Recruiting Football Talk VII

[JohnnyD1024]

Continuing the trend of pro sports nepotism, Bob Stoops drafted his son in today's UFL collage draft.

I'm never that concerned about RB. If you have a good offense and a good offensive line, a decent RB will look elite. Don't screw up pass pro, don't drop easy passes, hit the open holes, and Heupel can make any decent RB a top RB. Everyone else on offense is more important in my opinion.

True....but a guy like Dylan opens up the playbook and really makes out offense go. Same thing with Seldon even though they do it in slightly different ways. Make no mistake that both of those guys are elite and will make NFL rosters.

You do have a point that a guy like Jabari Small who is not elite looked to be so in our offense. Jabari was a talented back and very good player who also had shoulder and other injuries that limited his production and kept him from reaching his full potential. But he still was very good and tough as hell. I appreciate him as a VFL that stuck with the program and he played well under Pruitt.

That said, Heupel's system brought out the best in him. The wide splits and WR's blocking open big holes for one-cut RB's to gain chunk yardage and gash defenses when they aren't prepared. That makes good players look great and elite players absolutely dominant.

Don't worry. He's still biased and will use his platform for biased purposes so long as he has it. He thinks that is rat poison to the rivals and motivation to his boys.

Yep. I'm pretty sure Alabama is still paying him and he has an office there. Hard to be unbiased.

[sreveisVol]

Wow.

Those moon shoes help

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Wow.

My first reaction was that Pili is a big ol LB.

 

[The Comb]

Could we please take the 1 off of that and have that be the legit score on October 12???!!!

Why take the 1 off???

 

[The Comb]

Ok, honest opinions from the people who are playing College Football 25. Is it worth buying? I put off paying extra to play early. Trying to decide if it is worth full price or wait until a sale.

Yes, it's a lot of fun

Squirrel and Sampson are cheat codes in CFB25

 

[DD4ME]

The 1st checker should be chess. We will see on the context.

This might be the clip of the day.

But how many individuals do we have that have never flown on a plane?

This true? About contracts being the only school in their state in the sec.

I think you guys are making way way more of this than it is. She is going to rehab because her PR manager is making her. The same as the boxing guy who is going to anger management after being caught using racist language. It's for PR and nothing else. That's what literally every celebrity does when they get caught being a bad human or making bad choices, they go to rehab as an attempt to dodge the social consequences of their bad decisions.

She's a mediocre musical talent who's used social media and flaunting her admittedly nice bod to make a name for herself in an industry where talent isn't all that important. I don't care if she could sing in an a capella group, she's not that great of a singer. The people around her aren't to blame. She is. She's not a victim, she's a social media starlet who's developed bad habits that caused her to embarrass herself. Her bad choices and lifestyle caught up to her. This isn't the first time she's done this, it's the first time it's had consequences she couldn't avoid.

You have me . It's American culture. And late modernity. I'm not worried. The very concept of "celebrity" -- being famous for being famous -- is relatively new in the world. A severely degenerated mode of "fame."

Not to mention Pearce on defense.

 

[tennesseefan31]

Had a lot going on, been super MIA since spring practice. Been trying to catch up on recruiting. What's the latest on the current roster though? Anyone been turning heads in the offseason? Any intel on what the DB lineup is gonna be?

Not sure how they'd have a lawsuit when they were part of the unanimous decision to admit Texas and OU.

From The Tennessean:

The vote was unanimous, the group said in a statement. The one possible roadblock to a unanimous vote was cleared Wednesday evening, when the Texas A&M System Board of Regents said they would direct university president M. Katherine Banks to vote in favor of adding the Longhorns and Sooners, the Aggies' former Big 12 rivals.

SEC votes to admit Texas and Oklahoma, expand to 16 teams

The focus for the SEC now shifts to how quickly — and at what financial cost — the conference can add Texas and Oklahoma. The goal is July 1, 2025.

See my previous post. How can they sue if they voted to admit the two schools?

 

[TrippieRedd]

 

[Weezer]

If the Aggies want to leave the SEC for a weaker conference, they can take their male cheerleaders and go. The only person that will be disappointed is @Glitch .
