Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[RudyVol]

Dang!...If Joe plays well next year, he will be a top 10 draft pick...maybe even #1. If he can just get his head out of the way in games the sky is the limit for him.

woof, hot take

I've always felt that Joey would move up. I'd be good with it if that's the case.

The way he's allowed Joey to be in front of Camera, going to CA to visit their prized QB recruit on his in home.

Yeah, letters are spelling on ze wall.

SAN BERNARDINO: Kangaroo rat habitat delays State Street extension project – Press Enterprise

This one always cracks me up…. Shut down a project and cost millions more over a d&mn rat….. no wonder we can’t get anything done in the US.

We are so stupid as a nation now. We are destroying ourself with this lunatic garbage.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I'm sure the Dodo bird agrees.

I would highly recommend we look at alternate methods of management. Perhaps Cane Toads? Maybe coyotes? Or boa constrictors? No no, asian wasps!!! No i got it...

Who in da fug preserves rats?

Apparently…… he hasn’t always felt this way. LOL

Jags have won 5 of their last 7 and 3 of their last 3. The reason he’s not resting his players has nothing to do with meaningless games, or a 6% wildcard chance, etc. in my opinion.. he’s not resting the starters because his team is getting hot at the right time. Just like bye weeks can be momentum killers, so could resting some key players.

Titans on the other hand have lost 5 in a row and have some injuries. No momentum to stop and a week or rest for some players could be very beneficial.

Both sides of the equation for both teams make sense, but Pederson can miss me with the “every game is important” speeches.

That article is 11 years old. Maybe we should do a follow up to see if the Kangaroo Rat kept its acreage?

I love nature and the great outdoors but I’m not going to experience even a minor inconvenience for the protection or welfare of a single species!

This is a rational and consistent viewpoint!

a colony of bacteria, perhaps Plague?

No it isn't...I said it was a possibility, not a probability. With his amazing freakish physical gifts...IF..he plays great and throws up big numbers to go along with those innate gifts...he will be a top draft pick.

Anybody with a brain should see that happening when guys like Levis and AR are predicted to go highly solely because of their physical gifts DESPITE playing like pureed all year, and neither of those guys are even close to Joe in raw talent....very few quarterbacks are.

There are logical AND rational, common sensical ways to sustain wildlife habitat. Waterways for example, in FL in areas where migratory birds lose habitat there are dollars for recreating or reestablishing those habitats. Migratory bird populations are crucial for many factors, one, is the almighty dollar in revenue.

Losing a ****ing rat. Isnt.

Think his players quit on him when he was campaigning for the Auburn job right when the schedule got harder.

Yep...next year may get ugly for him.

God forbid we can't build another road in this country.

San Bernardino kangaroo rat

This is an updated article….. it appears that the 33,000 acres are still reserved with 1,200 specifically for this rat…. Not sure if the project was able to be completed or not.

I agree…. All for protecting nature but their needs to be some common sense utilized.

Ramel Keyton on Nathan Leacock

“I feel like he’s a diamond in the rough,” Keyton told GoVols247 during his Orange Bowl interview session on Wednesday morning. “You can see the talent, but he’s got some things to clean up like his body movement and things like that. But he made some plays on Day One. It was like a go route and he jumped over somebody and made the catch. I feel like he’s going to be special. He’s like a diamond in the rough, for real.”

Keyton didn’t hide how impressed he was by Leacock’s early mossing of a defensive back.

“First catch, first throw, touchdown,” he said. “I’m like, ‘Dang.’ He’s going to be special.”

Any of you ever done a trip to Scotland? If so, any tour company recommendations, or other trip advice? I'm trying to surprise my wife for our 20th anniversary. I'm open to traveling at different times in 2023. TIA

Never have been. My dad lived there for 30 years until his passing last year. Any of the castles are a must.
Burnt Island
Roslyn Chapel outside Edinburgh
William Wallace’s Sword is at the National Wallace momument
St. Andrew’s Links is there which is the first golf course ever created.

Funny story about the links. When my dad first got to Scotland he worked on mowers and tractors for a local company and had to go to St Andrews Links to fix a tractor broke down on one of the holes. One of the gentlemen told him he needed someone to escort him out but my dad had been out there quite a bit and hurriedly said no worries. He starts walking and walks up a hill a couple holes away and he said two of the biggest men he’d ever seen in his life started to reach inside of their coats, like they were reaching for guns. He just dropped everything and turned and ran back down the hill, went back up front.

The guy told him the reason he needed an escort was because a Saudi Prince rented out the golf course. The guy told my dad “had those guys shot you they would have just finished their round, hopped on a plane went back to Saudi Arabia and never faced charges. You were lucky.”

He said I always went with someone after that.

That guy was beyond lucky. Can't believe he wasn't hit.
