Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[allstar34bd]

Haynesworth said it should have been the black man but instead we hired batman.
BTW Tee isn't qualified for the job.... look at our list of coaches that turned us down! Nothing had to do with race.
He once again embarrasses himself. My goodness.... Tony Elliot and James Franklin said no....
Tennessee is SYSTEMATICALLY RASICIST because a person of color didn't accept the job when offered.

 

[BruinVol]

Ok there has to be a hire or two tomorrow I’d think

and wouldn’t we think there would be 1 maybe 2 Recruits we’d try to grab here late?

 

[LA Vol]

Agreed.... Exactly how I see it.

Yep. The closed circle can talk now.

 

[Sleegro]

And we could barely get lined up right and snap it with 2 seconds on the clock.
Sometimes we couldn’t

I doubt we're gonna see too many delay of game penalties. I honestly can't think of it ever being called on his offense.

Short Squeezes work due to technicals. There will be regulations in place making short squeezes harder. When rich guys take money from millions of people it is business, but when millions of people take money from rich guys its criminal

Crazy to me how a Twitter account from Elon Musk can affect an entire company’s valuation (GameStop) based on his mention of a Reddit thread. This feels like nuovo elites are in a grudge match against historical elites. Reminds me of fight club where Elon is the alter ego (Brad Pitt) version of Edward Norton. I studied finance for 8 years (in 1996-2004). This is foreign to me now. Social law has taken over. Hell, maybe Mr. Met is right. I’m bullish on many businesses right now but this feels like 2005-2007 valuations.

Consistently snapped with 32 or 33 seconds on the play clock.

Up tempo is a great tool, but it works best when you can successfully changed up your tempo. I noticed memphis and tulsa were both games UCF blew with double digit leads in the second half. I wonder if this is partially due to tempo. I would have to rewatch the games.

 

[5FingerVolPunch]

Man, Tiyon Evans re-committing waa absolutely huge now. All we have behind are some unproven guys and not sure Brown will be a good fit for what CJH runs.

He’s the best back on the roster imo. Can’t wait to see him taking snaps.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Haynesworth is so embarrassing

 

[PowerT.]

We need to grab corners badly

 

[jakez4ut]

Taking emotions out of it they did pretty well. Even if JH is a complete flop... I think we will be better situated in the next coaching search.

If you judge the process... It passes the smell test. Didn't get the result I'm sure they wanted... But there was a plan, they executed.

Can't ask for more, regardless of the result. Which really isn't terrible all things considered.

 

[VFL28]

We need to grab corners badly

We talking right angles, obtuse, acute?

 

[UTProf]

Sucks for him, seriously.

I would guess that unless he just wants to be closer to home, he needs to think about coming back. We've had players transfer and return before. It can be done and this staff obviously likes him so...

 

[Ace]

Haynesworth is so embarrassing

Seems like even in NFL, he had serious mental health issues. He needs help.

 

[zhangliao04]

I am just glad he already found a good landing spot...he had so many opportunities to leave and is a legit superstar coach but stayed for his university...and that’s not me saying that with orange tinted homer glasses.

Nothing but respect for him. Really wish CJH would have kept him on staff. I just see him as a RB coach. Not really TE's and then you have it being at Bama.

 

[VOLSONLY]

I started skipping every other page, but that was not enough there for a while.

Yea there was no way to stay caught up, I’d get in from work and be like 130 pages behind. Wore me out

 

[jakez4ut]

Makes sense. I also think DW will do a lot more for the program to build it back up than just this hire. I think that job long term was by far the most important hire and they made a great one imo. The common denominators in our run of bad coaches has been bad leadership above them.

Last point,

 

[jakez4ut]

I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m glad this place has finally slowed down. Volnation was like having a second job for me, I’d read a page and refresh and 3 more would be added. Exhausting

Just told my wife the same thing lol

 

[De La Cloobs]

I read today how fast the tempo is under CJH. I watched some of this game on Youtube. Tempo was certainly crazy.

Tempo so fast and devastating Houston called back to back timeouts just to get their minds right (55:00 mark).

How do you stop this flow barring faking injury?

Hot take...unfortunately very misguided. It’s “systemic”, Albert.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Live in Greenville so most everyone around me are Clemson fans...know some people who knew Tony Elliot before he blew up...they say nothing but great things about...all around good dude and future superstar...they were worried about losing him.

We must be the only vol fans in GVL

 

[Sleegro]

Which was apparent this AM. Armchair quarterbacking, but why in the world did they not sell it as a tag team deal early on after DW was hired. They had to know from preliminary phone calls to agents and coaches that the top guys were not coming. A lot of the rancor would have been avoided.

Seems like most fans would have been madder about that then taking big swings.

 

[UTSuave’]

Very interesting from poster on VQ who heard this -

Deleted for the integrity of our program.

Wish you wouldn’t have deleted it...I was reading it,got half way through and unfortunately got distracted.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Oklahoma sure is getting rich off our program this off-season.

We should target their freshman and sophomores in the transfer market. “Hey guys, we’re sorry Riley doesn’t think you’re good enough to contribute starting minutes and keep recruiting our upper class men. Want to switch?”

 

[ButchAintOne]

I'm interested but not excited

 

[reVOLution33]

Mike Stoops is a name to watch on the defensive staff if Steele leaves.

Please no!!!
