Recruiting Football Talk VII

[rdavis007]

Are there any former Vols currently on the Eagles?

I'll probably root for them to lose anyway. Never have been a big Eagles fan, even when Reggie played there.

Mostly UGA Dawgs!

not an ounce of athleticism left in Dak's body


remember the days of Mullen running QB power the entire game with him and now Nose Tackles hawk him down with ease lol

Mack Brown is probably next soon to retire. He will be 72 yrs old next year I believe.

 

[SweetasSoda]

So anyone but Eagles!

So glad that list of cheaters and scumbags wasn't my childhood.

Mine was Pat and Phil.

Thank goodness

Snow has started here in Nashville. A bit earlier than expected too I think.

I’m in Shelby County. We thought it would start in the evening, but it has already covered the streets and ground.

Jerry Jones 2 days ago " Coach McCarthy is under contract for next season,"

Jerry Jones Tomorrow Morning" Coach going have to let you go, tell Bill to come in my office on your way out"..

Uhh KenPom?

It's opponent-adjusted...

Oh. I was using actual stats from the NCAA.

Oh. I was using actual stats from the NCAA.

Lol whoops.

Using unadjusted, raw stats in 2024 when so much more data is available...

bad news, my child hood was original cast of sesame street, mr rogers. dale murphy. staubach.

 

[VolGee4]

KenPom is used by everyone in the industry, including a metric used by the committee.

Next my cousin Junebug, Bo Jackson was the greatest athlete of all time

100% and it’s not close

KenPom rankings are so widely accepted these days that they may as well be NCAA statistics.

Ouch. No idea why people still rely on raw stats when the tools are in place to account for SOS and tempo.

That’s like gauging the temperature by taking your shirt off in the snow instead of reading a thermometer lol.

crazy that dallas can't put two and two together. really think they have the pieces, and it isnt coaching. look at GB it stops and starts with qb play. Dak isn't the answer.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

He got them from KenPom, which are efficiency stats. Not per game stats. KenPom is adjusted specifically for the opponent.

We are currently in the range of past national title winners. Top 20 in both offensive and defensive efficiency.

Well I used stats from NCAA and they are valid. Sorry but we aren’t as good on either side of the ball that some think. Well we are against crap teams.

I’ve said this in the past, too, but Dak was really good this year. Sure, he isn’t as good in the playoffs, but their defense has been bad today. They might have a chance if they would have just stopped them 2/3 more times. They’ve had some uncharacteristic breakdowns. Bland has emerged, but they are also missing their best cover corner.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

People thought he was the favorite to land the FL job after Napier gets canned next season.

Assuming he gets canned

If Jerry Jones would act like a true owner Dallas would be a powerhouse

Then don’t use the tools out there. KenPom has been around for years and what the experts use. Raw stats mean nothing. Just enlighten yourself.

bubbles are bottled moran.
