Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[SugarCC]

Must've missed the discussion, but Strange Darling, Smile 2, and Longlegs has gotten this year's season started off RIGHT.

Excellent screenplays with the production and acting to support.

Really want to see Strange Darling.

Everything about Longlegs was great (especially the production and feel of it), except for the last half/ending. Ending was terrible. Many writers are having a hard time sticking the landing.

Interesting fact: Heupel (thus far) and Fulmer have almost identical career win percentages of 74% (Fulmer edges him out at 74.5% to Heupel’s 74.3%).

Crazy given

1) Fulmer was handed a good situation

Vs

The worst situation in UT history.

And...

2) 90s SEC opposition wasn't nearly as elite as it is now. I just looked at the talent last week, every team not named Vandy and Miss St are top-26 in the team talent composite. That's 14 out of 16 teams LOL. We are merely top 20 (thus far, about to be top 10) and we're still reeling in wins at the same rate Fulmer was.

By every incoming talent metric, we are just about to get started.

I would mention Curt Watson but too few even remember that Blue Angel

I read a story were Curt said landing on an aircraft carrier at night was more heart stopping than anything he did with the Blue Angels

Another conspiracy theory. People are claiming there were many outcome-altering no-calls in Edey's favor on the regular in college basketball? They didn't balance out? How many hundreds of people in collusion did that take?

Takes about 5 or 6 officials. In college you get the same refs often.

 

[OrangeVolMan]

What a break for Bammaw.

How do you come back in to lead team to comeback win and then decide you can’t play the next week.

 

[mrMet]

Tbf, Bijan and Gibbs are currently 7th and 10th in rushing yards, respectively.

Should really consider APY for them. They’re dynamic however they touch the ball

ML grade is a D+ on LA if it were my money I’m playing the LA ML…let the live ML cook high into the plus money and pounce on it

So you're saying LA wins?

 

[jave36]

ML or spread?

ML is what I was looking at. Seemed like a safe bet that MIN wins the game

I bought this one on Amazon. It's actually a little bit more than it was a few weeks ago when I made my purchase. It still has a $50 off coupon right now. I use a fire stick to stream YouTube TV, ESPN, etc.

For my screen I just upgraded to the 150" one.

I mounted it the side of my house next to my patio. You can get screens that have self supporting stands.

As to Audio. The Projector has a built-in speaker but it's really not adequate. I have a Bluetooth speaker that I use. The Projector has Bluetooth but I've had issues getting it to connect so I just use an aux cable. I really want to improve my setup somehow to incorporate surround sound.

Are you happy with this setup? I have been thinking about getting a projector for our living room, but haven’t wanted to spend the money on the name brand projectors. This is cheaper than I can get any TV. I realize it is only 1080, but most of what I watch is only streaming 1080 anyway. Looks to be a great deal.

How is the team doing?

Ranked top 10 I believe……got a couple studs

Best recap of the Bama game

No team has won their game following playing the Lions all year. TIFWIW

I’m on rams +3.5. Bought a point and used a 30% boost

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Guys I found out who the mystery recruit is

That's a very niche stat lol. I'm guessing the sample size on that is small. Sounds like nobody is sold on that game though so I might pass. Definitely not doing the spread, maybe the ML on Vikings if anything. Rams have looked abysmal on defense I just can't put any money on them.

6 game sample size. Just an interesting nugget to note when betting

Road favorites have went 16-2 ATS since week 5. The books have been getting cooked by the public and that trend is due to change

May not happen tonight but that’s why I’m betting +3.5 lol

 

[Ten_Titans]

What a break for Bammaw.

And us. Tea leaving this far out may be a fool's errand but it would seem to be very beneficial for Bama to win out, if we are going to be allowed to lose one more and still make it.

 

[Devo182]

You can only play the schedule that's put in front of you.

No doubt and you also can't lose 3-34 in your sole ranked game all season.

Can't lose another game. Schedule way too weak.

 

[mrMet]

There’s a dog here that’s going to win outright I believe

jif for the millennial whipper snappers.

sorry my jif posting still doesn’t still work. I’m an old woman, so I’ll work on my jif posting for now.


Edit: way to go Jen! You managed to post a picture in between slurping down the Metamucil, post the right brand of peanut butter () and still be able to find the post button thingy.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Bet he would be considered top 3 player if he played for Bama.

 

[CABVOL]

Josephs has really stepped up his game this year. I remember reading, maybe in the spring?, that Josephs took note of how dominant Pierce was last year; causing him to decide to work harder in the offseason.

Safe to say, it’s paying off young man. Congrats!

 

[TrippieRedd]

Again, like I previously I would not be surprised to see this kid go pro after this season.

He’s career as a back up is honestly more impressive than a lot of draft picks in previous years that were full time starters.


One of my all time favorite players here.
