Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I'm just about to fire off an email to Barnes.

He doesn’t check his emails during the holidays..

I skipped about 100 pages hoping it would be better. That's a big nope. I get it. We flat out sucked on Saturday. There are some questions that need to be answered. They will be. I still have great faith in Coach Heup.

like Titans, suck

How is Auburn doing so well in recruiting? Where do they get their $?

If only there were a foreign country where football is even more popular that we could poach elite players from

Samoa comes to mind, lots of great players out of Pacific Island countries. Also, Oregon signed an amazing athlete who's roots are from Nigeria but he was raised in England. He's just learning the basics, Tobi Haastrup, 6'4" 235, DE runs a 10.7 100 meter. Great athlete!!

Heard on the Ainge show last week someone told them 19 million.

I'll trust that someone who works for the university and a guy who was our QB are a lot closer to the truth than that list.

Especially since VIRGINIA is ahead of us on that list. No one in Virginia even cares about them right now.

Virginia legitimately has NIL money because Serena Williams' husband donated a lump sum specifically for the women's basketball team. He's the co-founder of Reddit.

I mean considering we’ve been told Spyre is the best in the business and, assuming these numbers are accurate for everyone else, that still puts us anywhere from 6th-8th best in the SEC. So still pretty bad.

Yeah but barley over 10M would be atrocious lol

 

[Midas]

Remember last year when yans was blaming Joe for WR drops. “No touch, throws the ball too hard”

My my how the turntables.

Yeah lol they dropped like a minimum 500 yards and like 5+ TD’s for him

Evidently he did at halftime.

Can you patent a novel?

As a high school defensive coordinator there have been several games that i knew 100% of the plays the other team were going to run based on personnel and formation. Some times we stopped them other times we didn't. It all comes down to the players. If the other team has better players there is nothing you can do to stop them.

It just comes down to the fact Tennessee didn't have the players to beat Ohio state.

Heupel hasn't forgotten how to call his offense. He 100% still has everything form 22 in the playback he just doesn't have the dudes to run that.

The offense has adapted and evolved. It's just been focused on the run game. Year 1&2 it was all mostly inside zone. Now it's a ton of gap scheme stuff.

Additionally, Hendon had elite command of the offense. So many bonus yards and scores from catching defenses off guard and lost. He was quick to audible when he noticed a misalignment. Nico doesn't YET have that level of understanding of our offense and opposing defenses to do that. But that will improve.

Additionally, I think there's some things we haven't done and/or took from the playbook based on personnel and our ability to execute it. Limited in some regards, and some of that comes back to the QB.

None of that is a knock on Nico. He's going to be fine. That's just the nature of having a young QB.

Notre Dame isn't even on there. You know they got tons of NIL.

catholics contribute for sure

@LWSVOL You still talk to @therealviper?

Have not in many years. Was a really good guy and I've lost his contact information.

Lots of people tend to forget that Hooker came in with, what 3 years of college experience? Definitely 2 but I want to say 3.

They actually have money people who let Freeze spend. We wouldn’t know anything about that.

@TrippieRedd they pissed Unc off

 

[screenthis]

We got out-coached at George and Ohio State. Perhaps the same could be said at Arkansas. Coaching staff needs some deep thought on why. All that said, still loving Vol Sports these days.

Yes. Nico will take another leap next year.

3rd year in the system, 3rd year of SEC football.

Hendon was a 5th and 6th year senior and didn't even throw a pass as a redshirt freshman at VT. Just protect him and give him the weapons.

100% correct

Love Heupel and think he will adapt. But as a young coach, he has to cover up these tells and holes. Don’t want to be a sunshine pumper, but excited to see how he adapts next year - I think the competitor in him will force him to get uncomfy and find some new kinks in the offense.
