'20 TX RB Zachary Evans

[m1al]

He has the 11th ranked class in the SEC…

OK.. Class ain't done yet. Over his history though, I would say he's been an above average recruiter. He also seems to attract talented players at the most important position on the field...

I don't like the guy but I'm not going to let that blind me to what he's capable of.

 

[m1al]

He’s peaked at Ole Miss. Had a Heisman contender at QB and needed help to beat a depleted Heupel team in year 1. He’s done.

Then he won't be there much longer and won't sniff another P5 job then, right?

 

[jave36]

Tennessee should not lose rakroots to Ole Miss, Kiffin aside

Closer to home, better record, bigger spotlight, at least equal offense. That's hard to beat at the moment.

He could win 6 to 9 games per year at OM and stay there as long as he wants probably, but I don’t see him doing any better than he did this year and I don’t see him moving up

What we really need is to ensure our OL is good next year m. Evans said he want a good OL and a good NIL deal.

We need the OL either way so it would be nice to pull a good OT and OG from the portal to potentially start right away unless they feel really confident with what we have.

2022 Lane Kiffin = 2021 Dan Mullen.
Lane had his shot. Had a Heisman-level QB, the SEC West was as weak as it's been in a decade, and they couldn't make it to Atlanta. Ole Miss has never been to Atlanta, and this was as good of a shot as Lane's ever going to have in Oxford.

Or he starts to look at OU with Lebby.

Maybe. Seems more risky given the uncertainty of OU with a new coach.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I feel confident if we took up a collection on VN we could probably drop off a 10k bag.

If 10k was really all it took to get Evans, I will gladly put it up myself.

Is Lebby to OU confirmed or speculation or what? Seems weird that he'd take another OC position. I figured people would start to look at him for HC like maybe Louisiana

Already promoted their OC.

Wow. That's wild to me. Poor Kiffin hehe

When has he ever stolen a recruit from us? Our facilities are better. Our coaches are better. And our boosters are better... they are just quiet about it

He hasn't exactly been recruiting against us either, but I'm sure he had his share while at Bama and will get his share now. Runs similar offense, coached here( no telling what he would say), has a top 10 team, beat us (despite the reason), and we have sanctions hanging over us. On top of that, Kiffin is very appealing to kids.

Adoree Jackson and had him play us....

Not sure what me saying that you and my Dad both had the same description of BKs car has to do with my Dads car. He was the Sales Manager at a VW dealership and drove a Karmann Ghia. But anyway.......

misread your post....

I believe he is having trouble with people believing he is long term there. The extension probably helps but he doesn’t help himself when people know he wants the Big Spotlight job so bad

NOW,NOW, you finally realize it is the MONEY.

I said IF. Since it’s not all about the money it’s a moot point.

I guess, but the listening to you talk isn’t so much.

Lebby should take Oklahoma job. He needs to get out from underneath shadows and prove to world his impact. He has been underneath prolific offensive minds at each stops besides his year at NAIA after the Baylor scandal. Art and Kendal, Frost, Heupel and now Kiffin. He wont be able to get everyone’s buy in on his impact at those stops until he shows what he can do with no overhead

The right people know how good Lebby is.
Average joe fan may not...

The boosters giving the money for coaching hires are an average Joe fan with money
