Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Orange_Crush]

I mean, there was that time last year with an undermanned roster lacking depth, in year 2, that CJH had us ranked #1 and we were in contention for the playoffs. Think you might be writing us off too soon. JMO.

Folks here remind me of the Dr Pepper commercial: Writing the team off in the first play of the season.



Except around here, folks don't even wait for the season.

Yea and some folks, have the wait til next year after 2 or 3 losses in a season ...

It works 2 ways.. Carry on...

I do not care about the NBA.........but Draymond Green needs to be suspended for the remainder of the season.
He is a complete punk.

I’ve always been a draymond fan but he crossed the line big time. He’ll get hammered by the NBA for his third or fourth strike

 

[RDU VOL#14]

They expect the final tally by Thursday. Joe has always wanted to play in the bowl game. We'll see if there's a compromise.

What do you mean by final tally?

2 or 3 losses next year would be fantastic.

Prob on who will play and who won’t

Gotcha.

You do know that's exactly how NCAA football works?

Never liked him personally even in college..idk how he’s still in the NBA with his stats @drvenner puts up better stats seeing how many channels he can flip through from the chair

Dude..I watched his post game presser and he tried to justify it by saying he was being held..if you go back and watch it..his hand drops from draymonds waist just before he spun around and clocked him in the ear..it was definitely intentional…I’m with you he should be gone for the rest of the season without pay..bet that S**t stops

I agree. But what about the year after? And the year after that? And the year after that?

 

[Adam Sandler]

South Carolina??? Why?

Won’t matter if he doesn’t have an online to block for him

2 losses every year would be playoff bound. Not sure about 3, maybe most years. I’d take it.

I think teams would struggle to prepare for Heup’s offense - when running smoothly - on short notice. The pace can’t be replicated. Huge advantage in playoff scenario as long as they don’t take weeks and weeks off between games.

2 losses doesn't guarantee a playoff spot. You're going to have to beat some highly ranked teams to make the playoffs.

We'll not lose less than 4 next year. Having not seen a schedule for 2025 can't really predict but if it's similar to 24, I would expect similar results. We're not recruiting at the level to compete with the upper echelon of college football.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Some of these transfers make no sense... Sanders had 222 carries for Arkansas in 2022 and got hurt in 2023, but now he's wanting to move to South Carolina whose leading rusher had 707 yards this season, which is the most ever in the Beamer era there...

Maybe because Enos could be gone or he didn't like the new offense under Enos?

Yeah, I don't get this... last time I checked the recruiting isn't even over until February. We haven't even gotten to ESD at this point.

His old OC is in SC.

You’re right!..none of it makes sense…but I can tell you what does

I think it makes sense.

Sanders just needs to show he can stay healthy this last season so he has a shot in the NFL. I believe he’s going to be a senior. With South Carolina not running as much, he can at least save some wear and tear.

222 carries in one season can take a toll. That and what TnHunter said

 

[MoCo_Vol]

2023 we ended with 25 commits and an average rating of 90.87 on 247 with 1 5 star & 11 4 stars (277 total points)
2024 we're sitting at 19 commits and an average rating of 91.65 on 247 with 2 5 stars & 11 4 stars (263.41 total points)

If anything this class looks like we've been more selective with who we take because we're chasing bigger talent.

Maybe...or he could get hurt again behind arguably the worst OL in the SEC and not even get drafted.

I'll gladly admit I was wrong but I don't see significant movement between now and ESD or even February. We'll finish middle of the pack in the SEC, IMO.

@butchna... rumblings about Belichick being let go in New England at seasons end....

Maybe Chargers next destination???
