Recruiting Forum Talk XXXIX

[Aesius]

It really sucks that this is happening with the first early signing period. If we do go after Frost, he probably would not start until January or late December at best.

He would leave for Knoxville the day after UCF's last regular season game.

You don't jeopardize your new job by sticking around at your old job. The only way he stays at UCF is if they make the playoffs, and we would need absolute chaos for that to happen.

Very very few of us know information of substance. Surely that's obvious by now. It's fun to talk about Gruden and Frost and to hear all the rumors. But honestly, is anybody trustworthy?

Currie is a professional and will handle the negotiations at his own pace and with the best interests of the school in mind. Lots of legal and contractual concerns come with firing and hiring coaches. LWS or Boro or DTO have no clue about the timeline or contractual details. They may hear a snippet of worthwhile information but all of it is second or third hand and not to be trusted.

Sit back and enjoy the coaching change. Jones will be gone when Currie is able to make it happen. That much is clear.

Show up for the vol walk but stand outside the stadium?

Mass walkout at end of first quarter with a fire Butch chant. Then everyone come back and support the players?

 

[Ace]

Ill do my part. Ive got two LSU tickets. Those two seats will definately be empty.

They bout to F up and bite the hands that feed.

But you already paid for them. That is all that counts

If he's still here after KY then Currie is giving the Gaulden to the fans.

Sorry man but if he’s here Monday afternoon I feel this way.


He has to go

I would take kiffin back over frost

What QB would've looked good with the playcalling like that today? In their second game and no play calls to account for the backside blitz. Tell me what QB with these trash play calls..... Showing heart and not quitting in a game like that answer any and all character questions you all had. One turnover in a desperation pass is fine with me. Call better plays and he'll look better. He's not scared and is tough. Fine for young QB in his second game taking on the best team in the country.

He's definitely not scared and gives it everything he's got... no arguing that. But he is not going to improve from year two to year three for people to say he has "it"...
And Dobbs, and anyone else with legs (shea patterson, Nick Fitzgerald, even Hurts) could have looked better. Yes the play calling was horrible and the O line was horrible.

Penn State looks awesome. Very well coached and they play with an edge. I'd kill to be on that level again.

Right. Sunk cost fallacy.

Meanwhile, the players lose confidence and the distraction could cause the team to lose games that could be won with changes made by an interim. We should beat UK, but the uncertainty and negativity around CBJ could precipitate a loss.

But who knows? He could want out and they could come to an agreement.

Behavioral economics? Talk dirty to me...

 

[LA Vol]

Think if KY was a home game, he'd be gone. If he's still here after KY, and we lose, there's liable to be 50K for that game.

They're counting on homecoming bringing in alums. They might not be counting on the sour mood of those alums. I could see him being let go before LSU. The wild card is-- I think he's had enough and wants out. His reputation and marketability are taking a beating.

It will be interesting to see what the next week holds.

Boro and DTO are full of absolute doo doo.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Belichek had Brady
Phil Jackson had Jordan
Popavich had Tim Duncan

I've never understood that argument

It’s a dumb argument. Mullen is a great coach and can’t win a natty at Mississippi State. I’ll take Mullen and call it a day. Now.

 

[volinbama256]

He's been playing more and has a better playcaller stop the madness.

Oh and they scored 3 points versus Bama. Have fun with that comparison bud.....

wait.. that's easy--- our offense never scored a point. Did you even watch the game? There are half a dozen QB's out there who JG couldn't hold a candle to and they are freshmen or sophomores...

 

[InVOLuntary]

Probably not a stretch.

 

[Hammer85]

Na, I didnt. But there will either be 2 empty seats OR two more LSU fans if I can find some.

Dont matter to me. UTAD DGAF. Neither do I.

I wanted franklin bad after we fired Dooley.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

But maybe an interim can put a spark in this team and at least give us something to pull for. Let's salvage a winning record out of this disaster of a season -- we've got the talent.

I thought the same thing, but someone told me that apparently the assistant coaches do not get along at all, which is causing a lot of toxicity in the locker room as well. He thinks Butch will stay through the Kentucky game, because they may actually have a better chance of winning with Butch than without him.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Frost seems really the only acceptable candidate out of Norvell, Durkin, and Brohm. And frost isn't a sure thing

 

[JCP201]

People have battered wife syndrome over this guy. He has never won as a head coach, and he basically gave us the Gaulden for USC. EDIT: and he's the reason our program is in the shape that it is right now.

Does he want to hear it all weekend from the alums? Also, I'm convinced Butch wants out. He wanted out last year. Should have been out last year. If your hearts not in it you're going to suck. That's why we suck.

[Boston Vol]

According to LWS list is:
Frost
Norvell
Durkhin
Brohm

Out of those, I'd take Frost all day.

If that’s the list, then we’ve fallen even further than I thought. That list is an absolute joke.

None of those are acceptable.
