Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

@volbeast33 where the nuggets?

All they did was a walkthrough today is my understanding

Yeah seems to be easier to get the away team to wear colors vs getting the home team to wear white.

For away to wear colors: teams agree in writing prior to game and conference confirms colors are contrasting.
For home to wear white: both teams have to agree prior to the start of the season.

I wonder why it's a different process?

Dunno, but all it is, is a penalty so if the coaches tell the refs that they are not going to accept the penalty against the other team, does it even matter?

 

[Rishvol]

Anyone know why Powell's colors are orange? . .

Probably what @InVOLuntary chose when he founded the school

Ahhh thanks

 

[SweetasSoda]

Well wth man…. I already knew they were going to wear all blacks….

You knew it for the first game and did NOT tell us?

@volbeast33 where the nuggets?

Think he said his contract goes on Monday and Friday now...or something like that.

Ask @Weezer or @Orangeredblooded . They invented colors.

I had mentioned yesterday that my person can’t be there Tuesday through Thursday now…. I should have some tomm if they do much at practice…. I do have small info about Maurer…. I heard that accuracy in practice was in order Milton, Hooker, Maurer, Bailey….. Maurer was pissed that they picked HB over him….Every time HB over three a receiver…. He would say to a few he talked to…..And they picked him over me. After his social media post and talking to the coach… he was told to pack his bags( not maurer’s choice). I also heard that all of the other three QBs seem really happy and don’t think they will transfer right away when it becomes official the order of QBs.

Lol no no no, I’m saying it’s been known that we were going to wear all blacks at some point.

@tnhunter 10 made it seem like it was going to be the Bowling Green game the way he phrased it lol.

When really he was just saying we were going to wear Black Unis at some point this year

Wish the kid well but I’m glad he got the boot, don’t need someone like that around your program.

Pig was so good. That fumble against GA was heartbreaking. Kid deserved that TD

I still think it was closer than just being an automatic fumble. He had the tip of the ball cupped in his hand.

Posted this in the art thread, but this thread is my home on VolNation. Feel like I can share a proud dad moment. My eldest - 15 yr old daughter - has been working on this for a couple of days. Sent me this picture from school today.

That is incredibly awesome!!

went to a show back in 2004 at High Museum. Van Gogh, Renoir...and an entire floor of famous architects hand drawn renderings, in pencil.

The High is great. My daughter and I go there often.

Ben on Swain Event said that he's hearing Tennessee will go all black alt uniforms. I'm here for it.

Maybe it’s just me, but I’m meh on black. Those ‘09 black jerseys were the first real jersey surprise we’ve ever had. It was special because of the element of surprise. It was hype at the time, it didn’t really look good.

Now the smoky greys with the helmets meant something and matched well with the orange..and looked less Halloweeny. I’ll wait to reserve judgment, but the black and orange is the worst of the looks in my 40 years on earth.

This is smooth…



This is novelty…

Thought you were agreeing it was BG and you knew.

The video evidence was not indisputable

The Black Jersey is going to be something close to this. It looks awesome.

I agree with you totally. But if it looks like that polo that would be awesome, and recruits would love it. Basically would be the smokey gray darker like charcoal.

If he really was jawing every time HB made a mistake, that cancer needed to git.

Completely agree. Don’t like the black. At all,

Kid transferred from LSU to OU; looks like he is heading back to LSU.

Eric Gray is about to put a lot of miles on his frame this year. Good thing he falls down so easily- he’ll avoid a lot of tackles.

He's also going for 1k yards I'd bet.

Yeah he didn’t handle it well.

Gotta have three tones. That doesn’t look as good as the Smokeys. Are you saying we have another alternate we haven’t seen?

That was just thrown together…. We can do better than that with the black uniforms.

Almost, but I’ll wait to reserve judgment.
