiring a HC, true, as we all know too well. But if you look at the 3 OCs that Stoops has had at UK - Gran, Neal Brown, and Shannon Dawson- all 3 had lethargic offenses there, but have wide open offenses wherever else they have been. The common denominator there is Stoops, same as Butch was the common denominator at UT.

 

[VFL13]

I also love tight ends.

Whose fault is that? Eddie Gran’s, and he made a bad offense worse

 

[ChismsHeadband]

Emery Jones tweet is fake news. Took my like back @Bassmaster_Vol

I left mine there because F*** Florida

 

[JAllen18]

Georgia has a stacked recruiting class but they will be on the way down.

Just saying how hard it is to have a good QB. LSU has suffered for years not being able to land a top notch QB as have many others.

 

[volinbama256]

I left the board reading a lot of positive on Tee and UT and now skimming and there is talk to Miami? What is the current feel as of now at this point in the day?

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

It’s a great time to be a Vol. This time remids me of when Cut came back to Phil in football. I don’t ever remember feeling as good about basketball. My hope is baseball can come on.

That being said, keep Tony White in your prayers.

 

[Coach Punk]

As OC. Like Applewhite is out. But the Tee to the Hill smoke seems like the Tee to Miami OC smoke right now. Wants to gets some confirmations.

 

[BruinVol]

You guys sure are in love with stats when it comes to evaluating an OC.
You loved Yurcich who was 6-6 and don't like E.G. Who won 10.

OC stats mean nothing if you can't win .
