Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

The fact we are <10 plays away from looking at 9-3 lololol

The fact that we actually are 9-3 because the officials blatantly stole two wins..

I know you're not saying Hendon does not deserve some credit because he clearly does too. He bought in , put in the work, takes good coaching, and has become a leader. A big win for everyone.

No...I am not saying that. Read the post I responded to for context.

Beth Mowins “Tennessee needs another 52 plays to tie Kentucky” probably. I was so tired of the hearing TOP or the number of plays difference in that game.

It’s great to have a QB that can actually hit a receiver in stride. Really need him to back to help with this rebuild.

Need to get this running back room more depth or at least one that can stay healthy.

Defense just need some dudes and be a little more aggressive on 3rd downs. Our efficiency on 3rd is ridiculously terrible.

 

[Dudley Smith]

Not sure what has been going on with Tiyon Evans and Jabari Small, but we are going to need more RB’s because they just can’t stay on the field. This offense needs to be able to punish defenses with runs between the tackles when they drop back to defend the pass.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Honestly after watching his presser, I like him. He didn't make excuses. He broke down the issues well. He has made Kentucky football relevant.

I will say though, with a school like that you need a coach like ours that can scheme you wins. Future is bright. I hope Hype can keep his staff together. If so Tennessee football is going to be so much fun to watch.

I hope they are stupid enough to turn on Stoops...we will go from winning by three points to winning by three TDs like we did before.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I don't think this is very funny

I don't either

Agree with you that they would be dumb to turn on Stoops. But we have and will beat them by 3 TDs even with Stoops there.

Also the defense is allowed to get stops. We want to blame the offense for scoring too quick. But you get a few 3 and outs in the 1st half and we blow Kentuckys doors off.

Banks has to be more aggressive. I blame it more on his play calling last night than the players on defense. Our safeties are still slaw.

I think the 3rd drive fumble is what allowed Kentucky to stay in the game. I have no doubt in my mind that we were about to score there. An early 21-7 lead puts enough stress on the Kentucky offense to lead to them committing even more mistakes.

There were some play calls that had me scratching my head (aka screaming at the TV), but for the most part last night’s issues were players not wrapping up on their tackles and sometimes not being aggressive getting to the ball.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I just watched that again… I’ve never heard an analyst so torn up over a couple yards

It was weird..he sounded like a due hard UK fan on that play..

No offense, but she is kind of a dog.

[Ulysees E. McGill]

That was my experience when I went in 2015. In the stands folks were nice and playful then disappointed when the Vols pulled away. Pregame and postgame in the parking lot the clearly well-off folks were drunk and hostile.

I've been to LSU games as an opposing fan and have been welcomed to tailgates by strangers to enjoy food and talk smack. Not Kentucky, those folks were absolute dicks.

They have forty years of frustration backed up in them...and then they finally win one at Neyland and get pumped up by every media hack out there in pre-season, only to have us come in and destroy their hopes for a truly great season.

They are idiots, but I understand it to a degree...we are the mountain that they just can not conquer.

 

[BigSteve09]

Really? Where can I see this? Lol

about the 31:00 mark

They all picked us to win on their bets preview btw which is the "lock infinity"/song thing

 

[drvenner]

Kirk Morrison is still confused.

LOL, yes he is. That was such an incredibly awkward sequence. You could see Mowins trying to salvage something, but he just kept burying himself, LOL.

 

[Volator]

Beasley missed many tackles. He arms tackles too much and C. Rod ran through them. Banks continues to improve and 2 more portal lb's are needed.

 

[Volator]

. double post

 

[ugg]

I just watched the Coach Heupel show. We had five scoring drives of less than 45 seconds. He actually seemed a little embarrassed by that lol.

 

[VolNash17]

We have some fans that seem to think we’ll whoop Georgia… I just hope Hooker doesn’t go down for the season. 49-17 fighting Smarts…. Their team is simply way way way too talented for us to compete past maybe halftime

 

[LoudOrange]

In the immortal words of Coach Denny Green, "they are who we thought they were."

 

[VOLSONLY]

I fill so freaking good this morning. Braves win the WS. VOLS take down the pussy cats. Im handing out likes, like Oprah handing out cars.. And such a beautiful morning.

For all you peeps still being negative about the game. STFU and enjoy that win. VOL football is so fun to watch again.

Wheres the deer?

 

[drvenner]

No...I am not saying that. Read the post I responded to for context.

That is why I said I know you are not saying that. I just worded it very poorly. I was agreeing that Heup has done a fantastic job with Hooker and that Hooker deserves credit too for the reasons that I listed.

I was worried that fumble would be the momentum shift that kept us from ultimately winning this one. Especially when UK marched down and tied it. Can't say enough about the fight in this team. They came up big when they needed to and that is a good solid foundation to build on.

I'll be honest, she about drove me to a mental breakdown at some point during the broadcast.

My old lady came in and found me staring at the screen in a daze, drooling everywhere. Everyone just sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher at that point.

Really though, those two announcers really did start sounding like a couple of Charlie Brown's teachers talking to each other. Then the dude has the panic attack in the last minute of the game,

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He/she is an attention ho.. sad

IIRC this guy is one of @Geaux_Vols acquaintances. He said the guy has a beef and is just trying to stir up trouble.
