Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[rocktopper16]

Guys, if you are leaving town this week make sure all exposed pipes are covered and if you have fur babies bring them in. There’s a strong possibility we see wind chills in the negative teens.

I wasn’t kidding, it’s going to get cold and get cold fast. We will likely see high wind gust that could cause power outages throughout the area.

Wish Hyatt had balls that big.

Don’t beat Bama without his performance. How quick we forget.

Born at 8:07am. We have a new Vol boys.

Congratulations brother

@ 12.20 they talk about Nico. They have him ranked @ #32. These guys don't even know how to pronounce his name. It's pretty obvious they haven't really watched him. Who does their rankings? I'm firing whoever it is.

If he had signed with Bama , they would have him #1 and saying that he is the best high school QB they have ever seen.

Did they change that recently? I thought they were only doing disability policies that kicked in if they had a career-ending injury.

I saw an interview that said those Alabama players were covered with insurance if they dropped to a certain level….. tried to search to find that interview and more details…. Couldn’t find it but did find this article from 2020…. Alabama chose not to get that insurance on Tua and the media criticized Alabama for it…. Here is an article from 2020 saying that Alabama had the option to get it but chose not too bc sometimes it was difficult to collect… Chance Warmack got a similar insurance policy after joining the NFL and it paid out over 3 million.

How Alabama approaches player insurance policies

They have Jaden Rashada ranked above Nico? Good thing I don’t pay attention to their rankings.

Not the first time I’ve been called that…

First time by a guy (to my knowledge)

It was a question, not a statement. And, if I ever see your ass in person, something has gone horribly, horribly wrong for both of us.

This defensive recruiting class, especially the DL, is awesome

Congratulations. Born on Early Signing Day!! Definitely a good sign.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Hehehe. . .

Is this the least amount of hope since Meyer?

Hahaha. . .

Graham Mertz CB

Hohoho. . .

 

[LA Vol]

Loss of Value insurance is generally for players projected as very high draft picks. Disability with an LOV rider probably wouldn't have swayed Young or Anderson if they weren't inclined to play. UT's situation was different. Hooker and Tillman were already injured and not predicted to be high picks. Hyatt decided not to play.

 

[drvenner]

Any info on Ajani Cornelius ?
Vols, buckeyes or other?

I really wanted him to come so that we could all call him Yukon.

 

[drvenner]

Who all is still outstanding? Davis and Keith?

All of our players are outstanding. Don't start to go all NegaVol on us now.

fun toys for Heupel, and big boys on the line that will only get better by playing the beastly DL in practice

 

[GVol1966]

They don't go there to play school

No that’s Ohio st.

Former Alabama RB explains why Tide players should not opt out of Sugar Bowl
here is a new article where former Alabama running back Bo Scarborough says that the players should play bc Alabama has insurance that guarantees the players are still paid at their anticipated draft slot.

Oregon having a day

Guess we know where DJ is transferring. That has not been announced yet, or did I miss it?

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Florida is done. They're in the "maybe Billy can find Hidden Gems" mode of denial.

 

[VolInDayton]

Is there another team in the nation that has as much arm talent as Tennessee?

 

[Jackcrevol]

Had this since I was a kid. Need to get it in a safe area.

I would say most players want to play but are worried about the injury consequences….. When does that type of insurance have to be purchased? Hyatt wasn’t considered a top draft pick until well into the season.

 

[GVol1966]

Ruiz smearing money all over everything is a blessing and a curse

please Miami or Colorado, and not Alabama or Florida

Translation. We got new offers and think we can get more $$$$.
