Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[COOKEVOL]

100%. I thought about pursuing a PhD program after I got my Masters. I just couldn't justify the financial and time sacrifices to my family. I respect the folks who continue down that path.

Same. I work two jobs (full and part) so time is my biggest hurdle.

@TrippieRedd @TNDCVol

I did the same thing for today again

 

[drvenner]

That's awesome. Mind saying in what discipline? Long ago, I got to the doorstep of a doctorate...and rannnnn.

Probably something to do with soil.

I did Albert Ramos Vinolas in Tennis -450 for my day 2 bet. I didn't realize my Manchester City bet wasn't until Saturday haha. So far so good. @SpringBokVol

Can’t tell if this is satire or not, but I love how some people on here use the ignore function as if it deletes people from existence lol

Yeah, that's right. I still exist.

 

[drvenner]

How'd you do?

Not so well, apparently. He didn't see the copperhead.

 

[rikberry31]

Agreed, though part of that was schematic. Against empty, I think UGA had an ILB spy and different assignments at OLB/DE. Bama destroyed it by attacking the edge with Milroe and a lead blocker. UGA adjusted in the second half and 32 played much better.

They were sliding a linebacker to the weak side most of the second half.

What amount did y’all start with? I did $20.
I’m in on this too. I backed Liverpool-750 with a tennis -575 to get it down under -500 to start.

 

[JCVol00]

Rumor has it we will wear orange helmets this weekend

I did $10 to start. Up to $14.64 on Liverpool moneyline today at -555. Sounds like Liverpool can sink all of us haha

How are you only getting -750 on Liverpool money line? Even my horrific local betting app is giving -555.

It will be total Bologna if Liverpool loses.

That’s on DKs now so that’s what I took and why I paired it with another.

 

[drvenner]

Maybe I will not be a fan any longer

Wow. Just wow.

These need to be thrown into a furnace and never brought back

They are sweet looking, a lot of potential for sweet uniform combos. Hopefully we get rid of bvs with them this weekend

I think they’re hideous.

Now, the cream helmet mock-ups I’ve seen with cream unis… phew

It is a weird feeling going into every game having a very hard time finding a path for our opponents victory.

Pate bringing up BVS does got me thinking though.

Heupel still has to prove he can go a full season without a stinker and losing a game we shouldn't lose. Arguably in his first season we didn't really blow it. Maybe the Pitt or Purdue games.

The USCjr mizzou and Florida no shows do come to mind.

We do however...kinda have a long history of blowing it against lesser opponents. Superior teams coming up one game short. Even back to Neylands first 7 seasons where he was 54-2-5. Only two of those seasons had a loss and the others had one tie. Just kinda weird how we could be that dominant and not have a 10-0 record in any of them. Only 1938 was unblemished. There's even the weird loss to a bad Miss St team in 1950. Dickey was super close a lot. Majors always blew it at some point. Fulmer blew it a ton, like losing to Memphis somehow. 01 blowing it against UGA and LSU.

Even us at least finishing 10-2 with losses to UGA and Bama would be one of the few times we've ever not blown it against an inferior team at some point in the year.

Big opportunity for Heup to establish a more consistent program. I think our guys have the right mindset to not be complacent, but we do indeed have to contend with that history.
