I was a defensive end. 165 soaking wet.

Lmao! I was my high schools smallest OL @ 275. We had a RB that Majors recruited and all our coach wanted to do is throw the ball

So I’m older than you (1974 grad from high school). We had no one close to as big as you. I don’t remember anyone we played did either. East Ridge high school. Chattanooga.

Most small schools do have small OL’s. We are not a very big community to have had guys our size.

Disagree w/ this... Weinke has ties to IMG Academy

Weinke’s Heisman means exponentially more than what few IMG contacts he may still have.

I'm trying to think, how many Heisman winners are currently coaching in college?

I believe you have vastly overrated that piece of junk.

 

[Sleegro]

I believe you have vastly overrated that piece of junk.

Recruits have been mentioning it.

What did they say? "Weinke has a trophy,I'm coming to TN."

 

[Sleegro]

What did they say? "Weinke has a trophy,I'm coming to TN."

Yup

 

[Geaux_Vols]

What did they say? "Weinke has a trophy,I'm coming to TN."

No, they’ve been saying “he once coached at a school I transferred to for my senior year about 5 years ago.”

It doesn’t matter what I think. It’s what the kids think.

Which would be very little about a guy who played before most were walking.

Yeah, heisman winners don’t mean anything to high school football players.

What are you smoking?

Yea, they sit around talking about Herschel Walker, George Rogers, and VCRs also.

I’m legitimately dumbfounded by your angle here.

 

[allvol123]

I’m legitimately dumbfounded by your angle here.

The angle is that it is essentially meaningless.

How many does Neidermayer have?

Ah, I see. You’re apparently talking about something else entirely. I’m saying:

Weinke’s Heisman doesn’t automatically make him a good recruiter, but on a list of things that make him an effective or useful recruiter, his Heisman is higher up the list than his time at IMG.

Devils advocate here but i dont think the heisman has much pull.

It’s not devils advocate if you actually think it.

His Heisman has been mentioned by at least two recruits. I have yet to see anyone mention his time at IMG.

I think you guys are wrong. Being visited at school by a Heisman winner carries more weight than being visited by a former IMG HC.

Officials wont let us win. Period.

It got us 1 kid that was from TN. Ties to IMG are severely overrated. Every school in the country stops by there regularly and none of the kids there would have been when Weinke was coaching

You obviously don’t understand what having ties to a school means in recruiting... the ties aren’t with the players but with the coaches who can assure players & families this guy can be trusted.
