'22 TN DT Walter Nolen (Ole Miss)

[tnvolfan16]

It may just be he is asking for a ridiculous amount moreso than the coaches not wanting him.

it is times like this where the collective needs to show they are as strong as everyone claims they are

 

[KptVFL]

So why did the coaches say thanks but no thanks?

Are the coaches lying?

Did they? I haven't gotten a call back.

Have never seen 1 statement from the staff saying any of this. Wouldn't expect them too but all we have is handed down gossip.

 

[Frankwillie87]

That was 2 years ago though.

Sure, I was just answering about the source of the rumors not being the way he handled his recruitment. Make of it what you will.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I don’t have to back anything up.

He’s not coming here and the coaches feel he’s not worth the risk.

Obviously something had to go down if the staff isn’t pushing hard for a 5* DL.

Typical for you. This staff can do no wrong in your eyes.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Do they? I haven't gotten a call back.

That’s all @VolFreakJosh deals in. He just makes assumptions with zero credibility.

There’s your credibility.

More typical out of you. Looks like your boy Willie is coming back. I am sure you are one of the only fans excited about that.

Guarantee we won’t see you in the Seaton thread tomorrow when he commits to us, considering you’ve bad mouthed Spyre the entire time.

Don’t want to hear another word from you on how bad our collective is and that we don’t “overpay” for recruits.

 

[VolFanNC09]

He is easily one of the best DL available. Not sure if he really wants to come here, but if he did I trust CRG to coach him hard like everyone else. I am hoping he comes here, but not expecting it.

If he really is asking for 7 figures though, I wouldn’t do it. This isn’t a position of need for us right now and I would rather spend on a really good CB and a Safety on D and a OL or two as well as a TE on O.

I hope we get Seaton, but based off of recent history of missing on big time recruits, I'm not holding my breath.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

I’m told his asking price is into the high 6 figures to low 7 figures per season

Yeah right. Wish in one hand and crap in the other, and see which one fills up faster.

 

[StoneColdStunner]

He didn’t transfer anywhere. He committed to TAMU. This is his first transfer.

He is talking about after he transfers to another school. Once he does, he'll have to sit out a year if he wants to transfer out again, so he'll be more likely to stay in line.

Does the free transfer if your coach is fired not apply to 1st transfer? Meaning would a 2nd transfer count as his 1st?

Man you know there’s over 100 other D1 schools you could go be miserable for right?

 

[Stacmot]

This is my opinion on the kid. He played at how many different high schools? Was said that he took plays off, and had a bad attitude. Rumored that he shopped around his recruitment and screwed us coming out of high school. Watching him act like a little sissy playing against us this year made my day. No heart! Was getting his feelings hurt and he quit! I don’t think this kid could handle CRG. He has all the talent in the world, no heart, bad attitude and a me,me,me mentality IMO.

 

[JT3]

Russell Smith just commented on it just now. He heard last week they reached out to our camp and we had already said thanks but no thanks.

Who is Russell Smith? Never heard of the guy before.

 

[Adam Sandler]

You talk to yourself?

Lol. You must be a sports animal guy.

Does the free transfer if your coach is fired not apply to 1st transfer? Meaning would a 2nd transfer count as his 1st?

No, 1st transfer is all any kids gets that's free. If the HC is fired a kid would have 30 days to enter the portal if they like. Basically, they wouldn't have to wait until the portal window to enter.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Ah you know on second thought, we don’t need the #1 ranked player in the transfer portal. I am sure Nolen is a much better “culture” for Bama.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I will be sure to take your advice under strict advisement.

When have we been cheap when it came to NIL?

Omg wth did I miss? I really thought we could get rid of our dB coach who literally coaches soft zone coverage on every one and hey let's forget to never turn our head and look for the ball. Shoot me now if he stays

You think soft zone coverages are WM’s call?

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

Or that defensive backs should "turn their head" like Regan?
