Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

This would be amazing!! How could people NOT want this?

Because you're just giving the best teams an even bigger advantage with a bye. Other than that, sure. But imo that's why you need to go to 8 or 16. The best teams already have a natural advantage of getting to play the worst 4 teams in said format. They don't need a gimme. That's just begging for less parity.

 

[Weezer]

You got one in mind that we can get?

You wait and work the portal.

Hooker was there for Pruitt/Chaney. Has he said he likes Coach Hype? I need him to stay next year. I really think if we win some games, he could definitely be up for Heisman.

I’m pretty sure he loves the fact he’s putting up better numbers than he ever came close to before

 

[BubbaWms]

Some will be shocked after NSD is done !
Coach has got this, don’t sweat the small stuff !
Wish HB all the best but don’t understand the timing !

 

[TrippieRedd]

You wait and work the portal.

Okay and that’s when I told @cHiZzLeVOL if you can’t get one, you go and try to get Luther.

Sooooo what’s the issue with what I said originally?

gotta do something sooner than later. Don’t wanna go into spring with two guys and hope we get someone to transfer here to backup Hooker.

If he DIDN’T? He does now! Best coaching he’s ever received.

Hooker stays if the NIL $ are good IMO. He could use another year of seasoning to get into the first/second round discussion.

Milton needs flushed.

HB - yeah, I can see why some say he should have waited, that he's a quitter. None of us know the real world of his next gig either. Really don't care one way or the other. He was relegated to 3rd on the depth chart just like Mauer was 4th. Heup didn't ask us. Heup has been good with Hooker and bad with taking and wasting first team reps with Milton. Facts. Time to move on from HB and I wish him well.

Call the QB recommendations Bass made. All of them would be a better option than Milton. Allar's a stud.

Freaking people with money made them a status symbol..money ruins everything.

The government ruined it. Go look up the price of trucks before the IRS allowed you to write of the depreciation on vehicles over a certain weight. Now everyone has some BS LLC so they can take advantage of the the tax break. If you have a side hustle LLC, you can depreciate the entire purchase price and then you reduce your taxes to get a huge refund. More buyers, higher prices.

Is Luther worth the scholarship? Has the staff even offered him? We can throw out all kind of random names as "someone they should get" but Heupel will make the decision of who to pursue.

0% but pulling Allar would be a dream.

Since we're on this car thing, my daughter gave me a voucher to drive a supercar down at various tracks around the country as a Christmas gift last year. Covid, and other issues has delayed me doing it. I think next spring is when I'll schedule it. Which car should I choose?

GT-R is a Nissan Skyline (GT-R). I could never in a million years pass that up. Childhood favorite, along with Datsuns and Lotus Elises.

But it would admittedly be tough to pass on a Shelby and any lambo or mclaren too. Tough to go too wrong, though I could probably say no to the vette, hellcat, 911, and all mercedes.

I wonder what the tracks are in Atl, Upstate, and Charlotte. I'd imagine the Upstate (Greenville?) one is a part of the BMW plant area...I believe I've seen a track over there before. We once stayed by the Atlanta Porsche Experience Center, that's a decent track and might be the Atl one. Charlotte...an oval Nascar track? Idk though I'd hope it's more of a handling track.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Calling my shot…Holiday returns to playing QB.

 

[Weezer]

Right now, I think it would be foolish for Hooker to leave. I don't care where he's currently ranked by whoever, I don't think he gets drafted. I think he needs to do more to get real NFL attention. JMO.

Your shot is going to fall miserably short

Last time I bought a new truck was 2004, only bought a new car since. The truck now has 120,000 miles. Cost me $18,900
Looked at trucks again a few months ago and damn near coughed up a lung.

Bought a 2018 Tahoe Z71 for almost $60k.
Already at 100k miles. Hope it lasts for a long time…and/or prices normalize.

 

[volfaninpa]

Georgia, Alabama, aTm come to mind.

A&M lost Murray to OU
Kellen Mond wasn't a 5 star, at least I don't think, and he was servicable.

UGA lost Eason to Washington
They replaced him with Fromm and that worked out well.

Bama lost ???
Hurts wasn't a 5 star and besides Tua was good when healthy.

350 small block? in any iteration, Vortec or no is stalwart

 

[VOLSONLY]

There was soooo many signs

 

[BubbaWms]

Take it to em Ladies !

 

[JCVol00]

No way Allar even bats an eye here

Taulia transferred out to Maryland.

If this staff stays together and kills recruiting we could have something special here fellas.

I can’t remember the last time I’ve been this optimistic with what will probably be a 7-5 season. Even at 6-6 the signs are clear we are on the upswing. The best part is people see the losses on paper and write us off again. We are coming and this train is slowly ramping up to full steam ahead.

 

[VOLSONLY]

I need a new truck because mine got struck by lightning 2 months ago. Insurance gave me 3k more than I paid for it 3 years ago. Problem is that now I can’t find anything that isn’t crazy. Lucky for me that my dad has a 2005 f-250 that he doesn’t use anymore so I am driving that until I can find something that isn’t 10k over MSRP.

If they ever get this chip shortage deal sorted out the bottom is going to fall out of used car prices. Dealer told me he thought after January things should get better?

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Well, Bass already ordered all those

Lol. Ordered one as soon as I saw it

 

[VOLSONLY]

"you might be a redneck..."
