Also, during the timeout, Azzani moved JJ to that position as someone else was there in the original formation. Usually there is a guy behind the ball anyway to catch a tip. But there is so much traffic in a play like that, someone has to go up, and that's what JJ did.

I tried to like England because I follow the Premier League, but I disliked many of the players. I like the discipline and general class Germany displays as a team. They are methodical and machine like. I also liked their striker who has retired already... early morning here, and my foggy brain can’t even remember... Klaus... and then I can only think of Mein, the singer for the Scorpions 😂

This year was obviously a huge disappointment, but I’m a Tennessee fan, so it fits nicely

And I’m a Thainnessean 🇺🇸 🇹🇭

Miroslav Klose from Germany. One of the all time great goal scorers, even though they weren't always against the best opponents.

Germany though has always been a tournament team, but they had no team spirit this year. It's not even Low's fault, the players had no chemistry and there were outside factors that affected squad harmony. THe DFB would be smart to keep Low, and let him personally kick out the players who have negatively affected the squad's cohension, namely Ozil and Khedira. Germany has some of the best young players in the international scene. Even Boateng looked like he lost a step. You don't go from U21 UEFA and Confederations Cup champs to being one of the very worst performing teams at the WC due to lack of talent or bad coaching.

Yes, Klose. Good grief I couldn’t remember. Loved the last WC when little was expected from him, and he started scoring goals

Thai Cave Update: rescue operations were suspended yesterday... just no headway being made in pumping water out... too much flooding.

Apologize for my ignorance but if they somehow have found an area where they can survive the flooding, is hypothermia a major concern?

Oh shoot. Forgot that part. iOS 11.4. (I’m on a 7+) Happens with anything using Webkit. Facebook does it to me too, so maybe it’s not just a VolNation thing.

And it’s intermittent. Sometimes works sometimes not. Doesn’t freeze the page, just makes it unclickable.

If you're having issues, I always suggest clearing out your temp files. A lot of times that takes care of it. I can't seem to duplicate the issue on iOS.

"Erratic throwing" and "he's got some work to do to become more consistent".... about to start 3rd year with UT...
I was honestly hoping to hear better things - I know just a hot take and there's still a lot of time left before the season starts, but with all the unknowns/new unproven talent we have, We need someone solid at that position and I think solid and consistent are going to be a stretch for him.
Hoping he sharpens his craft or Chryst comes in better than advertised... A better O line will definitely help.

That article that gatorland "summarized" was a lot more positive about jg than his summary indicated. Said he was erratic because he was working with receivers from a bunch of different schools but once he settled in was impressive. I think he just read the headline and summarized that. The rest of the article was pretty positive and the same analyst has watched chryst up close too and thinks jg will start.

Fresh banded krait in the road. Alas... I arrived minutes too late it seems. I am awarded no VFL points

Analyst: New Vols QB Keller Chryst a 'dink-and-dunk' guy

Basically says chryst is good at dink and dunk passes but needs to work on intermediate and deep passes. Then he says jg is definitely gonna start.

Well, all I've heard about our passing game is that we like to throw it down the field.. JG did have a pretty impressive spring game, accuracy-wise.

Dinking and dunking were probably all that Chryst had to do when he had McCaffery and Love carrying the offense.

If Chryst became a world beater this year, that would be recruiting currency for Helton to spend for years.
