Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[BigOrange15]

You realize that the post-PAT “breathers” are fake, right?

I’m surprised at how many of our fans still don’t understand that. Umarov hasn’t been hurt following those PATs. It’s something Heupel has them do after quick scores to rest the defense. He’s been doing it for 4 years.

And yes, none of those were Karic. He’s been healthy all year.

How does anyone not know this? They think we have a 90% injury rate specifically on PATs? lol

Buddy, Umarov hobbled off field in one of last two games. Same for Spraggins.

Point is we are losing a lot on Oline in 2025. We have some great building blocks, and in fact could really be better in long run. But we will need to infuse what's there, with older bodies while they grow.

Completely whiffing in 23 cycle hurt.

Were you born at home?

So Lil Born?

Doesn't matter if he'll never see it. It was an unnecessary negative take for no reason. That sort of negativity should always be rejected. The fact you can't see how bad your post was makes it not ridiculous.

Feels like you’re just crying for the sake of it. I’ve said a lot more negative **** than “maybe this tweet is criticizing heupel for playing time.” But if you want sperg out over it, I guess I can’t stop you. Have fun buddy.

Right. It’s not a play that leads to many injuries. Yet, Tennessee has a man down after half of them. And the funny thing is, it’s always a designated man every season. Last year, it was Lampley. Two years ago, it was Davis. This year, it’s Umarov.

What are the odds?!

Buddy, Umarov hobbled off the field almost every game. Because he was told to. It’s really not that hard to see through.

Those yankees are real nervous about this. I listened to a call in show and they were worried that Tennessee may pack their house with crazy hillbillies and that OSU fans may boo Ryan Day if things don't go well for them early. I have had a lot of friends say that the ticket prices are reasonable cheap by SEC standards, I don't know if that is true as I have not looked into it. Sadly can't possibly go without being killed, stupid relatives.

Cheapest ticket right now is $300. About right in line with our prices this regular season, but definitely cheaper than a playoff game would be here.

I'll see if I can find his last hobble. It looked like he was genuinely hurt. Hope it's a fake. And it wasnt a PAT.

Losing Eason would hurt.

That is, truly, how the entire country felt. The idea that college football "needed" Bama for excitement and viewership is as big a lie as their former "NIL will destroy parity" hoax.

This is really important. Totally agree. When it was in the 50s at vandy and the Tennessee players were cold , the announcers were making fun of them…

Wasn't that Fowler (dragging along Herbie) when we were at Georgia?

Herbie imo has seemed to make a noticeable effort to innovate and outgrow and not repeat that old trite outdated attitude toward the new Vols, but he needs to stand up better to Fowler, who still thinks it's cool.

I looked it up. The CFP set the number of visitors tickets. It looks like we would allot over 9k to visitors. So, we are getting much less.

I’m not doubting that is what you read, but if that’s really the case why haven’t we heard anything from the TN administration about getting more tickets?

What about Danny White, Donde Plowman or Randy Boyd makes you think they wouldn’t raise hell if this fan base was being treated THAT unfairly?

Thanks for looking it up and nothing personal against you or what you read, but that doesn’t pass the smell test IMO
