Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[TrippieRedd]

Per the podcast, other schools aren't even trying to get BJ Edwards to come for an official visit.

That 30 point game last week must have gotten to his head

i can't wait for one and done to officially be over. this G-League or College decision is just wasting everyone's time

edit: I'm mostly speaking in general, or about emoni bates.

Lol I did for sure. The lady wanted me to pick up this and I got absolutely hammered last night. My tolerance is zero. Highly recommend though

I have cut way back on drinking myself, just have no desire for the hangover no more. That stuff would probably hurt my stomach as I only drink beer when I do partake.

Yeah I stopped drinking heavy once my unc died from Cirrhosis of the liver a few years ago.

I can't drink beer, all of it taste terrible. My buddy brought over this weird IPA he loves and he let me try it....tasted like pepper and piss.

That means other schools know he is a Vol and don't want to waste their time recruiting him

Never understood the IPA hype. Also not a beer guy but I got turned on to some German wheat beers while in Munich. Damn those are smooth. 10/10 recommend.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

You’re right, one was American and one was Conference USA, right? Still, FAU was beating some good teams and got handled by UCF

They literally recruit the same. UCF never recruits higher than the 50's. In the years before Lane coached against Heup they were separated by about 5 spots in recruiting rankings. And in the 60's, who cares? They're the same. Heup out-coached Kiffin. period.

Oh Ok. Maybe it's the optimist in me but I took that to mean they think he's a done deal to UT.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

They beat plenty of teams with comparable or more talent than they had the past 3 years

They went toe to toe with LSU in 2018 with a back up QB who was terrible. Heup still put up 32 against them and had a chance to win in spite of Mack turning the ball over multiple times.

 

[volbeast33]

It's really not close, and it's mostly due to style of play.

Yeah Lane proved that in their head to head matchups..... can’t wait to watch heupel skull drag Kiffin this year.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I’m way behind, but is he gonna be ok? Will the doctors save his arm? Thoughts and prayers. I’m 36 and I still remember the NBA days where players didn’t get maintenance days, didn’t flop, and didn’t advocate for Marxist politics. Those Bulls/Pacers and Bulls/Knicks playoff series were must see tv. Now I have no idea which teams are good anymore. On a more serious note, anyone who says LeBum is better than MJ, Kobe, Bird, Magic, or Kareem can’t be taken seriously.

BOOM

I don't mind trying new things, but I don't think I could find a beer I like and drink it....actually I will say I had this beer a few weeks ago and it tasted like those Yoohoo chocolate milks.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Let's hope so!

One revolutionized Alabama's entire offense and program, the other went 6-10 in conference for Barry Odom.

Love beer. IPA is awful.

One coaches for Nick Saban and one coached for Barry Odom...... did you see how he changed the Missouri offense from one of the worst in league history to one of the best with some of the leagues worse personnel.

Good grief this is stupid. One was coaching for Nick Saban. The other was coaching for Barry Odom. Your absurdity knows no bounds

 

[SweetasSoda]

every coach sucked this past year not named Nick Saban. Check the SEC standings as well as other conferences. Lack of time and covid phucked up a lot of coaching and teaching time. I’m not sure why only UT fans can’t see this as a fact.

We saw it. But then he lost to a first time head coach who had only been a position coach with a much worse roster than him. There was literally no reason for us to say....it wasn't his fault.

Doesn't fit his narrative

Beer is gross, I've tried several hundred craft beers and hated all but a couple, and those were just tolerable.

Good wine and good whiskey is about all I'll drink anymore, and only small quantities. Good wine is really the only thing I can't feel the next day, my body just sucks at processing alcohol these days.

It benefits the NBA and it’s their rule.

Lol, several hundred?!? By number 12 I’d be like “this ain’t for me!”

Talent levels. When they were on equal footings, Heupel ate his lunch...and Layla watched over Zoom.

He found a downfield passing game........all he did was akin to switching from 87 gas to 93 gas in a Ferrari.

Not that revolutionary IMO.

Exactly. Kiffin won 11 games in 2019. And still lost to Heupel 48-14.

Another thing I looked up:
year before hype:2015 Missouri 13.58 ppg....2016 Missouri hype 1st yr 31.42, 2nd year 37.54 ppg
year before kiffin Alabama 38.2 ppg, kiffin 2014 Alabama 36 ppg, 2015 Alabama 42.8. 2016 Alabama 38.8, 2017 Alabama 37.1..... the next year is when he exploded for over 50 a game...... doesn’t seem like he did a better job than hype given the difference in talent of the players.
