Recruiting Football Talk VII

How does that feel bama?

 

[Glitch]

Welp, now I forgot what brilliant phrase I was going to change it to. Dammit.

The price of getting old.... walking into a room and immediately forgetting why you walked into the room in the first place.

If Barnes retired, Pearl all day. If Heupel went to the NFL Kiffin maybe depending how he has been (Our next Vitello)

otherwise - gtho

Dang, I don't usually disagree with the your posts, but yikes. Kiffin?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

More interested in what everyone considered consistent. Don’t need to look that up, everyone knows what Barnes has done to this point.

Don’t think he’s one of the top 5 coaches in the game, even tho you only named 3 active coaches. He’s really good tho.

Musselman
Sean Miller's run at AZ
Dana Altmans Oregon run
Fews current run(although I think it's about to end)

OMG VN recruiting board football talk regulars

What business trips happen in Tijuana these days? You must be in a shady industry.

Ummm... no

I own a carpentry business building high end residential wine cellars

Lots of wealthy people south of the border

Don't hate the playa, hate the game

And for what it is worth, I built a cellar for a certain former TN Vol and Denver Broncos super bowl winning quarterback that I cannot mention his name per the terms of the contract

Shady enough for you?

Musselman has been on a heater! Wonder if they even make the tourney this year.

Sean Miller’s run was incredibly brief and never got past the Elite 8. He didn’t make the tourney his last 3 seasons and the last year he made it they dipped out in the 1st round. He was fired he was so bad.

Altman has been the NIT the last 2 seasons. His run was basically 4 seasons (although not saying it can’t continue after a couple bad seasons).

Few is a baller.

Barnes has had those runs. At Texas in a 7 year span he went Sweet 16, final four, sweet 16, round of 64, elite 8, round of 32, elite 8.

At UT he’s gone to Sweet 16 2x in last 5 seasons with one of those seasons not having a tourney.

One of the craziest "world records" ever...................

Vesna Vulović was a flight attendant onboard JAT Yugoslav Airlines Flight 367.
The flight path, between Stockholm in Sweden and Belgrade in Serbia, took the aircraft over Czechoslovakia - now the Czech Republic - and that is where the plane exploded into three pieces. The explosion and crash killed everyone on board. Everyone except Vesna, who survived a fall of 33,333 feet (10,160 metres; 6.31 miles).

At 4:01 p.m., 46 minutes after take off, an explosion in the luggage compartment tore the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 aircraft into three pieces. As the cabin depressurized, the passengers and other flight crew were believed to have been sucked out of the plane into freezing temperatures, falling to their deaths. Vesna’s miraculous survival was attributed to her being pinned down by a food cart in the tail end of the fuselage (the aircraft’s main body).

The fuselage separated from the rest of the plane and hurtled towards the ground in a heavily wooded area near the Czechoslovak village of Srbská Kamenice. It crash landed in the thick snow at a favourable angle, which is most likely what saved Vesna’s life.

Additionally, Vesna’s physicians determined that her low blood pressure caused her to quickly pass out when the cabin depressurized, which prevented her heart from bursting upon impact.

Vesna was found screaming inside the wreckage by Bruno Honke, a local villager and former World War 2 medic who was able to administer vital first aid before rescuers arrived.

Although Vesna survived, she sustained extremely serious injuries and spent the following days in a coma. She suffered a fractured skull, two broken legs, three broken vertebrae, a fractured pelvis, several broken ribs and temporary paralysis below the waist.

Amazingly, Vesna was able to walk again after ten months, albeit with a permanent limp due to the twisting of her spine.

LOL you're very defensive.

And one could argue cellars are a "shady" business.

Good grief…. STHU

Typical Dave Hooker clickbait drivel. He is the worst "media" person we have and that is saying something.

 

[UTSuave’]

Super excited!..any feedback on them as far as quality pros and cons ?.. Apple max’s

[drvenner]

Lol
3 idiots all together

Dave hooker is a hack and the worst host out there. He’s always looking for drama and then he brought in ole jimmy Hyams who blasts CJH and still thinks it’s a disgrace we have injuries on the extra points after tds.

Did anyone ask Jimmy if Jeff Brohm ever has players fake injuries?

Unbelievable story
Look closely at her right hand, different time different world.

Not her looks.. but her comment makes her look silly..Jalen was the only bright spot in that series

Heupel kinda reminds me of Hubert Humphrey. And they're both from South Dakota. Gotta be some relation there

Uh oh, I like watching Dave Hooker....

 

[ReadCT]

LOL you're very defensive.

And one could argue cellars are a "shady" business.

I'll own that

If building $125K wine cellars in $5million - $45million houses on the regular is your definition of shady business, who am I to argue?

I make sawdust and it pays the bills. My cross to bear

I'm looking at deeper than S16 though. Multiple EE's or better. If I was just looking at S16 I could throw in Oats and Paintsr and several others.

The whole point of the conversation though wasn't a shot at Barnes, it's just that I am of the opinion that the tournament isn't as random as people think. Typically the teams that go deep have the same general build. You just see so many different teams because it's hard to get that general build of a team, most good teams in CBB have some sort of fatal flaw that comes back to bite them in a one game sample size.
