Recruiting Football Talk VII

He's the walk on that started most of the season for Utah and beat Florida in their first game. I doubt it happens but he seems like a good candidate for someone with experience to back up Nico.

Yikes. There is an insane amount of bias, unconscious or not, in the committee asking themselves that type of question.

He's not saying "Who do you/we want to see play in the playoff?". He's saying, "As a coach, we ask ourselves who we would want to have to try to beat?". It's another way of saying, "We work to put the best in the playoff, as opposed to the most deserving."

@smokeyhuntsgators TWP is good too, but it's pretty expensive.

Do you have any experience with Farrell-Calhoun? Always heard its excellent. But out of my price range, for decking

I hope the guy coming in next year is better.

No matter what they did somebody was going to be mad, do what you think you need to, tell it how it is and move on. The more you try to defend it the worse it looks.

Next year, I want better defined criteria with a clear hierarchy of factors, I want them consistently applied week-to-week, season-to-season, and I want public defenses of their decisions to be specifically connected to those criteria.

TB says about a year ago Walter Nolen reached out to Tennessee asking if he could come here. We said “Sure” and he said “How much will I get?” And Rodney Garner essentially said “You’ll get developed”. Apparently Garner was never super high on Nolan in the first place so we saw no need to make a big $$ offer.

Luttrell in portal

Dang. Really liked his attitude and long term potential.

He's a helluva talent. Think we are seeing tough love fly up in our noses like the flush of a toilet. No matter, RG is the man.

Since Kyle McCord won't play in the Cotton Bowl for OSU they should reseed the Buckeyes and move them to a lower bowl.

 

[Adam Sandler]

Turnage

Not surprised. He probably would still get playing time this year but he’s more likely to be passed on the depth chart than to gain more of a starting role.

 

[Adam Sandler]

How many QBs better than Kyle McCord are going to be in the transfer portal? This move reminds me of what Clemson did to DJ Uiagalelei.

I’m shocked by how many starting qbs have entered the portal this year

 

[MarcoVol]

A white freshman mid three star DB who never saw the field has an NIL value of 100k?

Idk where on3 comes up with these stupid valuations but they should eliminate that feature. There is zero chance thats accurate.

I think part of the formula is based on social media following. How much of a reach does said player have

 

[Adam Sandler]

Wasn't Runph here under Pruitt?

Those are some notable names

 

[PowerT.]

Sounds like things are trending that Big O will be back for another year.

Besides arguing over a G5 or P5 team for the last spot, I don't see much room to debate with 12 teams.

Looking at the final rankings this season, I don't really see any debate to be had.

 

[Skullbone]

We need some talent in the secondary. It's a weak spot on our team consistently imo.

Huge if true. Now it’s your turn Omar Norman Lott…

These guys paired with Walter Nolan is gonna be a lot of fun.

 

[Chuckie]

Then **** the season...just pick the four prettiest teams at any point in the year you want, and let em go at it...

I'm Chuckie, and I agree with UEM (sigh).

Are you kidding? There’s vociferous debate about the last teams in a 68-team basketball tourney. The debate will be let.

My hope is that’s it’s done with clear criteria in a consistent manner. I know that’s asking a lot.

Spectacular development of the case

Had to inform my students today that rather than assessing them on their performance throughout the semester, I will be convening a committee of individuals who have never taught a college course nor even actually taken one to assign their grades. Kirk Herbstreit told me it was a good idea.

Better tell them not to get injured: automatic F.

Football is typically more clear cut tho.
