Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[KB5252]

Clemson has won 2 national championships in the last 10 years. As much as I hate to say it, they would be the better program right now.

But they aren't. Their trajectory is on the decline as a program. They no longer recruit or compete at the same level. Dabo will be let go in the next few years.

What I don’t get is one of the “insiders” said heupel has evolved into an impressive HC. If this is what some call impressive then I’m even more confused by it than I was. This is not impressive, this is unimaginative and boring

I think that's a narrow view of the circumstances. Being "impressive" is winning games despite the handicaps we had and has nothing to do with "looks."

They were 9-3 gave up 34 to UGA, 33 to Louisville and 17 to SC jr. In the losses.


And they fired their DC.
Here we’d be saying he did a great job and give him a raise.

 

[GVol1966]

Well good. I hope he’s good and they listen to him because the offense needs some help.

OL coach and WR coach upgrade based on what he saw from this year should be obvious first advice for Heupel

Looks is another way of saying zero motions/ confusion for the defense. It’s a step backwards no way around it

He changed his scheme to fit his talent and support a rookie starting QB and cobbled oline. That was impressive. Making the playoff with 0 1st round receivers or maybe even olinemen is equally impressive.

What about all their other games?

They allowed 23.4 ppg this season. Vols allowed 16.1 ppg.

 

[SoilVol]

Next OC imo

 

[DD4ME]

I am no Heupel apologist, but that OR game let me know the sky is not falling either. OR played a much worse game than us and has Phil Knight buying any player they need.

I agree, I’m happy with Heupel. Just think he could use misdirection more to mask the lack of talent

 

[UTSuave’]

Not getting excited until @TrippieRedd approves the scoop….

the real malpractice is having no real weapons for the kid to throw to

There you go spitting logic again. Don’t you know you can’t do that?

What about it.
only common opposition was UgA and they gave up 34 and we gave up 31.

 

[Wickman]

I think a lot of people forgot OSU has the most talent in the country. Howard/oline has been holding them back but they are lights out now.

My complaint is potentially on being overly loyal to bad recruiters. I am growing convinced that recruiting means more than scheme. Also per @KingVFL the staff leans too heavily on NIL to close the gaps in recruiting. I'd appreciate some good stewardship with our collective dollars.

They consistently gave up more points to teams in a lesser conference

 

[Volbucky]

The poor get poorer

FSU is the best case scenario type school. I like squirrel and don't want to play against him. I can easily root from him from afar if he is at FSU

siap
Ive seen several on here comment on the ut/ASU targeting ruling but……..
I just watched their coach post game press conference if you have not seen it, you need to check it out.
The language is rough but the message
