Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Weezer]

Could be...could lose 10 guys and be lucky to win 6.

You say you're not a Debbie Downer, but you're always introducing the worst possible scenario to the conversation. What would you call that?

UCLA v NC State cancelled 5 hours before kickoff. Ridiculous. Why waste these teams time and money to fly them across the country only to cancel?

Holiday Bowl cancelled. UCLA had to back out.

Realism...if I was a downer I would be saying this staff sucks, can't recruit and can't win big at some point down the road when they have a real two deep.

I’d be curious to know if the players actually had symptoms or were just tested for the hell of it. I watched a video where damn orange juice tests positive for covid if you put it on a test so I didn’t trust these that much.

Says the dude who moped all f'n year.

lmao. Apparently, you have no idea when I'm being serious and when I'm not. Or you're somehow mistaking me for a certain ex-poster we cannot name. I said 7-5. We went 7-5. I'm not disappointed in this season at all.

This is f'n stupid..who is bankrolling all this pathetic cowardice?

Aw, so it's realism to always expect the very worst to happen.

Harsin is not a good coach.

Having their first losing season since 2012 probably wasn't what the fanbase had in mind when Gus was fired

Meanwhile, Gus beats Florida and has UCF running with some positive momentum

 

[Ten_Titans]

Tank about to re-enter the portal lol

It isn't like he doesn't have plenty of time. He could transfer in May and start in the Fall for virtually any team in the country.

Way too early for Auburn fans to celebrate him coming back lol.

Hopefully the bowl games picked up travel expense.

Decimated??

If they were all in the hospital, I'd agree

My guess is they are having runny noses and mild cold-like symptoms, consistent with 99.9% of folks who've caught the Omicron variant...

Alternate headline: players who aren’t sick and also are not at risk from a cold, are being forced to sit out game forcing cancellation

There better not be one damn cancellation next year and anyone who says covid isn’t political is lying. Biden says “there’s no federal fix” and I saw a basketball team cancelled even though they had 100% vaccination rate? You’re not making a good case when you tell these players and people to get vaxxed so they can play and when they do you still cancel their games. ********!

If you were a downer you would just lie? Lol OK.

 

[bluegrasser]

Our backup OL look scary. Is Davis the guy that always get hurt on extra points and FG's?

That was by design, to add extra time before defense came back on field.

Gus would have won that bowl game today, I'm confident saying that. Even with the trash QB. He would have at least made adjustments after halftime.

My brother @BaldBiker and others who I may be forgetting might enjoy this, plus I bet this is local to some of y'all (even if it was a few years back).

Absolutely incredible!!!!! Best 13 minutes I have spent in a very long time. Thank you for sharing.

 

[OrangenSC]

If we have a second 7 win season the negavols will be out screaming on the roof tops about how CJH is not an SEC caliber coach and we will never go anywhere with him or this style of offense.

Nobody will be able to convince them about a depleted roster.

Couldn't even improve after having a full off-season with his system.

Well, I'm also concerned about the negas for this game. Well not concerned about them, but there's a lot of talk about expecting a blowout. If it doesn't happen, shoot, if we don't put them away in the 1st quarter, it's gonna get ugly on VN during and after the game.

Hey @BaldBiker, when you were on this team, did you all have sticks or rocks? TIA.

These bowls today have been some of the most boring football. Snoozefest.

"decimated"
So literally one in ten were out. Thanks, Brucey.

Double post. It might have really confused Old Baldie.

I don’t think it’s political in the sense that I don’t think there is a particular political end in mind for a lot of this. I think collectively a lot of hypochondriacs clearly hold considerable public and private power.
