Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Caleb59seal]

A lot more optimism in the team notes section of the war room. We got some good pieces. Man we might get some upsets

I still firmly believe 8-4 is in the cards...

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

I thought it was noteworthy (or maybe not) how during the CJP presser, he said Thompson would start at cornerback. A few minutes later when asked about AT, he said he would start at defensive back.

So idk maybe AT would get a look at safety before BT?

Also, regarding the second blurb BGS posted - Kurrot Garland was a meh signing for me because he just seemed like a body to fill out the class after whiffing on so many. Nothing would make me happier than to have to eat crow on that. Hope he balls out and gets drafted, whereas his former turncoat hs teammate wallows in misery down in Tallahassee

Thompson is going to get a look at safety.

Thompson is going to get a look at safety.

What is his 40 time?

 

[SmokinBob]

Which brings us to a bigger point that hasn’t been talked about yet. All who knew and didn’t report could face the chopping block. This includes Shiano.

That would be like the death penalty for the program.

 

[engineerVOL]

That would be like the earth penalty for the program.

Would be terra-ble. Like of galactic proportions.

 

[TrueVolsGBOInsider]

What is his 40 time?

4.70, and 4.02 in the 20 yard shuttle.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

4.70, and 4.02 in the 20 yard shuttle.

No way that kid only runs a 4.7, that's ridiculously slow for a safety / cornerback

What you did there - I seent!

 

[Caleb59seal]

4.70, and 4.02 in the 20 yard shuttle.

That kid is gonna be sticky in his breaks... explains the Safety convo...

 

[Dooby15]

I think the media and even myself underestimate just how bad our coaching was last year. From playing 2 yards off the ball agsinst Tech, the debacle at Florida, and not playing to strengths on offense, that team was so poorly coached. There is more talent then what people realize and then you throw in guys like Kennedy, big juco tight end, Kirkland is back, and they’re all now receiving good coaching. I’m not saying we win the East, but I’m not ready to pencil in losses to teams like South Carolina, West Virginia, Florida, Kentucky, or Missouri. Of course it could just be my orange shaded glasses as well.

Bray had so many good receivers at UT-- Hunter, Rogers, Patterson, plus Howard and Rivera. We should have been so much better. But... Dooley.

Gifted thrower but he’s a muttonhead. Can’t blame that on Dooley. Maybe Chaney? I think Cutcliffe could’ve developed him where he may not be a perennial third stringer/practice squad player...or not. Always had a mental deficiency when it came to clutch moments imo.

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

Speed, Length, and Hips.... you don’t have all three of those in this secondary... the bench is way

No coach worth his salt would start a DB without hips!

 

[TrueVolsGBOInsider]

No way that kid only runs a 4.7, that's ridiculously slow for a safety / cornerback

He ran that 4.7 at the opening In Charlotte. He could get a little faster once he adds some muscle, but right now 4.7 was his best.

 

[Darth_Shiveman]

40 times at the opening can be hit or miss anyway. Sometimes HS kids just haven't spent much time training for how to run a 40 correctly. Dobbs ran a 4.9 at the opening in HS and then a 4.64 at the NFL combine.

Bro?
I get that Rodney Dangerfield feeling up in here.

Ms. Smith said she texted all the coaches' wives, that would include Schiano. If there was going to be a school willing to take GS as HC before the UT fallout, we saved them a major headache.
Although I have no idea why anyone would given his "take out their knees" tyrades.

So the debate is a moot point, although the part that you all are debating Bruin, made it a worthless endeavor from the start.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

1st day of fall camp...

 

[TrueVolsGBOInsider]

I completely agree with you on that assessment. Thompson will be fine, I need to see what Taylor ran just for comparison.

 

[millst987]

I’m betting that kid is much faster than 4.7 in the 40.

 

[TrueVolsGBOInsider]

I thought shamburger was our fastest DB, he was clocked at 4.47. Baylen B ran a 4.49, shamburger isn’t the fastest though. Marquill Osborne ran a 4.3, dude can flat out roll!!

 

[drvenner]

THANK
GOD
IT'S
FIRST DAY OF FALL CAMP!!!!!!

 

[drvenner]

Bray had so many good receivers at UT-- Hunter, Rogers, Patterson, plus Howard and Rivera. We should have been so much better. But... Dooley.

Come on, now, according to some posters on here, Dooley is an offensive genius!!

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

There have been plenty of opportunities for other programs to snap up Schiano. Tennessee fans aren't the only ones
who didn't want him as the face of their program. Ultimately, OSU not promoting him to interim looks the worst, though.

But we were the only one with an idiot for an AD that thought it’d be a good idea to hire him and further marred our institution. Then, Voltwitter struck.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

What time is practice today?

 

[T Dog]

I love this staff.

Twss

I was thinking the same thing last night. I might have misread, but I thought the excerpt someone posted from OSU's employment contract/guidelines set forth that any employee who is aware of any instances of this sort of abuse by another employee or student is required to report it. According to Davis's wife, she said all the wives were aware and it would stand to reason that some if not all of them spoke to their husbands about it. Yet, no one reported it. Is my understanding of OSU employment requirements accurate and if so, what happens now?
