Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[PlanetVolunteer]

Funny reading all the UCF fans that double down on their thinking that Heupel didn't recruit well there and wouldn't have continued to do well there.

Looking into it more

Heupel's recruit average was greater in every one of his cycles than any prior class ever at UCF

He even had the best class in the AAC in 2019. Like, c'mon ppl.

@butchna spreading the charm to the OU fans. What they don't know he was using his smug reverse psychology on them. Good job.

So...33 will make it a better game? Are they that close to Oklahoma talent wise in your opinion?

R.I.P. Keith. The ultimate country music voice.

This is simple, Okie had a pathetic offense, Arky does not. I said we needed 33 points or more "to win COMFORTABLY".

We need our starting OTs out there...them not being out there was a problem.

They’ve only beaten each team by 10 points.

Is their defense and offense really that good??

Beating OKST is Impressive……I guess

We all need friends like that.

Happy Chooseday. May we all choose to be closer to our faith.

September 24, 2024: Take the time to evaluate where you are in life and what you need to do next to fulfill your commitments. Your tendency is to do nothing, but there are still things that need to be done, both physically and spiritually. Ask for wisdom and direction when it feels like you are stuck right here. James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

No need to use a $10 word when a .5¢ one will serve the purpose.

Didn’t even need to watch the video because I already assumed this. I honestly don’t care what the final score says, we dominated OK in every facet of the game.

Our defense was mean, fast and suffocating at every level. Never seen a TN in my 28 years that plays with the intensity of this one. Every play you have multiple guys flying to the ball like madmen.

On offense, it was nice to see us stick with the run game even though it wasn’t working until it did work. The yards eventually came but they weren’t easy yards. There was also several times that OKs field cost us some yards.

I don’t know about y’all, but my thinking is Heupel is going to be turning up the heat this week on our guys this week we're gonna come out swinging against Arkansas like we did at LSU in 2022.

Another thing that happened late, that we REALLY can't let happen against Green and Milroe...is losing contain and missing tackles on that stupid backup quarterback...dang that was frustrating as hell-o to watch.

Yeah it was frustrating. But I heard Hubbs say we got cute and had our 4th sting dline and 4th string LB’s in. Only once they crossed the 10 we put in our starters.

Agreed. It was aggravating at times to watch, but it was clear our approach in the second half was kill clock and occasionally take a shot to see if we can get into scoring position. Let the defense do the rest.

Idk if we open it up vs. Arky as I can see the run game playing pretty well but that could depend on OL health. Need a young guy to step up and replace Dayne asap.

If Arkansas can beat A&M this weekend we’re looking at another ranked primetime matchup. Should be fun.

Cause he can’t stand to just write a positive article. Always has to be the turd in the punchbowl.

Things couldn’t be better. Most complete team since the early 00’s. Program synergy is ideal. What’s this jerk writing about? Strength of schedule? Really? 5 of the top 6 teams are in conference. We’re just fine.

Oh, if only we had an expanded playoff where strength of schedule mattered less…wait…

Dude just can’t help himself. Once a snarky egotist, always a snarky egotist.

Is that not precisely what the headline said as well? That it may not matter? I'm not a fan of his, but the outrage seems misplaced, and it seems to be hurting you a lot more than him.

I almost forgot about the video, it was perfect. Was almost haunting with Johnny and June both, had to go and watch it again, so awesome. Yeah it was a Johnny Cash song from the moment he redid it, its not a NIN song anymore. Funny thing is I didn't love it when NIN did it, thought it was alright, but I don't really like NIN anyways.

Not a NIN song anymore? Lulz. Trent Reznor is a genius.

 

[Orange_Crush]

You could be correct but who knows what the committee thinks or will think.

UT seems to be the hot chick at the dance this year. Unless there is a SERIOUS misstep, the committee will think that UT == viewers and headlines.

 

[Orange_Crush]

I don't think it will get down to your ooc schedule, at least for SEC teams.

This.

 

[Orange_Crush]

I still take it as passive aggressive. Throwing seeds of doubt when there’s so much else good to talk about.

You just said that you didn't read the article, and took offense to the headline that said that the strength of schedule won't matter. I think you're blinded by you. Again, I'm not a fan of his, but there may be better places to put this energy?

 

[rikberry31]

I’ll defer to your memory versus my old worn out one. Oh, I’ll look it up tomorrow and if I’m wrong, I’ll admit it. At least I’m not that stupid dude that lost and now has to shove a burrito up his hinny. I’ll just be ‘I was wrong’ and no need to violate my private parts. Idiot seeking likes.

Probably should've gone with blue font. Disclaimer: Kiffin's Krimson Korner it was not actually Lane Kiffin.

 

[mrMet]

Ouch! Hope you didn’t blow all your bourbon money on that one!

Hell, dogs of 5.5 or more this year were 13-2 against the spread before last night. I’m just an idiot for relying on Trevor fkn Lawrence

Instead of hating on Morgan and his musical direction of late or the errors in judgment in his personal life; I am here this AM to thank him for his loyalty and promotion of the Vols as well as for his personal perseverance in working through some self inflicted wounds.

He is a mega star known worldwide. Cringe if you want, but acknowledge he has the platform to promote the Big Orange brand worldwide - wherever he wants to take it - with the full endorsement of UT, players, coaches, administration and the general fan base. I want our homeboy doing what he is doing for the Vols.
