Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Orange Studs]

We had no DL coach last year. Now we have Rodney Garner. And people think there won't be a difference.

Well we did have one very briefly but he got fired in the middle of a game. lol I expect our DL to be 100% better than last year.

Loved hearing Golesh talk about receiving input from Kodi Burns (having SEC experience) and Jerry Mack (former OC). Maybe it's coach speak, but Golesh was almost gushing at the RB's and OL.

He also said that we were close to being two deep in the OL depth which is really encouraging. Our RB I believe are going to be studs this year.

Pepi joining us is HUGE

I want Dike to get healthy and back on the roster. I like him up top.

In 2019 at UCF when Heupel had a QB competition before the season, he announced Brandon Wimbush 1 week before their first game (a Thursday game), but also noted Dillon Gabriel would get an opportunity in the first game." Be interested to see how he phrases his announcement.

Also to give everyone more reason to believe in our offense. On that 2019 UCF team, Dillon Gabriel was 3rd(maybe 4th) string headed into summer behind Darriel Mack broke his ankle, then Brandon Wimbush started the season opener and then Dillon Gabriel started the 2nd game after Wimbush had an undisclosed injury that forced him out for the 2nd game of the year.

All that to say, Heupel will get good QB play out of this team whoever it ends up being (it's gonna be Milton)

It is likely on a local affliate in Knoxville. Something like MYVLT or something similar.

He was talking about bringing a good attitude into the meeting. That's it. People are ridiculous and love to pile on

But are they taking the stairs to the meeting?

SEC has killer instinct. These conferences are dead in the water.

Has there been any talk about Caleb Tremblay in fall camp? I would assume we accepted him in as a transfer because the coaches thought he could help, but I haven't heard his name mentioned.

Not that it means much, but I listened to the Kyler Kerbyson podcast and they noted he just looked small. He'll probably get reps, but I wouldn't expect a ton

This is the big wild card here. RG automatically improves your DL, but how much so? Our pass rush was so bad this year, if we could even be average at that, I'd be thrilled. You gotta think we will be with adding Byron, Garner, and playing a more attacking style on the D-Line

There isn’t a Big12 school left that would bring in more revenue than they would take from the shared conference revenue pot.

Siap I've felt the same way (haven't heard much about him), but some have suggested he may even start. Even if he doesn't, it sounds like he'll play quite a bit regardless. He must be doing well...just quietly. Nothin wrong with that!

Seeing Pruitt running through the T in that video makes me want to throw up. Remember what he said about running though it the first time? Something like “it was different”. How did we ever hire that gump?

That pisses me off. Screw Pruitt and the single-toothed hussy he rode in on.

TCU would be the only one that had a chance imo

Hope Heupel can light them up in Neyland.

Umm am I missing something...3 different sized CBs when they are basically identical in size?

They don't scare me at all. Think this is a very average Pitt team.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Hope Heupel can light them up in Neyland.

Our 6-3, 6-1, 6-0 6-2 WR should hav a ball against those guys, not to mention our TEs who will be all over the field.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Also looks like they need more speed here's where our WRs fall in the MPH category

Hyatt: 22.7
Velus: 22.3
Payton: 22.2

RB - Wright: 22.3

Rucker the true freshemen CB is our current fastest player at 22.9

I figured Texas Tech and OSU would have decent shots. They have solid teams on occasion, and TT has had very good basketball and baseball.

I remember another ACC corner named Emerson everyone was hyping up before the season, and Tyler Bray and Co. tore his ass up.
