Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVIII (New Coach Edition)

[volatil]

I’m good with Leach bc he will not give the media what they want. They will try to grill him and he will just start talking about god knows what.

Pirates

 

[TheTimeIsNow]

Is this what Cleveland fans feel like?

 

[HankHill]

He's the type of coach who would quit midseason here because he was just fed up with the kissing babies and shaking hands routine that the UT head coaching job requires.

Hopefully he would be the UT coach that changes that. Let him just coach football and leave him alone.

 

[Aesius]

Is this what Cleveland fans feel like?

It's almost like the two fanbases have something in common...

 

[snowvols]

I would rather have Leach's DC than him. He is the next Mt Union Matt Campbell type guy.

 

[SeanJean]

If we're going the DC with a great staff route, give me Pruitt over Steele any day.

At least Pruitt is young. He'd probably have a strong bag man game, too. Steele would go 3 and out and give us 10 total wins in the process and a terrible roster to boot.

Pruitt is just another Saban table scrap who has no connection to this University and will bolt at the first opportunity for a better job, if he was to come at all. At this point, they need to go with someone who understands Tennessee and will bring in a Tennessee staff. It is DEFCON 1 time. Start from scratch.

 

[Aesius]

Hopefully he would be the UT coach that changes that. Let him just coach football and leave him alone.

That would be ideal, but I don't think he has enough equity in his career to get it. They would rather just skip over him than change the status quo of the position.

 

[BruinVol]

Yes he is a rising star

 

[SpringBokVol]

I want Morris. All in.

Which means it will be Steele or Fleck

 

[Ron Swanson]

We are all trying to get where Tennessee is going right now.

Chad Morris I think is a possibility. I'm not ruling out Kevin Steele.

Then you go with Tee. Not Steele. Popcorn fart is the best way to describe Kevin Steele. Stale, burned popcorn fart.

 

[SCvol333]

Kiffin or Tee!

Get over our pride. Do we even have any left anymore after the last month? Just hire Kiffin. He would win big here. He left us for his dream job. Sure he could have done it in a better way. But he went for his dream job. And that dream is dead now. So let's bring him back. We need him. And he needs us. What's more important ? Pride or winning ? Winning cures everything. Even burnt mattresses.

I agree. I feel like in need a shower. But I agree. He was a blocked field goal from beating bama w no talent

 

[Aesius]

I'd be thrilled with Fleck right now, especially if the alternative is Steele.

 

[Kingston Vol]

I want Morris. All in.

Which means it will be Steele or Fleck

Same.

 

[HankHill]

I would rather have Leach's DC than him. He is the next Mt Union Matt Campbell type guy.

Why not have both. A chance of being set on both sides of the ball for once.

 

[Jimmy Football]

-Hubbs

The sentence about Steele is nearly identical to the ones about Schiano. It's going to be Steele.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Please not Steele! If not Morris, hire Tee or Kiffin. Not Steele! Good grief give the fans and former players what we want for a change. Clearly yalls decision making hasn’t worked!

 

[LA Vol]

This board is a microcosm of UT. Everybody's spinning in circles, wanting to go in different directions. No consensus, no unity. We've been here before. If UT reacts the same way and hires another Dooley or Butch an a futile attempt to save a recruiting class that's already history, we're going to have the same-- or even more damaging-- result. Feels inevitable.

 

[Face]

-Hubbs

Will be steele

Book it

 

[JacketVol]

So Currie is okay with covering up CHILD rape but not sueing your employer.

Good to know where he draws the line.

-Hubbs

"Not ruling out" is what Hubbs said, repeatedly, about Schiano.

Ugh.

 

[volatil]

-Hubbs

Ok so we are being held hostage by A&M decision

 

[SpringBokVol]

I'd be thrilled with Fleck right now, especially if the alternative is Steele.

I still think you get Morris and come out of this smelling like roses.

Dude can flat coach offense. And that is what we need desperately.

 

[McGeesPub]

Just hire Steele and let’s burn this mutha down.

I'm telling you, no one offers more burning down potential than Kiffin.

 

[SeanJean]

Then you go with Tee. Not Steele. Popcorn fart is the best way to describe Kevin Steele. Stale, burned popcorn fart.

Hey, I agree with that 100%. They should have called Tee after the Schiano fiasco and been done with it. But we are Tennessee, so, derp.
