Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXIX

Coaches?

Women?

keeping the suspense.

Stanford is their only "bad loss", also lost to Bama and Utah.

They are a different team with Sam Darnold at QB now. Max Browne wasn't getting it done. They have talent everywhere. They're on a roll. Think they're ranked right where they should be.

They don't have a good win. They don't have a good SOS. Not enough to justify a top-25 ranking with a 6-3 record. There are more deserving 3-loss teams.

Any chance we get rid of Sunseri 2.0 this year?

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Saw this during the LSU/Arky game:

Best Records vs SEC teams over the last 16 games:

Bama 16-0
Tennessee 12-4
Arkansas 12-4

Fahr Butch!

Surely you aren't talking about Shoop..

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Surely you aren't talking about Shoop..

Unbelievable the way people are acting about Shoop when he's playing almost all back ups on defense, some even 4th and 5th stringers. Crazy. We've seen what's shoop can do at Penn State and Vandy, it's the injuries people, come on

 

[BigOrangeVols]

Gutsy call by Iowa on 4th and goal. Paid off.

Sunseri did pretty well under Saban.

I mentioned a kid going on a visit today that was at our house last week. Kid texted Jr and is crazy about UT. Unfortunately for him I don't see any chance of him getting an offer but it's really cool to see kids like him get some recognition.

Did you just do the mental gymnastics involved that compared James Franklin to Nick Saban?

Unless you're talking about covering up for their players after committing horrible crimes...in that case, I agree completely.

 

[The Breakerboy]

Was great to have Sutton and Foreman on the same field. CBs that will actually play the ball. Now time to get Warrior on the field BUTCH JONES!!!!

I am afraid he is. lol Our fan base sometimes.

Shoop deserves a pass, no doubt. But IMO, he tries to do too much with too little. He knows the personnel he's working with. He tries to get too cute, and guys (unfamiliar with the system) get out of position.

I hope Shoop is able to make a change or two to assistants he wants this off-season. Tackling has been unimpressive as well as CBs not getting off blocks.

Tackling has been BAD. I don't understand why we don't bring guys down consistently on first contact.

They have a good win (no. 12 Colorado). Reeled off 5 straight wins.

Who are the more deserving 3 loss teams? LSU/Arkansas/us? Don't think so.

They both run good defenses? Doesn't matter who's at coordinator.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Enjoyed Dobbs play a lot today

Was expecting that most of the year, especially USC

 

[Ron Swanson]

Sunseri did pretty well under Saban.

As the LB coach.

 

[chavisut]

Sunseri did pretty well under Saban.

As a position coach.

Last year with Shoop they were #1 in pretty much every defensive category in the B1G. This year they are middle of the pack in scoring and total D.

Seems like the DC matters a bit for him.

 

[theutvolunteers]

Sunseri did pretty well under Saban.

What the actual ****

 

[volatil]

As a position coach.

With several All Pro LBs on the roster

 

[85SugarVol]

No one in our secondary hits

Nigel Warrior 😎😎😎😎😎

 

[volinbama256]

Secondary was horrible again today and has been all year... hope we get someone else to develop these kids... not a single one is getting better... Sutton showed his rust, got burned several times today... TK doesn't look himself...

Abernathy whiffed in the hole again today...
