Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[SLICKYINC]

Initially football would pay more if he's the number 1 pick but if he ever made it for a contract in MLB he'd make way more money in baseball

Really I don't care what he does, I just want to see what the Cardinals do with that first pick. It should be fun.

Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard to me..

Funny story. I was in Kroger a few weeks back, and I walk up the self-checkout line and there's some tall blonde woman at the kiosk next to me yapping away on her cell phone, as loud and obnoxious as you could possibly be. As I begin scanning my groceries I'm thinking to myself "Inside Voices Please" (basic manners, stuff you learn in kindergarten). It's at that point that I realize that it's Heather from the morning show. And her voice is just as irritating IRL as it is on the radio.

The older you get, the more you forget. Just make up s**t to fill in the blanks. If it's wrong, oh well....makes for great stories though....

I ran for 800 yards and had 10 touchdowns....forgot that part

That sounds exactly like I picture her being...I wonder if Joey Freshwater taped her mouth shut when they...you know..

I may be in the vast minority, but I think that if I were picking and Kyler Murray was there for me to pick, it would be a hard pass. I know the NFL game has been evolving and smaller quarterbacks are successful now, but dude is 5' 8" and 165 pounds soaking wet.

I’m thinking that if I’m Kyler Murray I’m going to the MLB and making more money lol

 

[butchna]

I dont think he would be dumb because even if he were drafted last in the first round, he would still make at least twice what he will initially make in baseball. MLB will be there for him when he wants to go there. I just dont think he will have success in the NFL.

Don’t know of any baseball players that did well after putting it off...seen plenty of the reverse. You don’t play baseball and your skills regress.

He will make more money in the NFL initially.

A good point

That isn’t necessarily true.

 

[BruinVol]

And you know as well as I do being a top 10 pick in the MLB doesn’t guarantee you ever see the big leagues.

Correct

Let me look and see what signing bonus he agreed to in the summer to make sure my post was correct

 

[StoVol]

Excellent article about a bright offensive mind here, never seen some of these plays shown in the gifs in this article, pulling Tackles and Te's from the strong side and running weak.

Then play action or quick passes to opposite side. Dude runs veer concepts like Art Briles but then passes off of it

This is where its headed IMO, plus looks like he may turn down Ok state, which would be awesome lol

I heard on the radio here this morning that the A's plan on him being at Spring Training and he will be with the big boys

 

[BearCat204]

Correct

4M plus?

 

[BruinVol]

5mil is what he got for signing with the As

 

[BigOrangeVols]

Clay Travis, not surprisingly, has the "but actually" take about how Murray should go to the NFL for more $.

 

[BearCat204]

That isn’t necessarily true.

If he decides to go to the NFL, he will more than likely be drafted in the first round and probably #1 overall if KK has his way. Mayfield got 32M guaranteed with his rookie deal.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

I heard on the radio here this morning that the A's plan on him being at Spring Training and he will be with the big boys

His initial contract was $5 mil but if he is playing with the big boys immediately there could be a revision to his contract for more money

That’s a lot of money lol

He wont be playing with the big boys for a bit. (Other than the Spring at the most)

I listen to Houston Kress in the morning until Ainge comes on because of Heather and how often she says stupid s**t. AM radio is rough. I like ainge for when he explains nuisances of football and the interworkings with cutcliffe. Dont really care for his commentary outside of that but I find the shop talk valuable enough.

Agreed, Ainge is very good to listen to when he's breaking down football. He's done well on the radio, and he's good on TV on Sunday mornings as well.

More storytime. The old morning show with Mickey, Heather, and Jeff was so bad, that it forced me to find something else to listen to. I pulled out the receiver in my car and installed a new system with bluetooth and satellite connections just so I didn't have to local sports radio. I loved listening to Mike and Mike on ESPN until Greenberg decided to stab Golic in the back and run for the money on Woke Center AM. Golic and Wingo is still pretty good though.

My prediction of starters assuming Smith unfortunately cannot play:

LT: Wanya, LG: JJ, C: Kennedy, RG: Wright, RT: Richmond

I also expect the guards to be in a fierce battle with Carvin for the starting job. So it could be Carvin starting over Wright as a freshman. We'll see. Good problem to have.

Personally I was real high on Calbert, 320+ athletic. Hope he figures it out, or retire. Just the way it has to be going forward.

He does explain those nuisances well....

Haha just messing with you.

The bottom line is the As we're complete idiots for allowing him to play football

Unless they are willing to offer him a MLB contract for what he could potentially make with a NFL rookie deal...........................................and that aint happening. Maybe if he were drafted by the Yankees or a organization not named the Oakland Athletics

Edit: I say that aint happening, but who knows what could happen......just unlikely

Dan Patrick is great too. Local sports radio is so hit or miss, it's crazy how bad it can be.
