Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

How big of a waist? We talking a 38” or a 40”?

I'm glad Volnation didn't WAIST anytime with this! Buncha Morans....

It's so weird that 3 of the top 8 for 2021 are from Washington. The guy that is #1 wasn't impressive at all when he played Marietta in that Geico Bowl series though. I don't remember him making a tackle while facing our Kennesaw St bound center and 5'11" JR guard. I think he made one catch as a TE.

Rivals.com - National Signing Day: Winners and losers

Pause.... and let us acknowledge Florida is losing recruits to Colorado, GT and modern day Miami

Always happy to see people getting healthier, with or without my assistance

If he wants glute striations, he knows where to find me

Then she do his laundry when he is 30 because he is living in the basement to be shielded from this tough world and all its decisions

I care nothing about his laundry

Go to LSU

So I ran a test. Cade Mays doesn't count for this recruiting cycle, obviously. BUT, we did land him. Not sure there was a bigger transfer in the off-season than him. To measure the true impact of this signing class, I think you have to include him.

The Class Calculator won't let me add him, so I got creative.

Cade has a grade of 0.9869


So, I found a recruit from this cycle that is as close to that number as possible. Lookie who that was...

...and then re-ran the Class Calculator. I also put in the assumption that we will get Zach Evans.


That would be good enough for 7th, and ahead of Auburn and Florida

Who knows what we'd be on Rivals either!

We are back.

 

[InVOLuntary]

It’s going to be excluded there too.

I’m not going to get into a political discussion, but the way the climate is changing has made these types of days-long rains more common here in Tennessee and our insurance companies are not prepared for it. Flood insurance almost needs to be mandatory now.

If it floods at my house I don't think any of us need insurance.

While true, would add UF and other teams' transfers too to be reflctive. Idk why 247 hasn't reranked transfers yet. I bet most "5 star transfers" are far from it, but Cade is a legit one.

UF picked up two paper 5* transfers right?

 

[Devo182]

Something like that. Probably Drew Richmond type "5* transfers" though. If you're a legit starter and excelling, no reason to transfer outside of weird cases like Cade's.

Just check East Tennessee flooding history and TVA. Then telll me about rain, climate change here. Change is inevitable just look a emissions over China , India on “windy” weather app. Your right not correct place to discuss and flooding is terrible

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Do they need a place to stay?

Nah...they are fine, my wifes whole family are there. They are going to stay with pappaw and mamaw till they get in their new place. Their landlord has another house available in Albertville, and as soon as possible they are going to move in there with no deposits. My family and the in-laws are going to buy them new furniture and whatever else they need.


I really appreciate the thought.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Yeah because Tennessee never has flooding lol

Shoot...Harlan county is a mess right now..I live up on a ridge, so I am fine but most folks in these parts live in the narrow river valleys and hollers and a lot of folks are flooded out today or stuck on the wrong side of bridges today.

This? Primitive Technology channel on YT?

Primitive Technology

Omg..I love the rocket stove kiln, going to have to make one of those. The rocket stove thermal mass under floor heating is pretty awesome as well.

They got three actually.

One was a 5* RB Lingard that is from Florida and went to Miami. Never amounted to much there (under 200 yds running in two years), and is more of a scat back type.
Second was Brenton Cox from UGA who lost his starting spot to Ojulari this year.
Third was Justin Shorter WR from Penn State. Like Lingard, he never did much (under 200 yds receiving in two years).

Cox probably has the best shot at being good. However none of them were starting at their prior stops.

Atleast our staff is addressing these injuries early so that the kids can recover and be back to play.

My daughter that lives in Albertville Al has lost everything to flooding during the night.

Good vibes and prayers. So sorry to hear about this.

If he wants to pump gas the rest of his life, that should be his decision to make!

Stay safe @Ulysees E. McGill

Yep..it is a mess down next to the rivers. I live up on a ridge about a mile and a half from town. I am a couple hundred feet above the valley, so we are ok.

Prayers McGill. How's things on your side of the mountain? I heard they closed the flood gate in Harlan.

Wonder who else will be having surgeries before spring
