Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Lloyd Christmas...lol
Hey...you're catching on. It's all comedy. Lloyd Christmas? Meant to be funny. Nick Shirley in an interview asking him legit yet still easy questions? Hilarious because he's obviously a low IQ individual. He's proof that any idiot with a camera can go viral and become famous these days.
 
JD Pickell brought up a great point when discussing Tennessee football. He said if we were entering this season with a known quarterback that the discussion would be how high in the top 10 we’re ranked. He then brought up the fact that every quarterback Josh Heupel has had was in his first year. Hendon Hooker was the exception by taking over most of 21 and starting all 22. Joe Milton one year. Nico…. Joey…. Outside of Hooker, every quarterback has had one year in the system and we’ve been tremendously successful. Why would this year be any different?
9 SEC games

I'd we played this schedule with Nico (which is likely the level of QB play we get) We are 8-4 at absolute best.
 
Because GMac doesn't seem to be capable of running it anywhere near well, and Faizon is a true freshman, while he will get better, the only reason this is a neck and neck QB competition is because GMac isn't where he should be.

Nico wasn't bad, but he was just slightly better than mediocre. I think Nico 24 production results are about the best we are going to get out of either of these guys..this year. I don't know if they can even do that..the 24 team had a cake schedule compared to this one.

We really needed a bridge QB this year. I am afraid that not getting one is going to cost Heupel big time. Our stupid fanbase will run him off for "not meeting their expectations" and ruin everything that the future holds.

Heupels offense (with legit QB play) plus Knowles defense (with a year more) is going to make us perennial contenders.
I believe these QBs will have more help around them than Nico did. We really had to rely on Sampson that year. I don't think Bishop is going to be the back that Sampson was but will still be quality. Staley and Matthews have already had more production than Bru or Thornton. TE should be better than 24 if Davis stays healthy. The line should be better at most positions besides C than 24. Our Defense won us most of our games in 24 despite the offense, so I'm hoping we can see some real improvement there. I think we will everywhere but d-line. That 24 defensive line was nasty and we only have one d-lineman listed over 300 lbs. in Gilliam. Was looking at the roster and looks like Gass packed on some weight and is now an edge

He's not great at speaking, but he's not a low IQ individual.

It won't matter if they can't read a defense.

My hope is they AT LEAST bit the open ones. So many tough matchups with several top tier QB's with way more experience. In a close game, typically the experienced guy wins.
 
Lol...my wife gets up at 4:30 every morning...she is in the living room right now carrying on with her mom like it's a party, she woke me up out of a dead sleep 15 minutes ago....I am slightly aggravated..😴
Mine has insomnia. 2am…3am…3:30 she’s waking me up to go get my cardio in with her at the gym🫪

Leavitt is recovering from injury and missed all of spring practice, but we play him at the end of the season so he'll probably be back to form by then. Manning will be the first good QB we play and he hasn't played well on the road. Reed at ATM is probably the next best and Elko is a good coach. Byrum Brown and Auburn with Golesh coaching is sneakily the offense I'm most worried about. Bama, Vandy, Kentucky, GA Tech all have new QBs so not really sure what to expect there. Arkansas starting QB has one start under his belt but they always play us hard. Will be an interesting year of football for sure. Don't think many SEC teams escape the regular season with less than 3 losses

You forgot going to USCjr and facing Sellers.

If our qb can't read a defense and isn't accurate then we are screwed.
