Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[VolGee4]

I know the basketball team didn’t play well, but it’s sad when I watched the first 8 game minutes and then turned it off. I know it’s a rhetorical question, but what has happened to college officiating? It’s obscene how poor it is, and I believe those were 3 veteran basketball officials.

It’s making me not watch, which isn’t fair to the players.

They need to overhaul the refs. They need to make them full-time employees.

You don't judge a coach or a team in one game. A lot of new guys trying to gel but the turnovers are pissing me off. No reason to not take care of the ball. The refs suck and one charge, their guy was in the arc. Regardless, Chandler getting the two fouls early killed us because we still do not have a real PG outside of him. Sergio Valente is a good shooting guard but should never be at the point. This was the worse half that I can remember this team ever having. Playing for the last shot and then giving up a layup not on a turnover but after a missed shot is horrible. Not sure what I would do as a coach in that locker room. Go too nuts and lose the young guys because it looks like a panic type reaction. Sounds like some of these posts about being out on Barnes. Just like every good coach we have had. Let's get rid of them so we can go back to being a crap show. Fulmer would not be here today if we had kept him in 2007 but the last 15 years would not have been as bad as they have been.

I laughed at Sergio Valente.

The ideal situation would be that UF keeps Mullen, Drink stays at Mizzou, Beamer stays at USCe, and Stoops stays at UK for the foreseeable future. Add in Candy and there you have 5 wins because the UF jinx ends next season.

Eat them (including hearts). I also save feathers for friends who tie flies. Getting this one mounted though. I dabble (pun) in duck taxidermy myself but want to send this off for perfection.

That's cool. I figured you'd eat them and was just wondering what else, the fly idea is good. Hope the duck looks good whenever its done.

Man… Eric Gray blew up for 23 yards today

Me thinks he’d be top 3 RB on SEC if he could have stayed here.

 

[Vols4us]

Thanks man, I appreciate you. I’ll get there!

Welcome back.

Isaac Taylor-Stuart getting burnt on the TD.

That's a name from the past.

Roswell is good too. They keep growing as well. Good areas around atlanta but I wouldn’t recommend downtown ever.

I meant downtown Roswell - fixed my op

Good grief these refs are so so so awful. My goodness. If I was Pittman on that snap at the goal line where they marked it short while he was clearly in I would’ve assaulted one of them. It was that bad. Body all in the endzone and mark it at the one… What in the flying $hit!!! Made me so upset

 

[SmokinBob]

Normally lined them up, but he needs a 2:1 duck goose ratio

We cleaned, cooked, and ate ours...

We think they cheat only against us, but its against other programs as well. They protect whoever their narrative programs are for the season year after year, decade after decade.

Agree but never thought it was just us , though. If I did, I would blame my fan bias.

With the money & attention involved, protection of top teams is spreading across the league. But we were definitely the trendsetters.

Yay us .. I guess

They've tainted my memory of "To Kill a Mockingbird". . .

Was that not targeting on the Bama DB?

I was thinking the same thing - but no way that gets called if you are wearing a crimson jersey.

The reviews, the intentional grounding, looking away at targeting, it crazy to me this doesn’t piss more people off.

They called 5 offensive fouls on us in the first 5 minutes of the game. Game was over at that point.

Deer tamales covered with deer chili, jalapenos, and muenster cheese. . . GO VOLS!

 

[TrippieRedd]

Welcome back.

Thanks buddy!

 

[TrippieRedd]

Glad to see you back Trippie. Time will heal. Don't leave your Vols Bros we were concerned for you.

Much love homie!

SIAP….

They would just suck full time instead of part time.

Florida might not score more in 4 quarters against Mizzou than UT did in 1.

I hope Georgia whips their arse in the championship game.I have no love for Georgia but I would like to see Cincinnati have their fair shot in the playoffs.They are up big on SMU fight now.I would hate to see Florida fire Dan Mullen and hire Luke Fickel.
