Exactly.

I was split because I think it's good they supported him. But if it were me, I wouldn't have posted the question but instead went with
"We've received several questions regarding JP and he..."

Support without the crap.

Yep that’s BS

The worst possible thing for a 19 year old kid struggling to make higher education work so far away from home is to make him feel like everyone thinks he’s an idiot and doomed.

We’ve got to fix the way we talk about this.

It's not just higher ed. HS is basically designed so people dont fail..

Is he not in college currently?

 

[SLICKYINC]

Didn't JJP sire an offspring in high school?

Lol

Wtf is he talking about ?

Not sure the relevance

Seen a lot of JJP bust talk. Let me give you my two cents there.
1. The coaching staff as of this evening is still very high on him. He has the raw talent and athleticism to be truly great..
2. That being said he isn’t the sharpest tool in the shed and will need more coaching and time based on what i know to get ready
3, He will see playing time this year and should get progressively better as the year goes on. Next year will be the oh **** moment though IMO when he lives up to the hype.

Thanks for your input.

My wife made waffles this morning out of cinnamon roll protein powder. Holy crap they’re good! 127 cals for 23 grams of protein

The relevance shouldn't be to hard to understand but apparently you need it spelled out. JJP has a lot more going on his life than just football.

 

[jakez4ut]

best thing i've seen all weekend is the blurb about Trey Smith engaging with another lineman.

Ok. I doubt his child is in Knoxville but to your point football can provide so much for him and his family

Should apply to all of them. Seen a lot of people saying stuff like this about JJP or JG, just to open a different thread and see the same poster trash talking an OL, RB or receiver. Hell, I've probably been guilty.

Everyone is righteous when it's a player they like but funny how quickly it changes when it's not.

Even more reason for his head to be somewhere else a lot of the time. No one doubts what football can do for this young mans future. The point is, he's still young and trying to cope with everything he has going on in life right now. It's going to take more time than what fans want to give him.

Nope. Had to redshirt as a freshman. Definitely a dumb bust. Most kids aren't ready right away.

On Keyton

• On the opposite end of the spectrum, freshman receiver Ramel Keyton had a quiet spring and has been running near the rear of the receivers during drills. Summer arrivals like To’o To’o and Darnell Wright have not done the same during practice. The receivers are deep and will be a strength in 2019, but it’s clear Keyton has some ways to go if he’s going to get on the field this year.

—Ubben

We’re stacked at WR this year. Might be a good year to redshirt.

Post the recipe or STHeckU.

Also I'm cranky because I have a procedure tomorrow and am not allowed to eat anything today. Wrong time to see that as waffles are top five breakfast loves for me.

Edit: Maybe hold off until tomorrow afternoon to post the recipe...

Got you and agree. I thought you were going somewhere else with the op so my apologies

The quote from bituli about toot and other freshman lbs was also encouraging.
