Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

Wow.

We don't know what's significant. I was told Nolan would require 6 figures/year. I bet the biggest NIL deals we'll see are low 5 figures for our guys. I think we're playing with a different deck of cards.

The difference is that you are paying for Nolan possibly becoming good. Hooker and Tillman have proven it. If Hooker was on a top 10 QB board, then he was probably looking at a top 5 round pick. Josh Dobbs was a 4th round pick and signed a 4 year, $3 million deal with $600k guaranteed. Hooker is getting something significant to stay.

So you're speculating? Not critical, I was just wondering if you had heard something.

No, I don’t have that kind of status. But you got to follow the money. That was the only way he was staying- just makes sense.

Okay, so my daughter told me that the Southlake kicker/punter wants to go to Tennessee. For the season missed one extra point (made close to 70). Missed on 46 yard FG. Made a 55 yard FG. Multiple punts over 60 yards. Averaging mid 40s. Routinely kickoff through the end zone. Southlake scores so much, he gets lots of kick offs.

On a side note, they got manhandled by Duncanville yesterday. Was pretty brutal. Of course, I think that the State final opponent North Shore is gonna now destroy Duncanville.

One funny thing about the game yesterday was a DB for Duncanville got called for holding or pass interference on all but two passes that he defended. Like 7 penalties and he would throw his hands up like he didn’t do anything and they were all blatant! If I were Southlake’s OC, I would have gone at him every play for 10-15 penalty yards until the coach pulled him. Then gone at the backup…

Saw that coming. Probably A&M

What’s the connection to aTm?

 

[Weezer]

I hope we hammer the portal to shore up our defense.

 

[UTMVol76]

I thought of that today. I mean it happens in the NFL. Obviously skill players get a bunch more than the left guard and it seems to work.

Big difference though between a bunch and nothing. That’s what I’m afraid of here.

Let me guess, he wants to date your daughter and he knows you are a huge Vol Fan.

Yep, I have said that we needed to throw advertising money at current players to keep them, and that’s not in violation of making an offer to secure a recruit. Hooker and Tillman needed 6 figure offers, and it appears they are getting them. This is another part of the analysis about recruits just taking the best deal they get offered. If you go to UT, at least offensive players and the DL will get developed. If you show out in one year (see Hooker and Tillman), you will get even better deals.

And that’s a sustainably winning culture to retain the best already on campus.

It’s the way to championships year after year.

Doc, you can afford more than a kicker. Buy us some defense!

Wrong Evans

I see.

Wow.

Very interested to see where he goes. Grass may not be greener.

 

[InVOLuntary]

He's going to whichever team offers him the most cash. That's the only green he's worried about.

You really think RG is the only sec DL coach capable of producing NFL players?

Yes

Now cool it Zippy

 

[Ten_Titans]

Chris Collinsworth calls big plays like he's doing commentary on grid lock traffic. He's the NFL's Gary Danielson in terms of being terrible.

Anybody know who this is? Something to get excited about?

Pretty sure I recall seeing Hooker in the $500k range. I’d be shocked if we had anyone over $1M til the NCAA is out of our hair completely, which takes us out of the Evans sweepstakes most likely.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

He done kilt him. Oh my.

The boss walk by 77 after Trey done kilt the guy that tried to do the spin move lol good lort

Where did you see that? I'm interested to see who funded that?

It was mentioned in this thread about 2-3 weeks ago. Might’ve been conjecture by the OP tho.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Any of you morans have any experience with air fryers? Im thinking about purchasing one for Christmas. Looking for one of the bigger ones, just don’t know which I should purchase. I’ve been reading reviews and have no idea which way to go here

I have a ninja. Great wings and fries. Everything has been really good.
Got the one with two baskets, can do fries and wings at the same time…
