Title: Anyone really worried about this early signing period? I see the Vols are
Post by: volsboy on December 20, 2017, 05:20:19 EST
piling up the three star recruits today. Actually just three early signees so far today.  Hopefully the recruits come around for the Feb signing period. I hope there are not too many early signees anywhere in the country. Gives us a chance to get after them. Well crap, looking at some recruiting sites, the Buckeyes have 15 signed today, Bama has 17, Miami 11, UGa 10. Of UGa's 10 so far, 8 of them are either 4* or 5*. I am surprised there have been so many early signees. I guess the kids wanted to get it over with. Plus it allows the schools to put more efforts in getting the ones who haven't signed yet for the Feb signing day. It's kinda scary we only have three so far according to GOVOLS.Com.

Thanks man. You are so awesome. Such a realist. A champion of life. A great #VFL who gives their all. Why does E.V.E.R.Y. S.I.N.G.L.E. one of your posts feel like the work of a troll? "We" are aware that things are not ideal. Thank you for your insight Captain Obvious! "We" need more fans like YOU! Kinda like who needs enemies with friends like you, champ!  :thumbup:

Fire Pruitt, look at those final four and top ten teams, they have blown him away in the early signing period.  

Wish I took the under on your first coach/staff disparaging post.

As opposed to fans like you who made excuses for Jones ineptness for 5 years, which has led to the situation the program is now. I just go by what I see on the field, which showed Jones was not a good coach. Yet many just kept giving him free passes. Now it is just going to take a while to get the the ship righted. I think Pruitt will give it a better run than Jones did. Hopefully he can get the 4 and 5* recruits on board. If he doesn't, it's hard to expect him to beat teams like UGa and Bama that are getting a lot of 4 and 5* recruits. :bow:

I didn't mean for it to sound disparaging. My point was that I was surprised so many kids were using the early signing period to sign. It is not Pruitts fault. I was just hoping there wouldn't be so many signing early  so he could get a shot at them in Feb. I think he will do fine. But this early signing period doesn't give him a fair shot. Out of 8 early signees for the Vols, 6 are 3*.

Georgia has underachieved for years. I'll believe that is done when I see it for a while. More than just THIS year. Bama is Bama for now. They will at some point take a dip no matter how temporary. Nice gets with Jerome Carven & Jeremy Banks. Amirite? If the coaches like JT Shrout, I do too. They told the one qb to git. Not sure they didn't encourage Martinez as well. Idk & I don't care.  :powert:

As they said on ESPN yesterday.....Judge Pruitt more come the Feb signing date because he basically had 1 week and a weekend to recruit.

I wasn't trying to disparage Pruitt. He was just at an unfair advantage through no fault of his own. He will do fine. He has a lot of ground to make up considering what he has returning next year compared to UGa, Bama and Auburn. Who are all on the schedule. Take a breath.
