Recruiting Football Talk VII

[BearCat204]

Gonna miss seeing Herring getting torched by the slowest players on the opposing teams

Elijah Herring to the portal

Younger, more athletic players emerged this spring. It happens

It's mind bottling that people can live through what we had, then get someone as competent as AD White and not be able to recognize the difference.

Mind bottling????? Is this a VN meme I've not seen before?

Rickea Jackson and James Pearce Jr?? Power couple if true. Heupel probably already eyeing that class of 2045 recruit.

Future Vol/Lady Vol loading. And one helluva athlete that kid will be

Tealander should have started over Herring every game. I stated that during the season. Herring was atrocious stopping the run at the point of attack. His tackles were always after gains. On top of that the kid couldn’t cover anything in the passing game.

Telander definitely should not have started over herring. No need to be that harsh. That doesn’t mean herring didn’t have his weaknesses.

I think he did an ok job for a sophomore that hadn’t gotten a ton of playing time yet and wasn’t expected to start going into the season. That said, with our depth and talent increasing at the position, and mostly running 2 LB sets, I’m not super surprised by the move.

I’ll have to disagree. Run stopping which is what our LBs needed to do was never any good with Herring on the field. With Telander on the field he gap fit really well. Reminded me of a less experienced Aaron Beasley. But like you said with the depth we have now, I am also not surprised by it.

Ignore feature people! Use it. Love it.

I’ll give them a one time pass cause they’re generally new here and most likely drunk. Maybe just had a bad Monday.

And ignore watchlist button would be cool @Freak

AJ Johnson was slow. The difference with him was he always was in place to make a play. He was football smart. He didn’t get ate up on blocks. Herring isn’t football smart like that and always gets picked up on blocks. Go look at the bowl game when he tried to gap fit…. Never won at the point of attack

Agree here, him & AJ has one thing in common and that is they both played for UT. That’s where it begins and ends. From the beginning it’s been understood that little bro was the prize, big bro the throw in. Nate & Edwin Spillman the same thing. And I’m talking from a pure football/ sting factor here. Not bashing the kid whatsoever, he provided exactly what we needed once Pili went down. Actually produced faster than I thought he would. If BJM doesn’t offer I think that tells the story. I see him playing well at a MTSU/Louisville though

In a 5 week period next season, UCLA has to play at Baton Rouge, then back in Los Angeles against Oregon, then at Penn State, then back in Los Angeles against Minnesota, then in New Jersey at Rutgers.

~12,540 total flight miles in 5 weeks

I think I would transfer before I had to fly that much.

Really Sarge? It's the first line man!

You can be professional and naked. Just stand at parade rest while doing it.

That’s Fubar, man.

I hope nobody on VN has her as a dentist

Apparently being a dentist is one of the most stressful jobs and highest suicide rates of any profession.

To give her the benefit of the doubt.

AJ was very good with angles
