Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

@nicksjuzunk must’ve gotten lost in the time warp purgatory.

 

[Coach Punk]

All but guaranteed Beasley as a DB and said the need at RB isn’t Big at all this year.

Yikes!

But...gotta trust them...


Still, yikes.

I’m here too. I have to believe they will take one RB, be it Crouch or someone else.

Okay... but those points came against ECU, Del State, Kansas, and Baylor. Not exactly impressive.

Against VT they scored 24, against TCU they scored 24, Iowa State: 20, KSU: 24. When they played decent teams they didnt score much at all. Why are points against ECU and Dell State impressive? We scored 41 against GT and 42 against Indiana state. We stunk on offense last year so scoring points against teams like that doesnt meant theyre this explosive, unstoppable offense

Unfortunately, our defense last season more closely resembled ECU, Del. State, Kansas, and Baylor than VT and KSU. While I expect improvement this season, how much at this point is as yet an unknown. But I do know if we can't stop the run or generate a pass rush, Grier and WV's offense will light us up, so how quickly our front 7 responds to the new scheme and training by Game 1 is key. Learning a new scheme is generally never a quick thing, so I definitely have concerns about the first swasin, much less the first game. But it also seems these guys were never properly taught in the old scheme, so maybe there won't be as much to unlearn.

Texas A&M is putting together one hell of a class.

 

[85SugarVol]

Any word on how the BBQ went? Any details on what all it entailed?

Fools gold. They have put together great classes for over a decade. Haven’t sniffed the SEC championship yet.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

I don't care what any media guy says... I firmly believe Beasley ends up at running back.

Probably some sort of eating.

Another factor for our D last year was how poor our offense was. Multiple 3 and outs with a no huddle offense is terrible for a D. If our O this year can improve ball control / TOP better then expect that to improve our D as well.

FSU is going to regret letting Jimbo go

 

[StoVol]

Our defense getting steamrolled in spring game didn’t give me much confidence, esp in the DL. Really hoping our DL shows out

Jimbo can recruit and is a pretty darn good coach. With A&M’s facilitates and booster support I expect him to do a lot better there than at FSU I expect them to make noise in the West this year or next.

They smoked it. Really well done. A lot of sauce and flair for those guys. Should have an idea who we pulled shortly.

It took me a few sightings of "avi" here before I realized that some may be too new to computers to know what that is.

AVI File Extension - What is an .avi file and how do I open it?

So now I know to stop looking for videos every time someone says "avi".

They really should be called avatars and not avi's but oh well.

To lazy to type out

 

[InVOLuntary]

I guess you have to fire back in someway, considering that I burnt you with multiple posts. LOL!

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

My guess is we have 6-7 more spots in this class. I think the finish ends like this:

Add
1. OL Wright
2. LB/RB Crouch
3. OLB Bogle
4. DB McCullough
5. CB Hill
6. WR Knox
7. DT S. Williams
8. DE Moore

Lose
1. DT Cox

 

[MockingVol]

Everything has changed and I know nothing

What up peeps. Been lurking for about 4 years. Just want to say I bet a lot of teams are starting to look over their shoulder cause they see the the Big Orange creeping in the top 10. And be like "those guys are on fire". Especially with who we got as our corners now, and they know who is about to coach them up to the max. A guy that has a fist full of rings that was a db coach on those teams. And put some in the NFL. Wow. I am pumped for the next few years to see us relevant again.

 

[drvenner]

I read the word "report" on mobile thinking its part of the post on every post

Reported

Listening to the 247 podcast with Barton Simmons talking about the over/under season totals. The sheer amount of slack they give Florida, and the amount of crap that gets dumped on us, is just amazing.

It makes no sense

DL is concerning. Next year could be downright scary with potentially losing the 3 starters there.

And talking about Missouri without mentioning Dooley!?
