Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXVII

Another stat that many are missing. We are 2-0.

Are you sure? I read VN, and I think I must have dreamed that 21-point victory the other day.

Read carefully. We never win, the other team just loses.
And every time we add to the streak of the other team losing, VN becomes more unbearable.

Maybe UT players should imagine all their opponents with Big 10 helmets on.

Tacklin fuel.

Literally handed us the game.

Where'd all the sunshine pumpers go? I miss those guys.

It was sloppy so it doesn't count. The NCAA is going to overturn the result even though the CMU W cannot be changed.

Wes Rucker has a few clips from the presser, but I haven't found a complete video. Patrick Brown has been pretty consistent at uploading full videos...

Thanks

Just the time of year.
Every fall, people who are usually making fun of kids in wheelchairs on Twitter, swamp the boards for football season.
Trash UT endlessly, give each other high fives for doing so and then move on to terrorizing senior citizens once the season ends.

Normal people post less because they don't feel like the endless arguments.

Yeah, if you don't give out participant trophies in this forum, you are a bad person.

Speaking of the CMU win over ok state. When I saw that the untimed play was awarded in error and it cost state the game, my very first thought was- now that's some tennessee sht right there

Nah, there's so many other reasons they are p€ckerheads, I wouldn't even notice that.

Guy on VQ heard Bob Welton speak recently. Some info from that post:

[1] Thinks this past Feb signing class will be the best they have signed

[2] Has own eval process and doesn't pay attention to recruiting rankings.

[3] Really likes Jack Jones and attitude he brings to line

[4] Thinks Weisman helped them with smaller-quicker DL and they wished they had made that move during App St and so against VT they went to it sooner.

[5] Eager to get Hall back for tackle. Thinks they have 2-3 guys who are in freshman class who will eventually be outstanding at OT.

[6] Tuttle before injury was perhaps their best defensive player. His fumble recovery showed why he will be a 1st round pick.

[7] Alexis Johnson will wow people once he gets into shape. Said to watch for him to impress.

[8] Someone commented on the 5 stars who are in state but committing elsewhere and are we still in mix and Weldon of course said he couldn't comment but to stay tuned.

[9] Need and want to get ball to Kamara more.

[10] Thinks Larry Scott is real deal and will be a head coach soon. Hopes they can keep him a few years but knows right oppty will happen eventually for him.

[11] Marvels at Shoop's relationships with players and his adjustments.

[12] McKenzie doing well but needs to play lower. Says they are really working on that.

[13] Thinks Ohio's offense is good and will be a challenge but that defense not nearly as good as Appy St. But we'd better be ready to play.

[14] Almost forgot, said first time and first play he saw Tuttle play he lined up on opposite side of where QB ran but that Shy chased QB down across field for 2 yd gain. Said it was a wow moment. Said the opposing QB was Emmanuel Moseley.

[15] He was asked about Sherrion Jones and the comments on the Bristol broadcast. He said Jones is always talking an was so amped all the time that "he'd make even coffee nervous."

For those who have not seen the Tuttle high school play mentioned in the Welton a quote, it's super impressive

Constructive criticism isn't demeaning the results.

Psssh, that's irrelevant right now. Can we please get back to discussing our offensive woes...you know, the same offense that torched Florida, Georgia, and Northwestern last year?

Being serious, I'm frustrated with our offense, too. I hate the lack of creativity. However, I'm not a coach nor have I ever been one. I do know that this offense can move the ball on the ground very very well, when we let Dobbs run the zone read the way it should be run. If we would let him run it completely without handcuffs, then we can beat anyone, even with the boring scheme and play calling we run.

One of those kind of petty breakdown rankings of like stance, tackling, etc. (kind of like madden) had Tuttle as a 10 for pursuit. Makes sense now

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

oh great

One more thing...where is bringing the slot man in motion and snapping it just before he gets to the QB, so that he's a 3rd option to get the ball on the read? I would wear that play out. We usually move the ball extremely well when we run that.

Thanks

"Tennessee WR Josh Smith was seen on crutches with an apparent ankle injury, per @JimmyHyams. He'll likely be out vs. Ohio."

"Smith's injury will likely mean more playing time for freshman WR Tyler Byrd, who's been impressive since arriving on campus."

But is his girlfriend ok?

I love constructive criticism. Too many people forget the constructive part.
