Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVIII (New Coach Edition)

[drylo]

Brohm is a great hire. He’s been a head coach for 4 years, all impressive. Our roster isn’t as bad as it played this year. Somebody like Brohm could win 8 games next year. Steele probably wins 4 again.

Do we even have a podium? Maybe that's the problem. I can get a podium , I can get a podium by 2 o'clock.

That's the problem.

We keep talking about a podium.

Our new coach needs a wide open space to trot. He doesn't need a podium.

Press conference needs to be held here:

University of Tennessee Equestrian Team: Our Facilities

Still hopeful there is another heave to the end zone out of nowhere, like yesterday.

Brohm appears to be a 14 yard pass. I just don't know if it's 3rd and 12 or 3rd and 17.

 

[RockyTop85]

Brohm you say?

, I say.

A friend of mine who is an ex RB for the Miami Canes called me this morning to ask me what the he#$ is going on with Tennessee coaching search and to give me a little ribbing. He was the starting RB in 79-81 when Jim Kelly was QB and Mark Richt was backup during the days. He is very good friends with former Canes Jim Kelly, Mark Richt, Jim Burt, Otis Anderson, etc..and he is tickled to death with Mark Richt being back with the Canes.

Anyway, he said something to me that stuck in my mind. He told me it doesn't matter who the coach is that players win games not coaches. He told me during the Canes dominance back in the days, Miami was getting all the South Florida kids and 4 star and 5 star players left and right. When they got Al Golden, the recruiting pretty much stopped especially getting the top kids out of South Florida with mainly them going to FSU and Florida. Now that Richt is back, Canes are getting 4 and 5 star players again and Richt is putting a fence around South Florida and hence, Miami is winning again and it's because the players not just because Mark Richt is a great coach all of a sudden.

His point to me was as he asked me, why not give Tee Martin a shot? He told me "you know Tee is going to recruit well especially at Tennessee and start getting 4 and 5 star players left and right and I'm sure he will build a great staff because his contacts". He told me "Miami has never had the money, facilities and fan support as Tennessee has but we are now winning again because we are now getting the players again because Richt is a great recruiter and the players are making Mark look great right now". He told me it makes no sense at all why Tennessee doesn't at least speak with Tee and gauge interest because in his mind Tee is all orange and would do his best to right the ship and as long as Tee signs the players he will win at Tennessee with the tools he has to work with!

Can anyone enlighten us on this UT Board of Trustees meeting going on right now? Houston Kress tweet? Sorry, not in a position to link or screen print. Has to be fake news. Blacked out windows and armed security?

Bah gawd we’re hiring Lane Kiffin

If somehow, after all this idiocy, we back into Brohm I’ll be extremely relieved. I want to get a coach that will make his old school cry when he signs here.

 

[BigZiti09]

You're way off on Brohm. I get you're upset, we all are, but Brohm is a helluva coach. So is Morris.

Just frustrated man. We’ve ruined it.

 

[awaitingawin]

Bring me Lane and let's ride. I'd rather blow up in a blaze of glory than slowly simmer. Let's take everyone down with us. I'm on the lane train boys

No Lane 88....a hacker has taken over your account...

What in the world is our idiotic administration waiting on? Before Sunday I would have said no, but after Sunday and yesterday, it’s a homerun considering our circumstances.

Can you imagine the conversation between Currie and Brohm.

I wanted Mullen, but that didn't work out.

Um, I wanted Schiano, but that didn't work out.

I wanted Cut, but that didn't work out.

I wanted Gundy, but that didn't work out.

Will you come be the next coach at UT?

oh, PS, I am not in control.

So what do you say?

Brohm: "YOU'RE not in control? Sold."

 

[JacketVol]

Peyton and Phil have pushed Brohm hard.

Reading the tea leaves he may have been resistant at first but we may have come back with a better deal.

God I hope so anyway.

They are pushing him hard because Phil knows what he is doing. PM, not so much.

Our podium is the most used podium in all.of college athletics. We are the champions of two things, the podium and coaching searches.

Trot Brohm out, Let’s ride

[BigZiti09]

Hubbs said yesterday it would go to Brohm and Morris if Gundy turned it down.

Hubbs still the best.

 

[SeanJean]

Point blank: If they could get Steele here with Tee as the OC and coach in waiting, it would be a great deal, and we would straight. up. get. players. We need players and recruiters. Those guys get players.

 

[LA Vol]

1) Currie won't be fired.

2) Hoke doesn't want to be here.

3) If you talk him into staying, half the staff hates him and will revolt.

4) the players hate him.

5) we're not going to suddenly get better at coaching searches in a year.

1) Currie will leave on his own as soon as he can.

2) Where's he going to go?

3) The staff hates everything right now.

4) The players hate everything right now.

5) We're toxic sludge right now. Nobody wants to wade into this pit of toxicity. If things aren't better in a year, the program is going to be down for a long, long time.
