Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

I’m thinking it has to be a Smoky Gray Dobbs Jersey for me.

Chuck Webb in Orange would be my second choice, but I can only get one, and with the Gray color retired I like the unique place it has in Tennessee history and it will always remind me of thumping Florida like a drum

Now I wish I’d ordered a Dobbs!

FWIW, 247 now has their team talent rankings posted for 2019. They have us at #14 in the nation and #5 in the SEC, behind Alabama, Georgia, LSU, and Auburn.

According to PFF, Feleipe Franks graded out at 44.0 for his performance in his 57 snaps against Miami. It was the lowest score for anyone on the Florida team, on either side of the ball.

The Florida secondary graded out pretty poorly too and that’s surprising considering Herbstreit was hyping the Gator cornerbacks as perhaps the best tandem in the country. Wilson graded at 52.8 on 71 snaps and Henderson scored 54.6 on the same number of snaps. Dean at Nickel got a grade of 53.1 on 50 snaps and Taylor at safety earned a grade of 57.5 on 67 snaps.

Those dance lessons with Dan are paying off.

Man, it feels like the local media is quick to judge on Bryce

5-7 is possible, though I think unlikely to happen. 6-6 or 7-5 much more likely imo.

I’ll say this though too: People need to stop counting BYU in the Win column alongside Georgia St & UAB.

They’re not a cupcake. They play good football. We should win the game, but it’s not a given. We better show up ready to play.

Agreed in BYU. Their FPI is #43. Vandy is #48. BYU will be coming off game agaist whats supposed to be a pretty good Utah team, so hopefully that works in our favor.

I can’t fathom going through the past decade and not thinking 5-7 is on the range of possible outcomes.

All it takes is the two lines being ass - and we don’t know that they aren’t yet.

This was before Gooden was injured, Bituli had his knee scopped, Solomon was expected to be clears, and Bryce Thompson with off on his girlfriend. However, Florida looked like a train wreck against Miami.

Bituli will be fine. Will miss one game at most unless something else happens. Looks like Thompson might just miss a game or two, too.

Aikman got this twitter thing figured out. Now if we can just get him to sh!t on Wolken...

"Behind Center"
"at Quarterback"
"on the football field"
"throwing the football"
"or handing it off"
"or possibly getting sacked"

“Most likely getting sacked”

Mehrable

Naw...Mehlan is meh, but he is a good coach in some ways..but Vrabel is a horrible coach, he is not meh, he is blech.

 

[Glitch]

Off topic, but the Titans offense is so boring. I think the Titans move on from Mariota after this year.

My youngest daughter and I went. She isn't a huge football fan but needed some one on one daddy time. Between the rain and the boring preseason football, we left before the end of the first quarter.

Titans fans should prepare for another disappointing season.

And yet, they still won the game. No matter....UF can look like a poorly coached middle school team against the sisters of the poor, but put some UT orange in front of them and they become the '62 Packers.

Going back to Thailand for a couple of weeks tomorrow evening. You clowns try to keep it in the road while I’m gone.

Colts are going to intentionally suck for two years and get Trevor Lawrence. Cause Tennessee

Well I surely hope Tennessee sucks more because I want him in Nashville.

Bass I meant to report back on my jersey purchase. It only took two weeks to get here (a week of which I can only assume was on ox-back). It is high quality. Manning was spelled correctly, nothing was put on crooked, and the seams looked great.

@SmokinBob

Do you mind posting where you got the gray jersey ? Thx
