Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[thistime]

If we have freshman or sophomores who can’t see the field at Tennessee how do you expect them to transfer and play at a school like bama, Georgia, or Florida…that makes no sense. This new rule would even the playing field for us not schools that are already good. Juniors and seniors usually stay put if they are playing

I think that the recruiting of players will be continuous, not only for new players but the ones you already have on your roster. That backdoor recruiting will become even more common place and we know young kids like shiny and knew and the lure of rings at some place new is tempting. Its not about school and team anymore, its about the individual and exposure. Who can get a player ready for Sunday or the promise of it true or not is what they all look at anymore.

Tomorrow might be a good day for us Titan fans

Just a feeling? Or is that the day Atlanta can do something?

Not really. Ex we have player A who is a Sophmore hes started 2 years at TN but Bama has a need at that position for the upcoming season. Bama comes in and says your good but we can make you better boom you just lost a starter.
Ex 2.... Fresh/So has friends at Bama/UGA while TN is going 6-6 and struggling to beat UK, His friends at Bama are winning championships, he transfers to those schools to get the perks and hang out with friends wether he plays or not.
Just like this last off season the play off contenders (OU) will poach the better players off of lesser teams to fill holes on their roster.

Something dirty gotta be going on...down in the bayou!

Just realized it's only 3 months. It's been dragging by so slowly I forgot to keep up.

Here is some food for thought, ESPN could be the major cause of the down fall of college sports. They at one time (and still do today to some extent) have controlled the narrative of sports "politics" and in many ways have influenced the National Champions by specific team coverage and Heisman voting by voter influence and could be considered the cause of what is wrong with college sports today. I know this is far fetched in many ways but if you trace it on back it kinds makes you think.

Agree

When I first read this, I thought it ended in chili.

That’s some strange chili. Unquestioned preference for the Cincinnati nonsense if I had to choose between those two options.

I don’t see it…most kids want playing time and great teams usually don’t have a lot of holes to fill and playing time to offer in that regard

But they lie and say they do to get a quality depth player. The player will lose their 1 time transfer and waste a year.

OU tok 3-4 players from our roster alone this off season. Bama took our starting MLB. Kids will fall for the money and the lies.

If you put that into context with the fact our coach was fired and we have potential ncaa sanctions coming our way that roster turnover makes sense….

The point wasnt turnover, the point was where.

Some of these young adults actually have brains and can look up a depth chart off the internet, not saying you are wrong and that what you are saying can’t happen I’d just be more inclined to think this rule change could potentially hurt good football schools just as much

The context of our situation skews your point entirely

Not really. Gilbert is another one that skews you. Transfers from LSU to UGA where he has to split time with Washington. Keep going though youre doing great.

Gilbert is from Georgia originally…another context clue for ya

Sorry this is wrong. Most kids that are elite and coming out hv 1 goal and that's to win and have fun. Kids nowadays that are high 4* and 5* don't mind waiting at Bama, tOSU, UGA, Fla, OK,LSU, or aTm winning is much better than playing time. Winning produces a culture that attracts big time prospects and before anyone ask yes they still pay kids.

Lol so you’re telling me that I’m wrong in saying that players don’t transfer to other schools for more playing time, am I really having to argue this point on this board? Im not disagreeing with your viewpoint at all, but to say im wrong is just plain dumb

 

[Volitaire]

Like I said, keep going youre doing great.

Sure I’m totally wrong in pointing out kids also transfer for more playing time… laughable

In your OP you said the schools that would benfit from the rules would be us and not the good schools and thats just not true. The good schools will pick apart the bad schools, and the kids they let transfer for playing time are going to be kids that dont make the cut.
Ex...... play 4 years at TN and beat the hell out of your body and tear it up. Or sit the bench at Bama for 3 years, go to multiple championships and then play for 1 year and get drafted.
Another example Justin Fields... transferred for playing time, where did he go? One of the other champ contenders.
