Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[chargervol]

-Chaney should be an improvement over Helton.
-Chaney is not a flight top OC.
- Yes they should ball out.
- Wait and see mode
- Real system? It is basically the same.
- Yes 2nd year in 3-4 should help. But all new DL may negate some...
- Hmm ok, time will tell.
- Time will...ya know
- Yup, stud corners.
- Maybe, unproven to do so.

Fwiw, all your reasonings are all the positives, what about the negatives? Those writers have to consider all aspects. Imo we should improve in most areas, but may see a step back at DL. A lot of unproven areas and will wait to see if S&C is finally worth a flip. Wasn't much better last year. Surely we have to get back to skrong eventually??!

Hahaha succumb to the numbing in-between of mediocrity

The Force Awakens was fantastic!

Spoiler

but I can’t believe they killed Han! That upset me

 

[benholt06]

Note the trend for this cycle: Recruits are leaving their actual favorite out of their top 2s and top 3s to keep the drama attached to their announcements.

Interesting.

You are going to hate TLJ lol.

Holy moly post from 247

I've not seen this mentioned. JG said Ty recently ran a high 4.3s 40. First of all, that's smokin. Also, Pruitt mentioned DWA running a 4.6.​

​

Mod Response:

Those are the two numbers I've heard from Pruitt

We're doin some serious offseason work.


15-0

Didn’t really need the spoiler tag on that one. I think that was pretty much talked about by everybody with Carrie Fischer’s death.

I’m guessing those are probably hand timed

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

This image points to the talent disparity in TN compared to FL and GA. Compare where they rank in their respective state.

I remember hearing that Ford asked for that to happen and that he wouldn't be in the movie unless it did? That could be a total farce, but I'm with you. I hated that ending for him.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

I think Ty is a legit 4.4 guy all day, wouldn't surprise me if he ran in the 4.3s at the combine with a few weeks of sprint training.


And if DWA runs in the 4.6s at the combine he'll be an early rounder for sure with his size, assuming he does as well as I expect him to under Chaney.

 

[drvenner]

There was truth in the Haney article and a **** ton of opinion and unnamed sources. So much of a hit piece, the accuracy became irrelevant.

Even worse, he was writing things that would drive recruits away in droves while working for a company that covered recruiting.
Dumbass deserved to be fired.

Thank you. Excellent, rational riposte.

 

[drvenner]

Since we missed on King, does JP let one loose tonight?

SIAP, but did you see him at Taco Bell or Krystal?

They were using the sundial that Butch left behind

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Ubben is, by far, the best Journalist that covers UT sports. He's informative, insightful, doesn't deal too much in fluff-filled journalism (i.e. "...according to unnamed sources within the SEC..."), and he has decent enough sources that feed him good information that you can take what he writes as being as factually-based as anyone in the media.

I haven't paid for UT information for over a decade (thanks to this site, @Freak) but I am seriously considering subscribing to him...he's damn good.

He is fair, he does not pump sunshine, but he doesn't pump doom either...unlike John Adams. A true objective journalist is worth his weight in gold these days.

I'm hype for Williamson too. That kind of length and athleticism is hard to find.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Lazy article IMO

Don't click on it

 

[RiotVol]

I know we are all in the midst of a riveting theological discussion, but can we talk about position this Williamson kid that just committed is gonna play, and what that says about what who we're going to pursue going forward?

I feel like Will Byers.

Don't click on it

I remember when folks were writing articles like this about Alabama 15 years ago.

Don’t bring that crap in here
