Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Mercenaries defecting


Question 1:

How is he still playing CFB. Doesnt he have grandkids yet?

Question 2:

Who would allow this dude near their program?

Comment: In a different world he does the mature thing an waits his turn. Instead of being a selfish short sighted idiot teenager, he sticks it out. Works, earns his starting role, sticks to his commitment. Makes MORE money in NIL, increases draft stock by showing can play in best league - also showing he's a good teammate, as well helping his committed team at a position of need, as well as learn valuable life lessons and leadership.

Good luck, but not really.

No. It was just a joke. Seeing how much you dish, I assumed you would take it as such.

For the record, I have nothing but respect for anyone who signed that check, regardless of which service they signed it in. As Army Intelligence, I was the brunt of many jokes and developed a thick skin. Didn't mean to offend.
Well I don’t want anything to get misconstrued - I come from a long standing Navy family. But I did not personally serve.

Thank you for your service, though. 👍🏻

I know the jokes. I’ve heard many if not all.

I can handle jokes about me. But I thought you were applying your opinion of me to the larger Navy & Marine Corps family.

My apologies.
 
Last thought before some chores. Everyone yesterday and today kept telling me the game must have been nerve racking to be at. Weirdly it never was. Scouts honor. Especially when I realized they were headed into the endzone I was sitting in. I truly never doubted i just got impatient watching all the close calls that could have turned it into a blowout. (For us)

I believe Neyland in the month of October is going to give this team the time and juice it needs to collect their chit and grow.

They need you and us right now though, so do what you can when or if you go.
Don’t worry, my wife is worth 10 fans. I go home deaf and beat to hell.

Grandfather 1 - Navy, Grandfather 2 - Army, Uncle - Marine, FiL - Air Force, Me - Army, Sister - Army, Daughter - Army wife. Much respect to all.

But don't get me started on Space Force...





...easy SF guys...joking.

Oxymoran. "Army Intelligence..." Amirite?
 
Can’t wait to watch a lot of people look like real dumbasses when Nico balls out this week. Never seen so many armchair QB’s in my life.
If any of them knew what they were looking at, they'd know our offense is really close to lighting people up. There are 1-2 guys blowing stuff each play and that effects Nico. Nico's problems do not start with him. If we get these guys playing like they should, Nico will look how we all think he should, imo.

Split family lol.

2 Grandfathers - Navy
1 Uncle - Navy
2 Uncles - Marines
1 Cousin - Navy
1 Cousin - Marines
 
I’m sure someone else has already mentioned this, but Nico still has less than 10 games of actual experience and most of that was in scrub time.

He’s started in 5 games against Power 5 programs (Iowa, NC State, OU, Arkansas and Florida) and is 4-1…that’s pretty damn good IMO.

Does he have lots of room to grow? Yes.
Is he as awful as some on here think? Absolutely not.
Will he be much better in a month than he is now? I think so.
