Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

It’s sad but I don’t think it is a surprise to anyone. Maybe he didn’t work hard enough or maybe he didn’t have the physical tools to begin with.

It’s clearly always been the mental side of things for him. He barely made it into school

Just realized I've been here 6 years on September 1st and none of you congratulated me. I believe that to be quite the accomplishment that they've let me stay around this long.

Prompted me to take a look. I’m coming up on yr 9. Unless I get a year 0, then I’m only 8.

Prompted to look as well. Joined October 19 2008. Can’t believe it’s been 12 years on here

So what, I’d rather play bama with Saban at the helm. I’d rather win or lose that way than it become a excuse either way.

I will take a win over bama regardless of the circumstances.
They can have all the excuses and asterisks...just give Tennessee the win.

I do want bama to beat the ever livin crap outta the dawgs first though...

JJP news makes me super sad.

Ultimately the blame falls on the kids shoulders but some of it should fall on Propst also...didn't really do a great job in helping him get prepared for Tennessee.

Though you wouldn't know it by the amount of posts I have, I'm coming up on 14 years next week - 10/23/2006.

Mindset and habits

Slacking grades, multiple HS pregnancies, and showing up to camp out of shape on day one. You are only as good as the habits you build and he didn’t seem to be able to grow. Unfortunate for him

Dexter is returning to Showtime for a 1 run season. Awesome!

Wait what. When

Prior to that is a home environment that did him no favors. Things ingrained since childhood are hard to overcome, so I will not drag him over the coals. I thought this is how it would play out but that doesn’t make it any better. I was hoping he would defy the odds

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Promise is a promise.
Groom changed my son’s life.

The Vols will win whether I am watching or not. I will definitely see the game, just not live...

Okay, obviously the loss is on me. I was able to watch the 1st half of the game live.
Then left for the wedding at halftime.

Damn my stinkin’ hide. Sorry y’all.

Congrats on not being a quitter. Prompted me to look at mine as well. Coming up on 8 years

How do you know that?

Lol, we've lost some good posters since I've been around. 2010 actually. I hated Leb but I actually miss some of the normal characters you saw in here. There were plenty of others.

DONT WORRY I’M STILL HERE

Maybe you y should consider not announcing this to the mods. J/s

You all missed my 10 year anniversary here this past January. WTH, Morans?

 

[Vols4us]

Ole Miss ST QB is ahead of JG at 13. lol

PFF does quality, statistically sound analytics for both pro and college. Whether you agree with their methods or not - they are consistent and used in negotiations in NFL contracts.

A 5th year senior at #13 is beyond pathetic.

careful what you endorse because you need to know that PFF had JG rated as one of the top QBs coming back last season and also gave him an above average gradeS for the first two games this season.

But by all means disregard those optimistic PFF grades but use this one in which a second half at Georgia and it’s small sample size feeds the “Pruitt is a damn fool for playing that bum” Crowd

He’s going to be remembered as one of the greats. I hope he can go out with at least an SEC East championship.

So, I’m seeing some folks suggesting the fanbase is not happy with Pruitt and he would be squarely on the hot seat with a loss this weekend.

1) do you feel that way?
2) I’m stunned, if it’s the case, that I’m not leading the charge.

I like Pruitt and think he’s done a good job. I’d rate it about 7/10.

 

[bignewt]

blah blah, press conference speak. I bet its a bit different inside that locker room.

I'm guessing these are the "never pruitters" in the FF?

Good thing you don’t know ****.

He just got an extension if he loses this week hes 100% not on the hot seat
