Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Weezer]

Always some sunshine pumpers no matter how bad some things look.

Neutral field, good chance we win. That was not a neutral field. Home team always has an advantage. Florida played well at home.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I disagree. I am a strong, virile link.

But maybe we should consider firing McGill before he shows up saying "I told y'all so".

I ain't saying ....I hate this..

The blindside block call was REALLY TRASH.

The ref kicking the ball, we just have to be lined up there so when Florida subs we snap it, easy 1st then.

There were a few missed DPIs and Defensive holding calls. But what’s frustrating is that’s just a few calls BUT THEY ALL HURT US. I don’t recall any that hurt Florida and were bad calls.


Ollie Lane costs us a ton of yards himself too. But I’m more annoyed that in year 3 our OL coach isn’t playing a single starter HE recruited out of HS. That worries me.

Yeah, one thing that bugs me is “X got outcoached by Y…that’s a huge red flag.”

Like you said, it happens. Tom Osborne used to get inexplicably outcoached one game per year for what seemed like decades (17 years, maybe?). Then he won three national championships.

Exactly. None of us are perfect. Let’s bounce back and win some titles.

We gotta open it up next week against UTSA…we need legit game reps with plays we are going to have to run against SEC teams.

If you get fired from the RF, we will welcome you in the Zone.

I’m afraid we are what we are by now.

Interesting comparisons (should not be concluded that the outcomes will be same/similar) for first 29 games:
Heupel 20-9
Heupel (UCF) 24-5
Pruitt 15-14
Jones 14-15
Dooley 14-15
Smart 22-7
Richt 24-5
Saban (LSU) 21-8
Saban (UA) 21-8
Meyer 25-4
Fulmer 22-6-1
Spurrier (UF) 23-6
Spurrier (USC) 18-11
Mullen (MSU) 16-13
Mullen (UF) 23-6
Beamer 16-13

I mean, being .700 in your first 30 games (assuming a win next week) is a pretty decent litmus test and a high quality start to a tenure. The only one of these coaches that was at that level and didn't last was Mullen at Florida.

 

[UpstateVol613]

That many pre-snap penalties in year 3 should not be acceptable. We were always behind the sticks.

The fighting Deion's having a tough go against Colorado State. Yall Deion worshippers still loving you some Deion?

Deion is a disgrace and is gonna ruin CFB. It’s gonna be like watching the BET awards every Saturday.

I disagree. I am a strong, virile link.

It was all McGill's fault for abandoning the game thread before kickoff.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

We are gonna be lucky to win 7...this is worse than I thought it would ne....way worse..

Anyways....I'm out for a while. Sick of the nutkicks of being a Tennessee fan.

 

[Smokey123]

Slants, posts, curls? That’s midrange to WR’s. I’m telling you that it’s not Heupel’s offense. Only 29 games in.

7% of hookers attempts were screens last year. 20% of Milton’s attempts this year have been screens. 3% of passing have gone 30+, last year it was 10%. Continue to think the play calls are the exactly the same if you want. They’re not.

 

[Jimmy Football]

I’m afraid we are what we are by now.

Nah.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Deion is a disgrace and is gonna ruin CFB. It’s gonna be like watching the BET awards every Saturday.

Dude needs to amputate his leg and get on with life outside of CFB.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Coach Prime getting outcoached by Jay Norvell. That’s a huge red flag.

 

[InVOLuntary]

We didn't lose because:

We dont have Hyatt or Tillman
we dont have Darnell Wright
We don't have the defensive players that went to the draft.
We don't have Alex Golesh

We lost because we dont have Hendon Hooker or comparable QB to cover for crappy, over-his-head defensive coordinator.

In order to win last year, we had to outscore folks. We're not good enough on offense to outscore folks.

 

[MiddleVol76]

Give me Fowler-Nicolosi in the portal. Dude is hitting his receivers in stride. Good game so far.

I'm not a fan of any coach being overly cocky. Skin color doesn't matter. So I'm not a fan of Deion doing that. But I think it's way too early to tell how good a coach he is. Win or lose.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I’m afraid we are what we are by now.

Not sure, so many new faces still getting experience playing together. I think the A&M game after the bye will be the most telling. Just hope we’re still only a 1 loss team going into that one.

Was rooting hard for Milton.

He’s a physically gifted freak of an athlete but just doesn’t have it between the ears.

Better to give Nico a shot next week.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

We are gonna be lucky to win 7...this is worse than I thought it would he....way worse..

Anyways....I'm out for a while. Sick of the nutkicks of being a Tennessee fan.

I always thought we'd be around an 8-4 team by year 3. Anything more than 8-4 is good.

He’s already double their win total from last year after omly 2 weeks

 

[Jimmy Football]

The SEC is garbage. And it’s about time.
