Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Chief Vol 13]

Shout out to Mike Hamilton for telling Gary Patterson to pound sand in 08. Totally different culture around here had he just hired him.

Was just thinking about that. Thanks for the memories, Mike.

Rooting for TCU to beat Ohio State. I hate Ohio State.

I don't know why they let Herbstreit call OSU games.

 

[JacketVol]

It’s almost like they know they won’t get called.

They do. SEC will make sure they have every opportunity to win. It’s all such a dirty business now that so much money is involved. TV money has ruined this sport.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Really liked:
Chandler, and London
Palmer
JG is a rising star.
Glad we got DWA more involved in the passing game
Felt good for my Vol soul to see JJ get six
Paul Bain!!!
AT and BT flashed
Will Ignont finally did something
Cut clips of JG rallying the troops and CJP being animated on the sidelines

Disliked
Drew Richmond.... wtf
Nigel Warrior not reaching his potential still.
No forced turnovers against a putrid team. Two ints gift wrapped and missed
Jeremy Banks (lack of) ball security
Play KC just to hand off?

[BruinVol]

Is there a single coach on our realistic list last year that still looks good?

Purdue
Iowa State
FSU
Nebraska
NC state
Raiders


Hell I can't think of one coach showing out right now

Woa just wow

How far has BobbyP fallen?

An awful wku team may beat him

 

[volfanCLT]

Pruitt has a little Gary Patterson to him

Would love for him to be as successful

 

[JacketVol]

Lol. Who you ignoring?

Took Bruin off. But can’t take him and his crazy post.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Was just thinking about that. Thanks for the memories, Mike.

Drives me nuts to think how different things would be if he had hired him. Would have had back to back to back great football coaches. Tennessee would be thought of as one of the top 6 or 7 programs of all time, we'd be in contention just about every year, etc. Yikes.

 

[JacketVol]

Although Bruins wording was over the top, he is correct. Absolutely zero positives for taking JG out of an excellent opportunity to run a 2 minute offense. Bone head coaching move for sure.

I agree but wording was silly. Don’t have time for it.

 

[Orange Studs]

I asked earlier and still wondering why Thompson didn't play today?

 

[BruinVol]

I asked earlier and still wondering why Thompson didn't play today?

Lol
And I answered earlier

He did play

 

[volfanCLT]

Bryce? He played almost all game iirc

 

[Orange Studs]

Bryce? He played almost all game iirc

When they announced the starting line up it was Buchanan at DB instead of Thompson. Or was it Taylor who didn't start? I may have just missed that part if so.

No idea about starters. Bryce had an INT go off his facemask at one point and I remember him in on some tackles.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Bryce definitely played

 

[volfanCLT]

Alabama is just unfair

**** em

You know I do remember seeing that. just didn't pick that up that it was him. I think when I didn't hear his name in the starting line up just threw me why he wasn't. He played so well last week. Really love his potential at DB. But thanks for helping unconfusing me lol

 

[Rishvol]

Not sure if you were being serious or not, but I agree

I was being serious. Only so many games where he can be a fan of his son.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

Was just thinking about that. Thanks for the memories, Mike.

Ditto. And to think we probably could have had him 2010 had we just appointed an interim instead of rushing to hire Dooley.

Josh Gordon strikes fantasy rosters again...

...one reason the Browns might be getting rid of Gordon, who has been suspended multiple times for problems with substance abuse, is "there was concern that perhaps he was struggling again with his sobriety or on the verge of relapsing," according to cleveland.com.

- Jamey Eisenburg

Well, I wish that young man the best of luck and hope that a potential relapse thing wasn't the case.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

Wish Alabama would have hired Rich Rod lol

 

[vol2002]

That was dumb to take JG out. Not saying it had any bearing on the game but that was really weird. He’s treating it like it’s still a competition. It’s not. I’m pretty sure Chryst knows as much lol.

I honestly think Pruitt believes JG is going to get his brains beat in when we play UGA and Bama and he wants his backup ready...

 

[Glitch]

SIAP, but how bad does Arky suck hose?
