Decided to join up here for a full year

  • most know me on quest, information on quest kept saying TOS says during the search so i was like why not....and honestly I signed up here about a year ago but never to the paid portion.

    With the 30 days free it was a no brainer.

    Seems to be a little more grown up around here, and there is a good amount of activity now.

    Looking forward to it.

    here is some information that should make you guys feel better, some may or may not be aware but two of my better friends are high school coaches here in South Florida, believe me they are connected and I know a few other coaches pretty well.

    This info made me feel a lot better today.

    I spoke with my two buddies that coach high school ball down here in South Florida.

    They told me this, stopping worrying about his staff, they are hungry, at Cincy they knew they had to be the first to offer big time players, and 9 times out of 10 they were offering before the big schools, then the kid would blow up and want to play in the SEC.

    They said if they are able to keep that same drive at Tennessee you will have no worries. Just because they could not land the big 5 star kid doesn't mean they weren't recruiting him well before all the big schools were and the kids love Jones and his staff, they just weren't going to go to cincy over an Alabama, UF or LSU.

    I think this staff may surprise us some.

    I was on volquest for a minute, mostly during Kiffin era, and this poster is legit. If he says something, basically mark it down. Good to have you here man.

    I had some serious contacts during the Kiffin era from a Tennessee standpoint. One of them was a current ACC assistant coach.

    I too, am a member on TOS, but post very little over there. There's no comparison between the two. Brent and Co. have let so many people post whatever they want (flaming) without any repercussions. You'll see an off the wall post or poster every once in a while here, but the Mods or board will take care of it pronto. I really liked you as a poster over there and you'll bring a lot to this board as well.
