'22 TN ATH/RB Dallan Hayden (Ohio State commit)

[RiseToTheTop]

Yep..........There are still reasons coaches can negative recruit UT.

One of the most well known negative recruiters against us is Mark Stoops and his staff. So lets just beat their ass today!

 

[ACvol3]

I know you referenced the investigation. I just said there are other reasons.

The word other means: denoting a person or thing that is different or distinct from one already mentioned or known about.

Well no sht… a lot of coaches negative recruit a lot of programs. We were talking about the investigation

I can't wait till the best Tennessee HS players actually care about being Tennesseans again. This sucks and I am sick of it.

This kid has to look at this offense and know he would rack up a million yards, but he would rather go play follow the crowd.

and I said other. So I wasn't negating your statement

Committed to OSU in June......We have now shown him and others what UT can be capable of....Hayden and others in state are at least letting UT throw them a bone to knaw on !
Patience....

I mean the previous staff wasn’t recruiting him…. So it’s not really his fault or the current staffs fault

I know that...it just makes me want to puke.

I get it. It sucks more for the kid because I’m sure he was sitting there waiting for the previous staff to recruit him and they didn’t and then he had to find a home…. So he did that. Imagine his shoes….

Dallan Hayden was at the Tennessee baseball orange and white game today with his family. Was sitting on the same row as our baseball team.

This is just another Pruitt fail

Did anyone watch him last night vs. Catholic? Any impressions?

He good

Beast. May be a lost cause, but I would put a lot of resources in going for a flip here.

Why would you not want to play in this offense?

I don’t get it either.

Runs really hard. I didnt see him get tackled for loss and falls forward and fast. Broke two long runs.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Why would you not want to play in this offense?

Kids are simple. They just want to win. He sees OSU winning the Big 10 practically every year. We have to do something to change his mind. I can’t blame him for taking the easy route.

 

[ALStateLineVol]

Why would you not want to play in this offense?

He went to a game a couple weeks ago and now it's being said he was at the TN baseball game yesterday. Maybe it's nothing but I think a lot of the recruits are seeing what our product on the field is like and starting to take more interest. I think he wanted to lock up his position with OSU to have a spot and keep an eye out for what TN might do. I guess with the position TN is in, a lot of the higher rated recruits know we would take them later should they want in. Just my two cents.
Go Vols!!

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Why would you not want to play in this offense?

To be fair, OSU has a very explosive offense. We can thank Pruitt for this loss.

I think Pruitt screwed us here. Heupel likely doesn’t have the time to build the relationships necessary.

Heupel has known the family going back to Chase Hayden's recruitment. The fact that Dallan showed up at the Ole Miss game is a start, but they got to get him back if he's a legitimate flip candidate. Pruitt did screw this up by not offering him at running back. Pruitt was so terrible.

Pay the highest NIL and he is a VOL

Pay the highest NIL and he is a VOL

not sure he's worth that

Just go with it. It sounds good and money isn’t coming out of your pocket
