Recruiting Football Talk VII

[VolGee4]

He’s dressed out two weeks in a row. LA has said he’s not been full go at all thru fall or season. They have said hernia and a 6 week recovery, well here it is going on week 7 and nothing but him warming up. I don’t understand even dressing out if you know you aren’t playing.

Because you replicate a game day leading up to playing. It was reported that he was snapping pre-game. He’s about to start playing, so you get him ready for it. Not dressing out doesn’t prepare him. Some of our fans act like our coaches don’t know what they are doing.

They're not going out on a limb like that unless you're wearing a t-shirt with your preferred pronouns.

Or people in Denver don't want to get laughed directly in their faces.

We haven’t. Again, I’m not saying we look amazing. I’m just saying the reactions by this fanbase have been wild. Its just amazing how quickly we forget how bad this team was when we hired Heupel and we’ve tasted some success and now we think we’re Alabama.

I don’t think we’re Alabama. That’s my whole point. We’re still a ways off. I’m just saying I won’t be particularly bothered to go 7-5 given the difficulty of the schedule.

31 point win. Players have improved. A large portion of our dumba$$ fan base has not. Sad and pathetic. See yall about Wednesday.

I think its the lack of confidence in our secondary. I'm not saying that USCe is going to win but I would feel a lot more confident about it if we had a decent secondary. They seem to can't cover nor tackle. I loved the way we came out today on Offense and the defense was clicking for a bit and then half time came and its like they lost all mental focus.

Rattler vs our secondary is the only reason I think we lose. Nothing else about them scares me, and I think we’re better in every other facet. But if he’s slinging it for 500 yards, I don’t think Milton will be able to keep up behind our OLine.

UAB tied 7-7 with Georgia in the 2nd quarter.

Man we could have had a great run in this conference if we were a bit more like last years team.

It’s there for the taking.

Just a down year for everyone it seems.

I went to a bar in Denver to watch the game with other Vol fans and weirdly none of them called me a beta male or got combative. I forgot how much VN lives terminally online. Great win! Enjoy the rest of your weekend with people that love you.

You probably don't incessantly say irrationally negative stuff to them while yall are hanging out.

Y'all watching ND/OSU?

I will say these 4K channels on YTTV are fantastic

Honest take, how we look today? I missed the whole game.

 

[TennTakedown]

Maybe you're just in the wrong forum .

We're the VN RF and we'll pump sunshine up your butt all day long in here

Sunshine pumping is great when we’re executing and the ball doesn’t bounce our way, but we’re making adjustments and figuring it out. We’re not making any changes and Tennessee football is beating its head against a brick wall trying to make a square peg for a round hole. The frustrating part is watching the same thing week after week without adjustments made. That doesn’t look good for us moving forward.

Did you only watch the 3rd quarter? Joe looked much better before he got banged up. The defense played bad after the back up QB came in but we were up 31-0 when that happened. I saw improvement today. The 1st half was awesome and it was total dominance until Joe got hurt

 

[JT3]

You too @Enki_Amenra how we look today?

80% good 3.5% questionable 16.5% bad.

We stained our britches. But mostly cause we sat in stain.

Honest take, how we look today? I missed the whole game.

First half was great. Totally get right half.

Joe got hurt at the end of the second quarter.

Never looked right again and went 1-10 to start the 3rd.

Défense completely different in the second half and they moved the ball way easy.

We forced some late turnovers and scored a couple times to put it away.

Sampson was a dude.

Yet we are 3-1 with three wins by 17+ points. UF game was frustrating, but oh how some have forgotten where we have been.

I swear, going 11-2 last year with one game away from the playoff, was just bad for Josh Heupel. People expect perfection.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Sam Pittman has some serious moobs.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

FYI Georgia is tied 7-7 in the 2nd quarter with 42 point underdog UAB so I guess Georgia should give up on this season as well.

 

[RikidyBones]

I’ve never heard the post-game call in shows for a 3-1 team so miserable. Like, we definitely have a lot of problems with the team but man I’m hearing people say we won’t win 2 SEC games this year. People are nuts.

I love voluntary reaction. Content is gold

 

[TheRain]

Go Irish.

 

[SoilVol]

I think people are giving too much overreaction to the two scoring drives we allowed.

UTSA switched QBs and made adjustments at half. We were up 31-0 and came back out flat. They executed very well the first drive and had us on our heels, then hit a big play on the second drive.

We adjusted, and they didn't score another point even with our backups against their 1st team.

Don't overreact to that. Our defense is not bad. It's often undisciplined due to youth and inexperience, but its talented and disruptive. I saw more disciplined play during this game, outside of those two drives. The important thing that everyone is ignoring is the fact that they fixed it and refocused.

 

[TennTakedown]

Did you only watch the 3rd quarter?

You mean when we did nothing but throw to the sidelines or to the end zone against a very inferior opponent? Or when the hit us in the mouth and marched down the field twice with their 3rd string qb?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Sam Pittman has some serious moobs.

His name is Robert Paulson.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

I hate watching UF struggle in the first half with Charlotte.
