Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Orangeredblooded]

lmao. Who's gonna pay to go out with your old ass?

I mean, besides @Orangeredblooded .

I’m not that hard up.

USA Today has UT playing UCF in the Gasparilla Bowl

That would be interesting

If UT doesn't self-ban. Some for, some against.

Mizzu ain't going 8-4

They have a good QB and it's their coach's second year...so they expect improvement...but that's all Missouri has as far as I can tell. They could go 8-4 or 4-8. I think you can lump Tennessee, Missouri, and Kentucky into a group and say it's really hard to predict they'll be good or bad. Too many variables and unknowns. I think it's pretty clear that South Carolina will be bad and Vandy will be terrible.

My oldest daughter wasn't feeling good one night. I was selected to go and calm and comfort her. She was probably 3 or 4 at the time. I picked her up and put her head on my should and was gently patting her back. That is when her stomach got tired of holding on to it's contents and she puked down my back. Inside my shirt and out. I knew my wife still had the monitor on so I called in reinforcements. It was so awful.

There was another time, same child, that she had eaten a bunch of purple grapes in the evening. We heard her crying on the monitor. When we turned on the light in her room, it looked like she had thrown up blood everywhere. It took us a minute to put together the red and the grapes.

My son had bouts of bronchiolitis when he was 2-4 years old. So sometimes he needed a nebulizer and Albuterol but before we had it at home to use, we'd have to go to an urgent care for kids. I was holding him as he was feverish and wheezing in the waiting room and he puked down my shirt. I didn't have a change of clothes so I sat and waited until his oxygen was leveled in a shirt covered in puke, steaming with the smell the whole time. Lovely times.

Lemon Bar tonight scrub. Be there.

 

[Jackcrevol]

That’s crazy! And extremely gross lol. Things you never imagined would happen in your life until kids…

ever seen diarrhea hit floor, from a high chair, with such force it bounces off the floor and back up onto area from whence it came? it's astonishing.

that's when its bathtime. forget wipes. eff it. strip clothes, burn them. pour half a bottle of baby soap in tub. engage rubber duck.

I got pandemic league soccer tonight son. If the other team doesn't show up, I'll be there.

We should 100% not self-ban at this point. NCAA has never had less power.

 

[Orange Studs]

Injuries blow every expectation out the window...a few bad injuries and we are a HS team.

Well get ready for injuries just hope its in an area where we got some depth and not serious.

I have noticed that when Golf is on NBC it seems I see less gold and a lot more commercials. Recorded and watching yesterdays BMW tourney and I am constantly fast forwarding the commercials. CBS doesn't seem to be that way. I know they both do the play through commercials and even they seem to have gotten longer but NBC seems to double the commercials that CBS does. jmo

Happens to every team eventually through the year. Just gotta hope the ones that go down for us aren't key contributors.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

We can afford no injuries at OL or LB

I mean we are just going to have to assume we will have 1 to 2 injuries that’s why it’s nice to see that Kwauze Garland is improving and is actually depth there.

Here's a link to a great story on the University of the South, located in Sewanee, and their time in the SEC.

Journey back to Sewanee, a founding SEC member that has no regrets

Watched an sec Down South episode on that the other day. Pretty interesting!

I agree. Most fans and donors agree. But some feel a more aggressive approach will lead to leniency... even though counsel said months ago that is no longer true in many cases.

CBS makes their commercial revenue up from all the commercials during SEC on CBS.

I would say firing the head coach, coaching staff, other assistants, the athletic Director, and anybody in between is an aggressive enough approach. A bowl van is peanuts compared to all of that.

We have to make a bowl first. If they do self-impose, it may not matter. A one year ban has a good chance to be imposed in a year we don’t even make it. @LA Vol is right, we get hit by COVID or have 1 or 2 injuries in the wrong position groups and things can go bad fast. I don’t want the ban, but am not convinced it will hurt us if we do self-impose.

Yes, UT has way overcompensated. Other schools have been more egregious with no remorse and little cooperation.

Is the NCAA stupid enough to believe that? Maybe they are. But we all know that firing Beldar and his band of idiots and forcing Fulmer into retirement was not some self-imposed punishment to the program. Anyone who watched the team at all last year knows this. Unless they went into a coma at halftime against UGA.

NBC as been having problems with their broadcasting of sport's events. They really batched the Olympics.

That's the rationale for considering it-- some think a bowl ban and scholarship reductions would be impact-neutral in the current climate, given our current situation. I'd rather make a different statement, but there are divided opinions that will need to coalesce soon.

Is part of the rationale to just wait and see where we are at after like 4 games?

2-2 maybe we go ahead and put a bowl ban. If we are 3-1 there is no way I impose a bowl ban. And obviously at 4-0 it would be a cold day in hell for me to impose a bowl ban.
