Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Who do you think wins? I think Alabama probably wins.

but seriously yes i agree bama pulls it out in a very tight one. Kirby is going to unleash everything but I fear bama may still be fully stocked post-saban and have the better team chemistry as it stands right now. but its the closest game to a coin flip ive had all year. will be a great game to watch albeit the wrong color uniforms
 
Yep. Sugar industry went to the gov't. "Here's a bunch of studies we paid for that show that fat is evil and your kids should be eating bowls of candy in milk for breakfast!"

Govt: "Look at this food pyramid. This is the ticket."

My grandparents, eating their fatback: "That's the stupidest **** I've ever seen."

Current culture: "What's up with all these morbidly obese people? Where did this juvenile diabetes come from? Why has heart disease increased? Guess we're not cutting enough fats. Put more sugars in the low-fat health food and let's all get better at this weight management thing."

in my re watch of the game, both christian harrison and will brooks made a few fantastic plays in the open field that helped kill drives. Our secondary really played lights out that game beside the garbage time big play, which could have been worse if not for effort
I am not picking on Brooks... I just noticed this yesterday, but did you see how lost he was on the last TD Oklahoma score - the rushing QB flip TD. If you watch the play again, watch the motion man and Brooks follow him but as the play is snapped Brooks is expecting to hand him off to the DB as the slot guy breaks inside - either that or he should have just followed him.

But either way, dude was wide open in the top of the endzone and the QB never saw him... and scrambled for the TD anyway.

I hate death 🙏
Death is never a great experience for those of us left to mourn the loss of our loved one. As a believer, I rejoice for other believers that are called to their Heavenly home to be in the presence of the creator for eternity. I pray that those that don't know the peace that comes with that understanding would have their hearts softened and their eyes opened to the calm and peace that comes from accepting that gift of salvation.
 
Any of you ever hunt ginseng? This is in the "mountains of Tennessee". . .

I have some behind my house. At least I did have some. Caught my neighbor literally 50 yards behind my house, right in the middle of my property digging it up. I said wtf do you think you are doing? He said I didn't think you would mind. I said is it ok if I go to your property and start taking your ****? He said he'd leave.

My mom passed away tonight. She finally submitted to dementia. I’m almost 48 years old and somehow I just feel like a sad kid inside.
Very sorry for your loss. The feeling is the same regardless of age. Lost mine in 1990 from cancer and she was only 59. I was 29 at the time and was crushed. Still kicking myself in the ass for all those days I wasn’t there and all the hardships I may have caused for her in my youth.
She now has a great grandchild named for her and all her great grandchildren know of her love, kindness and spirituality.
Embrace the sadness and let it lead to bigger things.

Very similar story. Lost my mom in 1990 to Cancer as well. At the time, I was stressing about Grad school. Wish had been more focused on Mom. And you are right, you have to 'work through the sadness' and not try to suppress that. Prayers for the family.

I get it. However. I dont base my musical choices on those of 22-24 yo women. Glad he is a VFL, still have no idea who he is.
You sure are goin on and on about him to “not know who he is”. If you don’t even know who he is, then how do you have an opinion on his music? I’m actually not surprised you are one of those “too cool for mainstream music” types.

Everyone wants to be my friend.

Who wouldn't want a Yeti for a friend?

I posted this in the game thread about J. McCoy and want others to see it. Huge play.

Jermod McCoy made one of the smartest football plays I have ever seen on that offsides. He saw the DR (I think Pearce) jump into the neutral zone and immediately extended his arms and used both hands to make contact with the OK receiver as the ball was snapped to cause the whistle and keep OK from having a free play to take a shot. Watch the play if you get a chance.

Phenomenal awareness....McCoy is a HUGE addition and is a future NFL CB. His timing on coverage hits to separate the ball is elite, he has great speed and physicality and incredible instincts and football IQ. Best DB we have had in a long time
We talked about this at our tailgate after the game…probably one of the smartest, most heads-up plays I’ve ever seen!
 
I've got to run to Murfreesboro Saturday morning for my nephews 1st birthday party. I'm going to try and get home to watch the Bama/GA game on the patio (weather may prevent that). I got a new 150" screen up from 100". Anxious to try it out before the Arkansas game.
Coming down to Middle Tennessee to slum with us peasants. Nice.
 
yeah, maybe im wrong about this, but always got the feeling Wanya joined our program at the worst time possible and at any other period would have been a proud VFL
He was having to hide his excitement when Trey had him put on the vols gear. He had to be sent out of the program due to Pruitt and Neiderloser’s failures.
