Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

I don't think we're going to win this one. Sucks that our first series loss will be to KY.

I think we stand a pretty legitimate shot of getting swept. With two UK runners on and no outs in the bottom of the 8th I’m certainly not feeling like we’re gonna get this series.

Swept? We are still playing a full game after this one, aren’t we?

7 innings, I just have trouble seeing a switch flip, but you should read this with the caveat that I’m a moron who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Things were going really well this season until @Glitch seduced TV. That's when things started to slide.

East TN?

Yea, we rented a cabin up Ski Mountain Rd with our friends a few years back. I think the fire missed those cabins luckily.

 

[Weezer]

KY scores a run.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Kentucky scores. 5-2.

 

[Weezer]

This is not fun.

 

[Rishvol]

Did he just spit at Kirby?

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Kentucky jawing now. Not that they haven’t earned the right.

 

[OrangenSC]

Okay, it's about time for me to take another trip out west.

I'll be there in July.

 

[Weezer]

Our guys have no spirit this series. Where's the cockiness and swagger?

For all the Baseball fans out there think about this: In today's baseball climate a pitcher like Greg Madux would have a hard time making it out of high school because of his velocity. I didn't say he wouldn't be found but it would be tough. They want them to throw HARD.

I went last year and watched a High School aged travel ball tournament and all of the prospects threw in the 90's on a radar gun. It has always amazed me as well that when people start talking about kids that live in their area's throwing it 100 mph.....BS. Those kids are few and far between and we are fortunate to have some Vols that can do it now.

If you want to get a thrill stand behind the backstop and watch a legit 100 mph pitch.......stunning.

Don’t get it twisted. Young Maddox was throwing 93-94.

 

[Weezer]

One out away from our first series loss....

 

[#JuanVol]

Maybe Kentucky has figured out how to pitch to us. Fastball right down the middle to get ahead then off speed the rest way.

 

[Weezer]

Ugh....

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Down go the Vols and Kentucky takes the series. Game 3 in 40 minutes.

My two favorite pictures I've taken over the years . Frozen Rose of Sharon and what trying to make it in Nashville really looks like. (look at all the reflections in the windows and through them).

not a lick of spirit and energy

I wish it hadn’t been Kentucky. I wish it’d been like Mississippi State.

I don't like losing to Kentucky

Don’t get it twisted. Young Maddox was throwing 93-94.

If you had read the follow-up post you would have noticed I said that he was indeed throwing in the low 90's when he was young but eventually dropped down in the upper 80's. That being said if he had been throwing in the mid 80's in High School it would be hard, not impossible, to make it now.
