Recruiting Football Talk VII

NC State is playing UF, not UK.

how did i miss that? damn

 

[MoCo_Vol]

That inning where Dean turned the DP and then caught the 3rd out I felt like was the "dagger" moment.

 

[volbeast33]

That whole Delmonico bloodline man.

All great players.

One of my best friends was recruited by Delmonico…. He played on Delmonicos all-star team that played in Bill Mayer stadium and had a 92 mph fastball but he chose marriage instead… My friend was an idiot!

Burke

Something I will never, ever forget.

 

[volbeast33]

It was Serrano for me if we are saying earnestly tracked. I remember the kerfuffle over him not having a degree.

Honeymoonus Interruptus: Dave Serrano's Educational Credentials are Mostly Irrelevant

Questions about Tennessee baseball coach Dave Serrano's bachelor's degree (or lack thereof) have no bearing on his fitness to be the team's head coach.

We bent the rules to get that idiotic small ball crap in here.

I worked at Cedar Point the summer after my freshman year. They came to campus and recruited summer workers.

I was there pretty much every summer from '77-'82. We only spent one day there each time but it was my favorite day of the year.

 

[drvenner]

Baseball has their own thread. Whassup?

Madam, this is a Vols board. We talk about them and pretty much everything else. Plenty of recruiting news in the player threads.

What’s wrong with people

Bro has watched a lot of film and just knows

 

[Volsdeep4]

That’s like 30,000 shots at $5 per shot. Rocco is gonna gross a quarter mil on less than $1,000 worth of supply.

Its brilliant

 

[volbeast33]

Are you telling me someone was in there saying bad things about Frank Anderson?

Top five staff in the country….. not good enough, imo

 

[Brillovol]

A portion of the money does, not all of it. Still yet 25 percent is better than nothing.( Example) Don't know exact percentage.

Stand corrected split between all 8 teams so yes it's for a good cause, yet let's not act like the bar made no money..

Should we be mad if they did? It's not like there's some false pretense here. I hope they made out like bandits. And I hope the food bank was blessed beyond measure. Both things can be true.


Capitalism at its finest.

 

[drvenner]

Bro!..he sucks under pressure with anyone on base..has zero tricks in his bag..scouting report strictly says.”curveball pitcher” and more times than not leaves one hanging over the zone and it’s sent to the moon or a RBI…great kid and appreciate what he’s done for the vols but a spade is a spade I’d give anything to have Redmond Walsh Back in this World Series run versus Kirby…night and day difference..Redmond was cold blooded under pressure

You ought to be ashamed of yourself.

 

[csprig9]

Damn
Who’s that blonde

 

[drvenner]

I don’t necessarily agree with this opinion but I respect it bc it was given after a great performance…. I don’t think he has been as effective as in years past but he has saved our rears a few times as well.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself too

Well the 2 years that I actually attended Walters State in Morristown, Chris Freeman pitched at WS then went to Tennessee.

Freeman got drafted in MLB and I majored in Billiards.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

This college world series run means a lot to me…. I have been there for many baseball moments:
1. Todd Heltons first game
2. was at a UT baseball game the day the blizzard of 93 hit.
3. Many Todd Helton Homeruns
4. Bubba Trammell
5. Chris Burke
6. Saw Luke Hochevar pitch in a regional
7. Saw many other future pros play.
8. Was there during the bad Raleigh years
9. Spent many a day making fun of Dave Serrano’s team… they were so small(didn’t look like athletes.)

How many fans on this site followed UT baseball before TV and when did you start supporting them?

First UT sporting event I went to was baseball. I remember as a 3rd grader watching them play ETSU at Cardinal Park.
I still remember the game went into extras, but I really wanted JP Arencebias autograph, we had to leave but in between innings we went down to the dugout and my dad gave my hat to Coach Simcox who got JP to sign it so we could leave.

 

[vol4eva]

Just watched Rory’s 3 ft putt misses on 16 and 18.

Lawd, that’s how careers end. Feel bad for the guy

 

[volbeast33]

Nah I am good

 

[drvenner]

That whole Delmonico bloodline man.

All great players.

He abused his pitchers.

I went to some games back in the early 80s during the Whited years, but I didn’t really follow the program closely. I remember Rusty Ensor. They were actually decent, then.

I paid attention in the Delmonico years, but mostly just through the postseason. Certainly nothing like now. It’s just different; charismatic coach, great players, lots of personalities, and you can watch every game (which makes a big difference).

GO VOLS

Probably best this guy will likely never celebrate a Father's Day.

Sounds like weekend went good. In a battle with UGA for a number of guys.
