Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I have a theory. . .

At the very beginning of the game's broadcast they mispronounced Iamaleava. Several minutes later they explained that it's hard to pronounce and he should get a single name like the other mega-superstars, so "Nico" it is.

We all know you can pronounce it just fine after practicing a couple times. We know those clowns in the booth have plenty of time to practice. They talk for a living, pronouncing difficult words is in their yob description.

I believe they planned to mispronounce it on purpose. It is a sign that they have chosen Nico to be their golden ticket to ratings spikes for years to come, so they are anointinging him a super-ultra-megastar early by giving him a 1 word name. "Nico".

If this is the case, and all signs point to the prophecy coming true, they will do everything in their power to push him to the pinnacle of the sport and entertainment world in general. We'll likely see a marketing campaign that pushes him to the front of the Heisman race and further into the public spotlight.

They will ride their golden cow until he self-destructs under the pressure. . . then they will ride his breakdown further. . . or. . . he is a naturally born super-extreme-mega-ultrastar who can handle the constant spotlight and will not break under the pressure. He'll become a star as big as Jordan & Peyton mixed and likely become an actor or own 1,500 Pal's restaurants and a few pro teams.

The media is as good at finding a star to push as Vegas is at finding ways to legally take your money.

Nico appears to be "the chosen one".

We'll see "Nico" in New York and likely winning at least 1 Heisman and at least 1 national title at UT before he goes pro. . .

You could tell in our bowl game against Clemson that they were going to go all in pushing Klubnik for that very reason...they thought he would be the next Trevor Lawrence and take Dabo back to the top.

Trouble is...Klubnik and Dabo both SUCK.

If they even give us a game...voodoo is an actual phenomenon, we need to go find the witch doctor responsible and dispose of him.

Levis ain't a sigma. He's an alpha.

Full of unearned confidence and machismo, Fight Me Now attitude, belittling "real football" talking points, and all just to overcompensate for his underlying SD energy

Work for a guy like that, so insecure that he over compensates by acting just like that.......he's one of those UGA fans that will bark at you too. Literally bark at you and he's in his late 50s.

Is his middle name Big?

Wonderful movie!

Is his middle name Big?

His wife is called Wanda.

Lowkey feel bad for Kent State man.


Most teams I don’t give a **** if they get absolutely destroyed, but for some reason I just felt so bad last night

I hope we do even worse to the **ckface at Texas El Paso later this year. We owe that po a total humiliation...I want him to have PTSD every time he sees orange or hears Rocky Top for the rest of his miserable po life.

Sorry UTEP....nothing against you little fella...but you hired the wrong head..and now you are going to pay the price.

It's insane. How can anyone watch that garbage franchise? The people wanting Nico to play their are nuts. Nico deserves so much better than the terribly run Titans

There**

My neighbor built a horrible, tall wall next door to me. Throws a huge shadow.

Ruined my mornings reading as the sun came up. Guess my next books will be T'kill A Sunrise.




Aw, really guys! C'mon already!!!!!

One of my good buddies that’s a die hard UK fan “that’s the dumb sh*t will’s gotta stop”

I can't get over how good we look. I'm so excited to go to Oklahoma next weekend.

GBO

1st post. Needs more likes. We'll definitely beat OU now.

 

[volamite86]

Delusional....................

If he says anything else it would be a fire storm. Just coach speak for now. He knows he ain’t the dude. Just going to have to make the best of it this year.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

More likely genius

Yeah...I think this will be a dogfight..I've seen Brent Venables do some fantastic scheming against high powered offenses before.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Levis is not a good qb.

So it is written.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

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.

Woof..

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Emmitt Smith as RB coach.

Aaron Hernandez as the team Pastor

Kiffin had to live in the portal and build a short-term solution for this year's opportunity. I don't think it's sustainable, especially with how he's built it.

Yeah...I see what you are saying...he is walking the Norvell type tightrope there. A couple of bad decisions on players and it could fall apart.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Venables is arguably as good at defense as Heupel is at offense, so it should be a war.

Our Defense is better than his offense so we still have the upper hand.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

I wonder who is gonna be the first team against us to try to stop our run and make Nico beat them? Not saying anything negative about Nico but the run game makes everything else work. I don’t know enough about our opponents secondaries to know who’s got dudes on the backend that can handle us 1:1 but someone is gonna try.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Our offense is better than his defense too. They're screwed.
