Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

I’m as positive as anyone on here…. You are paid to win games like this one Saturday…. It’s a down Florida team with a new head coach on their first road trip…. We SHOULD win this game…. If we don’t…. It gets even harder next season… Florida will be better and it would be on the road…. Good chance this staff would start 0-3 against Florida if we don’t get this win….Doesn’t mean that we overreact and start firing coaches…. Writing petitions.or any other moranic thing our fanbase has done….The staff will deserve criticism though and the staff should be critical of themselves so they can figure out what went wrong.

And there it is..

A Florida beat writer just told Basilio that their star linebacker Miller will not play in our game and will miss the next game also. He said that's a massive loss as he was the heart of the defense.

Sucks for the youngman, wish his recovery well but definitely not mad over that development… #GBO

Interesting that AP said Small and Sampson were 75% to play yesterday and now Mack is saying they're good to go. He said Tillman is 25% FWIW

So he’s really 50% ? jk

AP sandbagging by 25% on everyone!

The Smokey greys could improve greatly if they would do away with orange socks. Who wears orange socks. And I’d be ok if we only saw them once every couple years.

All black has a lot of potential. Would rather see that 1x/yr.

Wrong, orange socks go with anything.

Hooker is going to have to be part of the run game as well. If Florida is leaning on inexperienced LBs, we need to eat up the middle of the field any way possible and put pressure on them to know everything, all the time.

Now let's get the SEC out of Birmingham.

 

[Orange.]

Call me weird...but I'd love to see us incorporate Summit Blue into our uniforms for a game.

That's not weird, it's reprehensible.

 

[VolNash17]

I’m glad mehlen isn’t their coach anymore. His Quarterback option offense is a bad matchup for us. It would eat up the clock limiting our possessions. Just a bad matchup. Fella was a great schemer. Now Billy is trying to make AR into a pocket passer when the poor kid can’t read anything in front of him. Hopefully he throws 2-3 interceptions and gets sacked 3+ times Saturday

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Fumble risk. Hands work best, AC. Smh.

So is Wright

It would be alright for a couple carries.

 

[VolNash17]

Got my Florida - Vols and Bama - Vols tickets
Expensive as heck but a solid shot at both and sold out environment I couldn’t resist.

Charlotte and aTm are tough ones. I wouldn't touch that aTm Arky game, both teams have been really good and really bad at times.

I took those out and added a couple others I liked. One 10 leg and one 11 leg. One is +64500 the other is +130,000,

Yep they are obviously having a ton of issues with alignment, motions and all the eye candy they see which is not shocking to see from inexperienced players. USF killed them with that stuff. I even heard Tom Hart speak about it and he did their game against USF. He said their eye discipline left a lot to be desired from what he saw.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

FL ain’t regular FL.

Their starting QB has thrown 0 TDs and 4 INTs and 53% completion rate through 3 games.

If Vols don’t win this game at home, that would be bad. Like real bad. And I am a YUUUUGE Heupel + staff fan.

Even freakin Jarret Guarantano(aka Destroyer of Hope) pulled a couple of lucky rabbit games out of his arse.

Luck isn't quantifiable, but we have had tons of mediocre UF dudes over the years have games like that against us. That crazy is completely out of the coaches hands...along with refs doing what they always do to us in these big games.

I will believe that random luck and deliberate screw jobs are over when I actually see it happen.

I agree...we are the better team and staff, we could destroy them, but I just won't believe it until I see it.

 

[volbeast33]

And there it is..

What are you talking about?

Tillman 25% ew

Now let's get the SEC out of Birmingham.

I definitely thought it was already in Charlotte...

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Gut says Arkansas and vandy.

There's a part of me that says Charlotte too. But they're pretty bad.

Clemson at wake... If that was 10+, is be inclined to take wake.

Yeah, I just hate those giant spreads,even though it is Bama v Vandy.

A big part of that was that we had morons as our head coach which led to a lot of that “bad” luck.

me too

 

[Devo182]

Siap but this is pretty funny

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Looks like I'm gonna get fired for the 2nd time this week.

 

[orange parmejohn]

From reading UF's forums, it seems that he's somewhat hobbled and that Napier doesn't want him to run much because they have absolutely nothing behind him. So as bad/ineffective as he's been, his backup (which is really his backup's backup) is even worse.

IMO if Jack Miller wasn't injured, he would either start this game or replace Richardson early if he struggles.

I don’t relish in kids getting hurt but I don’t hate the possibility that #15 might be a touch slow.

A Florida beat writer just told Basilio that their star linebacker Miller will not play in our game and will miss the next game also. He said that's a massive loss as he was the heart of the defense.

So Basilio is the last to find out.

But give Basilio credit: he's out there doing whatever he can to diminish the win he doesn't want us to get so he can "told ya so."

I know the SEC Network is.

Because that makes sense haha.
