Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Ridgerunner Vol]

I generally agree, but I think Nantz-Romo is a fantastic crew. Probably the best in football right now.

I like Buck/Aikmen also

No tv announcers are any good. I like some radio guys because they actually have to describe the action. TV announcers just have to fill dead air while we watch.

I’m to the point that as long as it’s not Levy, I'm good.

So Hyams has been tweeting pictures of the Biltmore mansion today during his tour. Satkowiak takes jab:

Not sure how I feel about this but super unfortunate.KNS will definitely make a huge deal about it though when they pick up the story I feel like.

UT did nothing wrong. No seats available. Sorry. You're under no obligation to attend the game.

He was 88 and his time to go....RIP

He was denied Handicap seating that’s kinda cringe worthy

Hard to kick out other handicapped fans

That’s a low bar... Lol

If I go to the liquor store and ask for Blanton's, they'll tell me it is sold out. Not available. Have they denied me access to Blanton's? Not exactly.

I think that's probably a stretch... And a whole lotta context was excluded.
When did they get the tickets?
How did he purchase the tickets? From the University or third party? Did they inquire about handicapped seating at the time of purchase, or try to work something out when they got to the arena?

Did they know where the seats were when they purchased?

I hate it for him and his family... It's very sad...
But the tag line on this story reeks....

Drew is so good man. Looks like he can play forever. No decline at all

Oddly, I think the thumb injury did him some good rest wise. If you look at his late season and playoff games the last 2 seasons, you can see he was struggling. Btw we are huge Saints fans

 

[Pepe]

I’d say he’s more scared of the QB who has to basically murder someone to lose his unearned starting job.

At least he has to be better than that person who can't seem to lose his job.

 

[Pepe]

Love announcer noting that Saban passed on Brees

That's a weird way to say he broke wind

 

[Pepe]

It’s not just Drew Brees. It’s the Drew Brees-Sean Payton combo. Chances are.. if Brees would have went to Miami, he wouldn’t have had near the success he’s had in Payton’s offense. Those guys are like none other.

Brees was so bad in San Diego, they gave up on him and drafted Eli and then traded for Rivers.

 

[Pepe]

Was he though?

Of course it's true. All sensationalist claims are true.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I’ll be shocked if Maurer has half the impact that a Burrow or Mayfield had. So would a couple of staff members. I’d bet good money Bailey comes in and beats him out for the backup position fairly quickly.

If Bailey can't win the stating job, we need another high profile qb in this class.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

If I go to the liquor store and ask for Blanton's, they'll tell me it is sold out. Not available. Have they denied me access to Blanton's? Not exactly.

If you offer them 10x retail, they might find a bottle in the back.

 

[SweetasSoda]

I think people focusing too much on ones we lost or specific positions and then talking as in it’s the whole class. Saying this whole class is meh is incorrect as there are several guys that will
Contribute and fit this system and attitude the staff wants to instill as the foundation. Their are positions specifically OLB that I think cause this omg this class sucks thought.

QB - Bailey is elite prospect

RB - Hodge/Small - not great on paper but 2 Solid players at a position known to easily see 3 stars overachieve

WR- didn’t land the so called Elite ranked guy in Rakim but if you sign Callaway, Hyatt and Holiday that’s 3 big time athletes with hella speed that we don’t have at the position. Very underrated group.

TE - nobody at moment - Washington would make this easy answer but also not end of world if we don’t sign a TE with Brown and Lowe redshirting this past yr.

OL - no 5 star name but Mays/Robinson/Kyree/Spraggins each play with a mean toughness that will help this team down the road.

DL - Bailey/Thomas/Baron is a nice haul to add to the talent that was developed this yr

OLB - scary unless Baron can play here, land Joseph and Coleman then you have a few guys to work with. French is a possibility to play OLB as well. I think Whitehead could be an OLB and should play Lb if he signs.

ILB - Eason/French/Whitehead are possibilities.

DBs - McDonald/Slaughter/Lawrence is solid group of DBs to work with and we aren’t hurting for depth at this position

Just my opinion but taking into account current roster with this class I think there are plenty of pieces to help next yrs team outside of the OLB question marks

Yes!

Gus Johnson is the goat
