Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Glitch]

Good times. Who hasn't beat a fellow student to score some weed?

Apparently the players were partying pretty late into the night in Omaha. Wouldn’t expect much

This is baseless speculation with no supporting evidence that you are parroting from an anonymous poster in the baseball forum who also said it was speculation. These kids didn't spend all year working to get to Omaha to then party the night away instead of trying to win games. Some of our players are seniors. It's their last shot. I can guarantee they aren't out there drinking in Omaha before the biggest game of their life.

I wonder, what would Woodward think about his new coach letting his guys party late in to the night prior to a CWS game?

Daredevil, Batman was DC, what was the marvel he was in.

which had a decent shot at DD series. Cast all right characters, till it became Karen show.

How and who decided Vincent D'Onofrio would become a back seat character? Lord, what a waste of one of THE most interesting story lines. Show went to after that.

Apparently the last 2 seasons were supposed to be Kingpin heavy. I wish they made Bullseye more of a straight up psychopath that merked Karen like in the comics because she was annoying af haha.

Javonta Payton

STRONG SUITS
The biggest assets the 6-foot-1, 180-pound Payton will bring to Tennessee's offense are his speed and his versatility to work either out of the slot or an as outside receiver, and the Vols could use him in both spots. On the outside, his speed can stretch the field, and in the slot, the Vols can pick out matchups for him and let him work over the middle of the field or toward the sideline against man coverage. It was just one game, but Payton displayed both of those aspects of his game in a big way against a talented LSU secondary in his big game.

Another advantage for Payton is his experience as he's played two seasons in the SEC and four seasons of college football (the level of competition for the Mississippi junior colleges is pretty good), which will help in a receiving corps that is rather inexperienced. This being Payton's final season of eligibility, he'll look at it as a contract year as well. His value on special teams can't be overlooked, too, as he provides a complement for Velus Jones Jr. on kickoff returns and is willing to do the job on coverage units — he led Mississippi State with 15 special teams tackles (nine on kickoffs and six on punts) in 2019.

EARLY OUTLOOK
First order of business for Payton, who's been on campus since last month, is learning Tennessee's offense and becoming comfortable in the scheme while also building a rapport and developing a quality connection and timing with the Vols' quarterbacks. He has two-plus months of workouts to assimilate to a new program and prepare himself to be ready to compete for a role in the offense during the preseason. Payton is the kind of hard worker and veteran presence that should transition seamlessly to his new team.

The biggest question the Vols have to decide with Payton is where in the offense he fits best, because that could determine who he's competing with for playing time in the fall. Tennessee might not be entirely rigid with locking its wideouts into one position within the scheme, and Payton's versatility could help his case, provided he's able to learn multiple spots quickly in what will be the third different offense he's played in in three years. Based on the spring, Payton could encounter more competition in the slot than outside.

EXPECTATIONS
Tennessee's new coaching staff was pleased with how the wide receivers finished the spring and it appeared the Vols had started developing some depth at the position. Jones was a steady performer as you would expect, Jalin Hyatt looked explosive the final couple of weeks of practices after working his way back from an injury, Jimmy Calloway and Cedric Tillman were consistent standouts, Jimmy Holiday showed some promise despite being limited and newcomers Andison Coby and Walker Merrill did some good things. Yet the Vols still opted to add another weapon.

Payton didn't come to Tennessee to stand on the sideline or just play on special teams, so odds are he's going to wind up firmly a part of the rotation at receiver. His speed and versatility should get him at least to that point, and how big a part of the offense will depend on his production and how the rest of the receiving corps shakes out. You can never have enough playmakers, or depth at the position that probably does the most running in this offense, and Payton gives Tennessee an experienced player who still has some upside.

have a buddy that went to Private School, pipip, that knew her. I think actress who played her is from Nashville org? I dunno, there's a connection there, she has a brother or something. Anyway, liked her in series, just too much time spent in backstory. Waaay too much.

Milton seems to be the favorite with the VQ mods. Remember? The one’s who basically ruled out HB and had it in a dead heat between Hooker and Maurer? I won’t argue that Milton doesn’t have the best set of PHYSICAL skills, but accuracy, knowledge of the offense and experience with fellow skill players are areas where the other candidates aren’t going backwards to make an even playing field…and I personally believe Bailey advances the offense better than the other two. Health considered, Velus Jones, Hyatt and Calloway should have standout seasons, and there’s room for more.

Milton would be a great RB in CJH's offense. Just don't let him throw the ball. Kid has the accuracy of a drunken frat kid in a gas station bathroom.

 

[jacobyvoln27]

I don’t know if prison counts….. 5 years without a woman and you will stick it into anything.

Your on your own there brother!

 

[Orange Studs]

I think Milton is your Day 1 Starter

Based on what? His performance at MI? LOL

Daredevil is marvel

yeah I haven't had coffee yet when I was pushing through the cobwebs in my head.

Yeah I liked first season. But the GOAT is The Punisher series on Netflix. Was just BA.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I think most coaches lean toward safe, stable - the one that will make the least amount of mistakes. The "game manager" type. Coaches love that guy.

But not Huepel - he wants the risk taker, the gun slinger, the most upside - that's Milton. It's a risky risky move, but I think he goes with Milton day 1.

He wants a guy the can actually throw it where a receiver can catch it most of the time...this dudes accuracy is abysmal

 

[Ace]

Bailey is this teams QB

 

[Devo182]

Plus fair or unfair a QB is considered a leader of the team. 2 arrests already. Pathetic

Fwiw he wasn't arrested. Charged and released. Very minor offenses.

Unfortunately VQ mods know very little about football

But none of us have the opportunity to start for the University of Tennessee.

bingo

 

[T Dog]

By the end of your five years…. Your pants would be sagging lol

At RB, maybe. I don't want him throwing the ball unless it is a trick play.

 

[Glitch]

Speak for yourself.

I think you meant "Speak of yourself".

None of us are supposed to lead the Tennessee Volunteer football team..

I understand. I was just pointing out that we have a lot of idiots that post here. That's all.

Here is a live look at the future of our offense if Milton is the day 1 starter.

I'd love to be wrong, but I'm not.

He's not leaving
