Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Enki_Amenra]

This Tennessee team has a real shot to be remembered as one of the best collegiate teams of all time, based on the offensive and defensive performance and the eye test to this point in the season. It's plain to see that Nico is in the top-tier of great college QB's so far. If they can keep this up, and there are zero signs it's a fluke, they could finish the season with a claim as one of the most complete, exciting college teams to ever step on the field.

That is probably a lot to ask, but it's not absurd. I've wanted our Vols to have a true shot at greatness since I was born a couple decades ago. They are finally in position and have the opportunity. I hope our guys are up to the challenge and make it all look easy.

It was very generous of us to show Kent State's special teams coordinator the flaw in his kickoff alignment.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I tried to tell yall I can't even remember who the idiot was who told me I was an idiot saying he had a chance to be significant this year. All he could say was he was a walk on. smh

Blind hog/acorn type of thing IMO.

We're looking 2019 LSU-esque

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Ole Miss has more yards. We have more points.

Navy prolly winning in time of possession

If I'm remembering correctly, ole Laney boy has been keeping his players in to pad the stats so far this season.

Nick De la Torre of On3 explained that Napier's seven-year, $51.8 million contract runs through 2028, and the school would owe 85 percent of the remaining amount if he were fired without cause.

"I have cause... it's be-cause I hate him!" - Florida

Probably will pay off by giving them a win somewhere down the line.

@mrMet

Titans going best that bad man today. The Jets didn't look to hot vs 49 ers.

It’ll be an interesting game. Curious to see if the defense looks good again or if Caleb Williams is just that bad

Jets front 4 gonna cause problems for Levis and the oline all day i fear

 

[Orange_Crush]

With a top NIL in the country, I think it's sustainable

I guess the point being that he said "regularly", not "ever". Thus we'll see.

I do not believe he is intimately connected to the situation — his point was more so that Florida is a place you can regularly compete for titles at. Ole Miss is not nor will it ever be that.

Hate Florida, but can’t really disagree.

I mean, the way this season is going, Kiffin will be competing for a title, so it's hard to say they'll never compete for a title. They have one of the best NIL in the country, which is what matters now.

That was.... Perplexing. And really we just got lucky that the guy who was in perfect position to catch it totally whiffed.

Fair.

No sir. We're looking 2024 UT-esque. Much better IYAM.

 

[SoilVol]

Florida wins that imo. By a few scores. Msst is awful.

Honeymoon is already over in Starkville. State fans were pleased with Week 1. Accepting of Week 2. Calling for heads after losing to Toledo so badly.

 

[Orange.]

I mean, define classless? ...

When they can find absolutely nothing of substance to say negative about our team's play and take hopeless recourse to a shady claim of "morally superiority."

 

[jave36]

Lol @ Justin Wilcox

 

[MrVolton]

So apparently their fans’ hot board is:

1. Lane Kiffin
2. Urban Meyer
3. Jimbo Fisher
4. Bob Stoops

Please let it be Jimbo. Not scared of that at all.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Who is hungover today?

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

I mean, define classless? Is classless playing the son of a vol qb legend late in the game when he may not ever get to play the game again? Is it classless to let your walk ons who were born and raised in small town Tennessee who dreamed of playing for this team get a chance to make a play under the lights in Neyland? Is it classless to give the other team the option to shorten the game and respect the decision they make regardless? If everything we do is negative no matter what to the national media, then we really gotta stop listening to the national media and just play ball

 

[Orange.]

And navy only got one or two possessions, the 5th stringer player more than he did. I didn't even know we had a 5th string. Do they want us to play with no qb? Lol

They do not if Sampson or Bishop is in the wildcat.

 

[Orange_Crush]

Sampson in wildcat with what equates to an extra blocker...

I feel like that was an Ekeler call, not a Heupel call. You leave a massive hole in your front line and you're begging for that.

It wasn't a great kick. If it had taken a big hop I think we would've recovered it in the air. If we don't recover its a good opportunity to test the defense on a short field.

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

My new avi

But my 2nd choice

 

[VolInDayton]

The mentality of this team is exactly where it needs to be. They are locked in and out for blood. Heupel with have a great game plan next week and will show no mercy welcoming OU into the SEC.

Anyone else notice this?

I did! Only 1 guy doesn‘t run all the way into the endzone!

 

[drvenner]

Tennessee is now -6.5 against Oklahoma…crazy line movement. Glad I got in at -2.5

I really don't love the hype. I think we still go in there and win, but we really will be most teams super bowl
