Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Revived2002]

Ask Bama, Georgia, LSU, Florida, A&M fans if 8-4 is a good season. You’ll get rejected quickly.

Well if that’s how fanbases are headed into this new world order, then coaches are going to be cycling in and out of these programs faster than ever before. Will be impossible to develop any traction.

Well I assumed as much since he was mad at me, the community drunk, ya know

I am not jackrelvol

 

[JCVol00]

Not disagreeing there are some questions but actually getting to the point we did last year in year 2 with the program he inherited convinced me he could coach.

I still wonder how much its coaching versus players not running the system well. Hope nico is everything we hope he is.

It’s not the players not running the system well, at least I would hope not because we are in year 3 and most guys now have been in the program 3 years, so that would negatively show the staffs recruiting ability/developing

I'd like to see Nico get the start vs vandy but he won't since it is senior day and that's understandable.

Today was a disaster and we need to dominate the portal. Spyre needs to be ok with over paying.

I think Florida and TAMU would kill for 8-4 right now…and the other 3 have National Titles in the last 5 years.


Tennessee is rebuilding from the worst era in program history.

Seems like wright was pretty upset with him tonight

Wright just had a checked out attitude tonight imo, I think he has one foot in the draft already.

 

[RikidyBones]

Also, we do not have any emotional leaders and it shows when things get bad. Hooker was one last year

That’s too rational

Right, plus, it looks like we will only be playing 8 conference games and not 9, as was previously thought. So, that means that after next year, we won't play Bama, Florida and Georgia every year. Our permanent rival will be Vanderbilt in that scenario, while for Bama it will be Auburn. To me, that is a win.. I'll take my chances with Texas and Oklahoma, as compared to playing Bama, Gators, Dawgs yearly. I think it helps the Vols with scheduling going forward.

 

[Revived2002]

Sure, 8-4 season is great at Arkansas.

So your expectations regarding what is good remain unchanged, even when Oklahoma and Texas are added to the league?

Ha ha

Wow

 

[volinbama256]

the shift on here in one week/one game is Hilarious and incredible--

 

[Weezer]

Are our SEC opponents for next season set?

 

[Vols4us]

Hmm. I think starting Nico would have killed the locker room. Sounds like the players have Milton’s back, for all his faults.

Then we have the wrong players.

Yes

Ha ha

Wow

9-3/8-4 is going to be the new normal…with the occasional 10-2/11-1 championship runs

VERY few programs will be able to consistently win 10-11 regular season games in the new SEC

 

[volinbama256]

been set

This right here is RICH coming from your in-game posts lmfao

Wow

If we were playing the 9 game schedule in the conference I would certainly see your point but looks like it will remain 8 games, to me that is a big difference.

Yes

The way ED was running his mouth tonight, I'm guessing Mizzou is not one of our opponents next season.

 

[engineerVOL]

I know 3 turnovers on the road will get you beat by anyone. We gotta knock that off.

 

[VolNash17]

I really hope the administration doesn’t think a 8-4 season is a good season. Holy **** what’s the point in going to games or donating to NIL or athletics department? Lmao imagine Kirby Saban or the other top SEC programs thinking 8-4 is a good season. Saban would resign immediately if he went 8-4. Aggies are about to run off Jimbo for hovering around a 8-4 record just as they did sumlin. Just not reality in the upper sec

Ole Miss got spanked

Nope, I posted the link in another post.

Really interested in seeing what @LA Vol says in the coming weeks. Maybe some new intel on football as the season closes
