Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Flagg will get his…let him. stop everyone else..
Years ago really wanted Navy to beat Ky😡
Navy had the Admiral(David Robinson) and that’s exactly what Kentucky did.
Robinson had like 40-45 points but the rest of the team only scored 20 or so. Kentucky ended winning by like 15 or so, it’s hard for one guy to outscore five.
 
For those who did not see it, our Diamond Vols were a bit flat yesterday. Pitching needs work. The defense was spectacular, especially in the IF. Key dingers when needed pulled it out. So mission accomplished in winning another series on the road. Go for the sweep at noon today.

Could not be happier for Peebles, who is our best defensive catcher. He just needs to focus and relax at the plate like he did with that winning HR. Go with the pitches and quit trying to do too much at the plate. He has a good, level, short swing with some pop. Just a bit anxious at the plate at times.

I know Fischer wanted to play 3B more when he committed, but his work at 1B has been excellent. MLB scouts will take notice. It is good to see Curley at his natural position of 3B, which is what he will play in MLB one day. Not much to add to Antigua - the best defensive SS in college. If he continues to improve at the plate - wow. Kilen has already proven he has it all at 2B and was a quality SS previously. Knowing we have Marin as a freshman super sub at 2B, 3B and SS is a luxury most teams do not have.

The OF is just as good as the IF. Add in Bargo's bat and utility on D. He has finally leveled his swing and is staying back on the pitches, it shows big time. Clark needs to do likewise and he will return to his early season success.

No holes in the line-up and roster at all. Tighten up the pitching and there is zero doubt in my mind they can run it back.

**** sad…NIL ruined everything


The irony here is that if any of them were genuinely being paid for the Name Image and Likeness (as opposed to just being paid to play) they’d have no trouble getting their dollars. EA and Nike aren’t known for late payments when they want you to slog their product.

When it’s not really NIL though suddenly the money isn’t there from companies wanting your endorsement for their product.

SC has been a jinxed place for the Vols. We only have 5 series wins all time and that included this one.
