Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[butchna]

Kiffin was a home run on paper, especially with him bringing O and his hall of fame daddy as DC. The way things played out there is plain Big Orange bad luck.

Dooley is the one that didn’t have the resume to even make the short list.

He was the hot former championship team assistant who’d landed a NFL HC gig at a young age. It was between us and Clemson. And now…you know the rest of the story.

Dooley won the PC. Cautionary tale.

Stat I just read... In spite of all their 5 stars and top recruits, GA has had 0 DL drafted since 2013. Zero. Nada. Kids should pay attention to that and come play for Garner

How is that possible? Defies reason.

That Jenkins Method keeps paying dividends…huh @GreysonLambert?

Can you name one in that span? I can't

Straight to the point. Brevity is good.

Pals is solid, but I wouldn't go as far as best fast food fries. Their breakfast is good too.

If I could bring one chain from TN to the Missouri/Arkansas area it would be Cookout. Similar price to Pals, but better.

And Bojangles. Man I miss bojangles.

I'm in SW Missouri and would do unspeakable, illegal things to have a Krystal's and a Bojangles close by. You can have Cookout, the only thing I liked there (spent 8 years in NC, wife is from there) was their sweet tea.

 

[SSVol]

No, I can't. I don't doubt Bass. It's just hard to believe, given a defensive minded coach, unlimited bag budget, and deep recruiting waters.

I didn't believe this until I just looked it up. Looks like the last D-lineman they had drafted was John Jenkins in 2013.

Ive always felt like Kirby did less with more with all the talent he had. Hopefully kids pay attention to stats like this.

You’re wrong…starts tomorrow.

@volinbama256 is right though - every article I've read on NIL has omitted Tennessee as a state which has a law going into action at midnight. I had to go and double check myself to make sure I wasn't misinformed.

You were. We didn’t wait.

So is what is hanging is own arm? Is that like a sleeve or something over it?

My best guess is that the sleeve is to help with blood flow/prevent venous pooling since his muscles can’t do that for him. Can’t think of another reason why he would always wear it

 

[Ten_Titans]

I STG IF ANY OF OUR FOOTBALL TEAM POSTS THIS **** I AM CANCELLING MY SEASON TICKETS AND DEMANDING THEIR SCHOLARSHIPS BE REVOKED


SERIOUSLY THEY DID ALL THIS JUST TO GO 3-9

Nothing to do at that point except petition the NCAA and hope they give us the death penalty.

Yeah - I worded my response incorrectly. I double checked to make sure because it didn't make sense they're not including Tennessee as one of the states in the articles. All of them have omitted Tenn. I wondered if it was because it was amended and they didn't bother to look. Regardless, I'm glad we're in the early adapters phases of this just from a perception standpoint in recruiting.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Are Krystal's still around? One's in Alcoa, Bristol, etc closed.

I think they are slowly dying. Which is a shame. Back in the day they were amazing.

Now, the apathy of McDonald's employees has nothing on Krystal's. I've been to a handful of them in the last few years and I feel like I'm gonna have to run hands with the cashier just to get my stale food.

Mea culpa…goes into effect in January. The 5 states that passed it for July 1 are open to legal challenges…which is why Tennessee pushed it back.

Knock yourself out.

We wanted to do that...

 

[drvenner]

Do you know what a scholarship is worth? That is a ****** fortune to me. It is invaluable to the "student-athletes" that are smart enough to take it seriously.

I do know what a scholarship is worth.

 

[drvenner]

He who must not be named. Or many pages denouncing him shall ensue.

I knew it!! You cannot spell VOLdemort with VOL.

 

[drvenner]

It should have been Patterson. He wanted it. Wasn’t good enough for Hambone.

He picked Kiffin over Patterson because he thought Patterson was too much like F*****. His mismanagement is the gift that will never stop giving, apparently.

 

[drvenner]

This year they’re better than us is all I am saying.

I think that remains to be seen. Missouri was not better than us last year and we were awful. Kentucky was considerably better than us during our game, for sure.

 

[Christian Lowe]

And you’re wrong…not a new occurrence.

Everyone not a Tennessee fan thinks otherwise. But alright.

 

[drvenner]

7-6
5-7
6-4 the past 3 years.. We'd be in the same position we're in now minus the investigation, with a new coach

Doubtful.

 

[drvenner]

Maybe today. But Patterson had a run there with a bunch of 3 stars at TCU. What would he have done with our resources? Certainly better than Kiffin, Dools, Butch, and Pruitt.

By a landslide.
