Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[tnhunter 10]

Why is his profile pic still him in UT swag? He left. He doesn't get to rep the T anymore.

He's trying to troll. He's doing the "vol" down like horns down.

 

[Orange.]

Well, yeah. But again, where is Cam?

I thought I saw Cam a couple of times. Returning kickoffs (fair catch, prolly because of the turf); that may have been Boo. But at RB for a brief bit when DSamp was being relieved. Haven't rewatched yet to verify.

Heup is smart to play the long game and be conservative with bodies. No college team has ever played a season as long as what we're hoping to play.

Naw, it was Thomas. That angle doesn't show it clear and the announcers did say it was Carter but it was definitely Thomas. He's put a couple big hits on already.

Thanks for clarifying.

 

[BaldBiker]

Surprised Mizzou fell out of the top 10 after that thrilling/gritty 2 Ot performance yesterday against SEC juggernaut Vanderbilt.

 

[Devo182]

We've doubled our odds since the preseason...




and if you take a step back from a 10,000 foot view, this is still wild to see. At some point in the last 15+ years many of us had begun to lose hope we'd ever be consistently near the top once again.

Feels good man.

 

[Orange.]

I thought 23 did?

Naw, it was Thomas. That angle doesn't show it clear and the announcers did say it was Carter but it was definitely Thomas. He's put a couple big hits on already.

Boo was there to throwing a shoulder but Thomas knocked him aside as he laid the lick. Boo landed on top of bruh. That's why the announcers called Boo's name. I also thought it was Boo until I rewatched the replay. Jakobe with the mega hit. But bruh wasn't scoring either way. Closing speed. A+ tacklers.

B2A.

I saw Seldon on the field for offense. I noticed him, but they blew a whistle for a penalty or timeout or something. I'm not sure if he stayed in for the next play after the whistle or played any more.

This was a tough time for him to return. Trying to knock off some rust against the OU defense during a tight game isn't exactly an ideal situation.

Hopefully he comes back vs Ark 100%. That could be a better game to come back in anyway.

I know their qb situations are a joke but I’m really surprised Hyatt and Tillman are both basically non factors in the league still.

What I mean is, this forum has a handful of guys who have been commenting in here for a long time so your thoughts and opinions are listened to, while newcomers are generally ignored from what I've seen. Which is fine, it's yalls thing and you guys are basically a tight knit friend group, so i appreciate you responding to the new guy. Go vols!

It's also because a lot of random drop in trolls come in here for a few days or a week or two. Just dropping random thoughts unrelated to current conversation or being straight up confrontation with other posters here that have been commenting for awhile.

Matt LeFleur fixed Malik Willis in two weeks. Titans couldn’t do anything with him for two years.

Look like Titans should have given LeFleur the keys and moved on from Vrabel.

 

[DD4ME]

We are a top 5 team until we beat Bama. Bama will have already beat UGA. UGA will be fightibg for life and their game will be a coin toss. Then we will be top 3. We will play TX for the SEC.

 

[Ace]

AP is the weirdest man...

Kansas State drops 10 spots for getting blown out by BYU. BYU doesn't move up even one spot in the polls though.

I do think Missouri should drop, but they still won and they fell 4 spots, don't think Penn State or Utah did enough IMO to jump them.

No clue why Notre Dame jumped a spot either. But I'll take us climbing into the top 5, a big win and hopefully Arkansas is ranked when we go to Little Rock in 2 weeks.

[UTSuave’]

I hate the rule and especially it’s subjective nature but I haven’t, personally, seen them differentiate between qb and normal player when the qb is attempting to pass.

They should…all I’m saying.all things considered

Where is Cam Seldon?

Injured, but Bishop's emergence has helped curb the need to rush him.

 

[butchna]

Pretty easy to say..........best portal pickup of 2024.

Talked to his grandfather at breakfast this morning. Cussin those refs.

 

[SmokinBob]

@SmokinBob hasn’t got here yet! @drvenner you may have to circle back and help me find her.
She’s probably stuck watching a funny cat video that on loop mode and hasn’t realized that it’s the same thing over and over.

Here’s to hoping that she is somewhere between us…

 

[Orange.]

Not gonna lie. . . I thought the 1st Quarter Boys took an L only to be saved by a 66yd passing TD with :11 left in the quarter.

I know @BigSteve09 had to be chalking it up

Second thought in my mind when Nico threw the dime and Thornton scorched them. Even @'d Big Steve in real time. It's really fun here.

Vols vs UTjr..lawdy that would be epic

 

[Orange.]

Looking forward to the Arkansas **** talkers to say how they're going to manhandle us on the road, and then when we go B2A part 5 on them, they'll go "meh, we aren't good anyway, they will lose at least 5 games this year"

AR covers
Ole Miss and TX cruises
LSU wins

Herbstreit gained a little more respect from me.
He also commented on the field too and saying how bad it looked..(I think)

Good job, Herbie. I'm happy to say it! We didn't even mind when you accidentally called the Game Maxims the "10 Commandments" because you calling out the Okies when needed. And you were correct to bring them up -- particularly in that game.

If you're reading this, an "oskie" is an interception. The sideline used to shout "Oskie!" to the field to alert the defense to start blocking.
