Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[MoCo_Vol]

Really impressed with the improvement Small has made. Went from being way behind Evans to looking like a great complementary back

Just a sophomore too, we’re seeing some big time growth from our young guys.

Development!

I wondered last night if Heupel has went for it more on 4th down this season than Pruitt or Jones did in their entire tenures?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Uh oh, how is this gonna go?

So I heard that bowl cut said in an interview that he talked to Peyton before the game and he said Peyton asked him to recruit his son….. I didn’t hear that interview - did any of you hear it?

Marshall is 10…I think it’s more a thing said jokingly. Not sure we should be hand wringing over this.

 

[TheRain]

I really like this! Thanks for sharing!

You're Welcome.

Tillman has a legit chance to be our first 1000 yard receiver since who? Hunter?

Correct. Malone came like 30 yards shy and he only had about 50 catches on the season. He averaged like 20 YPC

Can you imagine if you were Dave Aranda and not kicking that field goal cost you a league title?

“I’m sorry guys. I know not kicking that field goal at the end of the Oklahoma game cost us the Big 12, but we also have to consider Lincoln Riley’s feelings.”

If Riley could have hung 70 on Baylor he would in a heartbeat. Riley might think he is Sabans version of the Big 12 but once he gets to the SEC then it will be like who are you. Tx and OK are about to be really disappointed.

Power Ts repping at the HEB in Leon springs Texas this morning.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Tillman needs 275 to hit 1k.

My thoughts exactly!

Can’t wait for tonight

Curious... Is this the way GA has made other teams look? They are loaded with the best 5 and high 4 star players money can buy. Everyone knew before the season started where we were on defense so why are people acting shocked? I was afraid every team we played would make our defense look that way. Been pleasantly surprised at what the coaches have gotten out of them.

Yeah.. UGA is one of, what I thought before the season, 2-3 teams that could really expose our lack of depth and speed on defense. I think looking back 10 games in our depth issues have shown up a lot....

This is the first team, though, we've played that nullified, completely, the only equalizer we have... Our offense's ability to get big plays and keep pressure on opposing offenses to keep pace.

If we win out, you look at the wins and feel good. You look at woulda/coulda games against Pitt and ole Miss. You competed with Bama. You shot yourselves in the foot against Florida. And the only game you truly were completely out matched was Georgia.

Plenty to build on.

Let's see if we do over the next couple/three seasons. Good year 1 so far in my book. If nothing else he's completely changed the perception of Tennessee from a competitive standpoint...

 

[jakez4ut]

Uh oh, how is this gonna go?

Fine?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Fine?

I know nothing is actually gonna happen, just if im remembering correctly this is the first time hes been at an athletic event since his firing.

 

[chargervol]

Yes, I was trying to make that point last night, but I get the vibe and even some said playoffs by year 5 which honestly isn't reasonable atm

I just assumed alcohol/frustration were in the mix and didn't follow closely enough, apparently. Because it seemed like you were all over.
One post appeared to imply McGill's point of patience, which I agree. But your next post would insinuate it's all about talent, top 5 class a must and Huepel "can't sniff" top 10 classes.

Seemed like you were jumping between gonna take time.. and .. doesn't matter, he won't recruit well enough to beat anyone that matters.
If I missed a bigger picture, then I apologize. But with your posts this morning, I'm still not sure.

 

[TennSam]

Fireable offense.
Terminate with extreme prejudice.

Kesling needs to retire.He is pathetic.But who would they replace him with?Maybe John Wilkerson?For sure not Will West?Mike Keith would be a major upgrade but I don’t see him leaving the Titans.

My buddy saw him signing autographs for kids at the South Carolina game.

 

[Batman1948]

For those who are mad about the game today…we could be Texas? They have a lot more depth, a more talented roster, play in an easier conference, the National media is begging on its knees for them to “be back”, located in a talent-rich state……and yet currently they are losing to 1-8 Kansas .

They also may be losing the locker room

 

[Smokey123]

ON has improved a lot

 

[Chuckie]

His 10 year old son?

I guess, if that’s his only son…

I don't think anyone expected that he'd never go to any games again.....

 

[Batman1948]

We should clear a spot open for Coach O as a defensive assistant/ assistant HC. Pay him really well and we’d get some defensive recruits with him and Gardner I’d have no doubt about that

We would probably be on probation pretty quickly too

He been to a few football game

Has a son & daughter, both aren’t even teens yet.

 

[butchna]

I think Texas should nuke their roster...sounds like they have a ton of guys like we have had over the last 15...talented but selfish dudes that have no pride and don't care if they lose...the kind that are yukkin it up after losing to Vandy.

Or hire a coach who can work with what’s workable. Like that UCF guy we picked up.
