Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Won't be hard to get down to 85. The coaches set goals for the players and some will be less motivated to reach their weight and strength goals. Spring practice will show who's working hard... and who's dropping behind.

I’m pumped for the Spring game.

 

[KokoBVol]

Come on now.... That was the joke

 

[SLICKYINC]

I will but before I look at it, does it teach face mask on the ball side wrapping up and driving through the midsection of the Offensive player? Because that is how I was taught.

Been awhile since I watched it. Don't remember the specifics of which side their head was on..

Hey, I asked you yesterday and didn't see you respond. Do you think UT will pay $1.5-$2 million for a women's basketball coach in your opinion?

 

[RiotVol]

Where's Richmond going? And is he bolting because we're getting both Morris and Wright?

Watched 60 minutes last night. China is moving at a rapid pace in this. They come over here to get educated then go back over there and brainstorm. If you can somehow watch the episode from last night, I encourage it.

China is also moving toward using AI/Robots to fill MD Physician roles now with their population. The robots/AI can draw experience from all digital case files recorded in history to make a diagnosis and predict outcomes. The MD robots can communicate with each other via AI and increase the collective knowledge base instantly. The rational is they can also replicate them much faster than spending 8-12 years on a human going through med school. Kinda scary, not sure how developed they are on Bed Side Manner.

Lol China won't have a population problem for long...

I love CP but I hope any of our other former Vols win it and not him, this year.

I got the Saints all the way. I mean AK plus Drew B. Them dudes got class. Plus I lived and worked down there couple times working offshore as a commercial diver.

Haha!! Reminds me of a t-shirt I have that reads "Determination. That feeling you get right before you do something incredibly stupid".

 

[volfanCLT]

I took a risk and drafted him in FF. He was inactive most of the season.

He’s only played in 4 out of 17 games.

Now it’s BOV so, per usual, guy has no idea what he’s talking about

 

[HankHill]

Richmond would still be the projected starter if we got both of them.

AutoDX is the way that diagnostics are moving towards, and AI is being used to drive the clinical workflow with an emphasis on patient safety. The next 2-5 years is going to be very exciting in the healthcare space. Healthcare technology companies that are still in the businesses of making widgets will be left behind. Healthcare technology is moving towards a SaaS model, driven by the advancements in AI and AutoDX. What to watch is FDA clearance of AI-driven healthcare solutions.

Sorry, I didn't see it. I really don't know how Fulmer is going to handle it, but I know nobody wanted this situation this year. My guess is UT won't go quite that high on base. They could try and package a lucrative deal with salary escalators for getting to the S16, E8 and F4 and big bonuses for winning championships. Recruiting and winning should go hand-in-hand at a program like UT and they'll probably look to incentivize performance, then revise upward with success.

 

[T Dog]

That's surprising considering China has all the manual labor they need.

They said that AI was going to be BIG. BIGGER THAN ELECTRICITY. That scares that chief out of me.

Me trying to duck that GOT teaser vid while I try to catch up before April 14th

There's a major concussion problem with all codes of rugby football, all the way from international test matches, to grassroots and youth level. The tackling you see in rugby is taught very differently than the way it's taught in American football because of the lack of head protection, and tackle positioning is taught differently also because of the emphasis on the breakdown and rucking/mauling that doesn't exist in American football. Some have argued that the IRB and leading professional organizations like the RFU haven't been proactive enough on the concussion issue in rugby.

I'm sure there are injuries in the sport of Rugby, but my comment about the way Seattle teaches that style of tackling has more to do with avoiding targeting issues in American football. They're trying to keep their players safe as well as in the game.

Do you think that will be enough to attract a coach like waltz?

How is the **** diving down there?

 

[Sleegro]

He’s only played in 4 out of 17 games.

4 out of 17 is almost every game apparently.

Rivals rankings update is this week. They released a Top 10 video reveal and guess what? Wright is no longer in the top 10 and isn't the #1 OL anymore. But George Pickens did jump into the Top 10 at #7 overall.

Top 100 released tomorrow. 250 Wednesday and position rankings Thursday.

What are our chances with Pickens?

I just haven't followed the individual threads closely this cycle

 

[Skizer41]

Sounds like Tee Martin will be added but not likely until after NSD. Weinke and/or Johnson are likely gone but that also won't likely happen until after NSD but could happen anyday now depending on where they end up. Still some rumors out there that Pittman could join the staff as well.

I'm trying to catch up but this caught my eye. I thought UGA gave Pittman a BIG raise?

Just like they were giving one to Chaney, right? Just rumors from what I've seen so far. Nothing reported yet on any new signed contract for Pittman. He might stay at UGA but could also go to UT or Bama. We'll see...
