Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Woah. They’ve played in 8 BCS/NY6 since ‘95 and lost all.

Lmaoooo

I think Clemson is going to ge their **** kicked in against either Bama or Oklahoma

They are the only team with a chance to beat Bama. They have beaten OU like a combined 300-20 the last two times they played the last few years.

You were one of Butch’s biggest supporters till the bitter end. Odd hill to die on

I backed him until I fired him as I’ve told others. Which technically was before the “bitter end”. I’m very much alive!

If eligible, I would take Trevor Lawrence 1st in this years draft and never look back

F U Butch Jones. Seeing Lawrence and Higgins in Clemson uniforms is just sickening.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Yea but they’re actually in a P5 conference, and it’s not their fault the rest is bad.

Either don’t penalize teams for not being in a P5 conference or hold ND to the same standard as you would with UCF and other small schools.

I mean, army went 10-2 and took Ou to OT and the playoff committee didn’t even rank them

I'm not trying to prove a point, just stating facts.

Don’t hate Pruitt at all. Just think he’s gotta do a lot of things different/better.

Keeping his teams from quitting is #1. Job #1 as a coach is getting your team ready to play and have them play hard.

If I had to gripe about this past season, I would say that Pruitt got tired of losing, and just started focusing on strength and conditioning, and recruiting. Now, moving forward, that will probably pay dividends. I just don't think Pruitt cares much whether we are 5-7 or 6-6, and going to a lower tier bowl. We will thank him later.

Woulda been one of the top picks outta HS if he coulda entered lol

 

[butchna]

Lots of revisionist history on this board

There is. Included in that LOTS is the suggestion that Butch left us loaded with talent. He did recruit and land some talented playmakers on both sides of the ball. He loaded up on garbage on the OL to the effect that Trey Smith didn’t make it passable. I disagree with some personal narratives against the man but the only coach he outperformed was Dooley.

Rare to see a QB step right in and look this good.

Imagine where he’s going to be in a couple of years. Scary

He let go 3 years ago.

Who the farg said “said”? I clearly stated “suggested”. Keep up better!

 

[beneVOLence]

ND prevledge showing up again. They don't belong in the final 4 teams. I think there are several teams better, but with their schedule and going undefeated they get the benefit of the doubt.

Clemson would beat UCF by 50

Maybe. Doesn't mean they don't deserve playoff consideration. Every year they put someone in that gets blown out. Notre dame may get beat by 50. They thought Auburn would beat UCF by 50 last year. Maybe Notre dame just isn't motivated like Auburn last year.

For the record, this year I didn't have a problem with the teams that got in. The problem is they don't even consider UCF. It's obvious they were artificially pushing them down when a 2 loss Michigan just got destroyed and was still ranked ahead of them. Then got destroyed by Florida. There were 3 straight weeks during the season where UCF won and a team coming off a loss had a bye week and jumped UCF in the polls without playing. How does a team that doesn't play and has a loss jump an undefeated team that played and won? Because they didn't want UCF to be ranked high enough where if other teams lost, they would have to put them in. It's cool though. I know most of y'all won't agree with me.

Side note: their qb that had that horrific knee dislocation on Thanksgiving is about to have his 5th surgery to repair arteries and nerves and is due to have full knee reconstructive surgery in a few months. But he is moving around already and travelled with the team to the fiesta bowl. They thought it may be a career ender but they now think he'll be able to play again.

Nobody has “suggested” he left us with a loaded roster.

It’s funny the ones who defended him the most are now the ones that hate him the most and lie about him

 

[scvolfan7]

Dooleys first class looking back on it was awesome. 9 NFL caliber players. (Counting Rogers imo)

Da’rick Roger
Justin hunter
Juwuan James
Tyler bray
James Stone
Zach Fulton
Mychal rivera
Michael palardy
Matt darr

Kiffin had locked most of those guys up. Dooley sealed the deal but based on his other classes it’s clear that he wouldn’t have gotten those guys if he had had the entire year. I mean the guy didn’t even call von bell. I liked Dooley but his recruiting is what cost him his job

 

[volfanCLT]

Uh ohhhhh y’all see the Clemson player do the finger wag??

Oh yea?!?

L’s just keep coming for the ND football program

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Woah. They’ve played in 8 BCS/NY6 since ‘95 and lost all.

You could dial that back to ‘94 if you want to count the Fiesta Bowl.

 

[BigOrangeVols]

I think Vandy would beat ND
