Their QB coach tweeted this






The only part of all of that stuff that would come aross to me as anything other than college football assistant coaching normality would be recruiting a kid to another school while you were supposed to be doing it for your school (and a coach there). That would be some shady shite.

Everything else (timing, trips, communication) is well within norms of assistant coaches leaving and has happened to us 100x. Hell, we deal with that stuff on an even bigger level because most of the time our assistants are leaving for a HC gig and trying to take MORE of our coaches with them.

Yeast, a legacy recruit, decommitted around the same time when Marrow made this comment:

Last night, the UK Football coaching staff was dealt a blow when 2017 WR/CB Russ Yeast decommitted. Coming on the heels of Mac Jones' decommitment last week, the announcement was discouraging, especially since Yeast is a legacy recruit. On this morning's show, recruiting coordinator Vince Marrow was asked how the staff deals with decommitments, and while he was unable to speak about specific recruits, he gave a pretty interesting answer. "I think kids, sometimes they commit, they come to a school, they commit, they fall in love with the coaching staff, the university, and then they go back home and that's what their choice is, but then, in this time and day, you get a lot of people in the guys' ears, whether they got relatives that went to Michigan or cousins at Michigan State, and they way we've been recruiting in Toledo, which is a Big 10 area, we've took a lot -- I don't know the number of kids we took out of Ohio -- now, we start to get bombarded from a lot of other schools just teaming in on us." "I tell kids, if they're unsure -- and this actually comes from Coach Stoops -- if they're unsure, then don't commit. But when they actually committed to us and they start wavering a little bit, instead of going and visiting all these schools and have our name attached to it, you probably need to decommit because that's something Coach Stoops won't stand for."


I don't see anything there questioning Mac Jones himself. Just simply saying they tell kids if they don't want to be at UK, don't commit. And if you're waivering, at least have the decency to decommit so Kentucky can continue recruiting that position.

I don't see anything wrong with saying that.

And y’all did this same shite with Derek Ansley.


I mean, nobody's thrilled to lose an assistant to someone in conference but I don't know anyone that called him a POS over it. Sorry no one pumped sunshine up your arse over the hire.

What does any of this have to do with Harsin and Auburn?
