Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Devo182]

Do you stand by this take if UGA boat races them on Saturday? I guess the counter-argument will then be how many of their players opted out/transferred? I'm not being smart, this is a genuine question.

Not Glitch but I would 100% stand by those words.

They freakin earned it.


And let's not act like they've ever decided based on "the 4 best teams". Show me....2015 Michigan St!!! (Blown out). ND (blown out). TCU was not one of the best 4 and lost by 15,000 TDs in the title game.

Just a sorry *** excuse to squeeze in a big headliner game and give the old gipper **** one more shot to avoid 3 straight seasons without a title.

God I hope Michigan wrecks them. And fwiw yes UGA will absolutely wreck fsu and their (now starting, due to the committee's decision) 3rd string qb and host of other benchwarmers.

It's stupid. And yet somehow they'll feel justified smdh

I disagree. I think Ohio State is better than Alabama. Prove me wrong.

Objectively true.

Eeeh, Kara Lawson's was mentioned in Lady Vols forum about replacing Kellie...

You would have thought the Plague had come back by reading the post.

I don't know if she would be a good hire or a bad hire. She doesn't have enough of a record as a coach to really know. The problem most people probably have is how badly trying to "keep it in the Tennessee family" has failed.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Lol Miami. Lol Francis

That's an embarrassing loss. . . I'd be embarrassed for the Vols to lose to Rutgers in a bowl.

 

[Devo182]

Waiting to see if he makes an actual CB prediction first...

Otherwise, clicky baity

Whether play calling changed or not, are you suggesting the coaches always made the perfect play call and it was the players' fault for failing to execute? That's absurd. It's not all on the players. It's not all on the coaches.

Again... The context is Heupel vs Golesh. I'm saying that it is dumb to claim that Golesh is the difference in the offense.

Period. End stop. That's my argument.

AGAIN

The argument I am responding to says:

1--QB play was much worse.
2--WR play was much worse.

Thus:

3--Current staff is worse at calling plays than Golesh, even though:


a--The one making the argument admits to not knowing whether Golesh called plays.
b--The one making the argument has listed other reasons that play-calling would have to change, and that offensive results would be lesser this year.


That's it. That's all. I'm calling a specific argument unsupported.

Bogus ,Pop Tart Bowl has no Sponsor ..

Just states Pop Tart, I bet its those damn Kroger Pop Tarts..

Gotta say that I'm not wild about Stewart to UT. Having said that, if he shows his arse, Heupel can send him packing. Said it before...I'd rather roll with our incoming freshmen than take this risk.

When you're the pop tart bowl, you don't need another stinkin' sponsor. Pop tarts are the bomb.

 

[Weezer]

I'd rather have AJ Harris than Stewart.

I have no idea how much of a difference Golesh makes. Does anyone? No one seems to really know how much input our OC has. How involved are they in game planning? How involved are they really in play calling? In game preparation? I have no idea. Heupel most likely calls the plays. I don't believe he's ever come out and said. He definitely has final say.

It’s like Kleenex. Kroger’s are called Toaster Treats. The Toaster Treat Bowl- sounds like something that should be played in Lexington.

 

[Midas]

It's like Heup knows a few things about QB coaching.

What’s crazy is Peyton and Bray were all passing yards and probably with negative yards running lol.

The watermelon pop tarts need to make a come back.
*absolutely, fantastic when dipped in milk.

**Cookout has a watermelon milkshake in the summer that is pretty good too

Peyton also played one less game every year.

Pop Tart is the name brand. . .

 

[SSVol]

Which is the responsibility of whom?

It aint mine, it aint yours. Its on Halzle and Heup to get these guys prepared. And they didnt execute.

This is bordering on stupid. No amount of play calling or coaching can turn the village idiot into a brain surgeon. No amount of play calling or coaching can make 150lb guy into an SEC lineman. Physical and mental limitations are just that, limitations.

You wanna fault them? Fault them on not having better personnel, but this isn't a Heupel or Halzle coaching or play calling issue.

 

[SweetasSoda]

I felt that way until it became abundantly clear to me that the SEC directs its scumbag officials to screw us over...they want to keep us down because they can't have us upsetting their few chosen teams postseason plans by beating them.

Yes. But I think the other conferences protect their potential playoff teams also. Too much money is at stake.

Wonder why they don't have a Kellogg's Cereal Bowl? It markets itself.
