Recruiting Forum Football Talk XIX

I don't know about you guys, but Eric Berry's story is something that is really really inspirational to me. Imagine, you're a high caliber athlete on top of the world, top 5 pick etc etc and then you're diagnosed with cancer. To be able to fight back and not only beat cancer, but get back to playing in the highest level of competion in playing in the NFL. It really is something truely remarkable.

They said he requested to have IV's during his chemo so he could continue to workout and stay in football shape. He came out this whole ordeal not losing any weight, but actually gaining a pound or two. Damn Hoss.

Serious question. How does Dobbs sleep 9 hours, be a SEC Quarterback, and be a rocket scientist?

Skips the booty? :dunno:

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Wow. So excited to hear that about Kirkland. That will be huge.

And that sleep program sounds very interesting.

Anyone who has researched sleep understands how HUGE this is. Especially at their age. The ability to recover, remain focused, release of growth hormone and testosterone is massive when sleep is a priority

I bet Butch sent him prepaid gift cards to make sure he wasn't missing meals

Dobbs has been slinging since his first start. If you see him out and about, he's with the most attractive girl in sight. Confidence I guess

One of those prolly cost us Mecole. :sad:

Photographic memory saves a hell of a lot of time

 

[VolsnCards5]

So...the QB of our offense and the potential QB of our defense both have photographic memories?

A good sleep program help limit after hours activity as well. Get em all on one!!

Jennings being willing to move around this early is huge. Either the DBs or WRs are about to get a stud.

Debord already has some wildcat packages designed for Jennings. Similar to what we did with Hurd but JJ will have the option to throw.

 

[zreeves]

If Jennings goes to wr, I'm calling a wr reverse pass in the swamp to be the dagger. Tinsley style.

Damn that's going to be sick

This is one of my main setbacks. Lately, I am probably averaging maybe 5 hours or so a night, give or take. Just aren't enough hours in the day.

Only if they lead off the game with it. Otherwise the dagger will have long been plunged.

Picture perfect

Damn that's going to be sick

I hope they keep it in the bag until the Oklahoma or Florida game.

WOOWWWW, that took me a little off guard. I know the hype, but as serviceable as Danny O and Owen Williams have been, now I'm thinking the freshmen will be starting halfway through September.

I can tell you as a former student athlete I did not get 9 hours a sleep a night, not even 7 hours.

 

[LotteryPick]

IMO he's a WR all the way

You've never seen him play safety. The boy is bad.

I hear you. Not enough time in the day for work, cooking dinner, cleaning up after dinner, spending time with wife and daughter and still getting over 5 hours of sleep. That's why I drink 4-5 cups of coffee a day (all before noon).

 

[volatil]

By far his best position.

 

[VolGee4]

With 3 kids and a 4th on the way? I have 3 kids, and after they go to bed by 8:30, I am done.

You better save up with that 4th on the way.

Depth and ability contribute. Not necessarily start though that is a possibility.

 

[Brillovol]

Oh, one other note on Butch's interview. He said Debord has been working with Dobbs' lower body mechanics and release point which has resulted in greater accuracy.
