Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Fullfillmer]

So no one noticed Brian Maurer to Stephen F Austin?

Yes I saw that - but thought maybe a misread - hard to pick all that up on his hat.

 

[VolGee4]

I agree he's great, but there are plenty of DL going to the league from lots of other teams, so saying "Nolan is jeopardizing his NFL potential for short term NIL money" is a pretty ridiculous statement.

No, it's not. But you missed the big picture suggestion that I made anyway. Some recruits are going to let the immediate money deals cause them not to maximize their worth later on. It's happening.

 

[Fullfillmer]

You seem to be stating a whole lot of pure message board conjecture as “fact” to support some kind of narrative.

As opposed to the cold hard facts that you have submitted for your narrative?

 

[Dudley Smith]

Umm, made up BS. Ewers turned 19 before graduating from high school. He went to my daughter’s high school…

I think it was that high school players couldn’t get NIL deals regardless of age under TX law. He was going to Ohio State regardless, and kind of screwed up their plans of spacing out QB’s by reclassifying.

Saw some people talking about this while internetting. . . it's crazy that there are natural ways to fight most chemical dependencies and they are so hard to find. Apparently this plant can eliminate the withdrawal symptoms of alcohol and opioid dependents. Crazy, it could help a ton of people, but not many know about it. . .

A word of warning . Mixed with other substances, it can be deadly.

Bottom line, don’t mix substances.

For those who don't think money could have a negative aspect, I have two words:

Albert Haynesworth

 

[VolGee4]

I will bet you 6 figures that Hooker and Tillman are not getting 6 figure deals and probably not 5 figures. Where do you get this stuff ? There is no one locally selling cookies or sandwiches funding any six figure annual deal. It is exactly this kind of crap that causes people to wait and say - hey where's my six figure deal.

We have already established that we offered Nolan and Evans free hotdogs once every other week. Please let me know where the end of this rainbow is - with buckets of gold ....

We haven't established anything.

But I don't believe Hendon Hooker is coming back for hot dogs. Dream on. What's been lost is common sense.

Tank Bigsby in the portal. Call him. Call him now.

Is your mom gonna let you gamble with your action figures?

I agree with that statement, but I don't think it's happening in the Nolen scenario. He can make money now and not be jeopardizing his NFL potential. Garner isn't THAT good.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Caught up


Now some big news will break and I will be 100 pages behind by the time I get off work.

We will see, but Garner is in his backyard. Yes, Garner is pretty damn good.

Let's all post just a bunch of useless drivel so Doc gets 100 pages behind. I know we post useless drivel the majority of the time but let's just post more of it.

 

[tnvols72]

I am not sure why you think that. His reputation as a recruiter within the conference is tremendous. You could possibly argue that the reason he has put so many kids in the league is because he has recruited at such a high level. However, he has to have some development skills to go along with that. It is not orange glasses for me. It is simple numbers. I would like to know who you think is better in the conference. I am legitimately interested.

@jave36 has not responded to you because he is still busy looking up the names of DL coaches in the SEC and around the country because he cant name another one that will fit his narrative that he is going for.

 

[mrmax86]

Apparently this is news? I thought it was for sure he was coming back. So, Purdue will have their QB for the bowl. Like I said, don't think it was ever in question he'd play in the bowl, but I guess this confirms it.

 

[mrmax86]

Also, hearing Bell and Karlaftis will not play in the bowl.

 

[RiotVol]

Not attacking you RiotVol.

I think it might be more my interpretation of what he said as opposed to him making stuff up, if I'm being honest. I blame the scotch.

He was pretty adamant it was due to the difference in the state laws between Ohio and Texas. My dude has a law degree and worked in compliance before going to get his phd. A real f@#$ing over-achiever, imho.

I know everyone is excited about recruiting and the upcoming holidays but i need to vent a little and ask a couple questions for the ones who may know. So after a week the investigation wrapped up, the bank finally puts the money back that was stolen out of our account only to find out the funds are frozen and my account restricted due to it being compromised. The bank needs me to send them a copy of my drivers liscense front/back, most recent utility bill proving my identification is what they have on file. After that they are gonna send me a hard copy check of the amount owed and could take up to 14 business days. I told the bank if they made it this hard for the hackers to get my money it woulda never gotten stolen. My question is this protocol for it to be so hard to get my money back and to take this long? I know its a long shot but is there any legal action that can be taken??Im the only income for my family and this has almost crippled us with my next paycheck still a week away.


Sorry for such a long post.

Honestly, I would be excited that they are getting it back to you that quickly. Can you simply not go to the bank with all that information and get it freed up earlier ? Do you know anyone at the bank , Have a lending officer ?
You might see if they could free up a small amount to get you by for 14 days or live off your credit card for 14 days. Just spitballing.

I don't think there is much value in legal action.

 

[jave36]

By every objective measure (All conference, All American, NFL draft picks) he absolutely is without question.

All those metrics could just as easily mean he's the best recruiter. If he were as good as you all are acting, we'd have every top DL in the country begging to play for us.

Thankfully I don't need it, just thought it was an interesting option for anyone who could use it or knows someone it could help.

This is the exact reason we should be building a time machine.

Albert Haynesworth

Lol. Money was the only reason Haynesworth had that monster season in 2008 in the first place. Dude never liked football to begin with.

Legal action would just cost more $ and take much longer than 14 days.

 

[jave36]

@jave36 has not responded to you because he is still busy looking up the names of DL coaches in the SEC and around the country because he cant name another one that will fit his narrative that he is going for.

Or I don't sit on VN to make sure I respond to every post in less than one hour's time? I have no idea who is better or who might be better. Get a life man.

I do know that until he came here, I never saw a single post from anyone saying Auburn had the best DL coach in the country. In fact, I saw plenty of people saying he simply benefited from getting top recruits like Carl Lawson and Montravius Adams to make his resume look better.

I also know that we aren't easily getting every single top DL recruit. In fact, we're not really getting any of the top DL recruits. If Garner were the consensus best DL coach in the country and everyone knew it, we'd probably have quite a few more.

You guys have sour grapes that a recruit chose another school over us, so you're making ridiculous statements like "he just jeopardized his NFL career to make NIL money."

 

[Fullfillmer]

I have a feeling that Heupel could've actually gotten above avg results from Guarantano. If he was the only hope @ QB, I think Heupel could've reigned him in a little and schemed to help cover his deficiencies. It's a good feeling to actually believe our coach can do this.

Yep - next year the light's gonna come on for Guarantano - he just needs good coaching - Tennessee couldn't see his value and coach him up - that's why he will be a star at Washington State.

Guarantano and above average results should never be used in the same sentence.
