Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[utvolmaniac]

If our staff had A&M’s roster, would they have won the west this year?

No. Our staff coaches in the east.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I called 7-5 and was promptly told my expectations were too high.

Even I said 7-5 was possible, but I sure as hell didn't expect it. I will not detract from the miraculous coaching job these guys did by saying they did what they "should" have done.

In actuality they went 9-3 in my mind, they were completely ripped off by crooked officiating against Ol Piss and Pitt.

Need to tag Walter Nolan with all this stuff.

Real good chance they do. Imagine what Heupel would have done with that OL and Run game. And Garner with that Defensive front….Jimbo is so horrible.

 

[Weezer]

There is a lot more parity in today’s game than there was like say in the 90’s.Even Geno is losing his edge lately.

Pat made women's basketball what it is today.

If you do that, remember to spell his name right. N-O-L-E-N

 

[Jackcrevol]

I hate to say it but was Pat really that special?She won at least half of her championships(if not more)when her biggest competition was Old Dominion and Louisiana Tech.I will give her due diligence in that she is the main reason women’s basketball is what it is today.

yes.

Sumlin 9
Fisher 7

Salary in that span
Fisher 30M
Sumlin 13M



But these kids keep falling for it yikes

If he hadn’t beat Bama then he’s sitting here 7-5 like us except he has twice the talent on his roster and it’s not even debatable while we have 65 scholarship kids available and a first yr coach. The difference in the level of coaching performance here between the two is massive. Shout out to Heup!

Dobbs' final season (before the bowl game): 12 games
202 of 319 (63.3%), 2655 yards, 26 TDs, 12 INTs
139 rushes, 713 yards, 9 TDs

Hooker's season (before the bowl game): 11 games
180 of 261 (69%), 2567 yards, 26 TDs, 3 INTs
147 rushes, 560 yards, 5 TDs

As a fan, I definitely hope we get another year from Hooker. Like Small said "imagine what you can do in year 2"

 

[Jackcrevol]

Hooker and Tillman coming back.

how did you draw that conclusion?

The woman made teams that were phenomenal when no one else did! Don’t take away her greatness just because no one else was great.

Guess you better do it then. Thanks.

Did I not say that? I’m sure I did.

One of two things: either your blue font isn't working; or, you woke up and said, "Today...I'm going to make one of the five dumbest comments on the face of the planet."

I said 5-8. 5 if there were a lot of injuries and no QB developed. 8 if we managed to stay healthy and everything went our way. We didn’t stay healthy and everything didn’t go our way, but we really got 8. Phenomenal job by this staff. Anyone moaning are toddlers pitching a fit because they didn’t get what they wanted, and they have no ability to analyze a situation.

That Bama win completely kept their season from falling apart. There were rumblings that a lot of their draft pick players were going to shut it down if they lost that game, and they had a ton of recruits on their OV’s that night. Definitely changed perception for them for a while, but you have to wonder if recruits that aren’t already paid for will re-evaluate where that program is in year 4 after last night. If a bunch of their players check out and they go to the Alamo Bowl, there’s a good chance we both end up 8-5.

if you gave researching her due diligence then you wouldn’t have asked this question.

I would've said dumbest, but I'm sure a few democrats are speaking somewhere.

No but I have been seeing some posts on here about Kelly Harper in a negative manner.It seems like some don’t want to give her a chance when she is coaching at a time when there is so much more competition.Her team is undefeated so far.That’s about all I have to say.I wasn’t one of the ones on here dogging Kelly just a few weeks ago.

 

[I4Jay]

After what I was just told, I take my initial response back.
He’s been 100% healthy for the last couple weeks and chose to sit out the rivalry game vs USF.
DO.NOT.WANT

Additionally,
Was a very negative person in the locker room as the year went on, treated the back up QBs like ****. Wasnt willing to help them with their learning curve.
Everything I’m hearing now, he is the exact opposite of what McKenzie Milton was for him and the other guys. Yuck
Bad leader, worse character .
he isn’t and won’t be welcome here by this staff.

We’ve gotta get him to come back. As good as he was this year he’s still flying way under the radar. Another season at UT cements his legend here and likely makes him a lot of money in the draft.

I’ll take “Places to pull out absurd comments” for $500, Alex.

 

[Buddy’s Bandit]

Looking at it, yeah he ****ed our prediction up, but he did the same with MSST and Arkansas, and the other way with LSU, A&M, and Florida. But he nailed Kentucky, Mizzou, Auburn, and Vandy, so basically he put a lot of stock into a COVID year and was as lazy as most CFB pundits tend to be. I mean, it's still **** him, but he's just one of many who should be laughed at. I'd love to see what Dennis Dodd predicted as he's another lazy dumbass.

I’ll go ahead and predict andy at the bottom of the east for(ever) a long time. I am brilliant.

Neither was I; however, what people were/are saying about Kellie Harper, and you saying Pat Summitt wasn't special, are two totally different things.

Also, Summitt won 5 of her 8 National Championships from 1996 to 2008...what are you even talking about Old Dominion and La Tech?
