Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[VolGee4]

Coach Duggs is coming back for another year so we get 1-2 more weeks of free publicity.

Butch is ecstatic to see that UMass is a top 3 team. He can justify almost losing to them in 2017.

Agkistrodon piscivorus - cottonmouth.

The pixelated "hershey kiss" pattern distinguishes it from a copperhead, which is a close relative (same genus). As cottonmouths age they mostly lose this pattern and get darker. When juveniles they very closely resemble their cousins. Can't see the head in this picture, but would expect it to have a scale above the eye (like a mean-mugging brow) and a dark band across the eye. This is definitely not a Nerodia (watersnake genus).

I received a minor in wildlife biology at UT, I assist the Miss State herpetologist in my free time, and I am a hobbyist herpetologist.

Where was this snake located?

watchu got in those snake racks at home?

If Duggs leaves, UT needs to hire the UMASS coach. Any coach that can get them to a top 3 preseason ranking must know what he's doing.

Okay. I’m going to own up to being an old, out of touch idiot. Will someone here take pity on me and clue me in to what the hell this Coach Duggs stuff is all about? I’ve been seeing it everywhere lately, but I have no clue what it’s about. There is no current version of an NCAA Video game, so I’m assuming that’s not it.

Most people try to avoid that on their free time

There’s a real guy from Barstool Sports who created a team on NCAA14. You can create a fake coach. His coach for the Vols is Coach Duggs. He found a real life actor whom looks like the fake coach on the game. He uses him to advertise for Barstool Sports and get people to watch him play video games. I just understood it earlier last week for the first time.

There are still people playing NCAA14? Damn! That seemed like the logical answer, but I can’t believe there is still a huge online following for a six year old video game.

Part of it is people loved that game, but they quit making it because of the "likeness" issue.

Nothing yet lol. Goal is to get a hognose in the next 5 years.

Yeah but I'm fun

Oh, I know. I loved that game...but I assumed that everybody eventually moved on.

I just hooked up my 360 last week to play it some, I enjoy just simming games and recruiting

 

[drvenner]

What was the context and the intent. That should be the standard. Wish there was this level of outrage when we take the Lord's name in vain.

There is. You just choose not to hear it.

 

[drvenner]

What was the context and the intent. That should be the standard. Wish there was this level of outrage when we take the Lord's name in vain.

How do you know his intent? He says that word and I have no problem with anyone assuming it was derogatory. There is no defense for the context unless he is testifying about something he heard or read and is required to give a direct quote. What other context or intent could he have? Nothing defensible, IMO. Everyone swears. I try not to take the Lord's name in vain. But, swearing is way different than all the horrible connotations that come with that terrible word.

 

[drvenner]

Damn. I just logged on wasnt paying attention and clicked on my notifications had over 1500. RIP

Good for you!

 

[drvenner]

Did it last week with 12k. Had to take some time to mourn.

Maybe there should be a "are you sure you want to erase your notifications/do you hate barbecue?" popup. @frank

Just check every 10 or so and you don't miss any. Easy peasy, lemon squeeze..

 

[butchna]

@butchna didn't listen to me when I said Eric Crosby would never play meaningful snaps here. Now I’ve got to coach him up on RB2 Banks.

Sole intent here of antagonizing butchna. And because like you said this is a fav VN past time.

Been holding on to that one? I don’t even remember what my take was on him. Hope you haven’t wasted a significant portion of your life thinking you’ve messed with me...ahhh I’m effin with you, don’t care.

 

[butchna]

Well, he hasn't been on the team, iIrc

Before they moved him to linebacker...in his second season?

 

[drvenner]

I'm aware.

So why is it conferning if it's a projection by a radio personality before one workout is even done?

You had Puddin’ pegged as our starting NT!

Hopefully, he will be reinstated and we can continue this discussion

I think I was saying he could play the position. Start...play...whatever...I was wrong.

Yo, @Freak, you send @InVOLuntary and @Bassmaster_Vol on a little male-bonding trip?
