Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[BleedorangeinGA]

We haven't really talked about Butch's former assistants but the fact they are landing at places like UTEP and not being snatched up by big programs says a lot.

It makes me happy that two landed at Florida.

Brillo you should totally get on the Titter..... It's 10 times better than Twitter.

 

[butchna]

Simply pointing out that if you're going to be an a$$ to me, I'll throw it right back atcha...

Knock yourself out. And by that I mean slam your head into a blunt object until it works.

 

[Glitch]

When is early NSP

You misspelled "nap".

 

[BigOrangeVols]

Anyone that leaves won't sting. No starters or backups are going to leave. Only backups to the backups backup. When you sign 20-25 every class you need to process a handful each year in order to make room for the next incoming class.

Only "sting" when they don't "stink". In other words, as long as Trey Smith (couple others) don't leave we're fine.

Isn't true. I actually have first hand knowledge from the man himself lol. Ran into Morris a couple of months ago in Destin. Talked to him and a friend of his for a few minutes. Asked him if he interviewed for the Tennessee job and he said yes. He sat down with both Currie and Fulmer about the job. Said the Currie interview was "interesting" and that he talked for a long time with Phil, who he was complimentary of. The vibe I got was he wanted the Tennessee job, but Fulmer went a difference direction.

I think it was Morris-- Currie was distracted and then told him he thought he was going to be fired.

LOL, now you're just being mean

 

[Rishvol]

Ok that is my assessment as well. He says he's not against Checker Neyland but his Titter timeline says different. And now he's trying to claim "Orange Out" is his idea. He's slowing creeping toward my block list.

I mean it's not like every game that's not checkered neyland isn't an orange out or anything

 

[butchna]

But you laffed...a little?

 

[ob79]

Lafed. Just one "f"...

Unless it’s olde England. Which is the rules I follow.

Could it be Woody Washington as the mystery DB

Friday night Espn high school game will feature Walton vs North Gwinnett. Warren Burrell(UT committ) #4 will be starting at cb and playing some wr for North. #51 national recruit Blaylock wr committed to UGA plays for Walton. This should be a good game with #4 and #5 ranked schools in Georgia go at it. On a personal note hopefully my nephews ankle heals enough to start, had 8 pancakes in the first half last week against Norcross, then a reoccurring injury of being rolled up on a bad ankle happened. #74 sr lg. This should give everyone a glimpse on what WB brings to the table.

You obviously doing it right...

Phil had nothing to do with it.


I'd gladly take Mullen today. Mixed reviews on both he and Pruitt at this point we seem to forget

I knew it was just a matter of time before the old Bruin returned..

 

[jakez4ut]

Could it be Woody Washington as the mystery DB

doubt it. jmo. i think he's solid to OU, and i'm not sure how far up our board he ever made it tbh.

 

[barrylee]

JG has been good and the oline hasn’t helped much. He just seems timid to me. Of course he did get hit 1000 times last year. Chryst looked more confident in what little time he played.

Coming in when it's 52 to 3 Will do that.. Chryst s the back-up, it really amazes me how some of you will not give JG his due..

 

[Skizer41]

I mean it's not like every game that's not checkered neyland isn't an orange out or anything

That was my thinking. I'd say its 70% orange on a normal game haha.

There is definitely something to be said about their mindset when they come into the game. It may be closer than some of us think making JG hesitant to take some deep shots in fear of getting a INT or two and causing him to get pulled. KC on the other hand knows he's got to prove something so he probably plays a little looser and is will to take a few deep tries.

I don't get the sense that UT is pushing as hard to flip some of these in-state players as people think. Pruitt's prototype hasn't changed and they'll be more selective now with the early signing period just a few months away.

 

[Nashvegas31]

I honestly don't know who Simonton is referring to or what he's said about that player. And I don't want to mess it up, because this guy keeps it low-profile. He has quietly visited UT a number of times. Under the radar, no drama. IDK where we are with him, other than he's always liked UT and wasn't coming here with Butch. But Butch is gone and he has a good relationship with Pruitt. Maybe he's Simonton's mystery guy and maybe not-- but we could use him.

I have an idea but it seems like he really doesn't want people to know so hate to guessing right and start rumors. Kid has an easy excuse and way to be here if it's who I think.

 

[Chuckie]

Yeah, I thought it would be more unique (to UT) to try to do a white-out, although many other teams (including Penn St. football) do that pretty routinely, so it wouldn't be unique to the sports world.

I think checker Neyland is awesome. To me it was, and is, a fan initiative and has zero to do with Jones.

Seems like they really want a couple of the guys in the Memphis area and that’s about the extent of it.
