Walter Nolen question

Like Cade Mays?

Missed where Cade Mays wasn’t committed to us for almost two years before an epic losing season and coaching change.

 

[Sarms58]

Will he decide to come home?

He's getting some playing time so it's hard to tell. But if A&M should fire Jimbo there will be a wild scramble to sign about 10 five star plays who have 2-3 years left to play.

Sometimes a change of environment changes the kid. For instance Bru McCoy said coming to Tennessee was the best decision he could have made.

Cept Bru’s work ethic was never in question…dating back to high school.

Jimbo’s buyout is over $80 million…he’s not going anywhere

Like Ed Orgeron said, "What time do you want me to leave, and what door do you want me to walk out of?"

Who cares. The young man picked Texas A & M. Don’t care either way. Rodney Gardner makes men out of boys. Not sure he wanted to be coached like Mr Gardner coaches.

 

[DeerPark12]

My question is, how much is he being paid by A&M in NIL money and can he get out of it?

Most of those deals have stipulations on them that require a player to make personal appearances, or at least be available to sign autographs, it’s not a straight cash transaction. So as soon as he wasn’t present at one of those deals, his money would be cut off anyway.

 

[Volfan1000]

Is it really? Or is this a tongue-in-cheek reference to coaching search rumors of the past? Lol I never know with our fanbase....and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I think that Fisher gets one more season at Texas A&M because of his hefty buyout figure.

 

[NighthawkVol]

Its funny I think that every year. Even this year, LSU was breaking in a new coach had an exodus of players...but it looks like they are the second best team in the West. Ole Miss, they happened to luck into Matt Corral...Arkansas previously had a bad prior season, but were good when we played them. We seems to end up with the number 1 and 2 team in the West every year. Not sure how it happens.

It's not just you. There was some stat about how Tennessee's rotating West team was ranked in the top 10 or 15 X number of years in a row. Can't remember exactly.

 

[Rocky Top T]

He had his chance!

 

[Vollifer1949]

his younger brother to same as him!

What’s his brothers name?

 

[butchna]

What’s his brothers name?

Warren

You would have to be a complete moron to give a coach a contract like that! Oh wait!

 

[Smokeyone]

Didn’t he transfer into Tennessee as a highschooler? Tennessee isn’t home for him I believe.

 

[ITSGR82BATNVOL]

Will he decide to come home?

He wasn't a RG priority the first time around, what on earth makes you think he would be in the future? He fits in nicely with his current team. Overrated and under performing.

Yes, he was.

 

[tennesseeduke]

Darn what?

Skippy

 

[tennesseeduke]

A&M NIL money are not attached. NIL money comes from other sources and not a school.

I never advocated for a return, just asked a question

Smoking weed in the locker room.

Key Texas A&M Players Suspended For Smoking Weed In Locker Room

I don’t believe this for a second. This is cover for something else. Rumor I heard is the players were talking about entering the transfer portal and trying to get other players from the freshman class to join them.

His buyout is hefty for the next 6-7 years.

 

[VolfromBirth65]

Will he decide to come home?

DON'T WANT

 

[livefaith]

Talk to an actual doctor if you believe this nonsense

RV, surely you didn't expect blue font.

 

[tnvols106]

It would fit with his pattern that he transfer after the season.

He went to Olive Branch, then IMG Academy for a bit, then St. Benedict, then Powell during his high school career.

Sounds more Diva than Jalen Hurd.

 

[lexkyvol]

Did Cade Mays show up after we got good again? hmmmm
