Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[MarcoVol]

Just saw on X some sports writer say "Josh Heupal on his best day isn't as creative on offense as Sark".... unfortunately pretty damn accurate based on this season. Folks are seeing how predictable we've become with just about zero wrinkles... not sure if it was Heup just being stubborn and not wanting to change or what, but clearly we ran a vanilla O this season in comparison to the last two seasons... In before "but but but we won 10 games soooo...." We 'ish the bed when it counted against OSU and were easily predictable. Didn't change a dang thing...
And it was funny when folks were posting Heup's press conference before the game when he was saying they weren't changing anything up for the playoffs... Several writers were saying, "yeah, you KNOW Heup is gonna whip up some new stuff for OSU"... LOL and then we literally run the exact same O and OSU knew what we were going to do before we snapped the ball.

Hoping something changes...

Sark? The guy who called the toss play from the 1-yard line that lost 7 yards during the biggest drive of the most important game his team played all year?

Super creative play call tho

This furthers my claim that we need to dump Hazle and hire a real OC and have him call the plays. Worked out well for osu doing it

No one other than Heupel will be calling the plays lol.

Coach Heupal gotta go.

North Georgia and chatt have always been Tennessee strongholds and it’s more important now than ever with people continually moving north from Atlanta and south from across the country. Chatt growing a good bit too. And HS Tennessee football getting better helps too. We’ll continue to see good players emerge from those areas more and more.

We should designate one day of the week as a no fahrin day. All this fahrin has me exhausted.

Tough on the road in the SEC.

1st year TX in the SEC winning it all will make them unbearable. UT looks less-bad, the better OSU looks this year.

This CFB Playoff turned out to be very much like every US election these days: Choosing between a huge dooj nozzle and a huge turd sammich. If you have to pull for one of the above, it may as well be the dooj nozzle that makes UT look a bit better on the national stage.

Exactly this... and they are almost unbearable now. We don't need 100 years of how Texas saved the SEC.

In ten years a QB in NFL will be making over a $100 million a year. No way QB in college ever makes that much in one season...

Its crazy that Beck will make $4M at miami next year...Levis makes $950k. Granted Levis got a signing bonus, but any way you twist it Beck is making more per year than Levis.

Why would you ever go pro if you could make the same or better money in college? Posted up on a campus where everything is free to you, people treat you like celebrities, and there are thousands of beautiful girls your age within a half mile radius that think you're a hero?? Bet we don't see many QBs and WRs leaving early anymore...why would you? Maybe RBs because they have a very short lifespan age wise. Other positions? No way I would leave early if I was Nico or Mike Matthews etc.

Amen. I was pulling for a meteor, then OSU last night. Texas can kick rocks

Completely agree but we know Heupel won’t do it

Lots of Floridians are moving to Chattanooga or Tennessee in general too and North Carolina too. The two more hurricanes this year and the unaffordable home owners insurance issue is the final straw and Floridians or people who moved to Florida during covid are getting out and leaving the state and moving in large numbers to both Tennessee and North Carolina and somewhat South Carolina but not Georgia for some reason according to our local news.

I think your right, you will see HS football get even better with more talent from people moving to Tennessee in droves. Kind of like after Katrina, lots of people from Louisiana moved to Tennessee and HS football and talent got better.

Random post. If you want an axe of any style/weight hollar at me. I not only love shopping for antique ones I love handling them and shaving the handles down to match older styles. I don't even care about money it's just fun. Chopping wood tonight reminded me.

Went through an axe and hatchet phase...it was a fun rabbit hole to research and hunt for at flea markets.

I saw something like this coming. In a "Coach Prime" show interview, they asked him about his vision for the next steps at Colorado, he wouldn't answer. I knew then that he was gone, now that his kids are out.

But he was almost honest. Later in the same show, he said people think he did it for himself. He said he did it for his sons. (Definitely not the players he'll be leaving behind.)

So, The Titans are about to get a bunch of the Raiders Draft picks the next few years.

Unless Sonny boy pulls an Elway move and changes the cost metrics. Wonder if he walks in and cleans house like he did at CO with cuts and trades.

Idk what % Brady owns, but hard to believe (at least to me ) he would sign off on Deion and Shedeur.

It was reported that he has 5%.

Florida’s recent move to allow school vouchers is drawing in young families which is why I’m selfishly opposed to Tennessee doing the same as I don’t want anymore folks migrating into my area!
