Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

I'd have to add Disturbed, Godsmack and Pantera to the metal grouping. As for Zombie, don't forget his early years with White Zombie.

Agreed.

And yeah, just said Zombie to cover both.

Poison, Motley, & Skid Row have no business being mentioned in the same sentence with Guns N‘ Roses.

Motley & Skid Row were good (Poison, no), but Appetite for Destruction and the early days of Guns was on a whole different level.

Motley Crue was pretty damn good bru.

VQ chat recap...

Spring practice nuggets?

As noted on podcast today, hearing lots of buzz about Jahmir Johnson's strong offseason, staff also impressed with a number of newcomers including Morris, Crouch and McCollough. Big spring for JJ Peterson, too. Can he make a move at LB?

-Simonton

From a leadership standpoint, Jamir Johnson has sort of emerged on the offensive line.

Alontae Taylor has had a good off-season. Wayna Morris had dropped some weight Jerome Carvin is in much better shape and has gotten stronger.

-Price

Update on Ollie Lane?

I think they will work him at guard and center this spring. He's 305. He has definitely gotten stronger (he got an extra day of workouts in last fall as a redshirt). However, I don't have any specific weight numbers.

-Hubbs

JJ Peterson

Peterson is in better shape for sure. I think the biggest question is how far along is he mentally.

-Hubbs

In response to a dick comment about 'is jj peterson mentally hanidcapped'

He's been here 7 months. He never went through system install. When he got here they were in game planning so it's been a tougher transition for him.

-Hubbs

Update on transition to Tee and Chaney?

People love Chaney. I think the transition with him and Tee has been very good.

-Hubbs

Chaney after several QBs plus having Harrison in boat.

Tee making lots of headway with guys.

-Price

Pruitt & Co., have been impressed with Chaney thus far, especially in the film room with the current team. He hasn't disappointed on the recruiting trail either, building a relationship with Bailey + also look at other 2020 options.

-Simonton


Linebacker 2-deep?

Too early to know. DT is a given at OLB, Bituli will be in the mix at ILB, but questions after that include what happens with Crouch and JJ over the next few months? Is To'oto'o ready to contribute on Day 1? What about Jordan Allen and Deandre Johnson?

-JS

Predict the next commitment...

We have an idea. Not going to ruin anyone's moment though.

-JS

All I'll say is the Vols should add a name to their commit list soon enough ... and before anyone speculates it's not the in-state top targets like Baron or Mays.

-JS

Do y'all even Beethoven bras? All of today's music has its roots in the classical genre.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

@Bassmaster_Vol simonton says we should have a commit soon and it’s not Mays/baron

Cowan?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Don't we still have to have some guys leave to make room for the incoming freshmen?

 

[InVOLuntary]

Another poster posted this in the basketball forum. Since some of you don't venture over there, I thought I'd bring it over here. A cool article from Marvin West.

Bunch of uncultured savages up in here.

 

[SugarCC]

Cowan?

He's my guess...

 

[bignewt]

All I gathered from this thread yesterday is that there is a lot of really, really bad musical tastes on VolNation. Our Achilles heel?

 

[AngryButchJones]

Man, another commit soon would be nice. Would liven up this place.

 

[bignewt]

My vote is that it is Ratledge.

I know. Can you believe no one mentioned Creed?!? I know that’s your jam!

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I’d allow it

 

[bignewt]

Well I also missed your usual horrible take on what the GOAT is. Milli Vanilli maybe?

Buddy, no. Billy Gilman ftw!

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Weird Kirkland wasn't mentioned...he leaving?

Thought he had another year of eligibility, but they mention Taylor & Bituli but not DK...

If he wasn't mentioned then he's a fur sure starter

 

[GoVolsDR]

Lol.
Barstool Sports

During the team interview process, I wonder if he got asked the "are you gay" or "is your mom a prostitute question" by the Packers.

Instead of asking these stupid questions, NFL teams would probably be better of going with the Google interview, and instead of asking to see their code, ask them to draw up game situations on the white board.

 

[bignewt]

Buddy, no. Billy Gilman ftw!

had to google that one but yeah, sounds right.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

He was the jam in the 90s!

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

Imo...the next commit is the RB from Michigan...Boone.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I don’t have a goat band. My playlist has a wide variety. It has everything from Stapleton to Adele, to Aerosmith, Guns and Roses, Elvis, MJ, Cash, Jones, and many others.

Right now tho I listen to a lot of Sean Rowe
