Recruiting Football Talk VII

[engineerVOL]

Pearce is a Monster…..

0:30, he read the snap perfectly. Cerebral player, elite speed, elite strength, rises to the occasion. Can cover, great instincts. What a gem.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

And a weekend of football ends on a completely botched call by the officials…. Imagine that.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

That was a clear PI on the Bills, bur whatever refs refuse to be consistent

I saw that. If you also watch I can’t remember the mark, but, he made the Right Tackle jump offsides lol and the didn’t call it.

I think that’s why they didn’t call it on that interception as well. They were trying to give that Right Tackle help lol

Was looking right at it.

 

[Jackcrevol]

He just had a very very bad game. all too often a player is open, and by time he decides it's to late. or a player on left side is going into his break, but he's decided on keyton on right side. who can't catch a cold.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

He's gonna cause a lot of false starts, imo

That’s why I don’t believe the refs were calling the false starts on A&Ms RT. Because Pearce was making him jump almost every other play.

They gotta reinstate challenges on PI at the very minimum. It’s only right for the game. Screw the commercials/advertisements. It’s an abomination what these officials are doing to this game.

A great DL makes the secondary issues disappear mostly

Correct. When Ohio St stalemated UGA’s DLine in the playoff semi’s, Marvin Harrison Jr. and company were torching their secondary. Still have to have guys that can cover but the DLine may be the single most important unit on the defense.

No, the refs weren’t calling false starts because they didn’t want to see Max Johnson hauled off in an ambulance.

 

[MemphisVol3]

As good as our defense has played, crazy enough it may and probably will be even better next year as the young talent continues to develop.

 

[Brillovol]

It was obvious after the first defensive drive we started dialing up the pressure. By the end of the game, Johnson was seeing ghosts. Huge props to Tim Banks for adjusting and outcoaching Bobby Petrino.

RIP (Rest In Pearce) opposing QBs.

 

[Brillovol]

Also, I don’t want to be critical of Halzle yet, but I think we miss Golesh. I know it’s more than that, but I’m not seeing as much creativity in play selection as last year.

Patiently waiting for improvement here.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Heading into 21 we all thought he would be the best receiver in the offense. He was just in his head/didn't work hard

Sure we didn't think he'd be running wide open all over the field, but Nimrod has not flashed the same speed or athleticism.

Average size, average athleticism.

Hyatt, Velus, Tillman and Bru all have great size, speed or athleticism.

Nimrod could be good, but I just don't see him being a gamebreaker because of his physical ability. He may become great at route running. I'll hold out hope for that. Otherwise he's no different than Holiday, Callaway or Merril.

Your description of Nimrod sounds kinda like reports on J Jennings…

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

Hell they didn’t call the one on atm when we got the first pick at the end. Here’s screenshots, but watch it in motion and it’s blatantly obvious.

I’m convinced the referee system is broken.

We were yelling false start in the stands and then we shut up after the interception. I looked at the guy in front of me and said "Glad they missed that call!"

Gah that Joe Milton - video just upsets me.

 

[Vol423]

That explains it.

 

[berryvol]

Who would ya'll rather beat this year, Georgia at home or Bama on the road to start a streak against Lil Nicky?

For me, it's Georgia easily. Would be giant killers two years in a row.

Bama. It’s always been Bama and will always be Bama. Not even a convo.

 

[SpringBokVol]

A couple things to close out the weekend and move on to Bama week.

Spooky Rocky Top is amazing and needs to be a regular part of the show.

I believe our D line will take advantage of Bama O line early and often. If Milroe gets time or scrambles they will be hard to beat. The worst thing that could happen to us is Bama gets up early - like 20 points and we abandon the run and try catch up with Joe passing. Recipe for disaster.

I don’t love our play calling at times. Really hate the predictable run up the middle for no gain. Especially after a chunk play. Just a waste of a down.

I am surprised the line is that high and that JP thinks it’s low. Not that I care but Vegas normally knows and I am guessing they don’t trust the Vols on the road.

But Bama day game is way different than Gators at night.

We shall see.

Excellent point. I’ve thought about posting something similar about Halzle. Milton hasn’t played well, but the WR’s are dropping balls and not consistently getting open and with Halzle 1st year being OC calling plays may have something to do with the WR’s not being open. Then again, it may be that Bru, Hyatt and Tillman were just better WR’s. The creativity of play calling has been lacking IMO.

 

[SSVol]

It doesn't matter what play you call if the QB and/or WRs don't execute. And as it's been stated on here a dozen times, pretty sure Heupel is calling the plays.

They schemed the best they could but he still got home and was disruptive even when he couldn't get the sack he affected plays and stayed in his lane/assignment.

 

[Orange.]

I was thinking about this… amd thinking about Joe finally doing some running… Coaches need to make Milton run a bunch more. It helps us win or he gets hurt and Nico plays. Win-win

F you for wishing Milton injured. You deserve to be banned. @Freak.
