Recruiting Football Talk VII

[csprig9]

To join the Big 10? How many teams are they gonna expand to?

All of this, and the SEC will still probably win the bulk of football NCs.

How accurate is that Twitter account

Karic has certainly struggled

I checked on the Tennessee website and Karic is listed at 6’6” and 310.
Some posters were stating that he is tiny. That’s not tiny, but he certainly doesn’t seem to play like a 300+ lb lineman.

Don’t remember him playing for Southlake, but that doesn’t mean anything…

Looking at the play that got Milton injured, to me, it looked like he was given a different assignment and then too late saw the other lineman. That same lineman went right by Sampson. Also untouched. If either of them could have gotten even a little push , that dl would not have gotten to Milton. Just little chips would have been enough.

If they’re smart they’ll try to create a bidding war between sec and big 10. But if sec wants em they gotta find someone else too. Who would that be? My vote would be for fsu or ga tech.

Nope, I was told all of this was a good thing.

Not by me! If count douchekoo in Anderson SC thinks the ACC is tough...

Perhaps the OL coach should rest him, indefinitely.

I would expect they would try to get VA Tech if they needed someone to match with Clemson just because they get their foothold in another new state TV market.

There goes that man!
Acuña gets 40/70

My wife likes to often reflect back on the halcyon days of her youth. Not sure what that has to do with her asking me to help her make her hair look like a Rastafarian. I don't want to help her do that. In fact, I am really dreading it.

No way the SEC lets the B10 get Clemson and get into the SEC footprint. Sankey said the SEC wasn't looking to add teams but would react to any new developments. I really don't think the SEC lets Clemson, NC or FSU go to the B10.

Clemson and Ga Tech would make most sense. but I think SEC is done.

FSU makes more sense monetarily.

It has never happened in the SEC. No unranked team in 31 years has ever played in Atlanta.
Going forward, there certainly won’t be an unranked team playing in Atlanta. Ever.

Only 3 winners in 31 years have been ranked lower than #7.

Unranked and low ranked teams have consistently played in the Big12 & ACC games.
It will only become more precarious as those conferences have been continually poached.

Agree to disagree..NCAA will do whatever they want doesn't matter what anyone thinks .

Not sure how many teams they have now, but I think the SEC and B10 both wast at least 16. Although either having 20+ would shock me.

I wouldnt be shocked if we end up with 4 conferences total.

At this point, given all that's happened, I'm not opposed to dumping Mizzou and adding Oklahoma State (for the sole purpose of keeping Bedlam alive), then raiding the ACC. Super conferences seem to be what the powers-that-be want. They don't really give a damn what fans want. I think it's a shame we're seeing so many traditional rivalries fall to the wayside.

Texas and OU will put the SEC at 16, but as dominoes fall, it wouldn't surprise me to see more added.

Unfortunately those rivries don't bring eyeballs. 20 million people watched ND and OH ST.
Michigan and Minnesota rent getting 20 million eyeballs to play for the little brown jug.

We will, I think we get one of FSU and Miami, we might take Clemsuck just to keep the B10 from getting them, and eventually I think we get one or two of the NC and VA schools.

To get into new markets though, I think we need a Kansas school and then maybe someone in the NE above the Mason Dixon.

Lastly, I think eventually you will see conferences adding teams that are close and don't give them new markets just to keep others from getting them.

My guess is it’s the SEC and FSU comes with them.

Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech I would like to see...could play Virginia Tech in Bristol ...every so often can be either teams home game...

 

[KptVFL]

He’s right.

Wedding reception?

Gotta look at the thing like we are Nick Saban's padawan.

Keep it classy San Diego.

The Giants didn’t win their division. They were a wild card.

How does this further your argument for auto bids for conference champions?

The whole purpose of my point in that post of “getting hot at the right time.” I’m not sure what was hard to understand
