Recruiting Football Talk VII

[VolGee4]

Tell the undefeated Auburn team that had to watch “the two best teams” play for the championship.

Yep. If I recall, the AP and Coaches polls were part of the BCS formula. USC and OU were #1 and #2 starting in the preseason in both polls. Auburn moved up but never had a chance to supplant either of the top 2 teams because they started further back.

If you go back and look at their schedules, USC beat 3 final ranked teams, OU beat 2 ranked teams (top 5 Texas), and Auburn beat 4 ranked teams (top 7 UGA and UT twice).

Uga: where talented qbs go to transfer out of.
Uk: Where talented qbs go to die.

This quote is wild man.

Well, this is is how we got to the Final Four last year over FAU, so I’m not going to cast stones.

This quote is wild man.

I guess they said since Harbaugh wants to play a weakened FSU, we'll give them Bama instead lol

 

[Adam Sandler]

Let’s get him and his bro. Or is it forgone conclusion he’s joining his bro in Miami?

 

[SugarCC]

You are. We had both on SOS.

I know we had the SOS; but, I remember being worried going into that last weekend. Maybe because I thought we'd get screwed somehow.

Maybe...even though we had SOS favor, we played the weaker of the 3 opponents that last weekend. Texas A&M was like 10-1, 9-2, I think, ranked in top 10...Miami was what, 8-2, 7-3? (UCLA was also riding like a 20, 21 game winning streak going into that game) ...Mississippi St was 8-3, I believe. As I said, I guess I was worried they'd both jump over us with wins that last weekend. Manning screw job was still fresh.

Saban

I don’t get it

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.

Remember, since you won’t actually be graded on what you did or didn’t learn, the most important thing is to look like the kind of person who would get good grades.

 

[butchna]

He was committed to Oklahoma before flipping to UGA.

 

[butchna]

I don’t get it

“Best thing since…”? And Saban took a shot at Fisher and that class as the best class money can buy.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Is there anything the portal can’t do?

Should’ve went women’s lacrosse if he wanted to guarantee himself a spot.

 

[Adam Sandler]

He is from Bogart, Ga.

Thank you

 

[KB5252]

And he'll be joining Michigan's lacrosse team immediately.......... To help Harbau...........I mean the lacrosse team win!

Good, strong name.

 

[Orangeburst]

For the love of all that is Holy, when you are talking about the WR group it is CORPS. C O R P S. Not core, corr, korr, kore, or cor. Even freaking marines like @BaldBiker know how to spell corps. TIA.

You like Holy Warlick? I think she was horrible, but not sure what her corp problem was, but doesnt effect me.

 

[MemphisVol3]

wait who the hell is slice bread? We talkin Bunny or Nature's Own?

Slice Bread is the Oklahoma poster that somewhat started the whole ordeal that A&M was dropping huge bags for the record breaking 5-star class they signed.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

It is finals week so I am looking forward to meeting many of them for the first time!

Can you imagine the commentators saying "After the dunk, Tennessee Rainwater comes down hard" lol

 

[TrippieRedd]

You can probably go ahead and say we offered Alan Herron or will. (Portal guy)

Boo is recruiting him on twitter. Got a decent offer list.

Yeah he's generating a lot of interest too.

 

[BucVol98]

True, based on 247 Clemson, Auburn, and Penn St all offered on Nov 29

 

[TrippieRedd]

Yeah he's generating a lot of interest too.

Surprised he’s ranked so low in the portal rankings.

Locked On Vols mentioned that in February 2022, the Alliance (ACC, Big 10, Pac 12) all voted against expanding the CFP before 2024.

Texas toast, imo

 

[TrippieRedd]

Can we just pull Fleming and Wells to pair with Squirrel?

I want to go ahead and give my Heisman vote to Nico next season.
