Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

Ive seen a lot of UK fans bringing up that we have not played a good defense yet that's why our numbers are inflated. Lmao....they keep pointing out that UF has a bad defense...but yet they only scored 19 points on that defense ( UK had a pick 6 to give them 26). Their fans are clueless.

We could have scored 45 on UF if we wanted, but we decided to kill clock on the last drive and try to run it out. Score was closer than what the game actually was against UF.

Watching a re-run of The Office last night, a line jumped out at me that I hadn't noticed before.

Angela: I want eye contact.
Dwight: Do you realize how unnatural that is in nature?

When I was a student at Tennessee, Tennessee-LSU was a home game. Was raining just like this. I was on crutches due to a badly sprained ankle. It was so bad that I couldn’t bear weight on it yet. (Walking boots hadn’t been invented yet) Coming back to my seat, going up the stadium stairs in the lower student section, my crutches both slid out from under me at the same time. I was headed face first into the concrete steps, happened so quickly that I didn’t have time to release the crutches. At 2” from a brutal face plant, I stopped in the air. Then I was put back up on my feet. A group of some of the drunkest students on either side of the stairs all caught me simultaneously. It was truly awesome. Half of them could barely speak due to inebriation, but they were lightning fast in their response. I think that my guardian angels stepped in and took control. Only explanation for the quick coordinated effort required to do that. I was sober because of the rain and crutches.

It’s likely that some of you older VN Morans were those students ( or more likely, your parents or grandparents). Just wanted to thank everyone involved in saving me that day!

The year was 1982. Game ended in a 24-24 tie.

This year shall be known as the Year of the Curse Breaker in future Tennessee Football Lore. LSU is the next opponent to feel the wrath of these Tennessee Volunteers.
It’s time for The Curse Breakers to destroy the evil put upon us in the 2001 SECCG. Just one more down in our journey to:

15-0

No “cool story, bro??” Because that is bonafide cool story, bro material.

I'm riding with ya but need to know what the under 70.5 is for. Which game?

 

[zhangliao04]

The fan in me still feels jaded by how his recruitment ended up. But then every other part of me completely understands the WHY. Please CJH, please work out at UT.

It's the only o/u70.5. . . let me look.

Oregon Arizona

The crazy thing is, these picks are not out of the realm of possibility. An insane amount of stuff would need to happen, but I don't think it's impossible. . . just. . . improbable. . . what's even crazier, this wasn't even close to my nuttiest parlay this week,

Forgive for the LSU pick, it was + odds and a possibility. Hopefully it's the one game that wrecks the parlay.

Tennessee will wear their Smokey Gray uniforms on Saturday and look for dark mode uniforms later in the year, perhaps Kentucky.

But don’t look for them in marquee match up/rivalry games or championship games. The Tennessee administration’s focus on branding is orange and white. Tennessee wore traditional home uniforms against Florida to match with checkered Neyland and because those are their school colors. So you will see some alternative uniforms in all sports on a regular basis but the understanding is that they are not going to move away from tradition, especially on the big stage.

My teaching partner is on the way to the game right now and sent this pic! Which one of you morans is needing gas money to get down to Louisiana?

Hope they go further into traditions and take a stab @ our 1904 uniforms as alt jerseys,

Bad for Draymond. Really bad. It's one thing in the middle of a physical moment in play but that? Smh.

Kentucky: “THERE IS NO GAME BIGGER THAN VOLS!!!!1!!!1!!”

Tennessee: “…dark mode uniforms later in the year, perhaps Kentucky. But don’t look for them in marquee match up/rivalry games or championship games.”

That's assault. Should face legal consequences for that

 

[mrMet]

Never seen their Rye before. Pretty cool

 

[johnfnkelly]

Way out of line. Either Jordan Poole, the future of GSW demands a trade or Draymond gets let go. Dude just put a potential repeat in jeopardy in a blink of eye.

There's no going back from that. You're a 30 year old professional athlete - act like it.

This administration gets it. Got tired of seeing UT in gray or black against Florida and Georgia. Save those for the non rival SEC opponents.

Not that bad for Draymond except for his public image. I’m not sure he had the best image before.

Y’all are being wayyyyyyyyyy too dramatic about this
