Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Lloyd_Christmas]

Just as an FYI, my dad jokes are copyright protected.


Not by me, but most probably are by somebody, at least.

I'm already done being questioned...now I'm just waiting. In hindsight, I should've told a few of your jokes and they would've happily dismissed me.

I was the biggest Air McNair fan there was, just a tough SOB.

sad/frustrating info on Jordan Ross if true---

Was in Bham this weekend getting to see my son and his wife join their new Church... Afterwards, we all went lunch and I mentioned to my son's mother-in-law, who is a Calculus teacher at Vestavia Hills, and knows Jordan/taught him, that word from Knox is he came in and is doing very well and looking more like a Junior than a true freshman.

She said she's really pulling for him because he's had a bad family situation for a while, and that word is his mother (who's apparently a POS, Dad not in the picture) has taken every penny of his initial NIL and spent it on a new car, new condo, etc and Jordan hasn't seen a penny of it since he was 17 when they signed... She said according to her sources that when he's 18/or when he turned 18, that he now has control or will have control, but the first initial part was taken from him...

She said there's a family in VH connected to the VH football program (their son plays there and is friends with Jordan) that's been helping him the past few seasons, and even helped him move up to UT and paid for initial things to get him settled. Mom didn't even go with him or help move him in to UT.

Pretty sad if true, I hope it is not... Only going by what my son's mother-in-law said, but there's no reason for her to lie or exaggerate.

Apparently, the FDA recently announced they would ban the production of margarine. Yep, they want to make the world a butter place.

Thank you, Sir. And, trust me, I already know better than to tell any jokes to her.

You have to go stay at the Y a lot or do you have a cot in the garage?

Setting aside the POS aspect of stealing from your own child... The unimaginable knack some people have for stepping over dollars to pick up pennies. It is almost difficult to believe, but you see it all the time.

This will be the same type of person who tells everyone she knows how her own son abandoned her after he gets drafted and she gets nothing from him.

Hypothetically anyway. Obviously no idea of this is true.

Our 2025 class is absolutely stacked, holy moly.

 

[captainfalcon777]

[LittleVol]

2011 is going to be the best year in the state in quite some time...you could take the top 10 players from TN in that class and nationally they stack up against any state....,I'd get the top 10 guys and cherry pick everywhere else...TN has elite talent in 2011...

Is your wife feeling butter?

Do you all realize that you are criticizing a kid's family? Who knows what her family situation was like or anything else in the past. Do us all of a favor and keep the football threads about sports/potpourri and stop trying to put yourself in someone else's shoes; when you have no idea what is going on.

Rumor bouncing around that people are getting emails if they are selling their season tickets that they are not eligible for season tickets next year. Appears to just be people selling all their tickets and not attending any games.

Yawn. Not criticizing anyone. Very clearly said if that post was true. I don't know anything about that poster or Jordan Ross' family situation, nor do I pretend to.

I can say that the situation laid out in that post is all too common in football, and I'll speak to that if I feel like it boss.

Just asking out of curiosity, since sweet tea is on the level of dr pepper for me, but what is in it to give people kidney issues?

My grandparents drank that stuff like it was water. Just constantly. Think my aunt and uncle still do. Always thought it was supposed to be pretty healthy minus adding sugar oneself (?)

Genetics plays a big role. Then anything your kidney processes that isn't:

1. Water
2. If not water, at least clear-ish.
3. Coke, Coffee, Tea, Root Beer, especially alcohol causes what can be turned into a small speck (crystal) that are usually smaller than a grain of sand. They form if you become dehydrated for any reason. Sick, drunk, didn't eat enough, sleep too long.

If the dehydration or just under hydration environment persists then eventually the tiny crystals will bind together and get big enough to turn into a "stone" which can be from the size of a grain of sand up to dime-sized depending on how long it marinates in the kidney before being jarred out. That's usually from doing various strenuous activities.....and the best one that you're thinking is great and terrible with a kidney stone!

It's like a route in the smokies blocked by falling rock(s). Makes for a happy wife but not completely fulfilling or healthy for a man. Address quickly.

Exactly... I am just passing on some news I heard from what most would think would be a somewhat reliable source. You hope this is not true, I hope it isn't true, but thought I'd share what was relayed to me as a potential example of things may not be rosy and cut and dry in terms of these kids collecting all this NIL...

No different than someone speculating or passing on info they heard on situations during recruiting and what goes on behind closed doors. Things are never really cut and dry.

Fingers crossed for orange out against Bama again; that was cool to see.

Way more awesome than checkered Neyland, imo.

Thanks for the bump!
