Recruiting Football Talk VII

[volbeast33]

Congrats. Jerry Porter Jr should carry you to a dynasty…someday.

Joey Porter jr is already our best CB although the staff is “easing” him in. I would rather have a new OC and OL coach though….. Neither guy has been successful no matter where they have coached.

Using vomiting as a means to an end winds up bulimia.

Not seeing any signs of bulimia, or evidence of a girl stomach, in Crawford.

If he hadn't have retired those dudes would have won 8 titles in a row...I hated the Bulls but I wasn't stupid either that team was a juggernaut...

Basketball fans were cheated when Jordan retired. I know he had his personal reasons to step away from the game. Just imagine if he didn't retire, those games against the Rockets would have been epic.

Yea Bulls had no one to stop Olajuwon in low post..but Rockets had no one even capable of covering Jordan unless they put that head case Vernon Maxwell on him and that would be pushing it...

Rockets had a lot of players on those teams.

Hakeem
Cassell
Kenny Smith
Drexler
Maxwell
Horry
Thorpe

I am probably leaving out some other notables too.

I missed this apparently when it came out -

Earlier this year, the NCAA removed the limit for the number of total official visits a prospect can take before signing.

So unlimited OV’s for recruits now? I think it used to be 5? Was a big deal if you were selected to be one of the OV’s for an elite recruit.

These crack me up lol

Everyone focuses on this dude in the foreground but I always paid attention to the older man behind him in the orange jacket being helped onto the field by the younger man. I’ve wondered often (because I’ve seen it so many times) if they’re father and son. Maybe they’ve had lots of moments together in Neyland and now, on this glorious night, the son is helping his dad onto the field the same way his dad helped him onto the field after the 98 Florida game.

Fan fic, I know. Probably way less poetic.

 

[engineerVOL]

We should release a colony of these from the tunnel out ahead of the players next time we go dark mode ️

 

[SmokinBob]

Awww . How many now with this one? There’s nothing like having grandchildren. I don’t care if there’s one or a hundred. With your own children, you feel like your heart is full, but grandchildren, but, it’s a whole different level to what your heart has the capacity of. I hope we get to see pictures. Not to worry, when my grandson was born, strangers got to see his pictures and they still do,

13 yr old G-daughter, 2 yr old G-son, and this 1 month old G-daughter.

D needs to get off the field more often on 3rd down so we actually get more possessions thusly increasing our TOP per game.

easy math.

Is It really drug dealing when he probably traded it for their breakfast fruit cup??.

Is that what olds are calling that particular body part?

Just don't let her grandfather turn her into a Georgia fan. We need more Vols.

It’s going to be a challenge but I’m up for it! Her dad (my son) is also a dawg

He may do some hard time. Seems like a pretty solid guy and an upstanding member of his community. Maybe he'll get lucky and the judge will be soft on him. The community should stand up for him. Hopefully he can beat the charges and avoid a stiff sentence.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I kind of hope Florida beats Vandy this weekend. We need Sunbelt Billy to do just well enough so they don’t fire him.

 

[mrMet]

I mean I’m only speaking the truth….

Milton is only averaging 7 yds per throw because he isn’t really throwing it deep. He has only thrown 9 touchdown passes.

Ramel has basically been a non-factor at receiver. Squirrel has only caught a handful of deep passes. Bru before his injury was barely targeted. Thornton missed like 2 passes he should have caught but otherwise has been a non-factor….. so how have I lost my mind?

I’m not hating on Milton just stating our receivers aren’t all that as of right now. Very few big explosive plays.

The WR have 63 of 103 (61.1%) total receptions. Bru, squirrel and Ramel making up 57 of those catches… Ramel has 3 td’s as well with Bru having 1. But ok go off dawg
