Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[Weezer]

Someone talk to me about this pirate show in pigeon forge. Will it shiver me timbers?

I say ditch it and go to Applebee's.

I did the structural engineering for it. That's all I know about it. I also did Biblical Times and the fallen over building (beyond the lens). Never been to them either.

I had never heard of Grand Canyon U. until they beat Tennessee baseball - now I see them in my basketball bracket. It’s the year of Grand Canyon! Do they have any 98 year old nuns tucked away on their campus? If so, watch out

Funny enough, Bryce Drew is their coach

 

[VolNash17]

I’d love Tennessee to win it all, but I know that’s about impossible at this point

Barring that, my primary rooting interest is to make sure Bama doesn’t win a title

if you look in the mirror and say shiver me timbers 3 times, Mike Leach will tell you a story. RIP.

That is not settling. That is shrinking. I was 6'2 in college and 65 years latter I am 6'0; only 2 inches shorter.

Respect for being 85 and posting in here with all of us yahoos.

Yuck. Team USA better wake up. I’m one of 5 Americans that knows about and really likes this tournament. This one is feeling like the ones prior to 2017, where Team USA is kind of sleep walking into it. They have the energy of a bunch of guys in their third week of spring training, while the other teams are playing with pride. They also should have spent more time recruiting pitchers.

Hard to get pitchers to commit to something like this with how conservative teams have become with arms these days. The staff is still stocked with a lot of great bullpen arms. No excuse to get beatdown my Mexico.

Have you been?

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

That’s big news for Kelly.

 

[TheRain]

Have you been?

No I haven't.

 

[volsfan_17]

Have you been?

I've been. It's okay. Lot of diving. My family preferred Stampede vs this one. Food is the same in both places if I recall correctly.

No excuse to get beatdown my Mexico.

I watched the first few innings (hate the late starts) and that crowd was very pro-Mexico. The US fans were largely treating it like an exhibition (with some exceptions) while the Mexican fans were screaming for our destruction.

I think delaying this tournament set USA back. They had this figured out by 2017, and that team played with urgency and humility from the opening bell. This one really does look like the old ones.

We will see how they fair against Canada and Colombia. They are probably wishing they’d laid the wood to Great Britain. Only beating a team that bad 6-2 was a big missed opportunity. I think the Tennessee Vols could put have put 20 on Great Britain.

The pitching is bad

This is the first year that I think I have to pick against Tennessee to improve my chances of winning the bracket. It's not fun, but this basketball team peaked earlier and haven't played their best basketball in awhile.

RJ Young ranks the Vols 5th and Bama 6th. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ms. Jackson-- that NIL must have been amazing--she was destined early first round.
