Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Sleegro]

Worth mentioning again that we are losing some really good players on the DL, but should be returning nearly everyone else in 2019. With good QB play next year Pruitt could have a breakout season, especially with what looks to be a favorable schedule.

We did just sign like 7 DL so it's not like Pruitt hasn't addressed it yet.

You know, we debate whether or not we like black piping around numbers or if we should go back to black cleats.. at least we're not arguing over something awful like this...

That is awful.

For all you fight aficionados... Here's a new tailgating option.

Waffle House: Bringing the VNRF fight to a street near you

Are you tired of having to drive to the nearest Waffle House to meet up and "settle" an argument with one of your VNRF cohorts? Don't you always hate the hassle of throwing on some cargos over your whitey tighties, squeezing into your orange wife beater, and slipping on your camo Crocs just to be seen in public? How many throw downs do you get to miss out on just because you're a worthless, lazy bum?

Well search no more! Waffle House introduces the new VNRF-edition food truck. Need to settle an argument over signing class numbers? Just call 865-867-5309, give us the VN username of your opponent, and we will automatically kidnap and bring that worthless neanderthal to your doorstep. Your hash browns will be cooked to order while you're giving the business (or have it given to you) and be served steaming hot after the ceremony is over. Come as fierce opponents, leave as gluttonous comrades all thanks to the new Waffle House VNRF food truck!

I'm just still peeved at the Lawless and Thaxton situation lol

Does anyone have the meme handy of LeBron James looking exasperated with Tennessee lined up in the shotgun at the 1 yard line against Florida last year? Wanted to show it to a friend.

With Tank Mccollough now in, the physicality of our DB comitts really stand out. This DB class is gonna hurt some people..

 

[Volnukem]

Do we only have 9 scholarship receivers right now?

Jennings

Johnson
Callaway
Byrd

Williams
Palmer
Murphy

Tillman
Jones

Also want to point out that this is just more evidence that Beasley is our main RB recruit in this class.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Are we still the favorites to land Crouch and Wright? If we land those guys we should finish in the top ten. That would put us 5th right now on 247.

I am really starting to doubt that Jennings is going to be able to do much this year. He seems to be having a really hard time in practice from every report we have heard.

10 - M. Gray

Console yerself with the idea that 2 of the guys we just signed, that many here thought would never contribute, are already thought to be close to cracking the rotation. Kurott Garland and Kingston Harris.

I guess Gray if he sticks at WR would be the 10th. Definitely think we'll look to add a 2nd WR in this class, be in a JUCO guy like Payton, or maybe Knox if we miss on him.

He’s a gamer and will be fine.

Add in Bush or Hill and we’ll be sitting 8-10 on NSD I’d bet

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I know, but it sounds like he is reeeeaaaallly behind right now.

 

[Catbone]

Top 10 class is what we need

 

[Kingston Vol]

I know, but it sounds like he is reeeeaaaallly behind right now.

I really don’t think he’s ever been a good practicer.

Might hurt him but he’s our #2 receiver anyway.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

It's a must IMO

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I don't think that is going to endear him to, or win him a starting spot with this staff. He better do something memorable in a game when he gets a chance, or he will fade out. This staff is not giving him anything because he made a few big plays two years ago...I like the kid and I'm rooting for him, but he better turn it up.

I have heard about these but have not seen the pictures until now. These make me want to puke. As if the general public did not hate ND and the Yankers enough already. Unbelievably bad.

 

[butchna]

They lost that monster senior class. Everybody seems to be forgetting that.

Take a look at this, and keep scrolling down. Georgia’s at 80, and we’re at 87.

(Shoutout for ChattTN for digging out the Phil Steele links awhile back...)

I think their biggest loss was THEIR Al Wilson. Rocquan Smith was their heart and that extra heat that you just don’t plug in another player and replace...at least immediately. We never have imo.

Meh..Lawless had some potential, but he didn't do much his last year in HS to warrant either his ranking, or any hand wringing over his loss..A guy with that size and athletic ability at DT ought to be a wrecking ball in HS. This is the same reason I don't give a care about Zion Logue going somewhere else.
