Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[chavisut]

Serious question-- can someone remind me why or how Eli Wolfe was able to transfer without sitting out a year? Or am I losing my memory and he did sit out? If he didn't, then how is it that we can't get Uros eligible for legit reasons and Eli can just jump over to the competition?

Grad transfer.

Not a big fan of drafting Fromm.

Since he has won a lot st uga, people think higher of his nfl capabilities even though in reality he will be average at best. Same thing happens in the nfl with these marginal qb's.

 

[Dudley Smith]

QB play is the difference in the Mizzou game, for me.

Big question for me is whether JG can make handoffs going to the right because of his cast. If he can’t that’s a real limitation on the offense when he is in there.

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

Ummmm it's like this every year in the sec. The 2nd to last week is a snooze fest b/c almost everyone has a big game to finish their season...

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

Absolutely a terrible year to need a QB. Maybe the titans will decide against drafting one.

Joe Borrow is the only reasonable pick and he’s a one year wonder himself. Tua has to come back to Bama now to prove he’s healthy and can stay healthy and Fromm sucks balls right now

Pass on all of them imo

Tua is going to the league this year.

Saban is taking too much flack for this Tua deal. If he had re-injured the ankle that might be one thing, but this was a completely different injury. I don't think you pull anyone in the first half unless it's for poor play.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Odds that Texas will still be ranked
50/50

They'll still be ranked because the media desperately wants them to be relevant again.

 

[volatil]

I just have one question: Are you gonna act like you've been there before when we beat Bama next season?

Nope I’m going to lose my mind

I agree but let's continue piling on anyway.

ESPN's dream playoff:

USC, Texas, OSU, Bama/UF

"Saban taking too much flack" is not on my list of things to worry about. Enjoy it, bro.

Saban sending a second-team frosh to blitz Maurer and shove him after the play, giving our starter a concussion. Think on it.

That Garth Brooks concert will ruin the turf. Signed CMA WEEK and Nissan Stadium

This is why I was pissed they did this before the season was over. If someone gets hurt, it is on us.

They won’t be ranked. But of course the media wants them to be relevant, they bring ratings when they are good.

Ah idk about that. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Look for ESPN to continue headlining that ticker with every step of Tua's recovery. He has his own category-- Tua-- and only needs one name. It's a ridiculous obsession for a player who isn't winning the Heisman, isn't winning a national championship, isn't playing in the conference championship game, hasn't even beaten a ranked team this year.

It feels like irrational exuberance. The Bama crash is coming.

He’s no more important than any of the other kids that were injured on the field yesterday or earlier this season. This type of behavior bothers me to no end.

I put up a 200 burger son

I’ve got no answer at QB

I think Bama falls off a cliff when Saban retires. One <10 win season and Tuscaloosa will be set ablaze. God forbid it happens to the new guy in year one. That job will be radioactive for about 5 years post-Saban, if not longer.

Not really. There was absolutely no reason to have him in there. He has run a 2 minute drill before. MSU was not going to score enough to get past 21. He needed to rest that ankle. Other QBs needed to get playing time. The only reason he was in was to run up the score to try to force the PO committee to pick them with 1 loss. Granted it would have been worse if the ankle was the injury. Let him get some criticism. It is so rare.

It was in the second quarter, lol.

Nickie will never win another title. And he is too vain to retire before he does. Complete absolute meltdown.

 

[Pane di mais]

New nega/troll mania: defending Nickie. So absolutely trite and boring.

 

[drvenner]

When USC announced sanctions and free transfer, I will forever love that Derek Dooley sent a letter of intentions to recruit their entire eligible players

Yes and we did get Malik Jackson. It might have been Coach O who called him out and said he would never get to the NFL if he came here.

 

[SweetasSoda]

LOL IIRC the score was 35-7 with about 2 minutes left. At what point is it more important to rest your fragile QB and let your inexperienced QBs get experience in case he gets injured again? Obviously before the 2nd quarter.
