Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[jave36]

Here is another trend I am seeing, in addition to poor play and coaching scared in away games… we lose our cool way too easy and let the opposition get under our skin that results in stupid penalties and doing stupid things. Just like what Omar did shoving that fan… That is losing your cool under pressure. We are extremely undisciplined, and that shows up a lot in the procedure penalties we have, as well as the personal foul and unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.

Sooo many pre snap penalties. Again, I blame the lack of tempo throwing off our guys from what they're used to, but you just can't have that many no matter what.

I just saw that Grayson McCall hit. That was violent. Three guys collided at the same time. Complete energy transfer. Sheesh

Last year's hit or did he get hit again?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Nods along.

No you wouldn't!

Yes I would. Arkansas sucks. Sure, id be disappointed but that last night was pathetic.

 

[85SugarVol]

Last year's hit or did he get hit again?

He got hit again yesterday

 

[JT3]

This is a wow. Are we better off with Johnson and Davis starting at tackle?

NO!

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Last year's hit or did he get hit again?

This weekend, he got blasted again. Taken off an a stretcher but was released late last night.

 

[85SugarVol]

NO!

Davis & Johnson graded better against Oklahoma
-than-
Heard & Campbell graded against Arkansas

Well the odds makers still believe in the Vols Spread vs Florida is still 19.5 as of today.

Easy money

 

[rjd970]

Seeing all the reaction to the Vandy game has made today much more bearable.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Glad to see him apologize but he will be suspended I’m sure for the UF game.

He BESS not be if Burton won't

 

[HighRockvol]

If he’s suspended our coaching staff is a joke

Yea screw that when nothing was ever done to Burton never saw anyone bring it up outside volnation… and he hit a woman

 

[mrMet]

Well the odds makers still believe in the Vols Spread vs Florida is still 19.5 as of today.

My apps are showing 16.5

 

[GVol1966]

Block very well which is what we brought him in for. All those 2 TE sets work because of him. Those ones we refused to run last night.

So basically you just admitted we didn’t use him so why did we need him???

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Ok VN…..

I’m in Fort Myers. Do I leave tomorrow, or wait till Tuesday morning to beat Hurricane Milton?

Trust your eyes bro. Imagine if Davis and Johnson III played 50 + snaps last night. We all upset but we also gotta be logically.

 

[MarcoVol]

Trust your eyes bro. Imagine if Davis and Johnson III played 50 + snaps last late. We all upset but we also gotta be logically.

I’ve seen a couple replays from last night where Heard didn’t even get a fingertip on a rusher. Looked like he was wearing cement cleats

Hey VN we could use some prayers from my son. He is a police officer in Nashville and was forced to use deadly force Friday night. He had only been with the force a year and one day. I will not share the video for content reasons, but if any of you are in LE or similar fields I would like your feedback. Just type in October 4 officer involved shooting Nashville in YouTube. My stomach has been in knots. I am just glad he is still with us. Great kid, graduated APSU Suma Cum Laude. He is a mess as you can imagine.

Get him some help if you can.

Praying 4 him.

We didn't use him last night because we had ad play calling. We've used him all year in 12 personnel very successfully.


Your question should be "why did we bring in an amazing stud to help us run 12 personnel then not run it?"

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Glad to see him apologize but he will be suspended I’m sure for the UF game.

Our coaching staff is soft if they do…

 

[engineerVOL]

Last year's hit or did he get hit again?

He got hit again Saturday. Went to the hospital.

Yeah. Heard is a bust.

 

[engineerVOL]

The last two drives were some of the worst. I immediately noticed him getting beat and you shouldn’t notice that.

 

[MarcoVol]

Are coaching staff is soft if they do…

If our coaching staff punishes a player for player’s own actions that are clearly wrong then our coaching staff is soft?
