Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[drvenner]

Will be praying. My 19 month grandson is in the ER right now. Been running 102 temp since Sunday and has a scabby rash on his face. They are saying is a staff infection. Tough when the little ones are sick.

Prayers for your little one as
Well for a full and speedy recovery.

I think it's going to hurt TN recruiting with the dead period extending. Zoom calls only do so much.

My 15 year old daughter got her first job today. If we get a discount I'm fixing to get fat on delicious pizza and garlic knots.

Glitch next year be like

I’m starting to look at this in a different way and I like it. I think Barnes realize that this team can’t reach it’s ceiling playing thru the post(fulkerson) like Barnes likes to do and this team prepared to do all off-season and half of this season.

I think when it became painfully obvious that SV couldn’t lead us to the final four Barnes left his comfort zone and let us become a perimeter oriented dribble drive team. In doing that Fulky and Pons were destined to have an adjustment period and Springer and Keon would also have great moments but also inconsistencies. The end result gives us the best chance to win big in March but also gives us the best chance to lose some games in the short term

I see this as two seasons in one with a pretty significant philosophy change

I believe you are 100% right that Barnes is developing new strategies in prep for the tournament. Their defense isn't as good as earlier. Fulkerson looks weaker than last year. I really think any team that plays us physical has a decent shot at beating us.

Not really wild about this hire. Willie M has never struck me as a good player development coach. Still, he's a guy that Heupel and Banks both have worked with before and are obviously comfortable with. I'm sure they know a heck of a lot more than I do.

I was almost 40 when my son was born. Daughter when I was 42. They are now 18 and 15. I have had to work hard to keep up. Sports, Scouts, Dance, and other activities. It’s been a blast. I don’t know that I was prepared for kids when I was younger. It drives my friends nuts that I am always ready to do whatever activities that the kids want to do and I am ghe oldest parent in our group

We adopted my daughter who was 9.5 months old, when I was almost 40. She is 16 now and it was very challenging just keeping up with her. I would not trade it for anything. It's been a helluva ride.

Why didn’t he get to hire all of them

He obviously knew about Garner and Martinez before he signed the contract. So we can assume he was ok with working with them. It's even possible that knowing they would be on board helped convince him to come here.

Why didn’t he get to hire all of them

And that’s probably why no one would accept the DC job before

This may be indirectly related to COVID-19, but is appears to be a classic case of alopecia universalis. I’ve dealt with this after a very stressful period in my life. The biggest hurdle is psychological. No matter how comfortable you are in your own skin, it can be a bit daunting. I wish him the best.

All I am gonna say is I hope he does a good job this time.

I'm curious as well.


Wonder if it was drug abuse related.


Edit: nvm

Ha look in a *** king mirror.

DC doesn’t get to hire everyone.
It’s the Head football coach’s staff.

 

[Sleegro]

So glad to hear they're making season 3 and 4

Yeah that show is so good. Bill Hader is a genius.

 

[BruinVol]

This is exactly how Fulky needs to play now. Give us 10-12 slashing garbage points and 6-8 boards.

 

[drvenner]

We miss JJJ's rebounding tonight.

We miss JJJ's rebounding tonight.

Didn’t even realize we were missing him until this post

Right, did sherrer hire all his assistants? Did shoop? If a DC leaves, does the new DC hire all new assistants. How often does a DC ever pick all his position coaches . Bet it's not as often as people think.

I dont have the Martinez hire. I actually like it as it adds more SEC experience.

Ha look in a *** king mirror.

I see a successful person

We had our first son when I was 39 and second at 43. It’s been a fun ride (I’m also 56). It helps to have wife that is high energy and looks and acts 20 years my junior.

 

[drvenner]

Refs have changed this game. Two terrible calls in a row.

 

[Ace]

All I am gonna say is I hope he does a good job this time.

He did better last time than anyone we have had since he left.
Recruited Cam Sutton and Juan Jennings

Usually that’s the case unless the owners a prick.
Hopefully for you it’s really good pizza
