Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[butchna]

Where did I say it meant anything? You’re extrapolating information from that post that isn’t there. My words were “not inspiring” which those things weren’t.

You continue to purposely misinterpret that as a declaration that CJH could not be successful here even though there is quite plainly no prediction made. It’s not smug to analyze the evidence before you. It is smug to misconstrue the words in front of you just so you can play forum police.

You use a lot of terminology like “purposely” and “smug” as well as “forum police”. All boils down to misdirection. There was no EVIDENCE. Just your take…which you presented (smugly) as otherwise. Before the season. I predicted Dayne Davis would lock up the LT spot for 3 seasons and compared him to Chad Clifton. No one has called me out on it but I was WRONG. Mouth that word until it’s more comfortable and simply utilize it. It’s liberating.

This game is so gross, why are we still watching

Because we support our team?

 

[turdherder11]

Barnes haterz can git

Not a hater, but im damn sure not a pumper. This teams gotta get a lot better before Saturday or we will get hammered @ LSU. 19 points vs an ole miss team that was down 4 players including their best is garbage . Also no TO with 10 seconds left, and taking an extremely low % 3 is bad too.

UT plays the most boring basketball imaginable lmao it’s like a team of 34 year olds at the YMCA competing.

Got to get the ball to the post and kick it back out. We make 3’s facing the basket but not when we pass it around the horn.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Probably already drove Coach Banks to Notre Dame. Why stop now?

I give my all for Tennessee.

 

[butchna]

So glad the Vols won. I just didn't want to have to come in here and fire coach Barnes tonight.

I fired him already. Need somebody to break into his office and delete the email

 

[volKano]

Should have won by 30 points. Ugly game and its a W but there's a lot of bad with this team. Don't worry it will show, like always with a Barnes coached team. Hopefully we can make some changes and get other players mins and get better. Would have been nice putting this team away early and getting younger and less exp players minutes.

If I’ve heard one turdherder say it I’ve heard them all.

Arkansas lost to Vandy last night at home. KY blew a big lead late to LSU. We won so people quit bitching

I’ll take a Fugly win over a Fugly loss.

Winning is boring? Do you recall Jeremy Pruitt's offense?

 

[UTProf]

This highlight is hilarious

I mean in fairness he's twice the size (or more) of those poor defenders. Would be funny as hell if he did that in college tho. I feel like UGA's tight end Bowser (yeah I know that's not his correct name but he reminds me of Bowser) is close to doing that and I hate them for it.

Its volnation not going to happen and some on here live to bitch and moan. Never enough good or bad.

 

[reVOLution33]

How did I miss this? Add another to the ledger…

I work with Nic's dad. We were watching it live Saturday. We were all pretty hype.

 

[1world1love]

One thing I love about the RF is the accuracy of the thread titles. Always spot on.

 

[tnhunter 10]

GO VOLS lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Thought we lost by twenty for sure as I was catching up in the thread from before the game started...lol.

 

[BigSteve09]

Yes. When you play 3/4ths of a game where you can't hit a shot and you're having to work your butts off just to keep it close by forcing turnovers - when every time you get it close they hit a couple 3s and stretch it out again - most teams quit and say it wasn't their night.

It's gutsy and tough to keep pressing and shooting until you work your way to over time then a win.

If you want to take this outcome entirely negatively that's your prerogative. Won't catch me b*tching over a Vols win, though. So miss me with that.

Relax coach.

A win is a win. I'm not acting like the sky is falling, I'm also not going to act like we just beat Goliath.


And I'm not b*tching, I always had faith

 

[UTSuave’]

We will win it under 2!… @Enki_Amenra get your live bet ready!

 

[Vols4us]

For those who did not watch the game, do not watch the replay. It will make you nauseous.

Just know that the short line up won the game when it mattered most.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Imma go ahead and get this out the way...I told you guys a while back that this is a good, not great basketball team. This team is not going to win the SEC, and if it gets to the Sweet Sixteen it will be a miracle.

That doesn't make it suck, or mean it is a bad-mediocre team...it is a decent team that does some things well and other things not so well.

It has some talent, but it has some uncomplimentary talent...it is what it is.

Not misdirection at all. If you can show me where I made any prediction that isn’t predicated on your own inferences then we can end this here. Many things start out not promising and end up successful, that doesn’t change the fact that they weren’t promising in the beginning.

And yes those things are evidence, just because they didn’t turn out to be useful evidence doesn’t suddenly shift them into an abstract or hypothetical. They happened, that makes them evidence of something. In this case, evidence that Gabriel was upset by the way CJH left and evidence that TMA was more enamored with UCF as a program than CJH as a coach and not evidence that pertains to CJH’s ability to coach.

Again I’ve said I was wrong about that more than once in this thread so obviously that’s not your end goal here or else you wouldn’t still be here banging your drum so hard.

Some of the talent is young, so there is still plenty of time for things to start clicking. Sometimes it doesn't look like we are far off.

I just keep telling myself that we have shooters and we do have size/athleticism available. Barnes still has time to let these ingredients blend into something nice. Right now it looks like what it is - a work in progress.

Vescovi looked like he had the ability to freeze time around him on a couple of those late 3's. Veteran moment.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I just got back from Wal*Mart where I saw a dude with a monkey on his head. No, really. He had a spider monkey holding on for dear life on his shoulder with it's little hands wrapped right around his neck and it's head up against his. What's weird is that your comment was the one loaded and ready to read when I returned. lol.

Synchronicity is real.
