‘23 CA QB Nicholaus Iamaleava (Tennessee)

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

Let me help you: "sorry guys, I was wrong".

Wrong about what? I stated the extent of his value in bringing in recruits ( signed recruits) is TBD and it still is.

You can keep repeating it until you're blue in the face, doesn't mean it's ever going to make it so.

Same with you. Different opinions/that is all we have here.

Facts remain the same.

 

[ABINGDON VOL FAN]

I think it is clear to everyone that you will repeat the same point over and over. The question is why? Do you think no one heard you? As you point out, we won't know until signing day.

I am responding to people who continue to question my opinions. I am Ok if they stop the replies to me.

I think the problem with Arch is there are not much offenses left that can get away with having an immobile QB[/QUOTE
Wonder why Nick and Kirby wants him? I think the problem is that he's not interested in Tenn.

Stupid hill to die on in everyone's opinion

Then stop replying to my posts. If someone takes a counter position to my posts then my replies may continue. If they stop I’m will certainly be fine with that and actually would prefer that to happen.

getting ball out of your hands quickly begets a lot of that. Looks at the Pats.

Arch's Dad was a WR, his grandad a mobile QB. We dont know if he's fast or slow.

Thing is, I'm not the only one saying it, not ONLY my opinion. There's me, and those of VN who know recruiting...let's see, there's the players themselves, they agree with me, as proven by the countless times they have said it in interviews...Price, Hubbs, Wiltfong, Simmons, VQ, 247, Rivals, On3, and your local Herald all agree with me and the rest of us who CLEARLY see the massive impact Nico is having in recruiting.

Again, not his job to close. His job...he's doing in spades. In reality, the Nico impact has recruiting looking as good as we have ever known it, regardless of who ends up signing with us or elsewhere.

He's helping. Been stated by people who would know. Your metric of "signed" is likely impossible to prove, so you'll still be able to argue this after the class is signed. Should make you happy.

I don’t care how many people disagree with me. the criticism of me is misguided. I did not ever state that Nico did not have influence. The original post I made after Kasper committed to Oregon was Nico’s influence was to be determined in actually getting high caliber talent to commit here (meaning signed). The people criticizing me keep talking about Nico influencing recruits to look at TN. That was not the intent of my initial post put many are moving the goalposts of that original post I made on the topic. How long is it going to take for you to get it your thick skulls most of you have or is it your lives are so boring that you manufacture or alter the intent of some posts so you can sit there and pick at fellow VN members relentlessly for days and weeks.

That was my intent if my original post in reference to Kasper committing to Oregon. Many of here distorted the intent of my post.

Stop replying on my posts and I will be happy to stop having to reply to this idiotic complaints thrown at me the last week or so.

See, im going to have to go ahead and disagree with you on that, as well. What you call a thick skull or boredom...most call it, dumbsh!t comment getting well deserved response.

Oh, I don’t really care, I just wanted to use that gif. I don’t think I offered up a complaint. The best way to stop it, is not respond. You’re doing the same thing you’re accusing everyone else of doing, responding. I don’t see anyone twisting your arm to ‘have’ to respond., unless frank has a backroom where he has a bunch of ‘Good Fellas’ to make you do something. Oh, don’t respond to me so I don’t feel like I have to respond to you.

How dare you speak of the VN backroom!

How dare you speak of the VN backroom!

It’s been rumored for years, we now have evidence.

 

[SonOfGodVolforlife]

It's hilarious to see the reaction of our fanbase to an individual who has been vastly more successful and could have retired very comfortable years ago. Cam has a 7v7 team that he pours into so I don't get the vitriol people are sending when he's trying to tell a kid to remember to be himself and do what's best for himself.

Can newton gets a lot of criticism but the dude was an absolute stud in college, and in the nfl when he was in his prime he was an absolute force, the dude almost changed the way teams looked at qbs, now unfortunately for him cam he couldn’t sustain that level of success but honestly nobody really can.. most players have about 3-7 prime years in their careers, I for one choose to remember cam for those years with the panthers where the dude was unstoppable.
I hope he gives nico tons of advice.

I think what everyone is saying is Nico is doing his part, he’s getting kids interested and getting them to visit. Heupel and the staff have to close the deal at that point. I do think it’s attractive for a lot of offensive kids to play with a QB like Nico as well but I don’t think it’s the only factor.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

nope. Trevor Lawrence was deceptive due to those long strides. He was also more quick twitch than most give him credit for.

I think Nico has a similar long stride running style as Lawrence did.

 

[turnuptheVOLtage]

Arch has a chance to be a very good player but Nico definitely fits what Heupel does much better. That’s not a knock on Arch or a praise for Nico it’s just true. Both can be really good.

Nico is the #1 QB and the money speaks… + Sabans salty comments

I understand that I agree with that from the beginning. It’s the VN members who are lazily missing the original intent of my post.

Also if the subsequent information is true regarding Kasper then the NIL likely is factor #1 over Nico when a high rated recruit decides to commit to us or not.
