Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[HankHill]

Don’t take away my dream of us literally running over SEC foes in the 4th quarter

What about Him running through a SEC foe in the 4th quarter?

 

[Pane di mais]

I liked the "We are Tennessee" speech.

"2 the t0p" is just the slogan for the '20 recruiting class...not a catch phrase

Wish we had snagged one of the absolute top WRs.

Hope one of ours develops into a game breaker.

Hyatt's got the speed and hands for it, just got to get that kid in the weight room, he's a bean pole
Edit: and route running, his routes are cold

 

[drvenner]

Has anyone tried Uncle Nearest?

I prefer Auntie Farrest, but that's just me.

 

[HankHill]

That’s fair. The only reason I expect him to stay is because Pruitt seems so tied to him. Losing JJ and MC is going to suck but I think Palmer is pretty damn good. Any buzz on the freshmen TEs? DWA was decent but I don’t imagine it being too difficult to replace him next year.

Agree on DWA. He looked the part but played soft. I agree on Palmer too, i really like him. It won’t show up on paper but i think losing MC is the biggest loss. He constantly commended bracket coverage Bc teams were scared of him over the top. He opened up a lot for Jennings. We need one of the new comers in hyatt or holiday to step into that roll. I think jimmy calloway will slide into Jennings spot pretty nicely. I haven’t heard much about or seen a lot from left over TEs but like i said before i don’t think it’s a very important position. But i also wouldn’t be surprised if Baron got a look there too.

Nice tweet. Point out that biased BS. Rodrigo choke artist.

More steam is from Neyland's maxims. Think he did that on purpose.

You also don’t think he exhibits more accuracy or touch?

I think he's accurate and has touch. I don't think JG lacked for that as a recruit.

I am just talking about my impression of his arm strength. Someone else wanted to compare stats. To do that, you have to consider the guys around them.

Never occurred to me that it was a maxim. So that gif sums up what I looked like when I read your post.

 

[sjt18]

That "easy button" dropped a lot of passes, I think you are being a bit harsh in your evaluation of Bailey.

I'm not saying he's not a really good prospect. I just don't see off the scale arm strength. I'm not even saying he doesn't have enough arm.

 

[Pane di mais]

I really like Slaughter and Keshawn.

I keep thinking that TMac is going to put a lick on someone at Star too.

It just came to me one day and it made me smile. I didn't notice at first either.

Drop the A, DW will be our tight end next year and we'll forget all about DWA...

 

[Pane di mais]

I really like all of these guys.

Now this is funny: which two did I really want badly during the season: HB surely, and then down the stretch... Albright! Remember those dicey snaps?

 

[Pane di mais]

But if you were in the stands with binoculars, who would you lock in on for their first play. Spraggins!

I didn’t mention Albright for the same reason I didn’t mention Bailey. Those 2 are automatic.

I'm pretty sure there will be additional roster changes between now and the start of fall camp 2020 but this is where we look to be right now for next year. This assumes no scholarships are presently available for walk-ons, even if they were awarded one for the 2019 season. Blue highlight is composite 4-star, green highlight is 5-star.

They say the key metric to watch is “blue-chip ratio.” Percentage of your guys that are 4/5 stars.

We’ve got 38 players in that group, and 26 of those came in the 2019/2020 classes (including transfers.) Very impressive.

 

[Sleegro]

These alt uniforms the clippers are wearing tonight are pretty dope.

Kid makes all the throws, even the tosses to the RB's in the flats which we have not got right in about 8 years. That's all anyone can ask at this point in his career. If your worried about arm strength (and I don't share your concern) take a look at Brees and Rivers, doing OK...

 

[ArdentVol]

Hodge looks more LB to me.

crowded place

 

[99Vol]

crowded place

Pruitt would play 2 press corners and 9 linebackers if he thought he could get away with it....

 

[HankHill]

crowded place

We have like 12 RBs lol
