'24 Recruiting Forum: Official Ohio State Pre-game/Game Thread

[Volnut]

Why are they running plays with Nico up the middle to risk injury in a lost-cause game?

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Count on you to be negative Nancy. Let’s bring back the last 15 years.

Heupel should get all the praise for getting us out of being a shithole program.

But we are far, far away from actually competing for a title

 

[LotteryPick]

I’m honestly done with Heupel’s offense. It is a gimmick and now that teams have talent and coaching to know how to stop it then the lipstick will come off the pig.

If your RT get blown up every play and your WR’s can’t separate, no offense is going to work.

 

[MarcoVol]

What records it break this year?

D Samp broke the single season rush TD record

 

[Ace]

After tonight HS needs to be attacked less. It’s apparent the portal is the way to go.

Sorry, but we got plenty of these post during the Pruitt era and they never amounted to anything.


Hit the portal now, and throw these kids feelings out the window.


There is no rebuild when Ole Miss can compete every season signing 20+ guys.

Yet, Ole Miss did not make playoffs. I agree, we need to be more aggressive in portal

 

[KB5252]

We'll have more talent on offense and a better overall team next season.

Where is the upgrade? Unless you are taking yet to announce portal guys?

100000%

Shout out all the seniors, much love and thank you. but there a bunch of guys who are primary players who should be role players


Bru, Squirrel, Brazell should be 3rd and 4th options on top tier teams.

It’s time to upgrade talent.

We have a bunch of “great story guys” but those guys should only be depth guys.
How many guys on our team could start for top 5 teams? It’s a lot less than we want to believe.

This team overachieved like a MFer this year.
Bring In the talent !

Waiting for the rest of pruitt guys to be gone.

 

[rjd970]

Texas is going to get ran in the later playoff games. Don’t believe UGA can get it done with a backup. This wasn’t the SEC’s year.

We just overachieved but the talent gap finally caught up with us.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Yet, Ole Miss did not make playoffs. I agree, we need to be more aggressive in portal

And yet they are still top 15 each year.

Would’ve made the playoffs last year with 20+ guys if the playoffs were 12 team like this years.

11-2 last season.

 

[Midas]

Man I was really hoping I’d get a Christmas present of the Vols playing in LA now that I live there. Uggghh this one stings

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

He had no choice to break it because our passing game was slaw.

Nope. HS has to be how you build.

 

[Big Orange#1]

All you need to say was “fire banks and elarbee.”

Halzle is also a complete joke

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Halzle is also a complete joke

Add Pope and Martinez

 

[JCP201]

They did. Their second and third stringers are in.

I deleted that post. Felt bad saying it. Nico still playing hard.

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

D Samp broke the single season rush TD record

I think thats more samp than coach. The last 2 years, the passing game has been not good. Pass blocking has been bad, wr talent avg, and qb development has been turbulent.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

He's not nor should he be......I just hope he drops the loyalty and comfort bs before he is on the hot seat

Completely agree. I will say this. If he doesn’t make major staff changes then that will tell us a lot about his time here.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Nico
P. Lewis
M. Matthews
E. Davis

That's our top skill guys on offense next season

 

[rjd970]

I’ll give you two names that haven’t quit. Peyton Lewis and Nico. That’s for damn sure. Playing hard.

This was a growing up game for Nico. In some ways, I think this springboards into an all-American type season next year. We just need an overhaul of talent at the OL and WR positions to help.

 

[UTK]

We will be here a lot. But if we wanna actually win it, we have to just be overall better in recruiting and transfers. Take proven WRs form big time schools. Enough of these small school guys or 3rd and 4th WRs from other schools. You spend all this money on Nico, it’s gonna be a waste if you don’t go get him some weapons and protection.

 

[Vols2DaWall]

Yep. Kudos to those guys.

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

Changes need to be made.

1) Heupel needs to make some staff changes.

2) Heupel needs to get some elite recruiters. No reason not to with not many staff limitations. Give him the money Danny.

I think danny has an open wallet. Its on coach to some of these position coaches and the oc.

 

[Volnut]

The NFL played today?

 

[vol4eva]

No, we were in the playoffs. We were one win from the SECC game. We aren’t far away from competing for titles.

We overachieved this year. That’s obvious now with this WR, LB, and safety group
