Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Christian Lowe]

I really hope for kids like you that you get to experience what it feels like when we are going good...then maybe you will understand us old farts.

I have vague memories of my dad running around the house screaming when we beat Florida in 2001, or the 6 OT Arkansas game that had him pulling his hair out. Seeing him that invested in something made me equally invested because I wanted to be just like my dad. Hopefully that passion comes back for both of us.. he hasn’t even been to a game since 2017.

Side note, I hate that my dad has checked out like that. My favorite childhood memory is him surprising me with tickets to Tennessee @ South Carolina when clausen was there, as well as my first Tennessee jersey. And I was through the moon. My dad was never the type to just buy me something out of the blue for no reason, which today I appreciate but was annoying as an 8 year old.. anyways. May have been 2003.. we ended up sitting with their snooty season ticket holders and were heckled all game. We just laughed it off together.

geez. Tennessee is snake bitten

Thinks he could transfer at the end of the semester if he doesn’t play.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Hubbs apparently was hinting at that tonight.

No he wasn't. He was asked if HB would transfer. He said "it's possible."

He was also asked, "Is it possible that Heupel is trying to redshirt Bailey." His answer; "it's possible."

Some real inside baseball there from hubbs

Fair enough

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Didn’t say big arm….. I said we have to complete the ball down the field….. Last time against Pitt…. Gabriel completed 2 over 50 yd passes and 1 over 35….. we run a version of the veer and shoot which means we run verticals on just about every pass play…. You have to be able to complete that pass to run this offense correctly.

I know what we run, I also know you have to be able to see and connect on those middle routes.

thanks for clarifying

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I still really like Lane Kiffin. Don’t care. I like him.

I do not understand how any Vol can.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I have faith in Joe Milton….. He is my starting QB….. also Heupel’s words.

Of course he was going to say that...you know who else said that about another QB the last few years?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I really don’t think he ever “sucked”. There were some things that were concerning to me but i would give him a C+ grade overall…. Which all things considered (no spring, 1st game, totally new scheme) isn’t bad.

Uhmm...1-9...that is garbage.

no.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I want Bailey to be a great Tennessee QB but at the same time I wouldn’t gnash my teeth if he transferred.

The Portal is going to be flooded with QBs every offseason. We’ll be fine regardless.

I was at that 6 OT arkansas game. Drove 15 hours to be there, and the whole OT I was thinking how horrible the drove back would be if we lost. Will never forget Witten going down the seam.

I don't blame you for being negative, for what it's worth. You've never seen a reason to be positive about UT football your whole life. Human nature can't just override personal experience that easily, and our admin has rarely showed they have any interest in changing anything. I'm just hoping you 20 somethings at least get to see a reason for positivity in the near future.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

McGill goes deep: "Milton sucks."

Result: Incomplete attempt.

McGill, next snap: "I hate it that Milton can't hit the deep ball."

Lol..that was funny..

 

[SpringBokVol]

I do not understand how any Vol can.

It’s easy. He is fun. An offensive genius. He brings the energy. His Twitter game is strong. He recruits and bends the rules like a boss.

I would hire him back with open arms no problem.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Corral beast

Jeez kid..you're about to be sent to the void again..

LK can EABAUTD

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Hubbs hinting in the Monday Night Chat that Bailey leaving after this semester is a possibility. Basically reiterated and stated if he isn't going to play he probably isn't going to stay.

Welp...that sucks.

 

[JT3]

Why these youngins got their negative britches on

The usual huh?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Hopefully Bailey has the patience to see this through. He's evidently been beat out by 2 upper classmen. If he were getting beat out by others in the same clas or underclassmen, he probably should and would hit the portal. Patience is in short supply these days so who knows? I think he has definite potential to be the man here. Just an observation but Bailey needs to bulk up a bit. He doesn't look much different bodywise as he did when he arrived.

 

[Weezer]

I really hope Bailey sees some playing time soon so people will shut the hell up about it. If he succeeds great, and if he doesn't, maybe people will stop touting him as the next Peyton Manning. Some of you are making it seem as if we're still coached by idiots. For the love of God, I hope that's not true. Otherwise, we still have a lot of years of suck in front of us.

I mean....

The people arguing with and complaining about the HB supporters are equally part of the problem IMO JMO TIFWIW

 

[mrmax86]

Here is where people now overreact to Ole Miss beating a bad Louisville team and believe that they're unstoppable.

You got to love game 1 overreactions

Like Miss State over LSU last year?

I freakin hate that lowlife bag of puke. I will never understand it, that is just like wanting to be best friends with the dude that screws your wife.

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Bailey is replaceable
