Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jimmy Football]

United States is going to lose to these bums.

Fire the U.S. soccer coach.

He actually does need to be fired. He sucks.

 

[knoxvol52]

Wow..I had STD for a few years..

 

[GoodTimeVol]

ND outrecruits us most years.

People (imo) seem to underestimate how well OU, ND, Oregon recruit.

Obviously we'd love to be an annual top-10 recruiting team.

For now I'm very very happy we're closing the avg player gap vs the top tier teams. Our avg recruit ranking has been going up more than most. And Heupel does way more with less.

One more BIG year and I think recruits will see us as a regular contender. For now a lot of schools will keep pushing the "1 year luck" narrative. We need to be in the playoffs more years than not. The next 3-4 years will be MASSIVE for our future image. And with the way our QB room is loading up...with Heupel...pay Garner whatever he wants...we should be up there.

Give us a breakdown of their classes this year on the teams you mentioned what programs did they beat out to get said recruit?

 

[Devo182]

I'm not an expert on Bronnie, but I think he averaged about five points a game. Thanks for asking!

Very similar to Luke Walton.

I'n trying to think of other Nepobaby athletes. But Ken Griffey Jr was a legit stud.

Got it from a tractor.

Yeah ain't nobody got time for that, nor is that a known metric (ie how to compare to others?).

Player rankings are what they are and the correlation to success is undeniable. The freakin laziest calculation in the universe, the BCR, is still undefeated years and years later.

Any team in our range (8-20) is likely to have a fair number of kids that were won over some meh schools, a lot of competitive battles, and some fairly rare wins over the biggest recruiters.

All of Jordans boys sucked at basketball.

Years and years of appeals before this case winds up in the supreme court

That's a lot of years of billable hours to be raked off the top of that settlement money...

NFL is worth Billions, they're not losing this case.

stupid case

 

[screenthis]

Well...... allow me to retort.

5 of the Lakers titles were before they even moved to LA. They were the Minneapolis Lakers prior to 1960 and wore powder blue. They shouldn't even count the ones from when they were in Minnesota. That's some bama type championship claiming right there.


18 NBA titles for Boston
12 NBA titles for Los Angeles

Well, NBA was far from what it is now in the 60s. There's many reasons why the celts went on a long run of championships. They won 11 of those from 1957 to 1969.

 

[Weezer]

Ummm..oh my…should I even…nope, not gonna say it.
apologies accepted if offered…lol.

Did you notice the orange? I know you were worried about the orange.

 

[knoxvol52]

Nice comedy on NBC right now.

 

[Weezer]

So long as he doesn't get in Knecht's way idc. Did you see Magic Johnson's comment on Knecht and Rick Barnes?

Only way he gets in DK's way is if Daddy LeBum takes playing time from DK to give to Bronny.

But the teams you mentioned haven’t won a title in over 10 years…well Oregon hasn’t won one at all.

Not going to happen. Dalton will start.

Walton was a first team all american and 2 time 1st all pac 12 selection…. Bronny averaged 14 ppg as a senior in high school… He measured in at 6’1.5” at the combine… He has been overrated his whole career bc of who is daddy was… im sure there are others but Walton is a poor example.

 

[Vfl2407]

Oh No! I know one person this will get all fired up!

Me, me, me,,,it’s me, it’s me, it’s Earnest T.
Go Big Black!

 

[BigOrange15]

Or they just have a different opinion than you do.

Some are worse than others.

 

[vol_in_ga]

Disrespect from EA in the new game





WTF...

EA hates Tennessee, that or they are high AF.

All the Vol gamers should boycott the game so EA realizes just how stupid it was to slight us so badly when their revenue misses expectations by 8% and their execs resort to dumpster fellatio to support their heroin addictions.

 

[StoVol]

 

[Vfl2407]

If the football team wins the SEC Championship and National Championship in dark mode, and then the basketball team wins the SEC Championship and National Championship in dark mode, how can we know it was even Tennessee the whole time?

All the settlement money in the world can't buy the inner peace that I seek

Well said, my liege, well said.

 

[Orange.]

@Orange. Do you mind posting this to the FF? I was going to, but this feels perfect if you'd like to do the honor

On my way.

A little worried that I couldn't find this suit in black. Is still orange still OK in a pinch?

 

[PYSCHO]

The fact that so many LeBron haters on here now have to cheer for him warms the cockles of my heart.

will not cheer for him or the lakers but will for Knecht. The rest of them can suck.

 

[PYSCHO]

Corbin is that you? Jealous you all suck now?
