Did AU’s Taylor Use Ex-UT Wideout To Recruit For Auburn?

I'm as loyal as they come to the University of Tennessee. I came home from the hospital in a UT Onesey and Graduated from the hill in 2009. Honestly this is MALARKEY. I don't know how anyone could question Gerald Jones' dedication to the program after all he did on the field and leadership that he provided to a stumbling program through three head coaches and ultimately 4 football schemes in his playing time. As for Trooper Taylor unethical is not worthy in this case. There are things that happen in recruiting every year all over the country that are far worse than being resourceful. Trooper is a great football coach and as he has shown a more than capable recruiter. His on the field emotion and aggressiveness transpire into every player he coaches and that is something not everybody can has the ability to bring to a program. As for dogging Trooper guys come on look at what he did when he was in Knoxville we pounded the football and pounded out some running backs that is SEC Football and if you want to call somebody unethical talk about Ed Orgeron. The man wrote a book called "Meat Market". Personally with the staff we have in Knoxville now and the man (Derrick Dooley) working to keep it classy by monitoring his program, I think Trooper's emotion and coaching style is the missing element for this young team. Bring him back!!! GO BIG ORANGE!!!!

Trooper Taylor is garbage and so is auburn and Tennessee. Auburns NC was tainted and Tennessee sucks and will continue to suck its that simple. Auburn has already asked trooper to leave according to numerous sites because they know all the recruiting violations he has. He's been run out of every place and Auburn is the next one. He is a conniving, manipulative fool. Auburn is about to face serious NCAA investigations regarding the Kouandjio recruitment because of what they did and there is pictures to prove it. You may not believe this but i guarantee its true. They even told his parents not to come with him on his visit the weekend before signing day. Kouandjio's father already told sources he is going to reveal the case. I have alot of pleasure saying Auburn's future is very dark and i cant wait to see the probation they get.

shinman needs to find out the truth about TT's cap being worn backwards. It has to do with his father who has passed away.It takes a real low person to demean someone for doing something he doesn't like. This type of person thinks they are so much better than everyone else.You are a very stupid and full of yourself. War Damn Eagle rocky top boy.

AU wants kids to explore other schools and make sure AU is the place they want to come. Of course we wanted Wright, but if he had chosen UT, big deal..As for Wright, you want to know details on TT, cal a former player. No better source than that right....Relax folks

If the kid doesn't know Jones, then why would his recommendation of Taylor mean anything? "Hey, call this guy, he'll say nice stuff about me." Um, ok.

The only possibly relevant information for Wright in that call would be information relative to UT. Perhaps Taylor hoped Jones would dis the current regime, and perhaps Jones declined on that front. But the only reason Taylor put Wright in touch with Jones was the hope that Jones would have something negative to say about the direction of the program. That's fairly obvious.

I am glad Trooper is no longer here. He is such a guy looking out for himself however he can. A me guy not a school guy very much like Lane Kiffin.

I think the media is much more excited about this than the Vol fans.

Sorry, know not now.

I am a huge UT fan and I really see this as a nonissue. Of course Gerald had good things to say about both UT and Trooper. Folks here in Knoxville bring up Trooper's name anytime there is a coaching vacancy. Is it really any different than if a prized QB recruit called Peyton Manning and was asked about how he felt about Coach Cutcliff? I think we all now how that one would go.

Trooper Taylor? Unethical? Nooooooooooooooooooo
