Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[DD4ME]

This is often really difficult for guys.

October 4, 2024: When you are faced with a task that is out of your wheelhouse and beyond the realm of your expertise, do not hesitate to ask for help. You will not be diminished in any way except that your ego might be bruised a bit. These are days of reality and humility that will undoubtedly produce spiritual growth. James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

This is an interesting new wrinkle for book makers.

Do they think this is just a Threat?

It's not fair to say Cam can't stay healthy. I think Heup is doing a great job being conservative with him. Still 12 games to go!

This is the right answer!

I understand I've been a little snappy this past week but I guess this flooding got to me more than I realized. Having family living in both N.C. and Cosby and Newport area really hit home. So I apologize for being an @$$ but I will never apologize for loving the area I grew up in. For every piece of crap person as some individuals think lives in Cocke County, there's 5 good individuals around the corner.

So accept the apology or not it's up to you.

As always Go Vols.

I hate that many on here are overlooking a tough game AT Arkansas against a former coach, and Florida, who embarrasses us on a yearly basis.

We’re fans. We can do that. It’s a confidence that was missing for most of a decade and a half. Let us enjoy it or get trampled by the mob of RF Morans.

I can promise you that the team and coaches ARE NOT going to overlook anyone this season.Or ever again.

16-0

To infinity and beyond!

Ok. 24 hrs later. Here is what I think I know (maybe I know I know). Josh Heupel is truly a football genius.

I truly believe that Tennessee went unto this game with a very similar plan as they have had all season. Maybe a few different looks and whatnot, but similar. Oklahoma (as per their coach) had been game planning this game since January. They were throwing looks at Tennessee that had not been shown on film. At some point early on in the game Heupel changes his strategy completely...and in doing so, also decides to give the rest of the SEC a wake up call. I truly don't think the team expected this change (but believed in their coach). Heupel made.a statement in this game to the rest of the SEC. You wanna grind it out? We are fully capable of doing that too.

Preach @BaldBiker Preach!

Why do people say such stupid stuff? It blows my mind..Arky will move the ball, they will probably turn it over, but they will score..at least some, so we can't afford for the offense to turtle half the game...we need points in that Arky game period.

I'm not saying we gotta serve a 50 burger...but I think we will need at least 33+ to win comfortably.

If we have our starting Ol out there, we should accomplish that...but if not...it could go badly.

Unfortunately for ar-Kansas, they score by rushing…that’s the absolute strength of our defense. Little pigs will be herded, corralled, slaughtered and BBQed by the 4th quarter.
If they can’t pass, it’s gonna be a long brutal game for them.

Heading down to Destin this afternoon for 9 days. Packing a lot of orange to represent!

UT
FSU
Colorado
Etc……

I found the greatest…….Sleepy Hollow (NY) HS

a Headless Horseman leads the team out? Genius

That’s awesome.
Beautiful horse too.

Padres need to win it all. Shildt then needs to hold up the WS trophy and say... "Philosophical Difference's!"

If we want to take a second rb in this class, who are the (potential) targets? Thinking guys we were recruiting are most likely. Next maybe guys who are uncommitted, have decommitted, or committed to a team that’s faltering?

- Kromah (known target)
- Morris (known target)
- Marquise Davis? (UK)
- Mills Knight? (Ole Miss)
- D Johnson? (Mich)
- I Groves? (GT)
- Tyliek Mitchell? (Uncommitted)
- d’shaun ford? (Uncommitted)
- Daniel anderson? (Decommitted from nd)
- Jamarion morrow (mz)
- Terrance Edwards (wvu)
- waden charles (ucf)
- dare I say… cam sparks?
- out of nowhere unknown?

Wouldn't mind having Ashton Jeanty from Boise State. Dude has Madden Moves. Nearly 500 carries and he hasn't fumbled, averaging 10.3 yds/carry.

I use the crutch method and rest them for 8+ hours and that seems to do the trick. I have no fancy equipment at all.

I need to prepare better to rest my briskets that long….i usually do about 3-4 hours

Shout out to @hooter vol . Member since 2009, has never posted, but always good for a like. I salute you, sir or madam. Don't want to assume your gender. Know that you are appreciated, and an integral part of the RF zoo.

 

[ConwayFitty]

Copperhead!

"Copperhead" should be the VolNation equivalent of Saban's "rat poison." All this media attention and talk about how we'll roll through Florida is a copperhead waiting to git ya! Come on coach I know you read the RF-make this happen for us!

 

[Glitch]

I’ll start a game thread tonight if @nicksjuzunk doesnt start one by then, if yall want me to

Maybe better than Glitch starting it, respectfully of course

I am having an issue in my crawl space. Could you come help me get it sorted out....Also, does this rag smell like chloroform to you?

He’s a junior likely going pro. And we don’t like to pay up like that for rbs.
