Recruiting Football Talk VII

[lilesrt]

If this doesn’t reveal the depravity of our human condition I’m not sure what does. Awful. And for those who get enjoyment from watching it, equally as awful.

Love Pittman and we should ring his phone for quality control if they ever let him go. He could teach Elarbee a lot. Also think he would be a good cultural fit.

He has no more technical knowledge than Ellarbee and has never recruited at his UGA level outside of Athens. Good sounding board if he’s interested, but he’ll have plenty of opportunities to be an on-field if not HC.

that was a great game. the Bru injury is terrible, I won't say anything else about it. So damn sad.

however, COOPER MAYS IS THE TOUGHEST DUDE ON THE F*CKIN BLOCK. WE WIN THAT GAME WITH A GREAT CENTER AND TRULY THE LEADER OF THE OFFENSE STARTS WITH THAT KID. DAMN WHAT A BALL GAME HE HAD!!!!

caps because im screaming that sht all day today. The intellect and strength combo cannot be replaced with our roster at the moment. Watched him all game IMMEDIATELY making calls even post-shift on the DL/LB. Just veteran stuff. Kid is so good at the game.

in a game with so many potential players of the game (Wesley Walker?!?! My dude! SQUIRREL!! Pearce & Baron with the pressure all night!! The interior DL, the FRESHMAN LB's! The receivers stepping up after Bru! Jackson Ross big punts!)

all that was great but COOPER MAYS coming in post triple hernia surgery to play football in the SEC?? my god what a scary dude, what an absolute monster, what a freakshow!! I hope he plays for 50 years in the nfl because damn that is the kind of performance and grit of legend. Hat is off and staying off for Cooper Mays.

Feeling much better about this team going forward and relieved that the first major test & adversity for our coaches brought an increased focus and determination to get things right. Bravo! Let's take it to the aggies.

And even IF we were 1-4, we still shouldn't be booing our players.

Fans forget they are there to be cheerleaders, not execution judges all of 4 games into the season...smdh

Either cheer on your team and create a positive feedback loop or go root for someone else.

While I agree that fans shouldn’t boo players during a game or yell crazy things toward them, I think fans have every right to get upset if the team plays bad or look lethargic. They pay good money and spend their time to watch the team. Some fans even give thousands of dollars a year to support those kids. I think they can get upset.

will levis had a better year last year than Leary so far this year…. Leary was 9-19 for 69 yds against florida.

Well ok...but Levis still sucks arse...Leary wasn't hyped up as the 2nd coming of Favre....maybe that is why it seems he is playing better to me.

I wish the UK was at home....we would probably roll them again.

Do you eat beef? Not sure they track and trap those in the wild. Someone raised them and then had a piston shot through their frontal lobe.

yes but i don't think they're pets.

man arkansas should be patient. i'm not sure they can do better

 

[SmokinBob]

As a die hard Titans fans who hates the Chiefs with every fiber in body, Mahomes is the most fun. Just a magician

…but but but Trey Smith…

I guess Rattler said the game was like UT's Super Bowl?

bbbbbut, gimmicky....

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I suppose we'll find out who Missou is after the next several weeks. They are a team I have zero feel for. I know Vandy cannot run nor defend. I know A&M stops the run on defense and they are more of a running team with Weigman out (were a passing team with him). I know GA is balanced on O with one primary target at TE and better against the pass than the run with those elite DB's on defense. Alabama is a typical run the ball and stop the run team. Kentucky is a less talented version of Bama. Uconn might be the worst team in college football.

But who the heck are Missou right now?

I don't know...but Cook had a heck of a game last week.

 

[Big Orange#1]

I have no idea what he means by this but I still somehow agree with him lol

Lol

What do the passing rankings and total offense rankings look like?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Levis was a much better qb than Leary

Ok.

 

[Devo182]

I'm sorry.... what now???

WHAT THE HECK HAS SHANE DONE?

"Two straight top-10 wins"....right before completely shizzing the bed in their bowl game and starting the next season 2-3...

That's their super bowl. But their actual one. They, to this very day, tell stories to their youngens of their best 8 day stretch in 100 years. And still went 8-5

 

[dwaugh]

Agreed. Should never boo our players. If you don't care for a particular player then just be silent when they are announced. Booing our own players is stupid. Probably the same folks that complain about recruiting not being up to their expectations are the booers.

It's ok to Bru, but not ok to Boo.

Edit: I guess this was already posted. Oh well!

You said it very well. The only point of that kind of thing is blood. If you want to box you can box. This is paying to see people harm one another and the more blood, the better. No dressing it up. I think I could understand an old fashioned fight until they're out or dead type of match better because no one's fooling themselves about what that is. I'm afraid there's just enough window dressing that people are very much fooling themselves as to what those two fighters just did though and it wasn't sport.

Wait. What?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I know lots of people hate Deion Sanders...but which is a worse look as a HC ...Sanders being Sanders with all the quotes and antics...or Trent Dilfer cursing his coaches out on sidelines of a Nationally Televised game?

Screw Deion...I'm sick of him.

 

[Vol423]

It's ok to Bru, but not ok to Boo.

That changes next year.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

And yet the crowd booed him when they introduced the starters. Toxic indeed.

That is so stupid...I have internally groaned when certain players were announced...but I've never booed a Vol and never will.

 

[SmokinBob]

Neyland was wild last light. Finding somewhere to park was atrocious though.


Anyone in the south end zone that got there early can also back this statement up.

Dylan Sampson & Joe Milton are the leaders on offense. Before the game they got the whole offense together and game them one hell of a speech.

Well, What’d they say?!?

 

[Devo182]

Just to make a bowl game USCjr needs to go 50/50 out of:

UF
@Mizzou
@TAMU
Vandy
UK
Clemson

They could pull it off and I don't think they're terrible, we just made them look that bad (especially their passing attack). But they have a legit challenge ahead. I think @TAMU is a loss. Clemson probably is too. The other 3 outside Vandy are 50/50s.
