Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Devo182]

I don't want a world where Indiana doesn't get in, and you take the 12 "best teams".

I mean think about that.

To Indiana: It doesn't matter that you play in a major conference, and it doesn't matter even if you go undefeated. Your recruiting talent composite is too low to ever be considered a top 12 team.

To Bama: It doesn't matter you went 8-4. You beat a couple of good teams, and your talent composite means you will be favored by a few teams in the playoff field, and won't be a massive dog against anyone. So you get in.

**** that world. The rankings are fine. Just lose the auto bids and seed the teams according to the rankings. That's it. I'm fine with them weighing SOS a little bit more heavily, but I don't want to see them get so swept up in SOS that teams are eliminated because they start the season without enough 4-5 stars on the roster.

Agreed. There has to be SOME level of deservedness. Otherwise just throw W/Ls out the window and go by perceived talent.

You also need buy-in from the non 1%ers.

I was told a sock full of pennies is a great weapon. You never know when you'll need to beat some cents into someone.

I tried that once. Got the hell beaten out of me, because it hurt my feet so bad.

About three of that is home field advantage, which I suspect UT fanbase presence may help counter.

Megan Fox is another a lot of people find super attractive, but I don’t. She makes my skin crawl as well.

I’m just weird I guess lol

Does have a weird look. But she is from Oak Ridge, so I give her some props.

But give me Christina Hendricks as for local women

Loving the visuals from TNT pregame coverage of SMU/PSU….showing POVs of the stadium and warmups that you rarely see with ESPN/Disney.

Your uncanny eye for TWSSs has been sorely missed.

Where regular folks only see blather, you see poetry.

The TNT inclusion is cool.

Wonder if Barkley and Shaq would ever do a show or a bit for the playoffs. Would have great ratings imo
