Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[SLICKYINC]

I miss the accounts of Spanish guys slinging meat at his wife’s head during her solo vacation.

THAT guy made sure he went on vacation THIS year..

 

[Dooby15]

Team kickoff meeting, first practice, Pruitt presser, painting the checkerboards and Fan Day all in the next six days-- all more important than an uncommitted commit decommitting.

Seriously, and it was a safety.

Hey when's your next meltdown?

I’ll let you know when I feel it coming on.

I feel one coming but it's not what you think..

It's his personal account......247 doesn't control it.

Fine, its your personal account. You cover VOLS on your personal account, as you can see by your bio I just copied and pasted below.

And he does cover the Vols.......that doesn't mean he can't post whatever random stuff that he wants to.

Doesn't mean I can't randomly clown him. Just like it doesn't mean you can't be cap'n save a hoe..

 

[Devo182]

well we had a decommit. so, you know, abandon ship..........

Speaking of decommits, I was looking through our list of 2020 decommits (7 in total) - here's a throwback name - Leonard Manuel - a top WR out of Florida.

His timeline:
6/17 - Commits to UT
7/17 - Decommits
11/17 - Commits to Miami
4/18 - Decommits
1/19 - Commits to UF

Since April he's received 6 CBs to UGA. Florida probably wishing he hadn't committed so "soon". Everyone else sittin back like

 

[SaguaroVols]

I'm chill AF right now.

We all saw last year that this staff can close. Not worried.

Just enjoy the season and get some W's and see the recruits fighting to get on the bandwagon.

 

[Chuckie]

The way it's been for you the past few months, I assume you're talking about a spell of diarrhea.

 

[Devo182]

.
i felt the same way scrolling thru SECN yesterday, and they're showing women's basketball, softball and baseball games on....i'm like it's freaking the week of fall camp? why no football????

It can be worse. Don't look at SECN right now. Bad things being shown.

 

[Devo182]

Omg a 16 YO won $3 million for winning a Fortnite tournament. Ughhh.

I wonder how much I can make being a top-2,000 NBA 2k player. Or maybe I'll become the top Doug Flutie Maximum Football player in the world. Should be only about 20 of us.

 

[LA Vol]

The SECN is especially unwatchable right now because they changed the takeover. Instead of letting each team take over the network for a day, ESPN is letting SECN on-air "talent" each choose the programming for a day. They're putting the focus on themselves instead of on the teams, the athletes or the games.

Might as well block out the SECN until 8/5, when the ego takeover is mercifully over.

I think the difference between this year and last is that last year we could kind of see the direction the class was going. We already had 5 star Morris in the fold. We were in deep battles for Henry and Crouch, and we all knew that Wright was a Vol lock. This year we don't have a 5 star, and we certainly don't have a silent 5 star running around like Wright last year. In fact, there's only a handful of guys that we are all probably confident end up Vols in the end: Hardy, Baron, Eason, Robinson. Other than that, it's hard to see the direction the class is going. I mean, if we land a few of Gilbert, Washington, Smalls, Sewell, Jarrett then the class is outstanding. Miss all of them, and its probably not going to be a great class at all.

You know what we didn't have at this time last year? An elite QB commit. Now you may not see him as a 5* talent...but I sure as heck do.

What day is Laura Rutledge's takeover? Asking for a friend.

Maurer committed June of last year.

Though ay-ay-ron still the best

Agreed. Although I chuckled at Mike Oxmaul.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Umm...I like Maurer and I think I'm one of his biggest supporters...but he was not elite...he ain't no Harrison Bailey. Maurer was and still is extremely raw, Bailey is much more polished at that respective stage.

Not the first time today either

 

[drvenner]

Are we seriously arguing in here about whether Rucker's twitter account is his personal account or his official 247 account.

Practice needs to start. Real, real bad.
