Recruiting Football Talk VIII

These idiot OSU reporters saying the Big10 is a better conference than the SEC are going to make me pull for all of the SEC teams in bowl games......something I normally would never do. They actually said they thought Oregon, OSU, and Penn St are the 3 best teams in the playoff.
Wouldn't go that far with PSU.

But Oregon and OSU isn't a crazy thought. Very talented and Oregon has the best QB in a year of down QBs mostly across the board. UGA is now down their QB. Who else is really top notch, Texas but we've seen them now lose twice to UGA, so some confidence lost there. Maybe ND is up there. We'll see.

Most importantly, outside of rankings, is margins. Very open field this year, exactly what we need. Don't see any unbeatables, at all. If only we had a better route, that would be even better, but alas.
 
I’ll have to disagree. The issue is that teams lately have known when we are going to throw and have brought blitzes knowing we are throwing. This has been because we’ve had trouble with receivers etc in the passing game. Overall we are a better pass blocking team than run blocking. (This also is because of our issues in the passing game)

Penn St ran for 9 YPC against Oregon last week for the entire game and Penn St is no offensive juggernaut.


Oregon might be the best team on offense but the defense is soft. Just hasnt been exposed by many.

I spoke to my son about what I posted last night. He said the Bambu Labs was definitely the way to go. He said that the only downside was that you had to use their proprietary filament. They add an RFID tag so the printer knows what you are printing with.

I mentioned that I told you that you need to be proficient in 3D cad to use one and he said that wasn't necessarily true. He said there are libraries where you can download projects and print them. If you want to design your own stuff you'll have to learn 3d cad.

If you want to get into 3D cad, he recommended using Fusion 360. You can use it for free unless it's commercial use. I have to pay for it. 😐
I’m sure you and your son have probably seen this site too as it’s pretty popular but you can get some pretty cool free designs there too. I don’t have a 3D printer but I have a buddy who has one and I’ve actually downloaded a few designs off here and sent them to him to make for me. They turned out well. I’ve been looking into getting one but just have never pulled the trigger. Bambu and Creality are the main two I’ve looked at. Maybe I’ll snag one this year.

It always felt to me like he didn't love Tennessee when I listened to his calls. Now I see why. Regardless of where he went to college he's still a buckeye at heart. I don't know why Tennessee would hire someone who doesn't love the university to call the football games. Makes zero sense.
I know exactly what you mean. No real emotions for the VOLS, even during our biggest moments. I've always wondered what a Bob Kesling UT vs tOSU call would be like. I know he's a professional and has been in the business a long time but I'm curious to see how it goes.



It's just like growing up a bama fan, you can't get away from it and you can't fully hide it. That's why I don't trust any refs, coaches, or AD employees with alabama ties. There's a hatred there. I know I have a burning hate for the tide and if I had a chance, it'd be hard to put that aside and just do my job. In UT's worst years, we had an athletic department full of gumps. It makes you wonder what would have happened if Randy Boyd wouldn't have took over.

I'm just outside Cincinnati and passing several Vols heading north. Light layer of snow on the ground and we're all rolling down our windows fist pumping and smiling big. GBO 🍊 🍊 🍊
Can confirm, I live just before Cincinnati and saw so many Vol cars on my way to the office today. Will be making my trip tomorrow.
