Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

[sneakergawd]

The obvious ones (cause no eligibility left) are:

Hendon Hooker
Cedric Tillman
Juwan Mitchell
LaTrell Bumphus
Chase McGrath
Trevon Flowers
Princeton Fant
Paxton Brooks
Jerome Carvin
Jeremy Banks (I think he technically has 1 year left, but doubt he uses it)

Darnell Wright, has 1 year left but is likely gone for the draft.

AP said Mitchell can come back if he chooses

I honestly think a wet field benefits us at home. Their defense is going to be trying to line up while we're snapping the ball, they'll be slipping and sliding trying to get in place or catch up to where they think our receivers will be. Just in time for Hyatt to blow past them.

Just hate the idea of heavy feet when a lot of what we do requires speed. . . but both teams will be wet, so it shouldnt make much of a difference. Hopefully its just the field that's wet and the rain has stopped by gametime.

Mizzou is the best remaining challenge we have and I'm not sure it's close...considering the last 2 opponents. We need to steamroll these punks and leave no doubt for the rest of the season.

And I wouldn't mind if Hooker's stat lines were

250 Yd Pass
150 Yd Rush
6 tot TD

in all 3 games

Was there a bye week I was unaware of? Feels like we haven’t played ball in 2 weeks.

 

[Jack5151]

He has not played yet this season.........

Think he will ever play there?

That tri-star logo is sweet!

He's got good size. Peay does have some pretty good DBs, but I think he's got a shot.

Tad better angle...........

Hooah!!

Just got back from a Veteran's Day program at my granddaughter's school. There was a 90+ year old WWII/Korea vet there who bore a striking resemblance to @BaldBiker.

Maybe the great, great, great, great grandson of @BaldBiker ?

Sorry, Peay. The University of Tennessee represents the entire state, not AP.

1st ones to do it though.................

Orange tri-star on one side with Block T on the other would be kinda sweet.

Looks like rain for tomorrow. Does that help/hurt us?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

So Hooker's stats going into our final 3 regular season games are

179 of 252 71% 2533 passing yards, 21 TDs 2 INTs, 91 attempts 355 rushing yards 4 TDs

I'd like to see him eclipse 3k passing yards for the season (468 yards to do it)
I'd like to see him eclipse 31 passing TDs for the season (11 to do it)
I'd like to see him eclipse 500 rushing yards (145 to do it)

Obviously in final tallies post season would factor in, but I think he could get there in 3 games. throw for 4 TDs or more twice and he should all but have it.

The #Grumors are gaining steam for USF. I feel like I should make an account on their board, create a Grumors thread and then start posting grumors everyday.

@LA Vol are the Haslam’s involved with Tennessee’s NIL efforts?

Oh the days of Grumors on Volnation..seemed like so long ago.

Rain definitely doesn’t ever help this offense

[Jackcrevol]

Idk, but whoever gets the top pick is surely taking Will Levis.

When they say more weight is put on conference champions.

Last year you could tell that the coaching from Heupel and his staff made a big difference in the performance of the team from the prior season. Can you tell from the way Florida has played this season that Napier's staff has had a positive effect? They don't seem to be better. They haven't quit on the season yet, so I guess that's a plus. I'm not seeing anything that reflects them making big improvements on their record next season.

New coaches tend to get a boost in recruiting. Add in the NIL money they're starting to throw around, and you can see why their class is going to be good. On the other hand, they'll have to stack more classes like this together for them to really turn it around and that's going to require Napier coaching them up and proving himself next season. I'm not sold that it will happen.

we out recruited Florida consistently thru the 90's if memory serves, and they beat us on the sidelines every year.
