Recruiting Football Talk VII

[tnvols72]

He basically says we lose because Milton.

I agree. How can Milton go from looking pretty good in mop up duty last year and had a decent game against Andy and looked pretty good against Clemson and has had all spring and summer and fall to build off of that and looks worse than he did when he started his 1st 2 games at Tn. I think our WRs are dropping passes (Keyton) because they are surprised when the ball is actually delivered where its suppose to be. Most of Miltons passes are either too long or behind them or trying to catch a 100 mph throw 5 yards away. He has no touch on his throws. It just blows my mind that he is getting worse and not better.

It was #3 Jackson. Poor fella. Look what their dietary department is doing to them.

Or was it the male cheerleaders?

James Pearce Jr graded out at 92.2 in pff against A&M which is the best grade we have seen under Heupel. Even better than Hyatt against Bama last year.

Curiously when you look at the snap count Roman Harrison had four more snaps than James Pearce Jr. 38 to 34 respectively. Roman graded out at only 63.7. Dominic Bailey played 35 to JPjr's 34 and graded out at 60.5

Ummm that cannot happen Saturday. You need to keep JPjr on the field as much as possible. I'm watching the replay and it's pretty easy to notice when he's not on the field. On A&M's field goal drive he did not set foot on the field until the the final play of the drive where....he got a sack and ended the drive. He didn't even start at the beginning of the 3rd quarter.

Keep JPjr on the damn field guys.

Thinking there just trying to keep him fresh. He gives it 100% ever play he's out there. GBO

 

[UT = Checkmate]

Joe Milton may not set the world on fire Saturday..but I fully expect him not to have another 100 yd passing game... Squirrel needs to be more involved, Ramel needs to catch the damn ball and Thornton well nevermind...Jaylen , Jabari and Sampson gets 200 plus....I know its By *** Alabama and have all these composite 5 stars ...but they can be beat and will be defeated...Vols 24-14....MilRoe get ready to eat turf .....Go Vols...

At this point Keaton should be moved around to get him going.

...it's Keyton. I agree. He should be moved to the bench. Maybe that will motivate him to catch the damn ball if he ever sees the field again.

Geez... who would have thought at the beginning of the season with all the media hype this list would like this going into the Alabama game... Joe has to step up and start getting it done and our WR's need to show up.

There are no great QB's in the SEC this year, and the top of this conference is perhaps the weakest it has been in about 15 years.

The Beamer and Dooley sideline comparison photos will be fun.

I wonder if it was a bucket of lightbulbs.

[tnhunter 10]

So the “better” team lost to the “overrated” team?…

Lol we should have won that game by at least 3 scores, but ok.

Or at least we hope that was mayo in the jar.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Define "Team"? Obviously Team to this clown is star-rankings, media opinion of coaches etc. UT's "Team" has a better Defensive Scheme, the ability to adjust the Offensive scheme to fit talent, situations, etc. , Coaches who are ball coaches and not the product of media hype, players who, even if they don't always play to the best of their ability, play hard and keep grinding.

I believe ppl are calling TN overrated because we're not scoring 40 pts a game. This TEAM is different and find other ways to win. Ppl always said we're am Air raid team, but we've never been an air raid team. It's always been balanced and the passing alhas always gone as far as the running game.

Jaylen Wright is at 571yds. On pace for 1000yd season.

His career rushing is at 1855. Another 500yds would also put him in Top 10 all time.

If he stays another season and puts up another 1k.... he'd pass Travis Henry for #1 in Vols career rushing history.

Best QB season in Vol history

Best WR season in Vol history

Here comes Pearce vying for best DE season in Vol history

And then we have rushers who could lead the all-time leaderboard by Y4.

All by lil ole Josh Meheupel, folks.

I agree, if the same Milton trots out that we've seen so many times already. The WRs could really help him a lot. They make the tough catches and no telling how much it affects his confidence. Milton is good when he gets a rhythm and has more confidence, like vs Clemson. Fingers crossed our WRs pull their head out of their arse before Saturday.

Has Milton gotten into a rhythm at all this year?

If he truly is a professor, I admit I don't expect Professors to talk that way. Also, why such hatred? They've beaten us almost every year this century.

The old timers get it. ANY loss to your most hated rival is terrible.

They also know they're on the decline and we're on the machine with an incline at a 10.

luginbill is possibly one of the worst so called recruiting gurus there is. He is pitiful and every time he opens his mouth I would like to throat punch him. He is nothing but a big school kiss ass for bama ga etc. He very seldom even talks about recruits for any other schools.

Could be huge.

Jayden or Rattler would have been an easy pick, so no surpise there at all. Dart too.

Mertz and Cook, yup surprising...but there's also few really good QBs in the sec this year too.

If anything it's good for us. If we were facing a Bryce Young Bama team, we'd be dead this season. The poor QB play league-wide makes our situation less painful.
