Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Vols2DaWall]

Random, but since we are talking about living in/near Atlanta—how is it? I hate downtown Atlanta but wouldn’t mind moving to some nicer suburbs potentially

Is it really that bad?

I've not read the book series. But, I've enjoyed the show so far.
The show has me interested to read the series.

 

[Volbucky]

@Volbucky 3 shots in a row at the farm next to mine. I don't believe he knows how to shoot. Just scaring everything off.

It’s unbelievable the people that only come out for opening day and probably never shoot/ sight in their rifle before they go out.

I love it. I live in smyrna and I am about ten minutes from the battery. They are about to upgrade the downtown Smyrna area that already has a bar and restaurants and fun things to do with a brewery and other things.

It’s not well done. I’ll give it some time to improve, but can see myself not making it through the first season.

We live north of ATL. We like it. Moved here from northern middle TN about 6yrs ago.

 

[Lloyd_Christmas]

Don’t live there now, but grew up in Carrollton. Not a ton of West Ga Vols from my experience.

Grew up in Carrollton as well but now live near Lake Lanier.

I live in Milton on the north side. You can find about anything you are looking for in this area. There is still rural property and you are near good schools, dining, and shopping.

We're north of Atlanta. You can find some counties with decent property taxes and great schools up here. Away from Atlanta but easy enough access to get down there and back. Great job market. Only downside is that it's really growing now.

Move to the Newnan area. It is exploding around here. Only 30 to 45 minutes from the airport depending on where you live.

If you haven't finished the first book I recommend not finishing it until after the first season. They changed a lot of back story (and main story reasons) but if you didn't know anything about TWoT it will be entertaining. My wife loved the first 3 episodes and she's never read the series. I got a headache from how much it changed. I was entertained but I was wanting something like GoT first season. Near word for word adaptation

Ha. This is total BS. You start by saying there are two different feels to our identical records then don't back it up with any evidence. Uh. We feel pretty great about our 5-5 record and the way we've played thus far after the Pruitt era.

There's a thing such as "fit" in college football and expectations are on a different level. What works for Rutgers doesn't mean it'd work here. He wouldn't have lasted in my opinion much longer than Pruitt did.

I'm on book one so I'm not far into it at chapter 14

I'm half way through the first book. Think I'm going to avoid the series until I finish the books.

What is their feel? Because I feel good as **** about our record and our coach.

Maybe that will run BIG BOY your way!

Exactly! Article just goes into the fiasco of that hire again but says nothing about our current years. Lazy writing.

Greg is 5-5 after being 3-6 last year
CJH is 5-5 looking at 7-5 and a Florida bowl

I hope if they get bowl eligible we somehow get to play them if we don’t get a Florida bowl

We would run them out of the ****ing country

This is an excellent recruiting tool.

My father grew up in Bowdon. My mother went to Carrollton. They sent us kids to Central. I've got family all in that area, even some over the state line in Woodland.

As I said that's just my recommendation. You guys do you

 

[gainesvol82]

Me too...they have absolutely butchered it.

They couldn't have done a worse job if they tried. I want to repeatedly punch the show creators for their arrogance. They made me dislike every show character, added completely unnecessary BS while not including necessary plot parts and are pushing so many SJW narratives even including homosexuality.

Robert Jordan is turning over in his grave and his wife Harriet and Brandon Sanderson have got to be sickened by this blasphemy. Makes me appreciate what Peter Jackson did with LoTR even more.
