Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[Ulysees E. McGill]

So UF had 5 turnovers, -2 rushing yards with 4 minutes to go in the 4th and it was a tie game?????

I got two words for you...Phil Fulmer.

At this rate Joe Milton may replace Hooker as my favorite Tennessee QB that I can remember watching

If he does, then 2023 would’ve been an even better ride

I remember that game, Jimmy Streater is one of my all-time favorite QBs, just because he was my first and he could scramble and tuck it in and run. I was 8, also

Saturday mornings were work days for me. I had to dust the entire house before I could watch cartoons. Mom would inspect my work too.

Ditto!!!

National Champions since 2015 and their roster ranking for that season per 247
2015) Alabama 1st
2016) Clemson 9th
2017) Alabama 1st
2018) Clemson 6th
2019) LSU 5th
2020) Alabama 2nd
2021) Georgia 2nd
2022) Georgia 2nd
Tennessee cracking the top 10 in recruiting back to back years is huge. We have a great staff developing players. Combined with top 10 roster a year or two down the line and the Vols have a shot at a National Championship

Agree. But this should be proof for those who think recruiting rankings don’t matter. They do. Because they are tied to success. Now some like to bring up Clemson. Well basic statistics tells us that there will always be outliers. Exceptions to the rule and that’s what Clemson was. We can’t hang our hat on being another outlier. To win NC you have to be top 5 recruiting every year.

I think “marijuanas” discourse might be my favorite running joke here. That or Moran.

Sir, death by using irresponsible amounts of marijuanas is no laughing matter. Have you ever been way too high?

Well I never have and you don't wanna be!

 

[gainesvol82]

I don't have the butt for mom jeans. They would look ridiculous on me.

Back in @DeepPurpleFloyd 's day the mom Jean's had butts that resembled 2 long flapjacks stuffed into those mom jeans and dammit they liked 'em because that was all they had!

 

[gainesvol82]

I have a short torso. Basically my shoulders and hips are right next to each other.

@bignewt driving past you

Titans has to be the dumbest organization in the NFL

Titans QB Will Levis signs rookie contract; team's entire 2023 draft class now under contract

No such thing as too high. Just high enough.

Georgia may be interested in this

I’ve heard Georgia is also putting up sensors in their interstate and it is somehow going to be able to tell if you have a fun in your hand. It’s going to be able to send you a ticket and everything

Not even going to guess what "fun in your hand" is code for, but it sounds dirty.

Yeah, I wouldn’t worry as much about the ticket as I would the embarrassment from getting caught on camera while driving with fun in my hand.
If you don’t pay, do they send the video to your mom?

So right now in Phoenix the pavement is about 180 degrees. Hospitals are treating people for 3rd degree burns just from tripping and falling on the pavement. I think we're learning a hard lesson about building cities in the desert.

ETA: (The same thing is happening in Vegas as well)

Heard people in Vegas are standing around campfires to cool down.

2006 against Cal.

Very good day!

My 1st game attending was in 1978 or '79. Can't remember. I believe it was either against Georgia Tech or Vandy. Believe I was 18. But was a diehard fan waaaay before that from just listening to Ward and Anderson on the radio while outside doing chores. Eventually was able to attend 56 games in person before I ever saw them lose. Will never forget that game. It was a Sat. night game against Duke coached by Spurrier.
