Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

I love the way Weigel's supports our team. And their marketing is always solid. Some of the tweets are really funny. Just wanted to give them a nod.

TBH, you'd never know from their twitter and ad campaigns that they were a local business. Whoever is behind their marketing and PR is that good. Then again, we are home to some talented people. My bestie from HS has directed super bowl ads and Cas Walker might've been the finest pitchman the world's never heard of so it's not like we don't have home grown talent.

I don’t see how the OL could be such a concern. Miami transfer locked down LT early in fall practice over last year’s starting LT platoon. One of those guys will be starting RT. Spraggins and Mays both have tons of experience. Surely one guy on the roster is serviceable at LG.

Last season our fans (with VQ’s enabling) were “concerned” about the OL, WRs outside of Tillman and all of our RBs (not a SEC level in the lot). And of course the entire defense. The D repped in certain areas they’d been horrid at the previous season, like QB containment and run defense. We’re all aware of their deficiencies in pass defense, but most big plays weren’t the result of being nowhere close to the receiver…but wrapping up. We have a two season sample size and there’s been considerable improvement from the previous year…every year. Riding that until it’s proven a faulty ride.

Shush...that is heresy..

Let’s lose sleep til we pass out.

Finish with two of Ross/Okoye/Fountain, Wingo, and Seaton/Navarro and that’s an amazing class.

Maybe get a transfer DT.

It always amazed me how my husband could be friends with some guy for years, and really know very much about him with women , we know all of the secrets and where the bodies are buried

I looked him up because I had no clue who he was. Dude is an Oklahoma water carrier who no doubt believed Bob when he said the championship was all him but the fails were all Heupel.

Sports media: axe-grinders all the way down.

feels like this will be close to reality if not exactly how we end up. Would not be surprised to see a HS DT target emerge this season either. Couple kids already on our radar.

Woodstock Music Festival begins in Bethel, New York...............

Now there's unique and fun culture, why people keep going back to that time in music.

Know when festivals died off? The 80s through late 90s.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Not sure I want an answer, but what did you catch in the "free hugs" tunnel?

The "uncleanable"

 

[Devo182]

Milton took a few sacks vs Clemson because he didn’t run when he should have. He could even throw it away but just held on too long. It can improve but definitely a concern.

Always has been his biggest concern and, according to recent scrimmages, still is. Going to have to drill into his head a clock and know when to go into fight of flight mode.

 

[therickbol]

LG is obviously unsettled. Expected Mincey to have RT on lockdown. Not sure if he’s working at LT because of lack of depth or because no one is solidly winning the RT job.

Unfortunately there are some "people" involved that are making that situation messier than it needs to be. He is best at RT. Our best OL has him at RT. In the NFL, LT's get the bigger paychecks. "People" are involved pushing an agenda that is complicating the situation. Hopefully he comes around and puts his heart into doing what is not only best for our offense but also best for him. Embrace being a RT.

I miss OzzFest

 

[Devo182]

I’m going to bet between the second scrimmage and Virginia there will be reports of the OL “coming together” and “making progress”.

To this point the coaches have been trying different combinations, but after the next scrimmage they’ll turn to Week 1 prep and have a more settled rotation, which will lead to continuity.

Also believe this.

We will progress. Maybe not at the same level as last year, due to less raw talent, but this staff has proven themselves.

 

[Devo182]

I miss OzzFest

Dang, you're a cool guy Peay. Did he swallow any bat heads?

Ozz started about the same as Bonnaroo and Coachella. Big revival years in the late 90s for sure, which led to the current state of being in the Golden Era. Also saw their last time out their secondary HL was Prophets of Rage. Nice lineup.

Got to see Marilyn Manson one year…..Velvet Revolver another.

Always a solid lineup

I watched a documentary on Ozzy on Hulu Ozzfest was a response to not getting on the Lallapalooza lineup and Sharon was like ‘F you’ and Ozzfest was born
