Bummer on Jerry. I bet we go internal. Just based on Josh's MO. Not crazy about that from a recruiting standpoint.
Bottom line is programs recruit. It's easy to recruit if you have a program or a vision to sell. EX. If Bama continues to will their recruiting will not fall off. Two things recruit, vision and past results.

That’s not accurate at all, imo….. Some coaches have the intensity to be great recruiters….. Saban and Smart have IT….. Deboer is not in the same class as those two.
 
Super Bowl commercials and the halftime show used to be worthwhile. It’s been a few years since they were good. Guess we will be waiting another year to see if they can make a return.
False nostalgia imo

They've never been consistently great. You only get a Prince performance one time. Then you might get a decently memorable one every 5 years or so. The rest are meh. But probably good for some demos.

At least it isn't the 80s super bowl halftimes, those were truly laughable.
 
As far as football QBs go
You don't think Brady is the GOAT with SEVEN titles?

88% say he's the best QB of all-time. For context, compare that to MJ's goat basketball player vote of 58%. His position atop the NFL greats is undeniable and a more sizable gap than in other sports, though Mahomes has a chance to chip away.

Mahomes, with 3 at 28 years old, is just 1 year behind TB with 3 at 27.

Question will be if he can keep up the pace without Reid/Kelce at some point and have longevity.

When the Titans get good again…..and have a VFl or two…..don’t jump on that bandwagon…

You stay you 👊
Also, it's not my fault the Titans suck. I wanted to root for them. Then they proceeded to make bad decision after bad decision. It's very hard to cheer for incompetence.
 
Coach addressed it right after the game which seems to me that the crowd chanting that bothered him…. We were ranked 6 in the country and they weren’t even in the other receiving votes category…. They whipped us by 16 in a game that wasn’t ever close….. Seems like that would make us OVERRATED.
Pretty sure he was asked about Reed Arena by an A&M beat writer. He didn’t just speak on it without being asked. Context matters.

If people don’t know, Barnes is brutally honest, and that’s something that’s been discussed for years. It’s nothing.

If Saban or Kirby were a Vandy do you think they would recruit at the same level? If they weren't winning and put players in the league they wouldn't be recruiting nearly as well. Smooze only goes so far.
 
Of course not. But that wasn’t the comparison that was being made
He stated that he wanted a certain amount, right? If he didn’t get that amount from UGA, did he talk to other Universities about getting that amount? If he did, did those Universities violate NIL? Did he violate NIL? Do we even know what NIL rules are? Are there any NIL rules? Were there any NIL rules?

you are talking in extremes…. i do think that Kirby/Saban would recruit better here than Heup has so far…… better than Mullen at Florida……Deboer is no where near the recruiter that Saban is….. He will probably still have decent classes due to being at Bama…. They won’t be close to the elite level that Saban was at.

Deboer hasn't won like Saban/Kirby or put dudes in the league like Saban/Kirby. I'm trying to think of one coach that recruited well and didn't do both.
