Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Had a dream we traded Albies for CMo

Need to marinate on that question.

He’s ****** up that daydream victimizing the minor leagues.

We will miss Dee Williams. I think Kicking will be an issue this year.

Kicking a** won't be an issue though.

What part of the kicking game are you worried about? Chance Campbell returned right? Jackson Ross is a serious threat. I think we'll have some dudes step up in the return game.

Edit: Not Chance - Charles. And I was wrong he's gone.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Well...good thing he wasn't a kicker.

two separate statements

He's just trying to keep the worry circle active.

Yeah anybody know who are punt returner will be? Seems like depth wise Boo would be better suited not doing it, but he is very dynamic with the ball in his hands

kicking, not punting.

Max Gilbert or JT Carver. Unproven.

Campbell used up his eligibility. I think we have some potential explosive returners. It’s not like Dee returned at Evan Berry/Cordarelle Patterson level…notch below.

Out of curiosity, why did you not call the police?

Full disclosure I was a firefighter doing training with a group of about 30 other FF's from several units. I was scared that PD would test it and not find anything (most of their field tests do not test for synthetics) and I would look like I was trying to get out of the training. If I had it to do over again I would have reached out to my shift commander and told him what happened and go from there. I still have no idea what can cause that type of reaction. My guess is some synthetic or God knows what.

I think Squirrel is the favorite for punt returner. I think Seldon, Boo, and Mike Matthews will get looks at KR

Josh Turbyville will be the kicker.

Yeah I figured squirrel is the safe bet back there

 

[GoodTimeVol]

Same situation every other UT defensive coach inherited.

Not at all true our DBs we’re absolutely terrible the first year and have improved statically every year after for the past 2.

@butchna

Riley, Olsen, Albies. Do nothing for me. Open up the wallet and get some names.

Dont see anyone on the Stripers roster i'm dying to call up. Harris will rehab and be ready.

Offload those three and find some younger dudes.

 

[Glitch]

Moore was brought in as an emergency qb and promised to let him see the field a little bit. I would guess that Merklinger would get the nod if he is anywhere close to being ready.

Gaston may be looking to get into coaching or teaching QBs. The longer he can learn under Heup the better for his future coaching prospects. Shoot. Heup may be able to pull a Voltello and bring him back on staff like Kirby with the baseball team.

 

[SoullessGinger32_]

Yeah and neither got a pass defense going because they were gone by year 3 lol. My point exactly. Pass defense takes longer to develop more than any other position. It's take continuity and experience. Something Marinez hasn't really had since he arrived. We will find out this year.

I like Cash Money a lot but people overreact to Orange and White type games… It would be great if he became a coach.

 

[LittleVol]

Defensive backfield looks pretty loaded. Boo Carter not a win?

One dude out of 3 recruiting years?
what about Gibson , Matthews, Slaughter,
McCoy and Turrentine?

 

[LittleVol]

He will be. Prob end up being the best DB since...EB.

That would be fantastic.
But you’re going to already place him above 8 year NFL Vet Cam Sutton?
2nd rounder Alontae Taylor?

Bryce Thompson in college was better than either even though he didn’t get drafted.

No way in hell I’d already place him above those
3 RIGHT NOW. Let him play Chattanooga at least haha. Geez….

 

[LittleVol]

“Will be” this season. And Gibson right now with Matthews bringing it. I get excited thinking about new minds coaching, but Martinez is doing way better than Little’s letting on.

I said he has to do better.
You think he doesn’t?

they’re 3 of the top 50 players in the league dude holy moly

I would argue interior d-line reciting has been worse than DB recruiting.

He already did that with Austin Lewis (S&C staff) and Parker Ball (OL Ga)
