Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[jave36]

All the BTC talk...I wish I had started mining in 2008/09 when I first was made aware of the whole process.

A guy I knew set up a couple old PCs and mined then...no clue how long he held what he had gotten but if he kept it and sold when things were hot he's for sure a multi-millionaire now.

I told all my mining friends they were idiot nerds falling for a scam. One of many stupid things I've done.

Good luck, I thought rifle season started tomorrow in Tennessee

Catoosa quota hunt.

Have we let teams hang around or is that the best we are capable of doing? I am going with the latter and the stats back it up.

We took our foot off the gas offensively in the 2nd half at Norman. Heck, we didn't just take our foot off the gas, we applied the emergency brakes. Our offense hasn't performed even at first half OU levels since. I'm not trying to get into a debate about whether that was the best strategy to win that game. I'm just saying that there is a notable difference in the before that halftime and after.

19 points 184 total yards, only 1 series where we went over 50 yards. Scored just 2 TDs and then 1 FG...

No offense, but you're just flat out wrong.

2nd half against Kentucky was better. 2nd half against Bama was better even the 2nd half/OT against Florida was better.

Aye Big 14, you got any bball locks for the rest of the week?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I’m wondering does OSU do enough to beat Indiana but not so bad to hurt their chances of making the playoff? It’s not a rivalry game to OSU, and the B1G might ask them to “help a brother out” and keep the game looking competitive for IU.

I have a feeling we may see this. Should be able to tell in the 2nd half.

 

[Weezer]

I say it all the time. I also say does @Weezer $#!+ in the woods?

I do that on your front porch, late at night. So stop blaming the dog.

 

[drvenner]

What about 3 next year?

What about none next year?

No offense taken. There were stretches in those 2nd halves that were good. But none was a complete half. I just think dialing the offense back to protect the lead and the QB in that game produced psychological carryover for our offense.

Wow, totally different thought I had, mine was dinner will be great ..

I had venison one time in my life. It was good. Still, what a cute deer.

OK, I admit it. I was alive to see this. Excellent episode.

All I recall is the re runs on, I think. Never got too into it. Think it was a niche comedy.

Def liked Taxi, what a show.

Watching Tennessee-VA highlights on YouTube, posted by Hoa Tam Thanh Pho Tra Vinh. Which one of you is Hoa?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

What about none next year?

Not happening.

 

[Devo182]

Contrarian to the end.

I was the freakin busdriver when it came to Hooker and his heisman campaign. He fully deserved it.

I just call em like I see it. I presented a comp and stats of both. Just don't see the same argument for Sampson if Harris only finished 5th on a championship team and better stats.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Not happening.

Yeah, 8-9 wins.

Unless we just kill it and get several stud transfer portal guys.

Roster isn't great
Heuepl will never beat Kirby
Bubba and Fla are on the road.
Ita going to be a step back for sure.

Zero chance only 8 wins happens.

The roster is fine, almost the entire defense returns. Peyton Lewis is gonna be great. Our worst group is Oline (losing mays will suck) we’re bringing in the best Oline recruit.

O line is one of the biggest development positions.
Losing tons of depth on the D line
Linebackers are extremely young.

 

[Devo182]

Now do worst loses. We did this to ourselves. Maybe when learn to win in big environments on the road we will leave no doubt.

Does anyone care about worst losses?

Nobody is facing bad teams in the playoffs. Even in March Madness you might run into some meh, even bad teams with the format, FCS teams, and conference tournies.

Not here. You're facing the best of the best. Can you beat them or nah?

Won’t agree with the roster not being great.

I think we beat Florida. Bama will depend on who they grab from the portal at QB, because they ain’t rolling Ty out there.

Dylan Sampson won us a ton of games/kept us in a ton of games and I just don’t see a current RB on the roster to help do that next year if we need it.

We’re gonna need some portal DL. Losing Omari, Lott, Pearce and I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it, I think Josephs may go as well. He’s had a better career than a lot of guys that have been drafted previously that were starters in college.
