Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[Vol423]

Penn State fans/beat writers, and national CFB media have been talking about this Penn State team for two years like it will be Franklin's best team that he's had there.

Based on what exactly? They sucked (didn't beat anyone of any consequence) last year. Since they're ranked below both Ohio State and Michigan, that seems to imply that they won't beat anyone of any consequence this year either.

Looks like Heupel before his metabolism slowed down!

This should serve Alabama really well. Their offense will look fine until they play any SEC team. Then they'll be exposed as a pretender.

 

[Glitch]

What? There's still a wheel there.

Try to keep up youngin’

I needed to poop but I fell in. I pooped anyway.

LOL. Tommy Rees. Mediocre as you can get for a coordinator

6.2 YPP 5.9 and 5.9. Not great. He’ll have more talent at Bama obviously but I’m not nervous of them anymore

 

[Weezer]

Has Bama hired a new DC yet?

Has Bama hired a new DC yet?

Apparently not: Sources: Bama candidate Grantham joins Saints

We missed a great opportunity.

Just a lot of hype, really.

I don't have a strong opinion about Penn State in 2023, I am just telling you what I have heard and read going back to last offseason. In an effort to answer your question, as opposed to justifying a position that I don't hold, I have done some Googles.



> everyone is putting all of their eggs in the Drew Allar basket, essentially
> their 2022 recruiting class was ranked 6th
> national guys are obsessed with the RBs
> they added a transfer WR from Kent State that has 2,139 yards in 2 seasons
> they will have a veteran OL
> they won 11 games last year
> they won the Rose Bowl last year
> they finished in the top 10
> both coordinators return
> bye week before Ohio State
> Michigan late in the season at home

So what this is saying is that Tennessee vs UTSA will be a top 25 matchup

The luster has came off lol

The luster has came off lol

oh they're flustered. very good, very good

 

[OrangenSC]

Did they play?

Wait, you've been helping coach them and you don't know when they play? Shame.

 

[SSVol]

That would honestly explain a lot.

Everyone knows and says that….. without looking….. tell me what each of the teams you mentioned did during the regular season…. Nobody knows or truly cares but they remember their memorable runs to the final four…. It is the reason why Calipari is on the hot seat at Kentucky and why Barnes was fired at Texas…. Here are some articles about Barnes lack of tourney success.
Rick Barnes' loss shows no one blows it in March like Tennessee coach

Stat Guy: Underachievement in the NCAA Tournament characterize Rick Barnes’ coaching career

Well, that's precisely what I said. They don't remember them as great teams, because they weren't, in spite of those runs. They just remember their runs. March MADNESS.
