Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[Smokey123]

My wife woke me up with it this morning

I’ve known about the whale challenge for awhile.

Yep, literally insane people out there

I honestly don’t know what the whale challenge is, not sure if I wanna know either lol.

I don’t understand the point or satisfaction someone would get from trying to scare children online. I mean you have to be seriously messed up in the head

On a positive side, maybe it will help parents be more involved in what their kids watch and look up on the internet

Blue Whale Challenge
You receive daily tasks from someone. It begins harmless but gets dangerous over the course of three or so weeks. In the end, you are supposed to commit suicide. It came from a twisted guy in Russia who had a background in psychology so he had a good idea how to gain trust and lead people to that end.

Twisted

Anyone heard about this momo stuff on YT? It’s terrifying, can’t imagine if a child saw it. Sick people in this world

Yeah. they have an app called YouTube kids that's supposed to be monitored for the videos but it's hard to trust. We limit my sons time on the iPad and wont let him watch YTKids without one of us near by. These people that make these videos need to be dragged out to the town square and put under the stocks.

That’s insane

 

[Smokeytom]

That’s been known for years.

And get this... there are OTHERS

Oh yeah I’m aware of a number of them but “SmokinBob” being a lady really caught me by surprise just because of the username. I mean, “Vollygirl” and the two “SweetasSoda/Pop” were no shocker. Lol

Why John Adam's? Why?

 

[appyvol]

Lol at Palm having us against Loyola in a 2-15 game. That would be our luck.

 

[SamRebel35]

Kentucky player committing a foul while standing out of bounds. Kentucky's ball. Unbelievable.

 

[Vols4us]

Why John Adam's? Why?

Because he is the same piece of excrement he has always been.

 

[peaygolf]

Honest question about the backgrounds, captions, and pics that recruits use to tweet out offers. Do they do these themselves or do they choose from a template?

Just curious because several have the Smokey Grey or Black unis.

Thanks in advance.....

Nobody should ever doubt SEC office involvement in the continuation of this stuff after all these decades of watching it happen. They don't even try to hide it any more. I guess they realize with all the video recording they can't. So they just blatantly allow it to continue. Sickening.

In football all one has to do is watch the Bama O and D lines. Of course, CJP knows what they do and coordinated the D. So maybe we need for it to continue.

Thats been around for a few years. There will always be that kind of stuff out there in a digital world. Just teaching common sense combats most if not all of it.

Sick, bent mind. Dangerous person whose mind goes that dark in his/her mind.

He sure enough was out of bounds. I did not even pay attention to that the first time I watched it. LOL! Maybe the SEC was allowing the refs to call in Kentucky’s favor last night, because they know they have to make them call in our favor on Saturday to quiet the masses after the LSU game. Prob not but would be nice to get a fair shake.

I’ll go on record and say that I will guess the game is called heavily in our favor tonight as a make up for Saturday.

I’ve not kept them in my routine for long at any time. It’s awful on my wrists and I’ve currently got a bit of tendenosis in one that is finally dissipating.

Currently, I’ve switched to Hack Squats and leg presses with a narrow stance and low foot position... no ego lifting. Also, single leg extensions. I allow myself 1-2 sets of heavy back squats a week since I am dieting and can’t risk injury. A couple of heavy 3’s, 2-3 reps from failure and I’m content to let my other quad exercises do they real work

I know the struggle when you're dieting down and still trying to keep your strength gains. Pushing too hard is how injuries happen, so what's worked well for me during this cutting phase is to keep my rep ranges low, and focus on explosiveness and power. I think you're right on with your rep range, and the important thing is that you're keeping your CNS activated to maintain your strength levels, and with proper diet you won't lose too much of the good body mass you want to keep.

Once you're in a position where you'll be maintaining your body weight, or going back to a bulk, you could potentially look at that 405 squat goal. I'm of the opinion that with the right programming and nutrition, an experienced strength athlete should achieve a 4 plate squat. Smolov Jr is an accessible program that helped me get to 405 and beyond. Bulgarian Method is another program that works very well, but it requires a home gym and the ability to train multiple times a day. Westside Barbell uses many of the principles found in the Eastern European training models, and has been successfully modified to fit the lifestyles of most lifters who have jobs and families and can't train all day, everyday.

Tennessee football: Could JJ Peterson become another forgotten Vol?

Good ole John adams. JJ is a redshirt freshman not a sophomore. I understand the concern but I don't think that is worth that headline yet. It's a message board concern for now. It shouldn't be a media concern until after spring and he isn't impressive or something.

Paxton was starting kickoff specialist as a freshman so that is a lame pick.

Shamburger and Byrd are correct to be on the list. I'm interested to see if Chaney can use Byrd like Hardeman.

 

[head1]

Snopes says it's meh.

Snopes is wrong. My son knew exactly who momo was when we asked. He had not seen the "task" video but did see it pop up in a roblox video and stopped it.

And for those who have kids who watch YT kids and didn't know they did add a restricted mode a few months ago that locks it to only let them see what you want. You can pick the channels and or videos that you are ok with and they cant only see that content and unable to search or be recommended similar.

Saw a high school region semi final last night. No replay and the refs were not perfect but did a very good job. Way better than what I am seeing live and on TV in the college game.

Hack squats are of the devil. I'm fairly new to working out and learned about them last Wednesday. I've been miserable for a week.

Sec officials are terrible. Another mugging by UK and no call

So I guess all the Jay Graham talk was just that?
