Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Weezer]

What really sucks is there's a good chance we won't see any dividends in recruiting until next year. Just doesn't feel like guys in this current class of recruits are paying attention or being swayed. I know we can mine the portal for help, but it's not quite the same. I hope next year's recruiting goes better. It NEEDS to go better.

Us old guys and our fish stories.
OK I come clean...I was on a a 5' mound, stubbed my foot on a beer bottle and fell and soiled my britches. lol.

My story was true…my funniest stories are true and typically reveal my idiotic tendencies

You sat on an Anti-Virus Knob?

Trying to avoid Covid.

My toe is turning a nice shade of purple. Wondering if I should go to the doctor and get it x-rayed?

Just even 15-20 years ago, I would dirt bike around I think, Prentice Cooper, and you get way back there, you find some dilapidated house and think ummmm, I better get outta here fast.
IIRC, older Chattanoogans would remember some ATV'ers were shot and one killed 35 years ago if I remember correctly. It was "Deliverance" area back then, probably not as bad now.

remember it well as I also rode dirt bikes in the area a lot back then as well.

So do you think the guy that was convicted really did it?

This past Saturday the Uber app was down, so Lyft was overwhelmed. I was too drunk to scooter, so I had walked 6 miles before a Lyft connected with me. Only had 2.5 miles left to get home My calves are still super sore

Shoulda taken a nap in a hedge along the way…does wonders.

 

[BigSteve09]

I remember when Nashville cabs used to turn the meter off after a certain hour and name their price, cash only. So many ridiculous fees to get home safely.

I was so happy when Uber and Lyft showed up to put them out of business. Now those apps are cranking the rate because they know they can.

Even still I wouldn't drive drunk. too easy not to now

I’m a big fan. Kyler could have a real future doing it. He’s got good cadence and talks the game well. I think Reed needs to take it a little more serious sometimes for him. One episode he ate during half of it, but Kyler could make a living doing this. I’ve really enjoyed him breaking it down.

I do enjoy Reed’s passion as a fan though. It’s refreshing to hear guys talk/cover the Vols as fans.

Big toe , the answer is yes.

Other toes, no

Big toe provides a significant amount of support to your foot with walking. Want to make sure that if there’s a fracture that it’s not displaced…

Literally cost me $36 to get 2.5 miles. Was around 60 when I left the bar

So do you think the guy that was convicted really did it?

Not necessarily. I think there was other "things" going on out there, but maybe the owners of the property were complicit in the other "things", but not the actual murderers.
But to the murder of DDS Elliot, another subject, being home grown on the Ridge, many have valid opinions that are best left unsaid on this forum

The NCAA investigation plus the start of NIL plus the first year staff is slowing recruiting big time. Dooley and Butch were able to recruit well early on. There's no reason Heupel wouldn't be able to as well if all was equal.

 

[Smokey X]

So do you think the guy that was convicted really did it?

Yes...Myself and some riding buddies are lucky we weren't on the receiving end of his tactics. We encountered him once when we were riding near the same area the 3 guys were that were killed.
A different time we were riding on the opposite side of Prentice Cooper in the Mullins Cove area and inadvertantly rode right into a camp site of poachers.
Both of those events taught me to ride extremely fast in the woods.

So do you think the guy that was convicted really did it?

Yes. The Wikipedia article doesn't portray the case well.

Would be better if Reed didn’t talk so much and go off on so many tangents. Interrupts Kyler constantly. Kyler will be trying to make a point and Reed will just blurt in and go off on something random and they don’t make it back to the original point Kyler was trying to make.

Can be a hard listen at times but I check it out occasionally when I am doing home projects and need background noise.

Sounds about right.

I'm so jealous of college kids these days. Gotta be the easiest way to make money. Every day is Friday night pizza delivery 3x over. No clocking in or out, no manager. "No one else is doing anything, guess I'll go make $40 for a couple of hours."

Yeah, it's my big toe. Gonna have to call my PCP tomorrow and try to get in. Don't look forward to it. I spend enough time seeing doctors already.

No offense.

We used to have them drive through White Castle and buy them food to keep them happy.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

If you drive impaired (alcohol, drugs, cell phone, eating, lap dog) you are an idiot.

 

[Wadetime]

That rock looks like a beaver face lol.

Glad it's not a butter face

 

[BigSteve09]

Speaking of those scooters, I have seen so many people eat face on those. Once that wobble starts, it's over.

 

[Orangeburst]

Sounds like you got lucky! That freakin place...

Visited there only once in my life visiting friends of family. Absolutely beautiful house right on the cliff...the view went for miles...beautiful.

Then I went outside...went ATV'ing and someone in our group ran right into a hornet's nest and 2 people got savagely stung all over...before that we visited some ancient children's "bible camp" way up in the woods, the whole thing was creepy af...then some Bubba came up on us saying it was his family's land and my stepdad said he had a pistol on him...we bounced, the next day a wildcat was roaming around our host's house...the day after that we saw snakes every 20 feet....naw I'm good I love nature, but not that shiz.

Can I use your post for an infomercial to keep you libs from moving here?
