Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TN-POSSUM]

Levis is trash, how do the Titans lose 24-17 when Chicago has 148 total yards and 0 offensive TDs.

Will Levis is how.

Whew! Finally caught up from yesterday. Many times I thought about giving up, but kept thinking “what would @VolsDoc81TX and @SmokinBob do?” I knew, like @Glitch serving and marching in his Crocs, I had to carry on.

You are not wayward or in Kansas anymore.

Scan this thread and save your time in other forums. If it is worth mentioning it almost always gets shared here. I pretty much stopped going anywhere else. It would be cool if they had a favorites feed.

I agree. And I really do try to keep up with this thread, but it’s tough to do at the moment. I missed a few days and was all of a sudden over 200 pages behind in this thread alone. Again, thrilled with the level of excitement. Just unfortunate that I can’t keep up with all of it. Appreciate what everyone brings.

Speaking of crocs, this was in the Arion Carter thread.....
Just like the VOLS, Crocs are elite.

Indeed, I am not.

This man deserves a better job.

Offensively, that game was fairly similar to Pitt in 22. Not smooth. Never hit the high gears we saw later in the season. But still found ways to find points and impose our will.

The difference was the defense (which was also a bully in that Pitt game), but this time we got off the field on 3rd downs consistently.

The DL is so impressive. They just collapsed the NC State OL over and over and forced them to run things they didnt want to run all night. Absolute clinic.

The offensive explosion is inevitable and some poor opponent is going to get their doors blown off. I'm skeptical we find that at OU. Their defense will make things difficult, but i still think we come out of there with a win. My guess is we find that gear against Arkansas and leave their poor carcass scattered across their barren state.

Looking forward to it.

12-0 is on the table. No reason to have fear going into any game on this schedule. Now we are the one who knocks.

Two years in a row of taking Bama to the 4th quarter. He’ll get it.

What I like about this team is you normally have a really off night where things don’t go well and your not executing and things kind of unravel.

With this team if one area has an off night the other can pick up the slack.

It’s a complete team.

I saw him at practice. Talked to players and coaches.

I saw him actually play in real games, not against air...and he SUCKED...lol.

Players and coaches lying to themselves too.

Man I get it...you're a die hard Titans fan, you really wanted to believe that everything bad you had seen of him at UK was a mirage....you desperately wanted to believe that Titans management is smarter than you...you wanted him to be great, and I totally understand that...every year I REALLY wanted JG to show up and be what the coaches thought he could be, and what he looked like in practice...and you know how that went.

It is called suspension of disbelief and we all do it sometimes with something we really want.

 

[franklinpence]

I knew Titans would loose to this joker.

Not Titaned up enough I guess.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Good night winners.

 

[Big Orange#1]

Oddsmaker on the radio picked NC St OUTRIGHT, not just to cover. He was 9/10 week one, but even with my BVS I can't see us outright losing. Maybe we don't cover in a worst case scenario, but I was floored when I heard that.

Update us later this week so we can fade this dude's weekend picks

 

[85SugarVol]

I hope the Twos on the OL get a lot of play and film put down this week. With the potential of as many as 16 games this year, all the rotation we can manage seems to be a big plus.

I just hope they let them run the offense when they do go in. The reps would be much more valuable.

His video last week was one of his best.

His video last week was one of his best.

He is a Comedian and a Gators fan but really hilarious

I think I’m just never gonna get over the Titans drafting Will “3 interceptions vs the 2022 TN Vols Secondary” Levis. Hendon was and is the better QB and to the surprise of no Vols fan everyone is now realizing that.

Eh, I'm not convinced you can't reset with a rookie if you take all that extra money to build an elite roster around that rookie. Situational of course but I just think the pieces around the qb are way undervalued and the qbs are over valued in the NFL with the exception of a few.

Purdy is a great example. Build an elite roster and even a Mr irrelevant can come in and have success. I'll never believe Purdy would have anywhere near that success at Washington or Carolina or some other bad team. It's the team that makes him so good.

Then explain how Tampa Bay goes 13 seasons without even qualifying for the postseason. Draft, develop, lose entire rosters, build another roster and even draft a Heisman winner and don’t even sniff the playoffs until they sign Tom Brady…then win the Super Bowl. These Niners couldn’t win with Garappalo or Trey Lance. Why couldn’t the TEAM make THEM “good”?

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Stay crisp. Play the starters for one half.

Score 80.

10 years/ $375 million needs a little more gusto in his analyzing of the game.

Was easy for Tony Romo, he loves to talk.
