Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jackcrevol]

Spraggins is anything but. Also, we’re gonna start sham (a tackle) at guard and I have to imagine his raw physical traits are gonna help him excel. Nowhere else are we unproven. Now if we don’t stay healthy, I’d be concerned.

Fair enough. We are unproven at the other guard position. Same at Tackle. I mean the LSU transfer can be good. Hope he is. Staff must feel good where we are. Hope whatever solution it is, is Karej free. Dude was Drew Richmondesque in his whiffs.

But you're spot on. If there's an injury we may be in a tough spot. Specially at C.

Very happy for him. He will stay hungry and make a lot more than that over the course of a long career.

id say at $5 mill a year in LA he can live very comfortably. Well above median. But, will still need to be smart over time. They're talking about allow insurance to raise rates 31%, insane.

Why so down on the OL?

Not really down on them, just think the only blue chips in the starting lineup are Heard and Coop.

Happy Saturday

July 20, 2024: You have turned a page in your life, and the door has opened for you to move forward. It is a time of reflection when you can see who you really are, to correct mistakes, make amends, and become the person you are truly designed to be. You cannot change the past, but you can set your sights on righteousness, peace and joy, says the Lord. Romans 14:17 for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

That's a one time signing bonus.

In talking with some Jr's and Sr's in the program today who gave us a tour I'm even more convinced this is the right path for her. They were telling us the head of the Dept at Martin is involved with review and acceptance of students into their Vet school.

These two young ladies showed us their building, labs, surgical facilities and ask if their barns/paddocks today. Small class sizes and professors are very involved and invested in their students success.

We've even decided not to do a TN Tech visit because it's perfect for her, especially transitioning from a small unit school.

I’m roughly 20 miles from there and our son lives in Martin. It’s just a nice rural town with a small college. I had a teacher in high school who graduated from University of Tennessee Martin Branch
That’s what was on her parking pass.

Not 5M per, 5M is the signing bonus. Plus even if fast-tracked he won't be in LA full time for closer to two years.

There’s a huge drop off after the top 8-9. There’s a realistic scenario in which the top 7 teams finish with 9+ wins. And the bottom 5 don’t win more than 4 games.

Ole Miss has an easy schedule so that one makes sense.

 

[drvenner]

WTH Enki?

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Agree?

I don’t care where they are ranked. I will be happy with their performance at the end of

16-0

 

[WesTnVol]

Anddddd, you just dated yourself.


Marilyn has to be on looks alone. Audrey shined in her movies, now I just put a date stamp on myself. . Actually, I love old movies and try to catch them when I can. Have you watched ‘All about Eve’, ‘Stalag 27 or ‘Stella Dallas’?

Audrey led an interesting life, nearly starving to death as a child and working for the Dutch/Netherlands underground during WW2.

 

[Billy Antrim]

I just loved to watch her.

 

[SugarCC]

Well she’s a guy so there’s that

 

[Jackcrevol]

I see no indication that Kennedy Smith was a man. Also, I believe she's married.

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

Coach Heup on Boo, sounds like he’s going to play early and often.

"I'm excited about his growth in mastering the position within the fundamentals and technique and our scheme as we go through training camp. But expect Boo to have a great fall."

 

[Vfl2407]

Turrentine at FS and ja thomas and Jo thomas rotating at ss. Staff has been high on slaughter I’d think he’d backup turrentine. Also, apparently will brooks is in this conversation.

Thanks very much.

Signing to a Cali team is a death sentence

 

[JCVol00]

Since we haven’t seen a depth chart yet,
what is your educated guess as to who will be our starting safeties and their two backups?

Turrentine and Jakobe Thomas, with jordan thomas at star and slaughter/brooks rotating in

 

[JCVol00]

I got problems with this. Think OL is a top 3 sec unit this year. Why so down on them? Also think staes and Davis at TE are going to wow.

At TE we are very unproven, as well as Davis being very injury prone. As for OL, too many ?’s there. Campbell got hurt quite a bit last year, Spraggins coming back from knee injury so we dont know how healthy he’ll be. Dont know yet what we’re getting with Heard or LG, and the depth behind the starting 5 is why im not high on our ol

 

[OrangeMoundTNVol]

I’m sure Brock Lesnar daughter could start at mike backer for CSU football team if she tried out. Wow..

I was fishing in Canada and one of the guys had about 18” pike on his line. About 3ft from the boat a 42” pike came grabbed it. They do not let go. It was pretty awesome.

Holy wa! @VolsDoc81TX liking a same day post within a few hours?! Crazy times we’re living in, crazy times.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I can name one. My point is if you don't know who the players are, how can you say that we should be ranked below the other three teams?

Because those teams are more talented than we are.

The redwood with a hole you can drive a car through is pretty cool.

Also there’s a sprawling tree in I think Cumberland island or near there that’s pretty awesome. EDIT: it’s the angel oak and it’s in Charleston. These trees can also apparently be found throughout southern Louisiana and I believe the oldest one on record is actually in California.

Beautiful oak trees in Louisiana. Oak Alley.
