Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[jave36]

Man I hate that targeting call. RB lowered his head to make it head to head, ejection is way too harsh.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Nonsense

 

[Orangeredblooded]

Woof

 

[volbeast33]

Seriously we’re going to be just fine on offense. Might have growing pains this year, but Heup’s offenses have been better than Kiffins when they had similar talent. People really need to r e l a x

Yeah I know….. I was just messing around

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

These targeting rules are so damn lame.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Some genius stuff here from Satterfield. If hes an offensive guy like they say he better show it and quick.

 

[VolInDayton]

Where are all the fans? Ive been to several of the UT games to kick off the seaon in ATL and they were always sell outs

always hate to see it happen to senior players too.

 

[jave36]

That's text book targeting.

They need to rewrite the rule to allow for runners who lower their head into the tacklers helmet. Should still be a penalty, but not an ejection. Terrible rule.

 

[volbeast33]

I will trade both Milton and Hooker for Corrall! And I know Kiff likes hookers.

Yes he does

 

[Glitch]

Maybe I'll start hitting the dorm, creeping on players for info. I could be bigger than that Bowser kid.

Most people are bigger than him. He's a crackhead.

 

[csprig9]

Only do ejection if the player leaves his feet or something like that
The RBs lower their head , what’s the difference

 

[drvenner]

Some kid taped over the recording with armpit fart noises.

Probably @Jaws.

Worst rule in college football.

 

[Weezer]

Is being a crackhead the key to being an insider??


Suddenly Bass as an insider makes a lot of sense.....

 

[Smokeytom]

Yeah I know….. I was just messing around

I know i’m in complete agreement with you

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I couldn't throw that flag in good conscience when both players are lowering their heads. Launching is a different story.

 

[Weezer]

Cooper Manning is kind of funny.

 

[jave36]

Tackler should have kept his head up. No question. But ejecting him for such a minor error? There was no intent to target he aimed for the guys gut and the guy dropped to meet him. Just insane.

 

[RiotVol]

Targeting is out of control

Mark Richt has lost control of targeting.

 

[KB5252]

They need to rewrite the rule to allow for runners who lower their head into the tacklers helmet. Should still be a penalty, but not an ejection. Terrible rule.

I've long argued that if the defense is called for lowering the head and using the helmet as a battering ram the offense should as well.

 

[Orangeredblooded]

That is not targeting damnit. If it is, the rule needs to change.

The rule does need to change. The way the rule is worded, you’ve got umps and announcers dissecting ever movement of the defender leading up to the hit. Some is targeting and some are just a defender going in with momentum off the tackle.

 

[Volitaire]

It is fine to question the source. I'm sure you're not the only one questioning the information. But, you have to know the poster a little bit, at least. If you have been here longer than one day, you should know that Bass is about as far from a troll as you can be. This is the second day in a row that you've chosen to die on a very weird hill.

Why is it bad to question it though… the guys who went to Oklahoma were in the transfer portal to be recruited…whereas HB never was in the portal and if what Basd is insinuating is true how the hell are we not turning Florida in for that. That’s all im saying but carry on no harm no foul

 

[KB5252]

I don't think our offense is as good passing the ball, I think we look to be a better team in the run game though.

 

[Ten_Titans]

Unfortunately it was the correct call…but agreed. They need to fix that, or get rid of the ejection part. No need for that kid to miss the game

I can agree with that MAYBE.

But what they are asking these kids to do is straight un-anatomical. The biggest pads they wear are on their shoulders.

When a ref can show me how to hit someone shoulders first (safest) without also dropping your head (least safe) then I'll agree with the rule. But it isn't possible.

Obviously in a perfect world your head goes to one side and doesn't make contact. But they are never going to be able to change the game where everyone makes that tackle like a blast double leg in wrestling, except where both guys are running full speed. It's completely unnatural.
