Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[engineerVOL]

I thought I remembered him saying something like we just aren't very strong or something of the sorts

I’d like to see those quotes. Could someone please do the research for me? Mkay thanks.

 

[engineerVOL]

Hmmmm
Richmond?


Maybe we need to slow down on the criticism toward him

After both false starts he absolutely mauled his guy on the next play.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Wow. How did Shoop do so poorly? Even with Butch meddling the difference is insane and I think Shoop's a good coach.

Didn't let him bring his own guys in, he had to learn the terminology already in place instead of the players learning his, Jones had more special teams periods in practice than defensive periods, stuff like that. Bozo Jones is to blame.

 

[Catbone]

We are 113th in total offense? I didn't think it was that bad

 

[JCP201]

Richmond?

I thought that was interesting too.

 

[UpstateVol613]

Btw anyone see who is ranked 25 this week??!!













That's right UAB and my guy Bill Clark! I was ready to hire him last year and he is still proving he's a rising star

Weren’t you also pumping Greg Schiano? How did that work out for you? He couldn’t even get an interim job.

I think the offensive stats are a bit misleading but we are in an era where teams are scoring 40-50 points regularly and we have been playing some stout defenses. Offense isn't great but its definitely not as inept as it was last year and that stat makes it look like it is.

I was in love with FUENTE no S.

But yea I think schinao would have been good here. Similar personality to Pruitt

Speaking of Fuente...
That defense... woof

 

[BruinVol]

No idea how that post ended up that way

 

[BruinVol]

Yep what a fall from grace

 

[BigOrangeVols]

Bud Foster is very proven. They'll turn it around or he'll retire.

 

[volsagain]

If all those losses are Alabama, Georgia, Florida every year, I guarantee you will be pissed.

Tennessee’s coach, make no mistake, is and WILL ALWAYS be judged against those three.

You forgot the Gators. I try to but just keep thinking about beating them .

 

[volsagain]

Swinney and Clemson won his conference in year 3. That’s who you compared it to....

We don't have that easy of a schedule.

Nick, you are a much better man than I. When I read your story, this song was the first thing that came to my mind.

***DISCLAIMER: There is a profanity in this song. If this makes you squirm in your seat, don't listen to it. Especially towards the end when he goes into an acapella riff that starts, "Drivers are rude, such attitudes, when I show my piece, complaints cease..."

Vintage Offspring... whew. Take me back to freshman year. “HeyyyyyAY! Come out and PLAY!”

 

[Smokey123]

We don't have that easy of a schedule.

Exactly. We’ll be playing @ OU, @ UGA along with Bama and UF. @Ark will be our other West team. I doubt our fans would meltdown with 9-3

 

[volsagain]

Too early to say for me. If, in year 3, we lose to those guys and we were favorites vs. say, Georgia and Florida? Yeah, I’d be pissed.

It’s all about context.

We may be favorite over Florida but not Georgia. But should be a great game.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Why is Wanya our current Dormady?

Speaking of Dormady, have you kept up with him this year? How's he doing? He's in Texas, no?

 

[volsagain]

Exactly. We’ll be playing @ OU, @ UGA along with Bama and UF. @Ark will be our other West team. I doubt our fans would meltdown with 9-3

9-3 want be bad at all if we're still in the game with a chance to win the ones we lose .

 

[DiderotsGhost]

We are 113th in total offense? I didn't think it was that bad

It's an extremely misleading stat.

We're around #70 in offensive efficiency, which is the much better measure of offensive productivity. The problem with 'total offense' and 'total yardage' is that it rewards teams that play fast, up-tempo styles, even if those styles are inefficient. And I think Pruitt has been deliberately slowing down some of our games due to our issues with defensive depth (see the Charlotte game where we ran something like 48 plays total). So while our offense hasn't been great, those 'total offense' type of stats make it look much worse than it really is.

(Btw, our defensive efficiency has been climbing rapidly.)

I remember that day. I think you were merely saying Schiano was the hot name in College Football before he went to Tampa and he absolutely was. He turned down Miami.

 

[VFLBerg]

Looks like he has barely played: Quinten Dormady

He’s way more Butch than Pruitt.

 

[Roustabout]

In all fairness, as Lyle went down flipping and flopping like a boated crappie, I dont blame Mays for looking elsewhere. Tennessee was a hot mess last year into the early signing day.

What he will likely regret as he grows and matures is the immature way he handled the flip to Next Year University (aka UGA) But we all acted like jackasses when we were younger. So cut the kid a break and let's move on.

Yes! This thread is about Morris, not some low life bulldog. Stop mentioning his wretched name and move on.
