Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[Jackcrevol]

Appreciate it. Spent like 7k to give her a shot but just wasn't meant to be. Know why I got drunk but not really because here I am in the same situation just feel a lot worse for the wear dealing with it now

The unfortunate thing about pet ownership is that inevitability. It isnt fun.

 

[Wickman]

As Hannibal Smith would say “God I love it when a plan comes together”!

So what’s the plan?

 

[TheRain]

This is a good one.

 

[bignewt]

This is a good one.

One of the absolute best.

TN leads for:

5️ WR Mike Matthews
4️Edge Danny Okoye
4️WR Amari Jefferson( He is a 4 star)
4️ RB Brayden Russell
3️OL Ronan O’Connell
5️ Edge Jordan Ross ( conflicting reports but he told Wiltfong we lead before his visit)
4️OT Bennett Warren
4️ WR Braylon Staley
4️LB Edwin Spillman
5️DL Kamarion Franklin.
4️ OL William Satterwhite is 50:50.

TN is in a really good spot for all these. A few have already committed just not publicly. Incredible list.

Thought experiment, if we land all those guys then the makeup of the class would be:
5* - 3
4* - 16
3* - 6

QB - 1
WR - 3
RB - 2
OL - 6
TE - 1
S - 1
CB - 3
DL - 4
LB - 2
Edge - 2

Seems we've had an influx of people with info over these last few months. I mean, if they legit, I'm grateful as hell. Idk, though...especially a couple of em.

I've noticed that too but all it will take for some of them is getting lit up when, not if, one of their predictions goes belly up.

Not everyone is up for the abuse that's incoming!

Me this morning between checking VN for commits!

Researching tarot card readings for the big novel I'm writing. Maybe I'll do a few and see who we will get. Be about as reliable.

TE - 1
S - 1
CB - 3
DL - 4
LB - 2
Edge - 2

That looks like a top 5 class. Would also push us up the blue chip ratio standings quite a bit.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Correct: It is MORE interesting now, waaay moreso than professional minor league ball.

Not really. Turning over a brand new team every season. Watching these kids just be mercenaries to whatever contracts they sign. It's becoming way less interesting.

I don’t see why people get so worked up about it…. I love info and want people to bring info to the board…. I choose who I feel I can trust and I understand that sometimes kids lie to everyone.

I’ve been to several art shows with tarot readers. I’ve never done one myself, but I’ve watched them. The worst at their craft believe their own bs, but the best are like a combination of master storytellers and Sherlock Holmes. They read clues in the participants and weave a fantastic narrative of the future with just enough mystery and hope to leave the participant wanting more. I’d be willing to bet they often become self-fulfilling prophecies for the participants.
Don’t underestimate the good ones, and I am honestly looking forward to the book.

QB - 1
WR - 3
RB - 2
OL - 6
TE - 1
S - 1
CB - 3
DL - 4
LB - 2
Edge - 2

We'll need more than 1 TE in this class.

 

[Dooby15]

QB: Nico Iamaleava
RB: Cam Seldon / Peyton Lewis
WR: Nathan Leacock / Ryan Wingo/ Mike Matthews
TE: Ethan Davis / Jonathan Echols
OL - Sham Umarov/ Ronan O’Connell/ William Satterwhite/ Max Anderson/ Bennett Warren


This is the dream one day

 

[volinbama256]

Don’t know how accurate this is

hey didn't someone post several days ago on current recruiting rankings/commitments that TN is like #1 or #2 currently for 2024 and in the top 5 right now for 2025?

 

[SmokinBob]

Pretty drunk because I just put my dog down so I'll probably have a new screen name after i answer if there's there's any replies but I've been busy running her back and forth to the vet and overnight vets for the last couple weeks and haven't been able to keep up with recruiting. I know about the commits but is anything trending towards us?

I’m so sorry…

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

You spelled fan atic wrong, you dummy.

Lol..so I did..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I lean towards it being the right call.

Of course you do

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Yes, yes, yes…
Well, maybe not rot, but not have one more moment of joy playing at the other school.

That is what I mean by "rot"..I hope they suck and are miserable.

Yes its an intricate, big stakes reading I'm going to have to put to paper that will drive the final act. I have decide what the reading is, how prophetic I want it to be, how clear, etc. I need to read up more on the major arcane and the definitions of each card, how they are drawn, right side up, etc. It's something I have been avoiding by writing around it. I'm at a point where I could just do a cliffhanger and jump to another storyline and come back to it. Or I could just sack up and power through and see how it plays out. First draft, anyway.

[volbeast33]

Of course you do

He moved his back leg and looked like he reset his stance before stepping off…I don’t think you can fault either side since so many people see it both ways.

Heart felt sympathies for the loss of your obviously beloved pet.

Remember the great memories and those memories live on and make us smile because we had that bond.
