Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Devo182]

Weird thought:

What if 1) Bama wins out, 2) LSU wins out, but loses to UGA in SECCG, 3) UGA wins completely out???

Does the SEC get 3 teams in or wtf happens there?

Real talk, if Bailey is starting next season as a True Freshman he will have earned it & be a stud.

Pruitt won’t hand the job over to anyone who has earned it. Honestly wouldn’t mind another season with JG starting...

agreed! Would be fantastic if JG and Shrout stay. Will be great competition for that starting spot. Whoever comes out of it #1 I will feel very good about!

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Apparently u missed Brian Edwards catch against us

Why the **** would an opponent’s catch, against us be a best catch?

TaxSlayer Gator Bowl
TIAA Bank Field, Jacksonville, Florida
Jan. 2, 7 p.m., ESPN
Bonagura: Tennessee vs. Illinois
Schlabach: Tennessee vs. Iowa

Thoughts????

Hard pass on both.

Played Iowa 5 years ago and embarrassed them.

Illinois just doesn't move the meter whatsoever. In fact, fewer fans may travel playing a no name team. Illinois is like Wake Forest, they should be in the group of 5.

Can't we play ACC or Big12 at least? Tired of whipping B1G.

Should have ended 9-3 smh

It doesn't do any good to play what if, or what should have been. Looks like he has righted the ship. Just look forward because that's where the good times are

 

[LA Vol]

This isn’t basketball

Shouldn’t he be like the 12th man?
With apologies to TAM

The players call him the sixth man. They know it isn't basketball.

Lol... I'm surprised you responded to that lol

 

[Batman1948]

My man Suave was also saying he’s out on Pruitt in the first half of UAB. He rides the emotional wave like someone else I know

He must be a surfer

 

[Batman1948]

Man, that Arkansas job might be one of the toughest in the country. Gonna be tough for them to turn it around

The difference between Arkansas and us is that they have big money willing to get it right quickly. Our big money was working to keep us down.

 

[butchna]

I’d like to see that game. Both teams would be ecstatic to be there. Don’t remember UT ever playing Illinois?? Sure they have......

Coulda sworn we did in the 80’s...but no.

That job is much much harder imo

Have to be just LSU and UGA cause OSU and Clemson would be the others

In case anyone hasn't seen the results of our defense last night in a single display:

Phew... that's a relief.

Unless I counted wrong we appear to be using 84/85 scholarships according to 24/7 distribution list.

Redshirts on scholarship that don't/can't play:
QB K. Hill
WR D. Gibbs
WR B. Johnson
WR B. Collins
TE S. Brown
OL C. Akporoghene
OL J. Lampley
DL E. Gooden
OLB J. Allen
DB B. Buchanan

That's 10 and that puts us down to 74 guys. Of those 74 here's the other names not getting any PT
QB S. Smith
QB M. Bittner
RB F. Orr
WR J. Means
TE J. Warren
TE H. Salmon
OL O. Lane
OL P. Ball
DL E. Rinke
ILB A. Beasley
ILB D. Beauchamp
CB K. Solomon
S C. Labruzza
S T. Flowers (not sure if he'll be able to get a Medical RS)
S T. Fields
S B. Davis

That's another 16 guys, so the number is actually probably 58 instead of 63. I think a few guys in that 16 have played some reps (see bold) but yeah, 63/64 sounds right.

 

[LA Vol]

It was stupid. Now the even stupider comments will commence.

Iowa is thinking 'please, not again.' lol.

 

[millst987]

I have zero excitement for either of those potential matchups. I’ll take the W though

Kasim Hill is not currently on scholarship. Walkon transfer. Obviously will be awarded one as soon as whatever time limit allows it but he’s not part of the current scholarship numbers.

Edit: Add S. Smith, Orr, Salmon, Ball, Rinke and Beauchamp...all walk ons.

I think its hard to say at all at this point. I think Clemson is definitely going to win out, but LSU could lose in the SEC championship to Georgia. Georgia could lose to Auburn. Alabama could lose to Auburn. Ohio State could still lose to Penn State and/or Michigan, and Minnesota could be undefeated with a couple ranked wins heading into the BIG10 CG. A 1 loss Oregon or Utah will win the Pac12. Baylor could be undefeated and win the Big12 with several ranked wins.

Subtract Hill and Collins as they are walkons.

Smith? Bittner? Obviously walkons too. As are Orr and Salmon. And Ball, Rinke, Beauchamp.

Sorry for the stream of consciousness post

I could see that. Dooley would probably be decent at Arkansas or Vanderbilt.

I would pass on it if I were him.

Either is times better than no match up.

 

[Devo182]

@MoCo_Vol That said, I think the idea is correct. I went through the same page and just counted on hand and came up with...63. They are discounting projected RSs and injuries. Doesn't feel honest, but whatever.
