Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Orange.]

Was that really a TAMU trial balloon? Or something Stoops' agent spread? Wouldn't some big boosters have had to have been behind a trial balloon? Who must have turned TAMU down to get to that point?

Ollie Lane appreciation post......

Watching the game on DVR. Missed most of this game because I had to work. Ollie is one of my favorites on this team, he just does what he asked to do. Not the most gifted guy but he has size and heart......I love that guy!

 

[Orange.]

Should be Elko…if they’re weary of overpaying everybody else’s success stories.

That makes some sense. I figured they hired Petrino to promote him.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Lmao at A&M

 

[peaygolf]

Sorry @peaygolf

That was a tough loss. Good season for the Govs though.

 

[Devo182]

Truf.

 

[UTK]

Lmao at A&M

lol I don’t believe that for a second. I think he was ready to bolt and A&M changed their mind due to backlash

 

[Memphisvol87]

lol I don’t believe that for a second. I think he was ready to bolt and A&M changed their mind due to backlash

Someone with money must have threatened to cancel a check once they heard it was stoops lol

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Lmao at A&M

Jimmy Sexton strikes again!

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

I expect a few of those back next year. Does participation for sure mean not coming back?

No

 

[JAL]

To sum up his head coaching career -- from tonight's post game presser.

I guess you can't afford to steal every team's signs.

GO MOCS!!!!!!

So can we get Walter Nolan in the portal please? We need a game changer DT. Combine that with our current DE’s and that will be scary good.

please note that I am not hinting that he is in the portal or has any intent. Just would be nice.

Will never happen. Walter and his people burned the bridge.

Also, on voluntary reaction, can't remember which one said it but apparently they reached to Tennessee and Tennessee said naw.

Florida State's DL is so freaking beast. I wish we could have got Verse. Don't get me wrong, we have our own dudes, but man he is something else

He would have gotten mauled and held just like our guys.

There is a better chance of Alabama beating Georgia and two SEC teams making the playoffs than zero teams making the playoffs. In no world will the NCAA allow both Georgia and Alabama to miss the playoff at 12-1 and lose all of that SEC money.

Here is another SEC flag waiver....
Everywhere on this board...

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Need Bama to beat UGA and have both be left out of the playoff

You can take this to the bank…Sankey will not allow it (and that is crazy to say since it’s Saban and Bama).

 

[knoxvol52]

Undefeated Michigan in Playoffs
Undefeated FSU in playoffs
Washington vs Oregon Winner in Playoffs...#4 vs #6 game Ray Charles could see this winner in...


Now to the good stuff...
Texas beats Oklahoma St.. which they should
Alabama beats Georgia....

Who is 4th team?

Should be Texas with head to head win over Bama...

This scenario should come true if FSU beats Louisville....
Committee isn't leaving a undefeated conference champion out...

To hell with the SEC if Tennessee isn't in it ...none of them should be...

 

[knoxvol52]

Sankey didn't have enough stroke to get Alabama in last season...
Even though Saban cried and whined on Selection Sunday....
Oh we're one of best 4 teams lol..please...

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

The funny thing is, it’s gonna be kinda awkward that Stoops was ready to bolt but got denied. What’s that energy gonna be like around that program now? Lol

Yeah there’s not that much smoke from all over the place without it being legit. The fanbase torpedoed the hire, and the AD gave in. UK will spin it that Stoops was never leaving, but everyone within that program will know different.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Lmao at A&M

And there goes the spin. If he was never leaving, he wouldn’t have felt the need to address it the way he did. Everyone in that program and fanbase knows he was out the door.

Yeah now it’s a matter of “when” not “if” IMO

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Are they trying to upstage us? Schiano Sunday ummm helllloooo.

Tennessee enters the chat

Wow I guess you are part of the tinfoil hat wearing cult.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Sucks Stoops is staying. Kinda wanted their DB, Hairston. Has 6ints this year.
