Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[SCvol333]

We found aRB. I thought the oline responded well after getting worked early. I think they should get better as they play more w each other. No player on the oline had experience at the spot they played or with the person beside them. And after only a quarter or so I thought they already started to look better

On defense I agree Grier will do that to a lot of people. Did pretty well againstbthe run. Weren’t dominated up front. But must find a pass rush

On both O and D we need to find a way to get big plays

Qb is a great example. Didn’t play bad. But 176 yds passing w no running yards just isn’t going to cut it. We’re going to need to support this defense w more points and drives than we did today

Regardless of today's outcome the goal was always a bowl game this year, not to win the East or a natty. We can still get there

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Footnotes?

Basically at times he put certain guys in a bad spot, he'll do better. Starts with him, saw some good things, also inconsistencies, etc.

This. Lets just get 6 and go bowling. The jump comes next year.

 

[volinbama256]

Few things made me scratch my head but I believe solid corner play alone and we would have had a ball game.
Other things are more easily adjusted, CB play, yikes.

yeah, if we can figure out how to tighten up our secondary and play smart back there, we should play folks a lot closer than today. Entire secondary was horrible.

 

[volfanCLT]

Well said

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Alabama's a machine. Going to be ridiculous on offense with Tua.

 

[engineerVOL]

I feel like if you feel THAT much worse then your hopes were too high to begin with.

Yea maybe. They did whatever they wanted to through the air and the offense looks as pedestrian as last year. Just replaced Kelly with Jordan.

 

[SpringBokVol]

The most improvement will come from game 1 to game 2.

 

[crazyguy]

That interview on vol network with DWA...yikes. Said they wanted it more.

We need to get his brother to Knoxville.

Film room won’t be fun

I hope to freakin hell that is not the case or we are in straight up 'ishville...

 

[Defaultuser]

Not singular.

 

[volinbama256]

Terry Fair about to earn that paycheck

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

The most improvement will come from game 1 to game 2.

We are not gonna learn anything about this team against these next 2 garbage opponents.

 

[VolGee4]

For being a defensive guy, I was not impressed with Pruitt’s ability to create pressure.

Also, this should remind everyone why they should take all the garbage that VQ analysts put out there with a grain of salt. Pumped up a lot of folks on here way too much.

You always have to remember that they report what they see in practice against our own team. I still think Bituli and Taylor and maybe Kobgbo will be good players for us. Our WR’s were much better than last year, and they implied that.

 

[Catbone]

Catbone: voice of reason

I'm uncomfortable

 

[SpringBokVol]

Film room won’t be fun

This entire week will be rough.

The coaches now have film on their team and will coach them up hard this week.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Takes more than one off season to remove the Butch Jones loser mentality from this team.

 

[millst987]

It’s sad, our boys have no fight in them at all

 

[Catbone]

We are not gonna learn anything about this team against these next 2 garbage opponents.

Yeah. But we can work on small details and fundamentals we lacked today.

 

[volfanCLT]

It’s sad, our boys have no fight in them at all

Disagree. There are plenty of guys with fight on this team if one is paying attention.
