Recruiting Football Talk VII

[85SugarVol]

I’m a youngin’ but I have seen his performance in “Mississippi Burning” and “Bonnie and Clyde”. What else is good?

 

[scores4fun]

Wait until the NCAA investigate USCjr for using NIL money to sign a D2 running back! What a joke the LameCocks are!

Tennessee will go to war with the NCAA and Forde for this hit piece.

I’m anxious to see Danny White’s response.

I hope he directly calls out Forde.

 

[Weezer]

NCAA - "Georgia is letting drunk support staff drive players and recruits around and even got a player killed. Time to investigate Tennessee again."

FFS, investigate the real cheaters and dumbasses. Michigan, Georgia, Bama.... These are the schools they should be looking at, yet they completely ignore them. How the hell do they expect anyone to take them seriously when they protect certain schools while persecuting others? In the words of McGill, it's .

 

[Weezer]

Forde is afraid of us getting momentum on the recruiting trail.

 

[VolNash17]

Screw the ncaa

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Gotta add The Replacements to this list.

I've seen all of these. Can't get myself to watch Mississippi Burning. It would likely get me too 'worked up'.

And The Quick and the Dead was pretty good too

 

[DD4ME]

Forde is afraid of us getting momentum on the recruiting trail.

I think he's just afraid of losing his job because he sucks so he leaked some half ass info.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Screw the ncaa

AND BAMA

 

[Chuckie]

Should sue Forde and the NCAA for defamation.

 

[MemphisVol3]

We need to tell the NCAA to kiss our ass. Point. Blank. Period.

Michigan literally just won a national title while being under investigation. F' em lol

Spyre and Danny White have been absolutely on top of making sure everything is done by the book because Tennessee couldn't afford any more slip-ups.

I'm eager to see Danny White's response to this. He's no pushover and I doubt he'll tolerate some hack like Forde controlling any narrative about Tennessee.

 

[rikberry31]

Forde is afraid of us getting momentum on the recruiting trail.

He's trying to get clicks by poking at Tennessee fans, he has made a career of it. And Tennessee fans oblige him every time. And even if it was legit, as far as big time college athletics is concerned the NCAA is dead man walking

 

[Chuckie]

Fun fact: Dalton Knecht did this exact same dunk, except two-handed, tomahawk style during regulation time of an actual game.

 

[VOL608]

This “investigation” is total BS. The NCAA is just pissed they have no control over NIL. If they were smart, they would’ve created their own, universal NIL laws. Now each state has their own NIL with different rules/laws. Who is the NCAA to tell states how to run NIL when each state passed bills through their legislature?

 

[VOL608]

Movies with Gene Hackman I recommend:

Unforgiven
Hoosiers
Superman 1 and 2
Enemy of the State
Crimson Tide (dumb title, great movie)

(Mississippi Burning would be on my list if you wouldn't have mentioned it)

Mississippi Burning is a great movie, but it’s tough to watch.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I mean this is a pretty straightforward act of inducement if you ask me.

NCAA is probably too scared to drive in Athens while investigating. A drunk player could easily kill them.

 

[BigSteve09]

Forde is a loser.

He knows anything that portrays Tennessee in a negative light will do numbers all over the place. They'll share it on social media, on message boards, they'll talk about it on the radio and TV to drive people to the article. SI is in serious trouble and he's try desperately to garner clicks/attn.

Absolutely shameless move.

Not funny, but it's funny.

 

[SoilVol]

There's probably 40 schools the NCAA is "investigating" and Forde picked who to write about? I really hope White blasts him.

Money is moving. The NCAA is making sure it's moving properly. Big whoop. An investigation in this scenario is not an assumption of guilt no more than a random professional sports drug test.

University departments get audited all the time just to make sure everything is accounted for. That is not an assumption of guilt, its routine. If the NCAA wasn't "investigating" one of the deep pocket programs then that should raise eyebrows. It's not news though. It should only be news if there's findings.

Forde wants to smear us.
