Recruiting Football Talk VII

[SoullessGinger32_]

What's even more amazing is if you go through and use all the criticism in threads in regards to our pitching since the season started we wouldn't even be top 25 in ERA lol. And we've been without one of our best pitchers for a while in AJ Russell.

Instead of passing the offering plate Carson was probably doing a little “puff, puff, pass” of his own

Actually I truly believe A.J. should get shut down for the rest of the season. Tennessee has done just fine without him, get right and come back and ball out next season.

Jesse misses VQ so much. Prolly is drunk in his wife beater cussin at his doctor wife every day at the end of her rounds.

Hubbs was smoking crack when he hired him. Even if they aren’t blatant homers like AP, VQers need to be UT-affiliated in some way. That means no Gatordawgs.

Missed it about as bad as the refs did the calls against him.

@DD4ME has fouled out of Vol Nation.

What? I am talking about how he never got called for fouls and everyone else did.

The best part was the shots of the pup fans and their utter disbelief. Would love to beat them again more regularly so they can go back to being mostly irrelevant.

If he went and played baseball out of high school then he still has college eligibility. Bo Jackson played pro baseball and still went and played in college.

There should be an age cutoff

I suppose, still yet dont understand why individuals go postal over a anonymous poll. Who cares the results on the field will do all the talking that needs to be done.

I despise **** like those opinionated polls.

I hear you. They are silly. I don't get worked up over them and I also don't get worked up over other people getting worked up over them.

This is by far your best dad joke ever!

It's a challenge for everyone. You pick your spots.

But spare me the moral virtue signaling.

I like the sentiment: building players > buying players. Unfortunately for him I think it will fall on deaf ears for anyone with a brain.

It’s hypocritical given what he was paid to go to LSU.

And in this day and age you have to be competitive with the dollars, which Im sure they are.

I think the main thing here is if highest dollar is all you care about then this is not the place for you. Maybe that weeds out some bad eggs. That said, almost all the programs are taking that approach as NIL is not a never-ending resource, and anyone whose being realistic knows that.

So yeah it’s words and at the end of the day you need to provide a complete package however you structure it: Opportunity to Play + Development + NIL + Campus Life + Education + Post Grad Opportunities

Why? There was a 50 something year old playing for a school in South Carolina years ago.. SC State

Won the Heisman didn't he?

Lol I think that’s another state school a little further south

 

[orangebloodgmc]

Colorado?????? We can’t be serious.

What a joke. LSU lost their 2 best and only return one decent one. Same for some of these others, I believe.

How is this possible

Kelly Washington says hi!

SIAP, just posted this in the baseball forum:

Interesting read on Perfect Game and NIL of amateur athletes if any of you have kids that play travel baseball. Sounds like PG wants their cake and to eat it too.

Why the Perfect Game, Fanatics deal has agents raising concerns about amateur player rights

Some baseball agents question Perfect Game’s requirement that amateur players sign away their NIL rights to participate in tournaments.

Good thing there was no umpire or it would have been called a foul.

 

[rikberry31]

Contrasted with

It's still not pretty but at least he hit the rim, but like I said I'm pretty sure Edey was fouled on his throw.

 

[knoxvol52]

Chris Weinke was 25 before he decided to play football at Florida State.

Josh Booty was 23 or 24 after trying MLB .

Same here. Russell, Causey and Snead would be filthy as a SP rotation next season.

I'm drunk running on fumes in Ireland

Good lawd. Me and the wife started drinking with some Germans so I had to show them what us Americans were all about....even though I'm on zero hours asleep

Giving my all for Tennessee.

Young lady for LSU just pitched a 14 inning complete game vs Alabama. LSU won 3-2 total of 206 pitches she threw.
