Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[butchna]

Well, got on thinking it would take forever to catch up. Most of it was just Newt laughing at people he disagrees with. Butchna, I am sorry that everyone took what you said and created their own fantasy world and are now angry because you assured them it would happen. I’m just going to celebrate anyone that chooses to be a Vol and imagine what these coaches can do with them. We just have to keep getting better. The better the players we get the faster it happens. But we won’t get everyone we want. Never do. And the portal offers hope for the holes that need to be filled.

Always said IF Oda! Don’t put that evil on me, Teach!

Would be huge!

wait...twss

 

[Jackcrevol]

Do you remember Julian Battle?. He signed his LOI and sent it to NCST, but it was invalid because he was under 21 and his mother hadn't signed it. She got home from work and told him she was only signing the LOI for Tennessee because he had told them he was coming. Pretty refreshing in the world of recruiting.

that was eons ago.

 

[butchna]

He never assured anything, just that some good things were possible.

IF this were to occur, we’d be a level up on the program a few years early…imo. Players see players do.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

The Alex Collins & Arkansas LOI saga was a wild ride too lol

I know you did! Saying I am sorry that other people read it as a guarantee and are sharpening their pitchforks.

I'm so old I count my age in eons.

3 are obvious, Williams, Thomas, and Webb. I’m not saying the other one but it isn’t hard to figure out.

People think silents are guaranteed, but they’re not. So many kids tell coaches they’re coming and change their minds in a matter of days.

Nyland Green had a commitment video to Ut shot and then went to ga. Jay Hardy same thing. Justin Rogers. On and on.

Those were the 3 I was able to come with fairly easily. The 4th was where I was having a hard time. My guess is the 4th is Tolan and the reluctance is because his situation looks far from "over."

 

[Pridedad]

We’ve got 4 silents. Two are committing this weekend. 2 more are taking visits. So are they really silents? You can’t rely on silents all the time

So your saying load the cannons!

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

So your saying load the cannons!

I mean, Webb and Thomas should be going public. Maybe they wait, but I think they commit this weekend

 

[jakez4ut]

I can tell you this, the portal has definitely made it hard to keep up with what threads to pay attention to lol. Seeing 3 & 4 year olds threads pop up again... It's like when Hollywood remakes a classic movie or TV show.... It's rare the reboot matches the original....


Unless they are coming to Tennessee, that is...

 

[Weezer]

Most trustworthy?

A. Monkey with a knife
B. Chinatown Omega watch for $13
C. Your ex
D. Brian Kelly

What kind of monkey?

 

[butchna]

I can’t share that pic, guys. There’s a good reason.

 

[butchna]

That does not look like you. You are a white puppy.

I clean up badly.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Jay Hardy...plays us to go to Auburn, we then take the DL coach that recruited him and he transfers from Auburn in May before the season to go ride pine at Liberty.

Be surprised if ends up doing more than getting a free education.

 

[Weezer]

Anything but D.

That's what Ellen DeGeneres said.

 

[Volfanatic_20]

Yes lol. That’s how I got my insider reputation

Hardy vid?

Easily B. Will never lie to you for about 6 months and then will many more years if you replace the battery.

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Hardy vid?

No, VQ accidentally posted Tee Hodge’s commitment video before he announced. I saw it, told them so they would take it down. But let VN know we had a commitment coming. 100% stats as an insider

Exactly

I know...that is why I refuse to believe it till I see it. It would be soul crushingly frustrating if I expected it and it doesn't happen.

It is already soul crushing to know that it is even possible...except our idiots won't do what it takes to make it happen. I am hoping at some point soon that changes before we are left in the dust by everybody else.
