Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

You know what they say.... "You are what the abbreviation of your title and name spell." Wise words.

Thanks Anthony Steven Smith.

May be easier to just ban butchna

Always the EASIEST option.

I've tried to limit files sizes to prevent pages from loading slowly and using tons of data on mobile. It can be adjusted.

That is awesome. Super helpful when I cant be on Wi-Fi.

 

[T Dog]

Man, coach Fitz put in some serious work this offseason. Our team looks much different this year

Yeah and imagine what they will look like next year at this time, Swole IMO.

 

[volatil]

Spotted on Hard Knocks


Evan Berry WR for the Browns #89

 

[drvenner]

Let's all get pissed together.

College Football Rankings

CBS has us as the 74th best team in the country, below Arizona State, Arkansas, and Wyoming who just lost their QB to the NFL.

They do have us ranked above Kentucky (80) and Vandy (86), as well as the following other P5 schools:

Baylor (76)
Minnesota (78)
BYU* (83)
Rutgers (84)
Syracuse (88)
Illinois (93)
Virginia (94)
Oregon State (110)
Kansas (114)

I'm glad we are ranked so low. Hopefully, it will give us a chip on our shoulder and cause many to overlook us until we make it so that that cannot.

 

[UpstateVol613]

Wow!!! Ranked below North Carolina and they might not even have enough players to suit up. Fedora probably won’t make it through the season.

 

[whitw]

Some big program is going to get a real good football coach, if they hire Kiffin. If Ogeron looks bad this year, I would hire Kiffin at LSU.

This likely happens.

 

[volfanCLT]

Bull... i beat Kappa Alpha in the Greek intramural championship as QB. Get on my level redneck.

Greek intramural is one step below peewee in my book.

I’ll let you fetch me my water, though.

No way that’s based on any real data-driven prediction. We still have talent.

He isn’t human.

To be fair Bill Connellys S&P projection for 2018 has us at 79. Anything that weighs returning production heavily is definitely gonna have us very low

Judging by the excessive amount of coloring pages, your book means nothing to me

 

[Geronimo]

Looks like Coach Pruitt is taking advantage of the moment. Bet this doesn’t make the national news either...

If I have time, i’ll share the data that shows talent matters way more.

 

[Glitch]

All time QB

I can throw a football damn near a 1/4 mile

Uncle Rico?

 

[Glitch]

Thanks Anthony Steven Smith.

My name is Dr. Ivan Charles Kirkwood thank you very much.

 

[Catbone]

heheheheheheheehe

 

[nicksjuzunk]

I have so many disappoint.

You guys actually let this Kiffin quote slide?


The athletes at FAU might not be five-star recruits, but they are five-star people.

 

[WinginFlorida]

West Virginia didn’t beat anyone last year. As big of a mystery as us IMO. Yes their offense should be good but that defense couldn’t stop the VN Allstars

Did I make the first team? Need to know...in the middle of contract negotiations with Frank.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Good read here: — Athletes For God - it's essentially Lane Kiffin's testimony. Talks about his time at UT and more. Pretty cool stuff.

Thanks for posting but I don't think he's changed his stripes all that much. Maybe he should read the book again.

Yeah sounds like Kiffin has just coached in the south long enough that he realizes you’ve gotta thump the Bible a bit every now and then or mommas will look at you funny.

I know you're not a religious person but I do think that using God as means for personal gain is wrong. If that's his motive then he and Hugh Freeze need to get together and strategize.

I also don’t think it’s fair to assume or imply he’s not sincere in his spiritual relationship. Especially when you don’t know the person.

I just think it’s something coaches in the south kinda have to do. I don’t mean that they’re all disingenuous, but there are definitely some who do it as a matter of keeping up appearances. If a coach in the south was openly non-religious he’d get murdered by negative recruiting.
