Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[utvolmaniac]

Could move Bama to the East side-- they may think it's good.

Bama and Aubie to the East, Tx and OU to the West….Missou moves to the West.

West: Ole Miss, Miss St, LSU, Arky, Missou, TX, OU, TX A&M

East: UT, SCar, Uga, Fla, Vandy, Bama, Aubie, KY

This would be the precursor to Super Conferences - maybe only 4 conferences comprised of 16 teams each…West, Midwest, Southeastern, Atlantic. Two Divisions in each conference.

Teams like Baylor, TCU, TX Tech out West; Iowa St, KS, K State, Okie St to the Midwest with the Big 10 teams, ACC and Big East merger. Granted, some teams get left behind. Evolution.

Here’s a non Texas OU question

Obviously we know Heupels wins went down each year. Last year covid was hard for everyone. Do we see this as him running UCF into the ground or just some unlucky close losses?

I’ll be honest. I’ve gotten on every train and gotten hyped up with every new coach but we’ve been bitten so many times. I’m afraid of of getting my hopes up. I want to but I don’t know if I trust Heupel to be the guy.

Hope he's the guy.

He had a lot of opt-outs last year. Mostly all of their losses were very close. I think they lost 3 games by a total of 11pts in 2019.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

He didn't really bet his left nut, I'm just being sarcastic.

He basically said HB was super inconsistent all through the Spring and not impressive based on who he talked to in the program. And after his 30 second diatribe he says "But it might be HB, I'm not making any predictions". Lol.

HB doesnt practice well.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I try to be an optimist, but what makes you say this? I'm still thinking of the team that could barley put up 3 td's in a game. But I guess most of that team is gone now.

I’m watching the 2019 Pitt/UCF game. They cannot guard UCF’s speedy receivers. Our receivers are faster. Our RB is faster. They will not be able to keep up with us.

Also, they are known for defense. They lost their five best defenders to the draft last year. So their defense will take a step back, while our offense will jump.

Their QB is a R-SR. He’s terrible. His last 3 years as a starter:
2018: 50.8% 1,969 12/6
2019: 61.6 3,098 13/9
2020: 61.1 2,408 13/9

He’s not good. Their offense is weak. Defense is mediocre. They won’t be able to keep up. We’re going to beat them 45-24 or something like that

As is the offensive scheme behind those stats.

If your the SEC you have to take TX and OK. If they are dead set in leaving you either take them or let another conference get stronger. Chris Low said today that he doubt it stops at TX/OK. That he thinks this could lead to a mega power 5 conference. He said he thinks you could see all the big boys get together

good. refreshing

 

[nicksjuzunk]

They're keeping us with bama no matter what

 

[Smokeytom]

How many conf titles and national titles has he won?

If the standard is 9-10 wins, then yes, Tennessee can get there…

9-10 wins at Tennessee will bring the big names

 

[Nashvegas31]

Apparently Greg Emerson running around His hometown trying to say he is going to Bama lol. Some sports store there posted a pic with him saying he was going to Bama. Yeah ok we will see. They either desparate or he walking on. Maybe she misunderstood him

 

[nicksjuzunk]

So no longer would we always play the weak teams of Mizzou, KY, and SC.

Imagine a TN schedule that looks like this:

Bama
Auburn
Vandy
Florida
GA
LSU
A&M
Ok
Texas

That's what y'all want?

As bad as Texas has been lately, it wouldn't surprise me that the Longhorn Network is on it's last leg anyway.

Just heard on the local atx radio today: they have a total of 7 employees.

They have no problem giving up the LHN to join the SEC.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Did he actually say left nut? If so, we know he's been reading VN.

No he didn’t say anything like that. It is amazing what people think they hear and make up. he only said what he always says that everyone hangs on to HB Spring game but he didn’t have a great spring prior to that and does he carry that performance into Fall or was the rest of spring the real HB… thst is all he has said and continues to say is be cautious based of spring game optimism and that you just hear a lot of talk about a Milton on campus and Hooker was the consistent practice guy

 

[Orange Studs]

Milton definitely looks the part

I think his record tells us nothing. It's insufficient data. We just have to hope for the best and that we've finally found our guy.

Haell no! They’re colors are red and black - they’ll claim they “blacked out” Neyland….

Well they would wear their Whites… so…

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

I don't know why the idea of Milton looking good makes some people so mad lol.

I want the media saying "Wow QB X has looked really sharp through camp so far" and not "QB Y has looked the least terrible of the four I guess."

Does HB have like a dozen uncles on this site? Who gives a damn who wins it. I just want one talented QB in there.

Probably because the last QB everyone said looked good lost us games at will.

RIP Officer Tim Laycock

Knox County Sheriff’s Office mourns sudden passing of deputy (msn.com)

No disrespect meant, but epic last name.

I work as a service tech at a dealership and we have to screen shot and print a copy of the codes if we dont have that the factory wont pay for the repair so in other words if we cant get it to throw a code we cant do any kind of warranty repair unless the dealership eats the repair.

This sucks for car owners because I took the car in over 3 times and even had a different Mechanic look at it (who told me yeah the transmission could go at anytime) after Nissan told me “nothing” was wrong. Even though the vehicle literally completely stalled out with my kids and wife in it on railroad tracks.

So then when the transmission finally goes out it’s out of warranty yet I am liable at that point since it’s not in warranty. It’s pretty crappy on a dealership. Also, the car is only 4 years old. So it shouldn’t have transmission issues anyways especially since we took it in regularly to get serviced.

They’re not…in camp? If he’s the best after real life camp then I agree with you…somewhat.

@nicksjuzunk tweaked my back finishing a pull on one of my light sets late last week. Rested it a couple of days and then re-tweaked it two days ago. Any suggestions for rehab exercises to get it loosened up?
edited to say retweaked it just picking up a dumbbell. Wasnt deadlifting at the time.

Constant issue for me too. Actually had a mild spasm yesterday that is still lingering. My body absolutely hates any hip extension movements now, and I toyed with some light Romanian deadlifts that ticked it off. I’ll need to step back from leg movements outside of extensions and leg curious for a week to get it to calm down.

Foam rolling can help. Massage Gun too. Stretching out your hip flexors with a kneeling lunge like stretch and a variety of hip stretches are what I’m going with now.

These guys always have good things to say. I’m interested to try the band on the hip
