Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Nashvegas31]

Wild that Sark is catching so much heat in year 1 already. He wasn’t able to bring much of anything in last class based on when hired. Defense was left in horrific shape and that is clearly the problem. Offensively signs are there if their potential… and folks say we are unreasonable

Lane at South Beach would be amazing for College football. I find the Shapiro rumor less likely when he said Randy Shannon as DC for the combo. I could see Randy being part of staff but the actual DC doesn’t seem like a Lane move. Also agree with the admin and resources just not very good at Miami right now.

Maybe. South Beach is also 35 minutes away from Miami's campus. Worse facilities than Ole Miss. Stadium may as well be on the moon.

Lane Kiffin in The Grove is better for Lane Kiffin.

He inherited Tom Herman's 7-3 squad, I think most folk expected him to just pick right up and win. Also losing to Kansas was a bad loss.

 

[BigSteve09]

True, but almost have to assume Lane’s got the ego to think he can get it back to the early 2000s Miami.

He would be working overtime to undo bad leadership for 15 years, mend broken relationships down there to fix their recruiting, appease an admin that doesn't understand football or appreciate "The U."

Too many cooks in the kitchen down there, and none of them are cooks.

Feed the man.

Is AP referring to Tayven Jackson as being most important commit as an overall player in the class, or the most important commit to sign early because Ole Miss is after him?

I was wondering the same thing. Unbelievable some people like Lane

When you lose to the Vanderbilt of their conference…. Fans will never be accepting of that.

The former.

 

[drvenner]

Kiffshit. People talk like 09 was some magical year. We werent very good.

I do think Kiffin would have had us playing well. VPI manhandled us.

He lost to UCLA and Auburn also that year. Very winnable games that he choked away.

 

[johnfnkelly]

Arky fans have suddenly become the second most insufferable fanbase in the conference behind UGA. I hope Bama blasts them this weekend.

Yes.

16 team conference. No pods. No divisions. Each team has 3 permanent rivals.
That leaves 12 teams to schedule. Play 6 of these teams in even years. The other
6 in odd years. Any player who stays 4 years will have played each other team at
least twice and will have played in every stadium at least once. Top two teams
play in championship game. Problem solved. SIMPLE
This would require a 9 game conference schedule.

Because your idea was so simple and old fit on a cocktail napkin it will never be considered.

Former Vandy RB, what scum hope he never sees freedom again, coward

 

[SergeantVol]

@SergeantVol what say you?

Outside of the recruiting forum, the rest is insanity. The FF is reactionary at best. Politics is LG and other trolling the rest. The Zone isn’t what it used to be. And the BB argues about what positions the player are “supposed” to play.

Catch that lowlife and let his fellow prisoners know what he did.

 

[drvenner]

I have a better chance of eating some scrabble tiles and crapping out Shakespeare than of someone committing to the Vols

Methinks he doth protest too much.

Just hang him in the middle of town and be done with it. People like that don’t deserve to be here with the rest of us.

 

[SmokinBob]

If I’m not mistaken, he came to the Vols out of high school - didn’t play a lot during his first couple of years, chose to stay through the chaos, AND be positive and put the work in to earn this.

 

[Rishvol]

Welp, the recruiting forum is about to get cleaned up a little me thinks.

What about the regular sized you?

 

[Adam2014]

He has not woken up yet.

Just don't call it year 0

 

[drvenner]

Haslam did.

Did he? I don't recall. That is interesting.

 

[drvenner]

Fulmer should have been fired after the 05 season.

yeah, because the previous 14 years were so bad. It was a definite pattern.

If Strong beats Kansas that last season, he stays at least one season. Was THE deal killer. In retrospect, that happens and Herman to LSU is fait accompli and landscapes altered in the multiverse.
