Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[KB5252]

So I remember butchna saying some things might be aligning for us......... Are we happy?

In all seriousness has there been any good news?

 

[SweetasSoda]

Yes, make sure you track your blood pressure and ox level. If your fever gets much higher or you start coughing, call your doctor. This is when my blood pressure soared and I had a mini stroke.

Oh no! You doing okay?

 

[de1conley]

Are we still looking good for Evans? Need an elite RB who can catch out of the backfield ...

TBD and this wknd will tell it all.

Figured you were offering up some of your ill gotten gains as a prize. You know, as a penance for your gambling and refusal to buy Weezer a recruit. Anyway, I am in!

Already gave most of it away a couple weeks ago.

How’s your breathing? Short of air, labored? Do not mess around with this. You very well could hv COVID pneumonia. It acts/gets worse quickly.

COVID pneumonia is unlike other pneumonia in appearance and it will be on you before you know it.

I recommend if you’re still feeling lethargic and running a fever in the morning, get to the doctor, especially if you aren’t vaccinated.

Right now just a fever no cough for me but my wife has one left over from the first time. Its not worse and neither of us are laboring to breath. Right now my temp is 99.6 I am taking Tylenol every 2 hrs. My wives temp is 100.1

This has to be fast players instead of strong right?

1. Those are the best announcers I've heard on TV in a long damn time. Why are they calling FCS? They brought a little bit of the magic that Ward did in that they're excited about what's happening on the field. Ward was a master of that so much so there were a few times I can remember thinking 'well you don't have to be that excited when it's the other team.' lol. IOW, they sounded like they were having fun not just filling air with whatever dumb remark but having fun watching football.

2. I'm shocked at the fan support there. ETSU had closed up shop and I know Fulmer did a ton of work to rebuild their program before handing the keys over to Sanders and that Sanders probably would still be in D1 were it not for Fulmer and home calling (ETSU ain't too far from Morristown ) but that's still an enormous amount of fan support all things considered. ETSU seems to be positioning itself to slide into the spot that Carson Newman once held both in terms of having fan support and in terms of them positioning to be a really good D2.

It's mind blowing that Carson Newman is no longer even decent after they were so good for so long but we've all seen it happen. I don't know what the blueprint for ETSU will be now that NIL matters. Carson Newman used to scoop up those kids with PWOs and put them on full scholarship.

3. That was an amazing finish. I really hope ETSU continues to thrive under Sanders. It will only help the region and maybe even send a breakout player our way now and then.

ETSU is D1, just FCS

What a bad example…Alabama has NFL talent everywhere, legit ANY quarterback that has started there has had success.

But you also highlight the problem, Ty chose Alabama before ever seeing Josh Heupel coach a game here. I mean I’d love to flip him, but the question was where would you throw a million for a NIL. And to me if ya already got a high rated QB & a returning star I’d rather take the more instant impact player.

Hurts, Tua, Jones, they aren’t in the NFL because Bama had NFL Talent everywhere, but because they had NFL talent. How many of the QB’s ranked a few spots below or even above are in the NFL or had near the success.
Bryce young, Luke Doty, Hudson Card ranked 1,2,3 dual threat on rival. Do you think Doty or Card would be anywhere near as successful as Young if they had been the one Bama signed? He!! No.
So back to the original post:
Could a #3 ranked Simpson be that much better than 12 ranked Jackson and worth 1 million NIL? Sure as hell could be.
Will he be? Nobody knows

I believe so

I’m in four fantasy leagues. In three of them, my opponents started Dalvin Cook. RIP week 14.

Bet not be, that is a kid from NPA and I love him but he’s definitely not a college OT

Bad feet? Not enough length? Why isn't he a college OT?

 

[Devo182]

Love watching Dabo whine like a little toddler. He only cares about the state of college football now that his coaches and players are bailing

Oh I'm sure Dabo's just concerned how chaotic CFB has become recently...ya know with all the coaches coming and going whenever they want and getting paid and bought by the boatload

 

[theutvolunteers]

Lane to UCLA…?

That would be interesting!

 

[de1conley]

Not enough length definitely needs to be an interior guy.

As a Steelers fan this is a multifaceted issue. OL is probably the worst in the NFL, Wrs aren’t special and don’t get separation, then old ass Ben holds the damn ball way too long trying to wait on Wrs to make a break to get open.

The ad banner at the top covers the top…

They need to find a QB who can extend the pocket and is a threat to run. . .

And he's slow as molasses. He has zero escapability. @Weezer has more fast twitch.

Vols offensive line coach Glen Elarbeetraveled to the Nashville area on Thursday, checking on Class of 2023 offensive lineman Ayden Bussell and Class of 2023 linebacker Ethan Crisp at Mount Juliet (Tenn.) High School. Elarbee also stopped at Franklin Road Academy in Nashville to check on Class of 2023 offensive lineman Joe Crocker.

#7 Texas loses and #1 Purdue loses to a 4-4 Rutgers team.
