Heupel already hasn’t been shy in his previous statements about other teams “sensationalizing” the potential penalties on us to negative recruit against them. He’s mentioned it multiple times in this appearance too. Keep hitting back coach.

Heup’s not one for excuse making or playing victim. For him to keep bringing it up says to me that it was hurting recruiting, and maybe significantly.

When did Milton get veneers?

Breaking: Yankees end charity program to bring fans into the dugout.

Texas reporter just asked Heupel who has the better claim to be the “real UT”.

Heupel: “There’s only one real UT. There’s only one right shade of orange.”

Suck it, Texas

How long before Danny has to expand Neyland? Ticket demand is insane…

Think we can fit a fourth ring around the stadium? Maybe another stadium section around the south end zone and jumbotron... just keep building it higher

So question for anyone that might be a bit more football savvy than me - Heupel was asked during his Q&A whether he had any concern about the new clock stoppage rules and the whispers of a considered change to move the hashes in tighter at the college level. He dismissed the clock stoppage rules as something that everyone will deal with (I’d argue that we’re more prepared than most) but then he completely ignored the hash marks question. Almost like he didn’t want to give it any legitimacy as a discussion point. So my question is this: what’s the concern level if the NCAA was ever to change the hash marks to an NFL standard, or even just bring them in significantly? Would it be back to square one for the system? Is there any concern the move ever becomes a reality? I know the wider hash marks allows the defense to be stretched in a way that makes the system tick, and that’s often one of the biggest reason’s outlined for why the offense doesn’t work at the pro level. I’m curious if it would cripple us to the degree where Heupel would entirely have to revamp his scheme, or if it would just mean he’d have to evolve it.

If Kiffin wanted to go somewhere with deep NIL pockets he could have. Last year. Auburn absolutely would have taken him over Hue Freeze. He took the raise, so no complaining.

Ole Miss collective is pretty solid.

“Everyone in that building is concerned!” sounds panicky. You have unanimous concern? It’s concerning. So everybody from Heupel down to the omelette maker thinks Ellarbee isn’t pulling his weight…SOMEBODY somewhere is panicking.

We still arguing about OL Coaches huh? Well that figures.

Why would it not be better for OUR scheme? Lots of plays end up between the hashes anyway and we have thrived. Might even help by being able to be balanced with guys outside the numbers and away from support for DB on both sides. Harder to stretch the short side with current marks and forces us to go 3 wide on long side.

There is one drawback. If you are working anywhere north, like Knoxville, you have to travel Chapman Highway to get there. It is not awful, but it is not good, either.

I’m born and raised in Memphis. Nothing will phase me.

Thought Coach put that to bed with his recap of Elarbee’s 8 year association in the presser. Not something you feature with a coach on the hot seat.

We really beat Alabama… love this team. Heup is the man.

This was my first question. We already line up WR's almost to the sideline, seems like this would help.

 

[rjd970]

He keeps saying it publicly so I be it has been an issue to deal with. Also interesting that a week after it is over we immediately get a commitment from a 5-star WR.

Easier to cantilever some north Endzone off the hill. Wondered if that was why that Jumbotron was placed below the top. Some more party sections there would be cool.

To be clear, Ellarbee’s the best OL coach we’ve had since Fulmer. Been impressed with him since his time at Mizzou, when he took unheralded no-names and mauled our guys.

Lane Kiffin is transitioning into Michael J. Pollard and Im here for it
