Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[drylo]

But when we win, it's glorious.

My favorite genre — Bammers watching the the Tide take a fat L from the Vols.

 

[Adam Sandler]

He is going to learn this Sat

Get it on the twitter machine! Facebook and instagram too! Tik tok, whatever ya got!

 

[captainfalcon777]

Wide Receivers arent good.

@me

All the other throws are Nimrod drops. Dude can run routes tho at the very least

 

[Adam Sandler]

The stadium quotes from DeBoer are fake, ok? How many different people need to say it?

Who cares. If we get enough people to think it’s real, maybe some of the people round me who didn’t seem to give a damn about 1st and 2nd down will get their crap together.

 

[Weezer]

So you quit at a million? Come on erryone, lets make sure we get him there asap.

Everybody in this fanbase needs to watch and internalize this. It is not and has never been the scheme, we are just not executing right now, mainly Nico and Tackles. It is what it is. Hopefully it improves.

Like Heup said it’s everyone. Nimrod should be ashamed of himself for that performance. It was as bad as Heard against Arky

 

[UT = Checkmate]

so our OL sucks.

 

[Adam Sandler]

He ain’t wrong.

Amen! But end of the day, if they don’t make plays, whose fault is it? The players? And then it’s their fault for how long?

Get the oline playing to the level they should be so we have second and short instead of long and Nico has time to sit comfortably in the pocket and make the throws he’s capable of. Really think that’s our biggest issue right now.

 

[Adam Sandler]

“The one thing you got goin in yo life that you can obviously make some money off of”

Did he just call his kids stupid and incapable of being successful of anything but football?

 

[UTK]

I love when it is so loud, you don't realize how loud it really is. I thought we were too quiet at times during this game.

Correct me if I’m wrong, it came across loud at points early and in the 4th but a lot of it it seemed quieter than ideal maybe because of a nervous energy? I’d like to see our crowd keep that noise every single time Bamas on offense regardless of the score or what is happening in the game, it really could be the difference in an L or W in what appears to be a pretty even match up

 

[UTSuave’]

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

That is very clearly AI generated

Shhh

The robots are on our side

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

He ain’t wrong.

This is why I'm not worried. We've been stopping ourselves not the opposition. Once we find a rhythm our offense will be back to being unstoppable.

 

[jordan4vols]

That's a deep fake.

Fake as hell. You don’t think this would be on the ESPN ticker and the lead of every show on SEC Network.

Sarcasm guys. Making fun of the ff and random twitter guy getting run

When I was a teenager in a small town in GA, my cousin was a year older than me. He was a decent guy, but was a pretty loud mouth, cocky guy. I think that got him on the wrong side of the local sherrif that just didn't like him, so he made extra effort to make my cousin's life hard.

Finally, he gave my cousin a ticket for speeding when he wasn't speeding. My cousin took it to court and actually made the sheriff look like a liar idiot in front of the judge. My cousin got off.

You'd think the harassment would have stopped, but there isn't logic with some small-town sheriffs. There's a certain ego and feeling of empowerment.

After that, he harassed the hell out of my cousin. It wasn't even subtle. Lasted for years.



That's what's going on with UT. NCAA felt like we didn't suffer enough for Pruitt. They tried to make us pay and we made them look like lying idiots to the 'judge' and through the media. So now they want us to unofficially pay for Pruitt as well as NIL lawsuit.

On these penalty issues, UT needs to pull together the statistical argument as well as video footage of what's not being called. Send them to the Tennessee AG, cc-ing the NCAA and several of the biggest media outlets. That's such a huge story (a major NCAA state university pressing unfair treatment to their state AG), the media would have to cover it. Not to mention, the state AG has already shown a willingness to go after the NCAA.

If the TN AG pressed it legally, that gives us discovery. No telling what shows up if communications have to be provided and people have to go under oath. I'd say the NCAA wouldn't want that.

The only thing you can do with the NCAA, when they think they are the highest power in the land, is show them the higher power.

here a song…” I shot the Sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy…”

Maybe it was subsequently written about the demise of that Sheriff.

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.

Lance heard is the same also
5-6 starts
I have said he sucks and complained about him but he’s a true sophomore with 5 starts

 

[JCVol00]

The more I think about James Pearce's forced fumble it makes me remember another #27 for Tenneseee forcing a Gator fumble on the goal line in 1998. Both plays were touchdown saving in a game where points were a premium. Hopefully the offense this season can gain some traction like that Tennessee offense did in the latter part of the season.

The FF Pearce forced doesnt get talked about enough, if he didnt make that play then it could have been a much different game

 

[JCVol00]

I heard Debor also thinks Nico sleeps with a night light and that Neyland’s environment is nothing compared to Vanderbilt’s FWIW

 

[Jackcrevol]

It was.

twss?

 

[Vol464]

Glitch is fine. He's just tired of you morans. Needed a break. He felt like his IQ was falling off a cliff.

63 is a cliff?

Effort and conditioning have little to do with experience. In fact they are two of the things that help make up for inexperience.

Heard’s play at the tail end of the UF game shows he can play solid football, he just needs to demand that from himself every single snap instead of waiting until the game is on the line.

 

[Jackcrevol]

He ain’t wrong.

Cubelic is one of my favorite CFB personalities. he is usually positive, but tends to say it like it is

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

This isn’t Glitch’s burner account is it? I don’t trust it. Can anyone confirm having met @Glitch and @OGbabyaviVol at the same time to verify separate identities?

I am way better looking!

 

[knoxvol52]

The way some individuals turned on Nico and CJH this past Saturday is sickening. Everyone hyped Nico up before start of season and now he is struggling in his first season as a college QB, now the narrative went from he will be the best QB ever at TENNESSEE to Nico just isn't what everyone said. Good grief.

BTW: I may carry water for the officials but I would NEVER turn on the Coaches or the Players of the team I pull for. Also, I don't care what these players are getting paid they're still 17-21 year old young men.

Somebody's been watching VN. lol
