Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[avolation]

If Al Wilson was on our defense I would be way more optimistic. I’m optimistic but damn

I think Arion Carter could be Al-like. I imagine he’ll get a decent number of snaps this year.

And we don't do bidding wars.

That’s the issue when people say “just go to the portal” yeah well apparently Tennessee doesn’t get deep into bidding wars in which 95% of these top of the line guys are involved in when they put their name out there into the portal. Gotta hit most of it through recruiting

I am saying..pretty f'n clearly...that Nebraska did it to a industrial staff-led level...it was ridiculous.

Those other teams put multitudes of guys in the league that dominated after college was over...Cornroiders...not so much, ESPECIALLY when you saw what they looked and played like when at Nebraska.


You can worship at the Nebraska-Tom Osborne altar if you want...I will never.

I'm not arguing about this anymore...I don't give a crap what you think.

Then shut up about it.

My original post, responding to NOT McGill...

Right on.
What I said was, they're the greatest I've ever seen. 2001 Miami was no doubt more talented, it's not even close; with that said, what I saw...Miami did not SLAUGHTER like Nebraska did. Miami was great, and dominated, no argument here, whatsoever..but, that Nebraska team was just different. Even with as much talent as that Miami team had, it truly felt like that Nebraska team was the very definition of "men among boys". Not only did they dominate, do whatever they wanted to do, and make no mistake, they did WHATEVER they felt like doing...they pillaged and plundered. Yeah, Frazier only threw for 1400 yds, but he threw for 17 TDs and 4 Ints. Not today's numbers, no; but, still production through the air. Yet, it wouldn't have mattered if they NEVER threw a single pass, whenever you're running for 400 a game...
And everyone knew what was coming, put 8,9,10 in the box...still, nowhere to even close to slowing it down, just a bit. It's pure opinion, and we'll never know...but, I truly believe I've NEVER seen a defense that could stop them, not before, not since.

And, that's just the offense. The defense is consistently brought up, within the first 4 or 5 defenses mentioned, as the greatest ever.

Again, Miami was great, and may be the GOAT...they are a great argument, no question!!; but, as I said, what I saw, what I felt...while watching that Nebraska team...it went past domination...only other way I can describe is, like 8th Century Vikings...pillaged and plundered. I never felt that way about Miami, or anyone else, including some of these Bama teams, 19 LSU, any of them. 1995 Nebraska looked and felt criminal.

You responding to me...

Cornroiders

Then i responded to someone else, again, NOT McGill.

Yet, here you come...

If every program roided up like the 90s Cornroiders did....they wouldn't have been "men amongst boys"

Look at how crappy their players all turned out to be at the next level...it was like their "talent" just disappeared once they had to start taking tests in the NFL...it was amazing.


I truly believe they were the most juiced up team in history.

After the first time you decided to put your two cents in, I didn't even acknowledge you; then you were compelled to do it again, poke me...now you don't give a crap what I think, and don't want to argue?? Typical, McGill. Fire off in other people's conversations...then do, 1: use emoji's to speak, like some kind of animal, because you have no concept of civil debate 2: eventually get your feelings hurt, to where you do 1 of 2 other things, 1: block people using this , or 2: say, "I'm not arguing about it", whenever, in fact, you more than likely started said argument, and ending with, "I don't give a crap" or "". Safe bet, everytime.

If it’s a major concern for the staff they prob will. Pretty sure KN said we basically did for Campbell to help OL.

Sorry, chief. I guess I'm ready for kickoff, tired of waiting, and just went tilt on a restaurant chain. My bad.

Classic movie...............Very underrated comedy.

"I want my $2."

If you have never heard Gen Neylands voice. Here you go

Closing in! Friday means Andy Kelly days until kickoff!

Tennessee is the bid that starts the war though. We have an amount we will give and that’s it but most people want Tennessee interested bc of the splash they made with the supposed Nico NIL contract.

 

[SweetasSoda]

We claiming Vols didn’t cheat on the 90s?

Does that make it okay?

 

[SweetasSoda]

If you have never heard Gen Neylands voice. Here you go

Thank you! I had never heard him.

Really excited about the reports about him from camp.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Hilarious!!!

My neighbor is Croatian. I’ll ask him for advice re Dubrovnik.

Oh that’s awesome thank you! That’s just where our departing flight is so if there’s any places near to there.

 

[Volsdeep4]

Where was the elk hunt going to be?

Colorado. We are going to New Mexico next year.

 

[Volsdeep4]

You're likely already aware of this, but pickpockets are notoriously bad in Rome.

I was not. Thank you for the heads up

 

[Volsdeep4]

My daughter and I were in Rome last November. I highly recommend Vatican City and St Peter’s Basilica. We took a small group tour (Viator) simply because you can skip the lines. It was well worth it. We enjoyed it more than any other tourist site in Rome.

Awesome that is great information. Any restaurants or sites you recommend?
