Recruiting Football Talk VII

[MarcoVol]

that rebuild should have started higher up.

Didn’t they hire a new GM just last year

McMurray checked all the boxes but when he got to campus last weekend, the coaches tapped the brakes because they weren't quite sure. It was probably refreshing to find someone who's ready to commit and doesn't ask for the moon, then the stars, then when the sun comes up, they want that, too.

if you want to see an NFL franchise that doesn't know how to do it...look East toward Charlotte. this franchise is a dumpster fire. fired the coach you hired to replace the coach you fired last year, half way thru his first season. fired the GM after the season. went 2 and 1/2 games to close the season w/out scoring a single point. have the worst record in the NFL and have NO 1st round pics. Gave up your future last season to bring in your QB of the future, while letting every offensive weapon you had of note walk, and surrounded him with maybe the worst OL in the league and a bunch of skill players that should be in the XFL.

all the while, trying to get the tax payers to pay for your new stadium, defuncting on bills you owe to contractors all over the carolinas, and while we're at it, let's throw some drinks on opposing fans...in THEIR building, because YOU suck and they told you so.

go panthers.

Fake news. Would be amazing if true but it’s not. He’s got about as good a situation as you could want at uga. And when saban retires, there will be nothing standing between uga and another decade plus of dominance.

Yea until Josh showed up

 

[UTSuave’]

Ohio st fans obviously don’t get tv reception for Titans games

Weren't quite sure because of his size?

If only elarbee and Martinez could quit sabotaging our return to dominance efforts

 

[Ttucke11]

Lol Ran Carthon wanted to blow up the roster for freaking Will Levis.

A disaster in the making.

0-17 here we come.

The roster was already blown up. Titans fans just didn't want to accept that and get rid of the few assets you had left for something of significance.

 

[CAVPUT]

Uh oh, you went and done it now..

 

[Devo182]

Prob just win the ACC.

Don’t conf champs get the best seeds?

Gross if true. Conference dogmatism.

Sure wouldn't be ThE fOuR BeSt TeAmS

IYO, is Heard a Vol? See he still hasn't committed yet.

 

[Devo182]

ESPN has Tennessee at #17 in their way too early 2024 poll. About right?

Quick regurgitation of the current poll.

I'd like to say a handful of spots higher, but I'll wait to see how well we shore up the ol and secondary.

With the right pieces, I think 9-14 could be about right.

Also, does taking McMurray mean we're out on Aydan White?

Which scheme would be able to put up video game numbers on the 2022 UGA defense in a deafening Sanford Stadium? Inquiring minds want to know.

Heupel’s scheme is fine. I don’t even know what “gimmicky” means. This isn’t the 80s anymore. The name of the game is get the ball to a guy in space, period. The NFL continues to hire young, innovative offensive head coaches. It’s not gimmicky to run up-tempo, short-game, sideline-to-sideline. It’s modern football.

That wasn't my point. I was looking at a team that had superb defensive talent that had no problem with our hurry up schemes. Drawing a bit of a parallel to how it might go for his offense were it in the NFL. Just don't think NFL teams who all have pretty danged good DBs will be as susceptible to the pace or confusion that goes with the Heupel scheme. In college, it's fine...most of the time. Still think teams that have the corners to man up on our WRs will be a tough ask of our offense. But it will let us do more with less and that's a good thing since we don't recruit at the UGA/bama levels. Not saying I'm disappointed or unhappy with it at all. I think for us, UT, it's a great scheme.

He's just not on his game today. Must be losing a step.

Won't happen. Smart saw what the NFL did to Saban. Even with all the changes to college football, the NFL is a completely different beast. I don't see Kirby wanting to take that risk.

no risk at all…. get paid millions to prove yourself on the biggest stage… if you fail…. land at a college job of your choice.

Yep. The only thing it could hurt is his ego

Wild how when we ultimately pick up the Temple player there are so few comments, and the ones that are posted is that he is just depth. When we thought we missed him though it was a clear sign of our brokenness.
