Recruiting Forum: Football Talk XIV

While I "get" your post, let's slow the roll on Auburn cruising right along. Bruce hasn't coached a game yet. Additionally, Bruce took the job before we had an opening. It was simply bad timing. We weren't firing Martin.

I learned after Buzz Peterson that you have to have a basketball coach that will play the recruiting game. It is a dirty business. Bruce and now Tyndall are coaches that were willing to play. You just don't want to do it in a dumb way and hope not to get caught. UT is not under investigation. Let's see where this takes us.

It wasn't going to matter, they were not hiring Bruce back under any circumstances. I was told months earlier that Cuonzo would not be back, he wasn't happy here (pre petition). He would take the first decent opportunity that came along to get him out of town. I'm sure the administration suspected this was the case.

As to Bruce, no one can argue that the man can coach, the question was could he recruit with a tarnished image? I think he's answering that question pretty emphatically. Bruce will win at Auburn I'm confident. He could have won here again too. It's a shame people's egos get in the way of making the right decision.

Got a question for the RF. How many of you guys care a lot for UT sports other than Football? I'll be honest, but the only UT sport I care a lot about is football. I mean, I'll watch other Ut sports from time to time when football isn't on. If they win, great. If they lose, I really don't care.

P.S. I do really like soccer, so I'll follow the lady vols team when I get the chance.
