Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Batman1948]

I heard the leaker does not have a street named after him/her. That eliminates Tee.

Two things happened---the he/she took information straight to Plowman and then the one with the street named after him took it to TW in the media. Plenty of people in Knoxville know the story but are keeping it under wraps, probably because of who went to Plowman. Maybe it will all come out some day and maybe it won't. It really doesn't matter at this point because the damage is already done. When the punishment comes, they'll deal with it and move on.

Their season literally starts in 2 weeks why would he leave now?

It doesn’t make sense to me just curious why his name was tossed around.

seems like a game of reverse Rochambeau.

Pruitts staff was easily the best recruiting staff we’ve had in 15+ years, but was grossly underwhelming.

In my opinion, we need good football minds and coaches that attract strong players by style of play

He was boom or bust. If he didn’t land his top target he didn’t have the next two options in line. He would piss them off by acting they were nothing while he put all eggs in the top guys basket. He struggled with the middle ground think he could beat Bama/UGA for these kids which put us in a spot at DL and CB where he would miss on his top guy and not have someone else

Have you been to either Skylight Inn in Ayden, NC or Sam Jones BBQ in Greenville/Raleigh? Sam's whole hog is for sure on par with Rodney's.

For my 10th grade 15-page IB paper circa 2002, most of my friends were picking boring subjects like the Nazi invasion of Poland, NAFTA, etc. I decided to do mine on Eastern North Carolina barbecue. My mom and I went on a long-weekend road trip and probably ate at 10 different spots.

i haven’t but I have seen some stuff about Skylight Inn on Man Fire Food. Looks great.

That sounds like an epic BBQ tour! My favorite BBQ style is Eastern Carolina so I would definitely enjoy that road trip.

is that 5986 Kingston Pike? On my way...

Bill Walton’s commentating has been weirdly awkward for a while now. I don’t even watch much pro basketball, but I remember more than once that he’d be in the middle of an NBA game and then go on a tangent like he just had an acid flashback to a wild Grateful Dead show from 1972.

just 72 huh? wonder if itd been a Warlock '66 Acid Test flashback?!

Can I get a Go Vols!!! And Fulky needs less minutes.

Fulky has been playing through injuries all season but he's giving it everything he has

And so much more money for the gubermint when they quit locking people up for it and all the money that it cost the taxpayers doing that.

But there has to be a balance. Those absurd "sin taxes" they place on it in some locales simply drives people right back to buying from their neighbor.

And they could get away with it (and still can) as long as only some states legalize it (due to tourists). But once it is legal everywhere, they will have to use more reasonable taxation policies imo.

That flag is actually a construction safety flag.

That's true. Before I retired, I saw that flag on cranes all over the country when I traveled for my job. It does look cool though

That's exactly how I imagined the WaHo corporate office sign to look.

Query: How much time have you spent thinking about the Waffle House corporate office sign?

Follow-up Query: Have you heard of the interwebs and something called a search engine?

I'll hang up and listen.

Boom!

There's a new Sheriff in the Hall

No accumulation of snow here in mid TN but some of the pics people are sending in from areas east to our local tv station are pretty.

I’m in West Nashville and we’ve got some accumulation. Not quite covering all of the grass but close to it.

Yep too many taxes, thats why Home Grow is so important. Virginia says you can have 4 plants 2 of which is mature.

Does that mean 4 plants in each room of which 2 is mature?

 

[T Dog]

I'm so ready for JH to announce the staff.

 

[T Dog]

Does that mean 2 to 4 plants in each room?

I don't know the exact wording yet. But I would assume per household. Although it should be for each adult, and by adult I mean over 18, if you can go to war and die for this country, or be in law enforcement you should be able to do adult themed things.

I know. Then we will have something concrete to complain about instead of just rumors and theories!

Look at the recruiting rankings of the last 10 national champions and report back.

We are not winning a NC anytime soon..we need to focus on beating Kentucky regularly first.

Ok. Your previous post gave me the impression that this was something that had been plaguing you for some time now. Glad that is all cleared up.

It’s a no brainer, can’t for the life of me figure out why people complain about Barnes. He’s worth every penny IMO, especially when you consider the alternative.

People complain about not paying for a big name football coach, yet complain about paying up for a top bball coach.

Sound like Georgia fans.
