Recruiting Football Talk VII

[volbeast33]

1. The Giants absolutely suck.

2. Mahomes

Giants definitely suck and that hurts…. Mahomes played in an air raid offense…. that is considered a system offense though.

I know it's not have TN has chosen to do things, but I wish multiple SEC coaches would go scorched earth in the media.
Dorkwitz last week, Lane this week, Heupel next.
Jimbo could've earlier in the season.
Then at media days next year keep firing shots. Make it obvious to the media what's going on.

It would take a unified effort and coaches that aren't being victimized by it to call it out. Otherwise, the media will call it sour grapes and dismiss it. Basically, we need a bunch of respected people who rarely criticize officiating to all speak out. Easier said than done (the path to being called respectable is a helluva lot easier when you stay neutral on controversies).

He migrated over to VQ or some like place. Not sure why. My guess is as follows. He did say he was trying to post less. Started posting there occasionally to resist the urge to post here. And then got hooked, and is posting away where happenstance led him.

Just looked it up, he was pretty hot after the Purdue loss and got real upset at being told to calm down because he was question the lack of transfer portal news. I'm sure that's mostly just the "last discussion" more than the reason though.

The Purdue loss was Dec of 21.

You hit on it-- evidence that it is happening is not dependent on opinions on why it's happening. There are likely multiple reasons why it's happening, and anything left unchecked can veer out of control. People have biases-- explicit or implicit-- and when officials are allowed to indulge their biases with minimal repercussions and little accountability, they can behave with impunity.

Bingo!

If only there were a place, to discuss TN football recruiting.

That was my point, no one ran a more system offense than Leach and other AirRaiders. The two best qbs in the NFL one played in a "gimmick" offense and the other "had all the measurables" but was gamble. Mark my words Milton will be the next "measurables" guy.

Oh damn...just assumed when I saw his last post in December that's why, even more confusing then. Since we had just beaten Vandy and were preparing for our first NY 6 bowl appearance!

All would've made the list.

I am glad Dobbs did well, but I better not see anybody say how good Falcons defense is when they said last week how “overrated” falcons defense was. IYKYK ️

Haha. I’m a Levis hater but I didn’t join that discussion. My two cents though: Falcons defense isn’t as good as their ranking says but are still solid. They have played 6 offenses out of their 9 games that are average in the league or worse in total offense. Still though, they aren’t horrible because they have held 3 top 10 offenses to about their season average in points. So not bad, but not great and definitely not as good as their ranking says.

Still, 1st start with a struggling offense against a solid defense and Levis looked more than fine. Season high in points if I remember correctly. And I don't like saying that.

 

[rikberry31]

Never said i didn’t like him…. I agree he is a great OL coach…. you don’t have to want everyone fired or praise everything that every coach does… It’s ok to be concerned that we have two transfers….3 Pruitt recruits starting… we have no viable back up lineman that we’re recruited by this staff…. It will probably work it’s way out or it could negatively affect games like i

did this years Florida’s game.

Believe me we have linemen in the pipeline. OL and DL are developmental positions. They don't often step on the field as freshmen.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

So not even a “judgment call” live ball penalty then.

There was one illegal block in the back call on a WR...no OH calls on the OL despite them egregiously strangling, bearhugging, arm barring, tackling, grabbing, pulling...you get the point...on literally EVERY freaking passing play.

Bama expects to get away with anything because that's the precedent. Nothing sticks to them. They'll keep doing what they're doing until enough people get hurt and the SEC is forced to stop them. Bama and UGA are cash cows. Other teams could be, but it's harder to get there than to stay there, especially when facing unfavorable scheduling. It will be hard to dethrone Saban or Kirby, which has given UT a very difficult path. But not impossible with UT's resources.

UT knows it has to take what it wants on the field. Sankey only stood with UT at the NCAA hearing because it was self-serving. CJH, Barnes and TV have put the SEC on notice-- we're coming. The unified support across UT's marquee sports is no accident-- that's the plan.

I will say this though, I didn't always agree with Kingston's takes and he for sure seemed to enjoy the misery...

At least he held to the ban bet, unlike some folks with no honor that are banned from the basketball forum.

It is an absolute PERFECT system for abuse...there is zero transparency, zero accountability and extremely punitive actions taken on those that do speak out.

The FACT that is a perfect system for corruption and abuse of power is the ultimate evidence imo.

Wasn't a bet, I was just that sure we find a way to screw that game up.

Truth be told, I was never going to leave.

It’s preening, condesnickity self-serving free analysis…we should be grateful.

perfect analysis

This statement is hard to believe...being you're such a proven HONORLESS LIAR!

I think the majority of us that saw the proclamation knew for sure it wasn't going to happen.
