Recruiting Football Talk VIII

He’s definitely proven me wrong and I’ve been impressed with Ricky.

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if he made his way onto the the SEC freshman team or whatever.

He’s definitely bought in to whatever Willie is selling him. I hope he keeps improving he can be a corner stone for a few years if so.
 
We had a VN copperhead post before the UF game again. @TN-POSSUM cry-babied around claiming the wasn't a "true" VN copperhead, because he had a few posts already. However, it seemed to be just enough juice to push the Vols to a win over Florida.

The Vols remain undefeated when a VolNation member who has never posted, or posted very little, makes a comment in here.

We're gonna need someone to step up and make their first post to insure a win over Bama!

I credit the win to @OGbabyaviVol taking the initiative and getting the thread up early. You playing with copperheads, is what caused Nico to fumble.

Might sound crazy, but if I were Heupel I would make Nico live in scrimmage situations this week during practice. I would obviously expect the guys on defense to pull back and not take shots at him, but he's not going to figure out how to perform in the face of pressure unless he's getting that pressure in practice.

I’m so tired of seeing the narrative of this OL being the problem to all of Nico’s problems when in reality it’s neither. Would you rather have this OL or JG’s OL?!?…my point…QB’s before Nico have had so much worse.this OL is manageable compared to what we’ve witnessed over the years…if you know your OL can’t hold a block on passing downs then you need to scheme to your advantage and give Nico the green light to run for a gain or roll away from the pressure buying time which is why this is a obvious coaching problem…Teams are loading the box daring Nico to beat them down field which means blitz/pressure (stopping the run)..scheme up your tight ends on short dump routes or screens and all of this sh**t goes away and everything opens up again like it use to…Arkansas gave the whole sec the blueprint to stopping this offense.props to them for digging up the Tulsa tape..it’s been fun while it lasted but now you’re going to see if JH is the real deal or not earning his paycheck…he needs to get back in the lab and start drawing up plays.
tl;dr
