Recruiting Football Talk VII

[sjt18]

What has he done that’s racist? Same question to @BigOrangeTrain.

He has emphasized skin color as a selling point to recruits and transfers.

We simply need to get past that as a society... past the point where it matters to ANYONE.

So you’re saying blacks shouldn’t play for Heupel?

Kind of the way I took it also

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

I hope he comes back. I’m a Jets hater, but I’ve never really disliked Rodgers, even if he is a little crazy.

I'm a Bears fan so I hate him. And we still suck. Offensive play calling left a lot to be desired on Sunday.

Deion is a loud mouth tool in my opinion. Very different personality from Heup. I guess it depends on what kind of coach and program you prefer as a player. Deion is going to be flashy, but it is going to be about Deion most of the time. Heup is humble and passes on the praise. Just my take though.

Forgot which post I was replying to. Yeah, I really don't see what skin color has to do with it.

That ball should have been thrown to the bottom of the midfield T with a little more air under it

Maybe, but we have no clue what the route was supposed to be. Maybe he was supposed to stop at where the ball was thrown.

Woody Johnson is returning the bling today .....the big chain that had Woody charm on it....probably worth one week pay he has to give to Rodgers...

Love some arrogant, self centered personalities.

Give me Smokey helmet
White Jersey with some Smokey gray incorporated
Smokey gray pants

I was thinking about this earlier too.
Football is the only sport where dark jerseys are the home team. Gray is universally accepted in baseball and basketball, so if a team has a gray jersey in its combinations they should be allowed to wear them on the road as long as it doesn't clash with the home team and not be penalized for doing so.

Rodgers delivered exactly the same stat line any random 39 year old dude off the street would have delivered under center in an NFL game, lol. 1 incompletion and then catastrophically injured on the first possession.

I’m crying

Boring

Best uniforms we have

 

[drvenner]

? We lost to Pitt and Purdue in 2021 and South Carolina in 2022 with more than 30 points.

Thanks, wet blanket.

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Saturday night forecast is for partly cloudy skies with a low of 71. Probably upper 70’s around kickoff. Looks like good weather!

Dark mode is the best

I thought Justin Fields would be massively improved this year. Jury is still out as it’s only week 1 but not a big confidence booster Sunday.

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

I’d rather play for Deion than heupel if I had no connection to Tennessee as a fan. Sorry, just true. Especially if I was a black kid.

I’ve been impressed so far by Deion at CU, but…why?

 

[drvenner]

John
Pennington said it and he never lies

Ah, there's your problem. Pennington told the truth once and then lied to get out of it.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Okay so we have

QB - Merklinger
RB - Lewis
WR - Matthews, Staley,
TE - Echols
OL - Anderson, Warren, Satterwhite, Ginther, Perry

DL - Heard, Lindstrom, Ross, Gentle,
LB - Burns and Spillman
Secondary - Beasley, Goree, Boo, Farooq


Land Mikel, West Coast TE, Navarro, and another DL.

Hit the portal hard. Take that every day.

Looking at our depth chart or whatever, looks like we could potentially return like 8 starters on defense for next season, wow that would be nice lol

I’m assuming you’re a Tennessean, if not, this won’t make any sense.

If you could play for one of two coaches, the first being a Connecticut Yankee and the latter a good ole East Tennessee hillbilly, all else being equal, which would you choose? Many of us would gravitate toward the person we had more in common with culturally.

How is Deion’s pitch any different?

Im waffling….

How we feeling about Saturdays gsme?

Saying Saturday night twice in your post is redundant and saying the same thing twice.

What you do in your shower is your own business. No need to bring it to the board.

The coaches are losing the team!!!!!
