Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Kingston Vol]

The OW game was originally supposed to be the weekend after this but Boyd wanted a “UT palooza” on the weekend of the 13th. So there will be baseball, softball, track, tennis, and O/W game on the same weekend.

I normally skip the O&W game but it’ll be nice to roll out of Lindsay Nelson into Neyland. Hope the weather cooperates.

 

[eVOLve]

Are they gonna do autographs and all of that this year before the OW game?

 

[InVOLuntary]

I haven't seen that, but maybe where you play. But these kids that I'm seeing are WAAAAAY better than we were at that age. It's scary how good they are.

My son played highschool golf here in Knoxville. They played against Halls High school. There were 2-3 Halls players that were scoring in the 60's almost always. One got a scholarship to South Carolina. These kids are crazy good.

Ok. I have a son that is involved so that's why I have that perception. Sneds, uskids and the jr pga leagues are highly participated in

I will say that I have notice more in the 6-10 age group. You are right on that. The jr pga league is really neat for growing the game.

His frame is what’s so impressive. Like someone said, the dude beside him is jacked but this guy has wrists as thick as 2x4’s

Yep. The wrist thing is weird. I know it relates to frame but I've noticed that most younger guys, regardless of height or size, have smallish wrists whereas older dudes, even really short and smaller framed, have Popeye arms. I guess all of the plastics and estrogens floating in the water is screwing up our endocrine systems at a young age.

I can't help it if you have no sense of humor.

Doubt it. HGH therapy is a few thousand dollars a month. There are much more accessible PEDs for college athletes. The SARMs are what are still really popular with the younger athletes.

Dude is obviously jacked and shredded, but you don't need PEDs to get like that. Now something like Pride era Alastair Overreem, that was definitely an enhanced athlete.

Thanks for commenting about SARMs. I was not familiar with them and looked them up. It seems while they do not appear as harmful as anabolic steroids, they still have the potential to do some damage to your system, at least in the short-term.

Hopefully the same will be said for Florida in the next few days

Men's Football

Men's Basketball

Baseball

Track

Softball

Volleyball

Womens B Ball

Swimming

Golf


How it should be for all universities.

 

[3rdDegreeVol]

Agree with track, then golf/tennis/soccer

Don't forget Lady's Softball. They're ranked from 8-10 in the country based on which poll you look at. Women's soccer finished the season ranked 8th as well. The volleyball team is improving as well, finishing 26th after being picked much lower.

Vol Coaching Staff Recruiting Ranking



-247

A waste of space...Kevin is below him, but at least he does some good coaching.

I agree his name is not associated with many big-time recruits, but to call him a waste of space is quite a bit over the top. Also, if he was not getting it done on the recruiting trail, don't you think that CJP would have addressed that by now?

whoops forgot about soccer, that should go on the list above volleyball.

 

[drvenner]

Now we probably know why Freeze didn’t get a P5 job.

Did something else happen?

Whew. Two true freshman tackles in the SEC.

That will be tough to watch..I hope they play, but surely a couple of the upperclassmen can do well enough to forestall them having to start.

 

[drvenner]

SIAP, 6:00 is interesting.

I think it would be 102,454 of your closest friends unless you're not going. JMO.

 

[drvenner]

When will this happen to Bama?

When Mark Emert retires.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He was in better position this past year. He dropped like 3 or 4 ints. Needs to clean that up

He needs to hustle, take better angles, play more physical and tackle better more than he needs to catch INTs.

Did something else happen?

Ole Miss football vacates 33 wins over six seasons as a result of NCAA investigation

 

[drvenner]

Oof, no love for Tennis?

 

[i2amavol]

Ole Miss vacating 33 football wins after violations

Auburn, UGA, and Clemson should be next, IMO.

 

[bignewt]

You could bounce a tennis ball into space off Heather's backside.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Good. Will help eliminate the pay college players talk some.

Exactly my feeling on this too.

Thanks for commenting about SARMs. I was not familiar with them and looked them up. It seems while they do not appear as harmful as anabolic steroids, they still have the potential to do some damage to your system, at least in the short-term.

The big reason why SARMs are so popular these days is because of they way that they bind to the androgen receptors in the areas where you would want to bulk up (delts, traps, chest, arms, legs, etc...), without attaching to receptors in the organs and bones. Ostarine is still one of the most popular for bulking, same with Ligandrol. Like any type of exogenous hormone, they'll definitely affect your endocrine system.
