Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXVI

[Tennessee Golfer]

That game is gonna be so awesome.

Bring your high powered binoculars.

1% better?

Every day.

Those end zone seats may pose a small problem. Wonder how much they are going for.

Unbelievable, I know. Typically if a player isn't an All-American in year 1 they're a bust but apparently they can improve. Learn something new everyday.

I've long thought that the NFL skews some fans' perspective of college players. Meaning, they view recruiting commitments as offseason free agent signings and scream bust when the players don't immediately live up to the hype. They forgot watching college football is like watching minor league baseball. The players need time to develop.

I remember growing up in Greenville SC and watching chipper jones when he played for the G-ville braves. He was a scrawny speedster with zero power and made about 30 errors at shortstop. He turned out fine once he developed...

VQ has said many times that O'Brien and Vickers have looked better than ever this fall camp. It's almost like they've gotten better each year. Crazy, I know.

I'm excited about having a RS senior starting at DT. Man has been through wars. Can't replicate that experience without the experience.

Will be interesting to see if Butcher gets on the field this season at DT. I'm glad he made the move.

They're not going for anything----they're already gone.

Yeah. Wonder how far behind he is on the depth chart.

He could excel as a 3 technique.

Watching those giant screens most likely.

I'd say you're right. He will hit it at least once but probably more.

Look at the goal post for reference. That thing is way up there (twss). I don't think a punter can hit it

It's probably ho higher up than the one in the Cowboys stadium & it's been hit multiple times.

 

[InVOLuntary]

I know I was being a douchenerd u dirty son of a.... Lol

Keep this in mind, you'll have to slow down below the speed of light in order for the light to catch you so you can see yourself. :loco:

 

[Fowdep]

I believe I read that it is higher than the minimum height required by the NFL.

Cowboys stadium has a roof. There's no way that stadium is as high up as BMS. Look at the picture, the screen is almost level with the top of the stands. I could be wrong but it looks like a picture that the angle is messing with everyone.

We recently received our tickets, and it is about the only time I think I am thrilled to be on row 1. Usually, it's not a good place to sit.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Yeah, I'm thinking I may have bought a ticket to be a part of history, yet will end up watching the game on the largest screen ever.

It really is hard to tell from that photo but the screen does look kind of low.

Tony Romo broke a bone in his back... Good luck Dak!

I think that's it for Tony. Too much is too much.

 

[tonybologna]

I think that's it for Tony. Too much is too much.

I think so too even though I hate it for him. He's going on 37 now & his body just can't handle any punishment anymore from all the injuries.

I think he's done & wouldn't be surprised to see him retire after this season is over whether he makes it back or not.
