Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[seaofORANGE22]

I'm so glad we held onto Elijah Simmons. I think hes my favorite recruit. Just looks mean and full of swagger.

Feel like he has the size to play right away. We will probably need a young DL like him to be much better than people expect to get this defense really going next year.

Hitting more than one guy in stride (Chandler, Auburn game) would be a step in the right direction. Jump balls won't cut it.

Agreed but I can't recall having a QB who consistently hit guys in stride since maybe Clausen...

Dobbs was frustratingly inconsistent with that. He'd throw a perfect ball to a receiver in blanket coverage then, the very next play, throw it in the bleachers to a guy who was 5 yards from the nearest opponent.

 

[ob79]

Feeling confident after yesterday. Was at 6 wins previously. I think we get 7 wins.

Stay negative. You're usually wrong and works in our favor.

Didn't know until today that the new OC of the Titans is Fred Smiths son.

Pretty cool that the guy grinded to get where he is now knowing his other options in life

true but when you can run like that its forgiven. Ainge and Bray could both do it well.

Are you suggesting that the Titans will have a new minority owner in near future and something prominent in the organization will be named after FedEx?

I loved his answer when asked about it in his presser.
Said something to the effect of his doesn't confuse his Dads succcess as his own

I'll give you Bray. Ainge....I can never get past the over the shoulder pick 6 against LSU in '06. That was one of the worst plays in UT history.

I get transferring to better their PT, but just don’t understand why you would go to a division rival.

Gibbs situation was obviously a fallout but Wolf was well liked as a teammate. Not sure Pruitt was sold on his blocking.

The OL has to be better than last year. Pretty much everyone back plus Kennedy returning from injury. Even if neither Crouch or Wright start the line will improve. If either or both of them look like Trey Smith did as a freshman than there could be a large step forward. I think having an average SEC O-line next year is certainly possible.

Agree DL is a huge question mark. They'll need either instant impact from newbies or players that are already on campus and haven't produced before to start doing so just to be decent.

The schedule sets up much better this year, and I think several of the mid-tier SEC teams will take a step back (Missouri, Vandy, UK). So even if the lines struggle I could still see improvement.

You got Crouch at Center or Guard

Politics forum is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Politics Forum is a funny place. I actively post and spend most of my time on the RF, lurk the FF for practice reports and for laughs, and post in a few interesting threads in the Pub. I know political communities online are by nature 99% inhabited by trolls, but it's incredible that I see UF trolls with 10k+ post counts. These UF trolls are just spending all their time on a Tennessee Volunteers political message board, and they don't post anywhere else on VN. It's absolutely mindblowing. At least some the users from other fanbases (UGA, UA) here on the RF will on occasion bring good information and/or insight from the other sites and message boards.

He's got good footwork...better tackle.....

 

[T Dog]

And by October you will be at 6-6

Honestly Wolf isn't even a scholarship worthy player. Don't get why UGA would bother other than to pick his brain but we have their old OC...

 

[T Dog]

Yes, but anything less that 7-5 is extremely disappointing. I think 8-4 and no less should be the goal

With bowl game, 9-4.

 

[bignewt]

True but he could hit that second level crossing pattern for 15-20 yards.

One of my friends called me this morning excited about the transfer because it looked like it was coming. He didn’t realize he was a former walk on with like 9 career catches.

UGAs got a lot of talent but a tough road ahead of them this year. If Fromm gets banged up they could be in a very precarious situation.

True. But still....he got pulled for Rick Clausen.
