Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[99Vol]

We need some quick hitting passes to get Nico settled and stop the pass rush, get them guessing a bit. Sometimes the best defense is a little offense. Momentum is a bitch but I’m not tuning out yet. If they can score 21 in a quarter we can as well. A few of those fumbles go our way and…

Alright. I'm on board with the guys demanding a top 5 class. We can't compete with Georgia, Ohio State, Texas with this "are you a team first guy" recruiting pitch anymore. Overspend on NIL, offer scholarships to guys with arrest records, negatively recruit. Do whatever it takes. Because we're witnessing our ceiling with this "recruit the character" mindset. I'm very proud of the Vols season, but I really hope this was a wake up call. If not, I'll just have to be content with being ranking 10-15 forever.

Exactly. This should be a wake up call to Heupel, Danny White, and Randy Boyd. It is win at all costs.

Guys we need to recruit better. Rankings do matter if you want to actually to compete for championships.

I think it is, that’s all I’m saying.

I’m not thing to shove it down peoples throat. Sorry if it came off that way.

No need to apologize for it

youre 100% right

 

[INKYBERRYVOL]

Rules commentator, no int and pi. Get out of here!

Much needed!

 

[99Vol]

Nice pick and it stands!

 

[crawdaddyjc]

nico needs to make quick tosses and quick decisions

 

[Jimmy Football]

Alright, boys. Let’s get this ship turned around.

 

[Deebowbear]

They are the most talented team in the country. Never understood TN fans wanting to draw them. I wanted Penn St. Think we could have beaten them.

Not going to beat nobody the way we are playing

 

[crawdaddyjc]

nickle and dime them to death. lets go vols

 

[INKYBERRYVOL]

LGO! Let’s end this with a touchdown. Good start. Would a huge swing in points

 

[crawdaddyjc]

whats wrong with sampson?

 

[crawdaddyjc]

#97 dick move

 

[Orange.]

oh wtf, the "expert" disagrees with that call also (roughing Nico)

 

[Orange.]

damn it

another uncalled DPI. Even Herbie thinks so. I can't believe they let the DB (with his back to the ball) knock the receiver down as the ball arrives.

Even a win against Ohio State today, in theory, we'd have to beat equally talented team 2-3 more times to win it all.

I don't see this team being able to do that as currently constructed.

We got out recruited by a terrible joke of a Florida program this year

whats wrong with sampson?

Pulled his hammy in the Vanderbilt game. He went to the tent and I knew he pulled it. Bishop it is moving forward…

 

[crawdaddyjc]

[Orange.]
