Recruiting Forum Football Talk XXVI

[Wickman]

Really bro.

So you think Von lived up to expectations?

JJ may not have the numbers but he was solid with blocking which Von lacked.

So you're asking a different question. Who lived up to their billing is what you should have asked.

The program hasn't had talent like this since 2001.

History should have nothing to do with expectations. It should be the talent on the field. And our talent right now says the FLOOR for expectations should be 10-2 next year.

As many have said we really just have a 4 game season.

home vs Florida
at Georgia
at A&M
home vs Alabama

2-2 is the bare minimum.

3-1 is what we need to go for our season to be a success.

I agree with this. If we win those first 2 games I'm booking travel to Atlanta for December.

Happy 4th and God Bless this country.

I worry about something awful being planned on a day like today. Praying that doesn't happen and if it does I pray those fools come into contact with some of us real Americans like Charlie discusses here

They also lost 3 of their 5 best defensive players to the draft (Hargreaves, Bullard, and Morrison).

That Florida defense lost Keanu Neal as well.

Got to give credit to Weltons team here along with Butch. Welton is great at identifying future talent and they are ahead of most on certain kids

 

[The Breakerboy]

Yes.

You may not like him but Urban Meyer is a monster at identifying talent.

We need Butch to pull a silent out of his magic recruiting hat to ease the pain. If he has one anyway

You waffle on Butch a lot lol

SEC and National title.

How about Florida for starters, be the biggest win in 11 years

 

[BruinVol]

It's hard to play under pressure to win big when no one in The program has had their feet to that fire.

The way recruiting is going this might be our one chance to dance. Afraid 2016 might be as good as it gets under cbj

What if we are just going to be a strong running team? We've had great success with running backs under Butch.

2016 is the year. I absolutely expect us to take a step back in 2017. Not just losing a lot of star power but recruiting is obviously taking a step back to anyone paying attention.

I would love that but we are struggling with getting elite RBs as well.

WR is certainly the least of our priorities IMO

The instate loaded talent in the 2017class was supposed to allow us to reload. Not looking good for that

Chandler is ours to lose IMO

 

[BruinVol]

Richardson is ours to lose IMO

Need him

Fingers crossed

 

[Mullins2010]

My bad I meant Chandler lol

Lol

Confused me too.

I was thinking there was something more positive than I had read
