Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[BigSteve09]

First world series win since 2001. Wow.

Could not be happier for the team and program. I hoped for at least one W.

Now lets get greedy.

Chase is going to make a lot of money after next season. A lot.

Don't let them VOLS get hot

Next game Wednesday?

Tomorrow against whoever loses tonight

Such a wonderful thing having TV

7pm tomorrow

Omaha win. Feels good.

Big win by the Vols baby. 22 years in the making.

I want LSU minus Skeens next.

 

[Vol423]

Ok. . . your starter plays 7 innings then is relieved. . . how long does he need to rest before you should play him again?

Lol. That tells you nothing. How many pitches did he throw? Theoretically, he could have thrown as few as 21 pitches.

Wasnt that also the last time we beat florida at the swamp?

Saban apparently wants an invitation to the playoffs based off recruiting rankings. You didn't get in because you got your ass kicked on the field.

yup.
You don't field the playoff based on the being odds, dummy.

I don't disagree I want revenge but would it be in our favor to get wake forest in game three and play lsu for four and five with their bullpen? Wake forest is the only bullpen to rival ours.

I bet skenes pitches against us.It just depends on how effective he will be.

No, we beat them in 2003, but it was the first time in more than 20 years that we had.

I think burns could give us 30-ish pitches Tuesday or Wednesday if the situation comes up. I'd obviously like to see him get some rest.

But I think it's safe to say there's some still in the tank.

The problem is that is LSU wins they get an extra days rest which means that Skeens might be available for the 5th game.

Fun win today!

That Dickey at bat in the 5th was special - that dude is a great hitter

I think you mean Rodney G but yes

 

[Jimmy Football]

Frank, there is an ad banner displaying “Good Luck, Tigers,” (referring to the LSU Tigers) at the top of Volnation. I normally don’t question your ad decisions, but that one I can’t abide.

My favorite player on the team.

My favorite player on the team.

He’s probably mine as well - I enjoy watching him hit. Always has a smart approach and doesn’t give away at bats.

Recap of the game today.

 

[gainesvol82]

If you haven’t already, you should put a version of this down on paper and give to your children when you think time is right. They may know most of it already but I bet they’d still appreciate it. It’s called an “ethical will”, Google it if you’ve never heard of that.

Appreciate all your views and efforts. Sound like a fine person, of incredibly sound mind and perspective. Happy Father’s Day!

Thank you very much for your kind words, sir and that is a very good idea. Just growing up to be a normal person (mostly) was an achievement even though I share some similarities as a younger man with @Ulysees E. McGill ,
just less angry overall, lol. I'm glad that I was able to be better for my kids....they definitely make me proud.

One positive of my childhood was the ability to overlook a lot of people's faults and be patient with them. I think that is a good thing for all parents or mentors. Someone has to be a real a-hole to get me truly angry. Hope you and your family had a great Father's Day.

Lol, I saw how long it was after posting and thought the same thing. Definitely TL;DR.

I think I topped @ChattaTNVol for long winded post of the month. What do I win? Oh yeah....sarcastic gifs.
