Recruiting Forum Football Talk LVII

Man, it seems like Rumph is up Jordan Allen’s ass every damn day...

Must see good potential in Allen.

Caustiously optimistic. Fans will know early on what to expect with WVU game.

Based on the Spring Game? Only a modicum of the team will be represented.

Yeah. This a simulation... that's it.

I'm going to be very surprised if Pruitt isn't successful here. Just have a different feeling about the program that I never had with Jones. Even after that 5-0 start to the 2016 season. Just kind of seemed like fools gold.

No one cares

The biggest thing I like about Coach Pruitt? He's always got the people's eyebrow.

Say what you want but I watched the UF spring game and they look pretty good.

Trask is a good QB. Will be the starter.

Scarlett is a good RB.

Their O line is solid and the defense still has plenty of talent.

And their crowd really showed up.

I am not worried, but those saying UF was struggling seems a bit of a stretch to me.

Florida doesn't have the athletes they used to have on defense.

We'll easily beat them next year in Neyland. I expect a blowout.

More or less confident than you were in proclaiming we would blow out Georgia last year?

Some good stuff in this article Rivals.com - Rivals 3 Stripe Atlanta prospects predict where top players will land

Very interesting to see some recruits response. For example, Ramel Keyton predicts 4* Saftey Jalen McColough to go to Tennessee because: "I pick Tennessee because he has been trying to get me to commit there. It is between them and South Carolina.” – Keyton

Harrison Bailey seems to be a big fan of us

Random. Am I the only one who thinks of It’s a Wonderful Life when I see Harrison Bailey’s name?

SIAP, Steelers supposedly trading up for Lamar Jackson. Bad news for Dobbs if true.

Steelers never trade up or down. They always pick at their draft position.

 

[Dobbs 4 Heisman]

D4h going to be pissed

When you already know what is going to happen, rumors don't affect you. So regardless of where or when it happens, I know Dobbs will dominate the NFL. So this news is irrelevant, even if it's accurate (which is unlikely IMO).

Knowing the way the Steelers operate, they don't trade up and they have more pressing needs at LB and S. A guy like Leighton Vander Esch (if he's available) is most likely to be their pick in the 1st round. Remember last year there were rumours they would take a QB in the 1st round and that they supposedly liked Deshone Kizer. Kizer was available and they passed on him in favor of TJ Watt. They'll do the same thing this year.

Leighton Vander Esch is the guy they want.

Almost definitely the only one

We have Pruitt now. We no longer have a clown pretending to be a football coach. Expect this team to actually play up to their talent level which is elite.

That clown whom you proclaimed would lead Tennessee to back to back national championships orrrr...?

 

[Brillovol]

Me too

Me three. My girl has a part in a play this weekend, otherwise I’d be down for 4 seats.

And thank you, Jeremy Pruitt for just rounding our capacity to the nearest thousand. Of all the Butch-isms, “one-oh-two-four-fifty-five” was the worst. Why so specific? “Over 100k” is significant enough to get the point across.

Mark Webb UGA projected starting corner carted off at UGA practice today. Big potential loss but probably have plenty of players behind him the way they have recruited

some grouchy folks this morning.

we're going, and my kids would love the autograph session if they were having it. they're not, no biggie. i couldn't care less about it, except for the fact i know my kids would get a kick out of it.

i remember two years ago, we stayed at the Crown Plaza for the FL game, and we were getting off the Elevator and she saw a line of guys wearing TN sweat suits and my 9 year old was like "wow, look at those guys, who are they?" and i said, "that's the football team".

she looked up at me with the widest eyes ever "holy cow!".

so yeah, autographs are lame.

just don't forget who they're really supposed to be for. my kids didn't care what the record was, they were in it for the experience. just like i was when i was a little kid.

so relax.

Quoting because it’s a great story. Nice job, Jake.
