Recruiting Football Talk VII

Woah!! That’s a massive red flag that he would rather stay on as DB coach at Georgia vs be DC at Bama.

Unfamiliarity with a new HC’s process vs solid foundation. I don’t see the flag. Does show that Deboer is going for the proven SEC vetted hires…unlike Harsin letting proven commodity AND alumni Rodney Garner walk away.

I really want Bama to fail, but not excited that UGA landed T Robb and has Muschamp as a analyst.

No longer play them every year, so...better than going to Bama.

But it is hard to imagine who's going to challenge them each year in the playoffs now...gosh I guess it'll just have to be us

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

How? This guy has been AD everywhere and IDK and not many fans speak highly of him.

The Kiffin of ADs.

 

[volbeast33]

Right now we need one to slip a lot. AL is in a better position and have hated them for decades. So I choose them.

They were both starting to slip a little with NIL… i hope Bama falling doesn’t make georgia unstoppable.

 

[Devo182]

Wasn't disappointing at all. Very dark vibe. Story will be a build up just like the first season.

Thank you

 

[BearCat204]

Or he wasn’t getting the job and this is his way of “saving face”

Kinda like bammer wasnt interested in anyone but DeBore for the HC position

You don’t see a red flag in turning down a promotion? Lol of course you don’t

Since we're talking history and odd stuff, I just learned of Gigantopithecus this week. 9-10 ft tall apes that went went extinct 300,000 years ago sadly. What a sight that would have been. Also a source for modern bigfoot believers.

The Biggest Ape That Ever Lived Was Not Too Big to Fail

 

[SoullessGinger32_]

Thank you

I can tell it's going to be an awesome season.

I am an Occam's razor proponent. Too often these wild theories of civilization are not impossible for me to imagine, but there are far simpler explanations imo. The human imagination is very powerful tool.

He’s also co-DC at Uga. Probably making $1m a year too

 

[Devo182]

Graham Hancock is pretty knowledgeable and has interesting theories on Gobekli Tepe. He enjoys podcasts.

Just curious, what are his theories?


Not aimed at you, but not sure why it needs theories though. The whole civilzation debate seems arbitrary and full of semantics. We know human remains date back, whether a part of "civilized" society or not, hundreds of thousands of years. The rest is just archaeology...a lack thereof...and definitions.

Did hunter-gatherers lack meaningful societies or culture? Is civilization only legitimate when it's a part of an agragarian or urban/centralized society? These are very modern concepts and biased towards agrarianism, as preferrable over hunter-gatherers. One group moved and lived off and within the land. The other stayed in one spot, grew stores of food, and molded the land to its needs rather than living within the land's constraints.

These are value differences, but surely not parameters for when a human culture or society existed or not.

Do find it amazing how belittling we can be against recent humans. As if, just 3 or 4 thousand years ago, they couldn't possibly conceive and build structures.

I think we generally underestimate them, the vast time they had to create such things, their brainpower, and manpower.

College football insider lists Brian Kelly as a candidate at Michigan if Jim Harbaugh leaves for the NFL

SIAP- That would be very interesting to see who would stay committed to LSU if he were to leave.

I can’t imagine Michigan not promoting sheronne from within

 

[MarcoVol]

I really want Bama to fail, but not excited that UGA landed T Robb and has Muschamp as a analyst.

Muschamp is so overrated. His defenses were only good with elite talent á la Jeremy Pruitt.

 

[Glitch]

I recommend it.

 

[Revived2002]

Joe would be hard to beat in a snowball fight.

Just wear a UT football uniform and you’d be fine

If Caleb Downs enters the portal Vols need to give him whatever it takes to land him. Absolute stud beast

 

[Orange_Crush]

He was at CMU earlier in his career and he clearly fits north better than south. I would also think ND shares far more in common with Michigan than LSU. I could easily see him bolt just to escape the culture that gave the world Ed Orgeron.

The thing is, would he be a cultural fit at Michigan, I mean, being a southern bayou boy and all. Not even sure the admin would be able to understand him when he speaks.

Georgia if he does

 

[butchna]

“LOL” gives you an insurmountable advantage…well played.

Thought I explained it fairly well. He knows what’s in store with Kirby, and UGA pays it’s position coaches coordinator level. Why risk the unknown? Plenty of others to jump at the opportunity. He gets turned down by an analyst, then throw your red panties flags like a crazy person.

 

[MarcoVol]

Georgia if he does

Or OSU

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Georgia if he does

Georgia is sitting at like 90 scholarships…they either need to get rid of ppl or put ppl on a graduate scholarship. Also does Caleb want more NIL money because he won’t get it at Georgia
