Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[BleedorangeinGA]

Hey all you haterz of me..See here, I am pessimistic and miserable about this year..I readily admit it...but this...this is what a real jerk post looks like right here.

Who elected you leader of this outfit?

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Eh, I’m not sure about any of that.

Our defensive stats are better but we’ve played two total cupcakes and they’ve played one.

And let’s not throw stones about pass rush considering they have 8 total sacks to our 5.

They’ve played two cupcakes also. Colorado State is like 70th in offense. We also played a top 10 offense where the best they played was #37 Kentucky.

 

[Chief Vol 13]

UF is a must win if we're going bowling IMO. UGA, Auburn, and Alabama will need a mop after they get done with us. Yikes.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Our RB’s are better IMO

I agree now that their most dangerous RB (Davis) has a broken foot and is out.

 

[JacketVol]

Except Tyler Byrd got multiple opportunities to play DB, remember? Guess not.

Not in his freshman year. Do you remember that

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Ah, my little prodigal. You're going to deny the truth I bring you on this one just like you did with Jones. It's okay.

How did this one get out of the ignore bin?

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Hey y’all, Georgia has 1 sack in three games.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Maleik Gray..... highly rated TN kid, still young.

Anyone think he finds a position and carves a roll before it’s all said and done? I honestly don’t even remember what position he’s at now.

 

[LaagerVol]

Poorly developed his first few yrs. S&C program is big for those type kids.
I've seen him flash through each game just not bringing down QB. I got a feeling as season goes we see him finish better

Yeah, I think he’s getting better. Hopefully he continues on an upward trajectory.

ST hero. Don't know what else he would excel at. Maybe star.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I will be pulling hard for the Vols this weekend.

Just been burned too many times on this one so I am trying to set appropriate expectations so I am not completely pissed off for a month.

I doesn't work. I knew this season was going to be hell..and it is still just too much to take...might as well just get pissed.

 

[Catbone]

Ugh! Why couldn’t we get a 1200 kick for this one?! You know Kirby is going to run it up on us, if he gets the chance.

That was going to happen regardless tbh.

Butch jones recruit. Tweener. Maybe a transfer. Could be a player at a FCS school or something like Troy

Auburn isn’t that good. They will beat us but they aren’t that good.

 

[ChattaTNVol]

It will be intersting to see what this looks like after our game this week. Kentucky's OLine held up pretty good against FL and vice versa. Our OLine has been showing improvement, albeit against inferior opponents. If our improvement is due to a better grasp of the know-how we may be okay.

 

[jordan4vols]

Shhhhhhh

 

[WinginFlorida]

Auburn isn’t that good. They will beat us but they aren’t that good.

Counting on the schedule being our ally. The UT game is Auburn's 6th straight game and follows what will likely be a Top 10 match-up against Miss State the week before. UT has an off week preceeding it as well.

Kentucky has a good run blocking scheme (Coach Gran), a good o-line and the best RB in the conference. KY also has a mobile QB that ate up yards against Florida.

I’m not sure the key to beating UF (for us) is running the ball like it was for UK, but we will see.

I'm actually thinking we air it out a little more. Their secondary is THIN and not very good. If the OL gives JG time I think we see more throws this game, which will also help with the run game.

Auburn isn’t that good. They will beat us but they aren’t that good.

Their strength unfortunately is whereour biggest weakness is. DL vs OL. I'll have to see our defense these next two wks vs SECto know whether or not they can make it an ugly low scoring game by stopping their offense.

The plus side to this brutal stretch is pruitt is plenty familiar with each team and staff. He knows all about Mullen and gratham. Knows all about Kirby, Gus, Saban and muschamp.

 

[Catbone]

I think we maybe can beat one of UF or Scar if we dont turn the ball over

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

South Carolina is gonna lose this weekend. I think VANDY gets them.

So far pass pro has been the better than run, so you may be right.

At this point, you have to believe Vandy is gonna be a problem for everyone except UGA

 

[LA Vol]

UF is one of our best chances for an SEC W. The Gators aren't a good team, and they have issues of their own. It's a home game, there will be a sell-out crowd, former players will be on campus motivating the team and all players other than Kennedy are available. We have decent depth and momentum coming off two wins. It's harder to win SEC games OTR and who knows how healthy we'll be coming out of October. The time to win is now.
