Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[mrorange211]

You come on here and post stuff without revealing anything about your source until later when you mention he or she has been correct the last couple of times. Your info seems pretty inflammatory and you wonder why people don't believe you. Personally, I think you have a source and you believe him or her, but that is only my opinion. Others are bound to have different ones.

I've been posting here a long time. I went for 5+ years without having any sources, but I got lucky this last year. I'll leave it at that. I only give stuff out that I hear cause I think you guys would want to know like I do. It's no wonder, however, that no one comes here to post information. I've been called a troll, etc. and for what? Posting information from a source who has been reliable in the past?

A little break from the madness:

Best, worst case scenarios for every SEC team in 2019

If we beat Vandy, SC, Kentucky, and Vandy, it will be a successful step towards where we want to be IMO. I know people gonna say "yOu SuPpoStA bEat DoSe TeAmS", but we haven't been doing that in a long while.

Yeah but what croots are we getting?

Just cut the carbs and sugars and you will see it melt off. I lost 140 6 years ago doing that and have never looked back

Yeah, I can usually do pretty good on cutting out sugars. Carbs are harder, I think adding in the exercising will help me see results faster though and that typically keeps me on track more.

I was 280 in December 2018 & am now down to 239 as of this morning. Girlfriend & I hit the gym 3x a week & Ive been counting calories. It definitely sucked in the beginning and idk why but the weight has pretty much fallen off with portion control and counting. You got this!

My biggest issue is I drink a lot...so if I drink anything other than water I pack in a ton of empty calories/carbs but I also get tired of drinking JUST water...

 

[VolGee4]

People doing different jobs and such. They are all well compensated. But we are a football school, he knew that when he came here.

There's give and take on both sides. I am sure Rick understands that football is really important at UT. But hypothetcally, when you have turned the basketball program around and gotten to #1, you shouldn't have to beg and plead for $50k more when you are paying two assistant football coaches more than a million dollars.

 

[mrorange211]

Did we win the bidding war?

imo, no.

 

[dwaugh]

I've been at 270 for a bit. Trying to get to 250 in the next month or two. Then I'll move my goal to 225. 225 is probably my best realistic weight. I've lost down to 262 ish just the last week from watching my carbs.

Pretty much the same for me. I'm stuck in the 265 range, down from 277, so need to make some more changes to get to the 225 goal.

If your "source" said Rick Barnes has been hired by UCLA for 8M a year, then you should have the common sense to know initially that is crazy.

To be fair I never mentioned your name. There's literally like 5 guys in here right now claiming inside sources. All in good fun

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Tracking sucks. Did it for like 6 years and haven't been able to do it again.

I hate it. Wish I could learn to love it.

yep. same here. i don't really "not eat" what i want. but i don't eat anywhere near as much of it.

biggest thing i had to change was eating habits when travelling. i travel a lot. so that was always my excuse. now i go to the grocery store on Monday when i arrive whereever i am going, by my food for the week and just stick to that. ive even brought food home a couple times....lol.

but it works. and it keeps me away from fried fast food....which is big for me.

@Bassmaster_Vol sorry to bring it all up here theres just a lot in the bible i find hard to understand tbh

That's what the Church(Christian community) is for. To help each other understand

 

[mrorange211]

With the desperation that UCLA has been showing plus bonuses and incentives, not really.

 

[mrorange211]

Yeah but what croots are we getting?

Rodgers, Hodge, and Rateledge are ours to lose unless, of course, you've already declared "he gone".

 

[Jimmy Football]

I've been called a troll, etc. and for what?

"I am the link."

Stuff like that makes people think you're trolling.

And you roasted people who claimed to have sources during the Gruden fiasco. How was that any different?

 

[Catbone]

That's what the Church(Christian community) is for. To help each other understand

Yeah ive been to maaaany churches with sometimes vastly different interpretations so thats what makes it difficult

 

[MoCo_Vol]

8 million would be the highest paid CBB, you think UCLA would throw that at Barnes who has NEVER even played in a championship game when there are quite a few HC that have actual trophies in their cases?

I think UCLA could/would throw out big boy bucks...but I just don't think it would be for Barnes.

 

[shoney]

You couldn't pay me to live in that State. The taxs woooooo! Got a friend who lives there trying to get out of Cal.

What if someone would pay you 6 million to live out there? H*** I'd consider North Korea for that amount of money, but my wife would slap some sense into me.

 

[BearCat204]

With the desperation that UCLA has been showing plus bonuses and incentives, not really.

Yes, really. There isn't a program out there that will pay Rick Barnes 8M to coach there. Which you do realize that would be the second highest among coaches and only second to Cal. 8M is an absurd number. I get it, you got some guy who did this or that and promises you he got the connection. Whoever you are talking to isn't as connected as you think.

 

[Ron Swanson]

Go get TX Tech coach if he leaves.

He’s not leaving. Got himself and staff a raise is all.

 

[mrorange211]

"I am the link."

Understandable, but I think this case is a bit different because I didn't intentionally lead VOLS fans on for weeks with absolute BS. I get what you're saying, however.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Coke Zero my friend. The nectar of heaven

I partake friend, and agree. This latest push will be easier I think, the wife is finally "on board" and has herself already lost 30lbs she's back to pre baby/early marriage weight...and my fata$$ is trying to keep up! So having her supporting me will improve my chances.

Basically the biggest thing is work lunch, I need to stay on point here at work and not go overeat at lunch.

 

[Rishvol]

Yeah ive been to maaaany churches with sometimes vastly different interpretations so thats what makes it difficult

That's why there's maaaaany churches. Every word and every translation can have their own denomination. That's why the Church is every Christian. So we can all get together and praise and worship God, love each other, and help each other understand that Love.
