Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Enki_Amenra]

And when is the last time that has happened? We haven’t even been to the championship game since 2007. And we think adding more good teams will help us get there? How will you like watching playing elite teams week in and out and getting our faces smeared? That’s fun?

That wasn't the fan's fault. Our administration caused such a dysfunctional atmosphere, it led, in large part, to the mediocrity of the program.

I honestly believe we will be in the playoffs in the next 5 years.

We did it before when the conference was weak

The conference wasn't weak. We were strong and made it seem that way.

Lmfao. TN and FL were the only teams worth a damn.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Why is there such a pride to stay in SEC? Just because they we are a founding member isn’t a good reason. The only reason we stay is for the money, however there is no doubt our path to becoming a great program would be way easier in the ACC. Isn’t the whole point of football winning games and having a chance at the title game?

The whole point is to be the best team and not a giant pussywillow. If you want to win it all you have to beat the best teams anyways.

 

[Weezer]

Finding out about a lot of people I'd hate to go to war with.

"It's too hard, let's just run away!"

 

[Volitaire]

Horrible take... we are ingrained in SEC tradition. We belong nowhere else. Could you imagine getting hyped up to play wake forest? We have been down but I want to try and beat UGA, Bama and UF not run from them. We will get back too. I think you should cheer on a different orange such as Syracuse.

I’ll be pumped playing teams like Miami, FSU, Clemson, or even a UNC…making the playoffs should be the goal

No the whole point is making it to the playoffs not dog tired and injured after running through a stacked SEC schedule to get there so your team has a chance to win it all…

Geographically speaking, I wouldn’t mind seeing Tennessee play Clemson, Virginia Tech, UNC, NCST, or even Wake Forest. I hate that realignment is going to take potential geographic rivalries with it.

And what has changed so much in our administration that we are all the sudden making great decisions? We just ratted ourselves to the NCAA, which is going to cause millions of dollars to fix. Unless we got lucky as hell with JH, I would be shocked if we even win an SEC title within five years.

It's like participation trophy central. "Let's go somewhere we know that little Johnny can win some games".

How about suck it up, get better, and compete with the best in college football.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Nor does Texas A&M or Missouri belong in the SEC

ive said that since day 1, check my stats broheimsef.

You got some sort of blinders on?

Then when we get squashed by Bama or some other SEC team are you gonna call for a separate National Championship system?

 

[Catbone]

Those aged 30+ stuck in the past. That's the way I see it anyway.

Get squashed? Clemson has beat them?

 

[Weezer]

Those below 30 are a bunch of pansies is the way I see it.

Apologies to any youngsters that have an actual sack.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Lmfao. TN and FL were the only teams worth a damn.

I thought Bama was in line for a NC in 90's but couldnt because they cheated...Arkansas was ranked...Saban won one at LSU.

One thing thats chapped my ass about all these changes to make CFB more competitive have actually made it less.

 

[Volitaire]

If we get squashed by bama in the playoffs at least we can say we made it there and had a chance lol bama has already been doing that to every team they have faced for the past 15 years so no shame in that

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Those aged 30+ stuck in the past. That's the way I see it anyway.

Those 30+ are old enough to know this works in cycles. For different reasons, people cried when ark and USCar joined, people cried about ATM & Mizzou. Now there is crying about Texas & OU.

 

[Weezer]

Then there's no shame in losing to them in the regular season either.

You win the SEC, you are the defacto champion.

You’re a fool. We are not and will not ever be leaving the SEC.

“Lol what has changed” I’d say getting rid of the worst AD in history who shall not be named because of reasons on this board and the worst coach in UT history are pretty substantial changes

 

[Volitaire]

You’re a fool. We are not and will not ever be leaving the SEC.

You are probably right because we love money

Somebody hurry up and win this debate so I can figure out my travel itinerary in two years.
