Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLII

[ob79]

Kelly to florida doesn't bother me one bit. A long transition from the style they have now to that style that doesn't work in the SEC anyway.

Let's get our hire right and we can retake our rightful place over them in status.

You're mentally challenged.

Not so fun fact

Florida has won the East 4 times since the last time Tennessee has

Georgia has won the East 3 times since the last time Tennessee has

Missouri has won the East 2 times since the last time Tennessee has

South Carolina has won the East 1 time since the last time Tennessee has

Why you always talnbout old stuff

Low also said Tennessee is a toxic atmosphere.

So Florida fires their back-to-back division winning coach midway through his third season and tries to swindle him out of money in the process, and Tennessee is the toxic atmosphere. Such is life as a Vols fan.

HG's optimism appears well-founded.

Yeah, that's why Spurrier left on a bad note the first time, urban ran out of there with heart problems, and you can win SEC East several times (even previous year) and get thrown out. Wonderful place.

If anything Florida's environment is a more toxic environment that UT has right now.

 

[WhiteOakVol]

MSU doing well. you know, Mullen is a good coach. He would win big here imo. And, you know, great with quarterbacks also.

Come'on, Bass, don't give into temptation!
Stay on the Grude Train!

 

[Aesius]

Low is basically Larry in media member form. Still wistfully remembers the days when he covered the Vols in the mid-90s and had access to Fulmer and the gang.

This and it isn't close. Lowe has been irrelevant the last 5 years in Knoxville. I am not worried about anything he says.

 

[Rishvol]

Isn't Chris low a Florida alum

Proximity has messed with his perception.

 

[BruinVol]

Lol

Think opposite

 

[drylo]

Chip would absolutely kill it at Florida.

Can’t think of anyone scarier they could hire

Kirby’s going to crap his pants.

 

[LaagerVol]

It’s really not. He caught the college football landscape off guard with his style of play. Now college and nfl have adjusted. im sure he would be good but i still prefer a more power approach.

His offense wasn't bad in the NFL. Personnel moves were horrid.

Spurrier left on a bad note? I'd honestly never heard that before.

Don't you wish you could call in and hand his ass to him? VOLS fans aren't toxic we are some of the most loyal in football, we just hire terrible coaches.

 

[McGeesPub]

No he's a Tennessee alum.

 

[JCP201]

Spurrier left on a bad note? I'd honestly never heard that before.

When he went to the Redskins, I had heard he wasn't happy with TPTB.

Agreed

 

[therickbol]

To each his own. But Jennings will cost himself a lot of money trying to jump straight to NFL after this season. UFA contracts don't have very many zeros in them.

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

If he goes to UF, we’ve gotta hope that

1. You’re right and things in football have passed him up a bit


and/or

2. Gainesville is a bad fit for him culturally and he’s limited because of it.


Honestly, I’d really enjoy seeing UF spend a lot of money on him and #2 being the case.

 

[McGeesPub]

Kinda catching up since the initial news, but what a scumbag. So glad that dipsh!t is gone. Never liked him- he was not good enough for Tennessee.

 

[volfanCLT]

Nobody has stopped his offense at any level

 

[85SugarVol]

Keep circling back to Austin Price saying he is all in. Swan is all in as well and that has Larry giving it more if a chance.

Another thing I think about is the rumor Gruden would be back in town for homecoming. Don’t know who brought that rumor around but then the day comes and Larry confirms he is in East Tennessee.

It’s happening.

I like this Ziti

 

[drylo]

I just hate playing against offenses like Kelly’s (and Mizzou’s under Heupel, and to some extent, Malzahn). It can backfire spectacularly (see Mizzou), and there’s no guarantee it wins big, but I hate playing against it.

This. They always get to come out smelling like a rose, while we end up with egg on our face. Pisses me off.

 

[Aesius]

Florida fans and admins are right to demand more, and it's okay that they fire guys after 3-4 seasons, even if they make it to BCS bowls or win the division 2/3 years.

But when we call for a guy to be fired for posting horrible to mediocre results after 5 years, we're a toxic fanbase.
