Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[JacketVol]

My son got sent home early last week from “exposure”, has zero symptoms so we had him tested to he wouldn’t miss his first high school FB game. Backfire! He popped hot and his qt started over and he will now miss his first 2 games! Again, ZERO symptoms and this will be his second week out of school. Initial “exposure” was 8/28. Such BS!

That’s why my son never wanted to get tested after exposure last year on the 7 day thing because it could make it longer just to really save 2 days for basketball and baseball.

I'm not sure who, but I'd say a lot of guys are waiting to see us in a few more games.

Yeah I think if we go 3-0 heading to FLA and either be competitive or knock them off, more will be ready to hop on board.

 

[Weezer]

I’m just an RF lurker, but would anyone mind predicting the next commit? seems like a longer dry spell. Wonder if we are saving several incoming spots for the portal.

Rumor has it the staff is waiting until after we beat Florida to take anymore recruits....

Just saw that Jalen Reeves-Maybin was voted the special teams captain of the Lions. I always thought he was one of the more under appreciated players in recent Vol history.

Agree. Also a name Verne Lundquist could never get correct.

We beat Florida we get all the recruits

Finally made time to watch this.



Lord, please let Heupel be the guy that at least brings us back to respectability, stability, and sustained success. Amen.

CJH sounds a lot more country at practice haha.. also - is he dipping at practice? I really hope it works out with him too. Other than him being an okie, he’s awesome

100% believe that crowd noise will affect this game. That's if we get enough people there. Don't care if it's "just Pitt". This game is very important. I was listening to the Eric Ainge show today and Brian was talking about how none of the players on this Pitt team has won a game with >65k people in the stands. Last time they did was against Clemson in either 2015 or 16. Crazy.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Sounds like someone has a gerbil stuck again....

You'd be the man for the job.

siap, but I’ve always liked this dudes breakdowns. good thread on the subtle nuances of the run game that make it so difficult to diagnose / react to at the pace it’s executed.

Thanks for posting. What a block by Fant.

These are so good.

He does a great job of detailing the misses that Milton had. All in all not that bad.

49ers WR Jalen Hurd Heading To IR? September 8th, 2021 at 8:28pm CST by Ben Levine It sounds like Jalen Hurd will miss the 49ers’ season opener. Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that the third-year wide receiver is a candidate for the injured reserve thanks to a lingering knee injury. “We felt pretty good (coming) out of the Raiders game just with how he was able to play and get through it,” Shanahan said (via Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle). “But it was hurting him three days later when we tried to practice again. And we gave him the weekend off and it hurt again Monday. And just coming in here today and just realizing that we have to reevaluate this and shut him down for a little bit.” The 2019 third-round pick still hasn’t seen the field for a regular season game thanks to injuries. That included an ACL tear that ruined his 2020 campaign, and knee tendinitis limited him during the early parts of the 2021 preseason. He finally got into the 49ers preseason finale, playing 29 snaps. If Hurd is destined for injured reserve, the 49ers would likely look to add another wideout to the active roster. Matt Barrows of The Athletic tweets that practice squad veteran Travis Benjamin is “the top candidate” to take Hurd’s spot.

Some things never change. He has a good gig going though. Making a living from being hurt.

Watching Johnny Majors Straight Ahead. Talk about getting screwed out of a Heisman…

Lost to a guy named Paul Horning who was part of a Notre Dame team that won one or two games that year. Just shows you how much homerism there is for that team.

I’m not optimistic about crowd noise for Pitt since it’s a 11 CST game. Hope I’m proven wrong.

At the Ice House in Wake Forest?

 

[volfaninpa]

Awesome news!

 

[jacobyvoln27]

At the Ice House in Wake Forest?

Raleigh ice plex

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Raleigh ice plex

Ah. Hard to tell. I spent A LOT of my youth in the Cary Ice House, Garner Ice House, Wake Forest Ice house and The RecZone, which is apparently closed now. Good luck to your son! I didn’t play for the Junior Canes but a different travel squad in Raleigh and it was some really great times.

Yes it is closed, we spend most of our time at Garner, my youngest boy is kind of a prodigy should make advanced with under 8 junior canes! Looking to play for Golden Bears of NC Force in the future not sure we can afford Junior Canes

2 wins and I believe they said 2 TD passes to 13ints.

I guess it's good it'll be 12 EST in Knoxville.

 

[JT3]

I just looked at their schedule.. holy smokes we’d go 11-1 or 10-2 with their schedule. I didn’t know it was THAT weak.

Year end and year out they skate thru their conference schedule with very few big name out of conference games. Then their annual SEC foe is USCjr smh.
