Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TrippieRedd]

Yeah I had that thought, And I thought but Ms St??? Surely he’ll have better options.
He was a top QB recruit, so a lot of others recruited him also

He wouldn’t have to worry about losing his starting position.

Less pressure, don’t have expectations to win 9+ wins every year. He gets coached by the guy that recruited him.

Would be the smartest decision for him, imo

 

[SpringBokVol]

Do we know anything more about what happened to him? Maybe concussion type symptoms?

Was it boo in street clothes or Seldon?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I still think the second half was more Heup shutting the O down than anything.
1) 2 backup tackles
3) Our D Line was eating them alive
3) Try to limit injury risk

None of those reasons you gave make sense. Who cares about expectations and being coached by the guy who recruited you?

That would be one of the worst decisions ever. The kid is still a potential nfl qb, he doesn't need to mail in his career and go to a crappy school with low expectations because his qb coach would be someone who recruited him.

And it's a moot point anyway because he'll be right back out there once the backup performs even worse than he did once teams are able to game plan for him. And once OU gets their OL together and isn't missing all 3 of their starting WR, he'll look like a good qb. The only reason they brought in the backup is because he's more mobile, and that's all that matters until the OL gets better.

The pass that was a fumble or whatever would not have mattered because they called roughing the passer.

It's not roughing the passer if he fumbled, because if he fumbled he wasn't a passer.

It was Tennessee's defense.

Word is Tennessee broke Oklahoma. Just thought I spread the Word..

So, in other words, two bad calls against the Vols on the same play?

Edit: I like @jave36’s answer too.

Trash like this has to be cracked down on. It creates an unfair advantage, but more importantly, it’s risking severe injury to the players!

It wasn't an unfair advantage, they have to play on it too. Their field has been crappy all year, they didn't change it just for us. Their fans hate it as much as we do.

It does risk injury, and I suspect the field is partially to blame for the dozens of injuries plaguing their team.

I'm not convinced it was a fumble from the one view we got, but it was malpractice not to stop the game and review it.

Feedback from friends that traveled.

The fan experience was excellent. it would be hard for us not to cheer for OU the remaining of their season.

Their fans are great. Tailgates welcome to all, food and beverage ,you name it. Just good people that love their team and school but decent humans to opposing fans that travel.

My parents were there with friends. Went to eat Friday night and met a few fans. Went to pay for their dinner and the Oklahoma fan had picked up the tab for the entire group. They also said all the fans were super nice and welcoming.

 

[UpstateVol613]

Wow!! I was waiting for him to say the scheme is “infallible” Not a good look throwing your players under the bus.

 

[volsagain]

Is Jackson Arnold really that bad or was it OUs offensive line?

Costed them a player for the season…almost looked identical to Bru’s injury

 

[UTSuave’]

Great video.. So happy for Josh and the players.

 

[UTSuave’]

Jaxson Moi was a beast last night. It's amazing we can rotate guys in that are relatively unknown and have them dominate.

Loved his fire!…

[Orange_Crush]

Does anyone know if there is any youtoob update from the "If he was any good, he'd be at OU" guys? I need to see it.

 

[drvenner]

Jackson Ross and Max Gilbert had good games, too. Weapons.

Agreed. Ross had a bad first game last year. Since then, when needed, he has been elite.

 

[drvenner]

I know a lot of you don't appreciate the humor of my dad jokes. Fair warning: I am about to drop one about coffee. I would ask that you consider embracing and enjoying it. If you don't like it, then I guess there will be a big brew ha ha.

We will beat Georgia .

Glad we're good enough to beat the opposing team and the officials.

 

[Billy Antrim]

Lottttttta cope on social media.

“Whatever, Oklahoma isn’t any good.”

“Whatever, this proves that Tennessee’s offense can’t perform on the road.”

“Whatever, blah blah blah blah”

Why can't they just stfu and see how it plays out?

Pearce still on a milk carton. 4 games now.

I dont agree with that. He was constantly getting chipped last night. He was in on 2 sacks IDK if they gave him any credit for the 2 but, he was around the ball.
