Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[eVOLve]

It's not just a today thing. Between the largely benevolent "ESPN hates us" (because we couldn't realize that we sucked) from the Dooley years, to how tribal things got re: Butch and more recently JG, to now hating on a pretty good beat writer because of select tweets and articles as y'all ignore the rest of his work.. this forum has gone downhill.

But crazy people don't know they're crazy and the dumb think they're way smarter than they actually are. And they have strength in numbers here.

I think a good portion of volnation liked Ubben up until he, quite obviously, started intentionally ruffling the fans feathers just to gain clicks. He knows damn well he's taking jabs just to gain attention.

Yes, thank you for providing that context. Didn't realize it. That totally changed everything I've said today.

This is just my perception of things right now. After the 2 bad losses early on, the board turned extremely negative with all of the FF folks and trolls. It hasn’t recovered from that yet and it seems like we’ve started eating our own. At some point in the near future it‘ll turn back. Just have to get past the “our recruiting sucks now” crowd.

Well there you go! Glad you’re feeling better.

That Mike Leach?

Yeah he hit a rough patch between texas tech and Wazzou.

Lol at being skeered of khaki britches

We wearing the Orange Britches?

Need Bama to lose today. If they don't, they're gonna end up in the playoff.

So, per one of the SB Nation guys, Odom wanted a vote of confidence from his athletic director after the UT game and the AD didn’t give it to him so Odom told everyone on his staff they were being fired and to start looking for other jobs.

Only thing is, Missouri was prepared to bring them back but that pissed them off so bad that they decided to fire them in reaction.

#31 on Kentucky tried to fake an injury and the refs just ignored him

 

[chargervol]

Agree. As the smart ones, you and I need to hold the dumb people on here accountable.

So proud
Always important to point out how much smarter and better your way is, when calling out everyone else on their "superiority" issues.
Even I learn if given enough time.

Okay, Morans, please hold down the fort. I'm headed to the convention center to watch my daughter dance at the Fantasy of Trees. I usually miss the Iron Bowl and VANDY game, but I would not miss her dancing for anything. GO BIG ORANGE!

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Ohio State defense definitely is overrated.

This is the toughest game they've played all year.

A slaw B10 team overrated you say, who woulda thunk it

I for one will not have you speak of Orange Defense this way. He has brought a lot of information to this board about the greater Dyersburg metro area.

Sounds like an example of letting emotions **** up your business

Vols was autocorrected to Volts

Dog emoji is for JJ, the dawg

 

[JCP201]

Cool Story Bro: First time my little grand daughter attended Neyland. VOLS fans around her found out, and when JJ came by on the VOL walk, everyone in that section started yelling. He came over and spoke to her and high fived. She was thrilled. VOLS fans are awesome.

SC playing dirty now.

If the game is a close game I'm ok with auburn winning. If it's a blowout, I hope its bammer running up the score. If for nothing else but the cluster I get to witness from Auburn fans here and their lynch mob for the gus bus.

 

[Catbone]

If GA was playing anyone else they would get destroyed today. Get their ass out of the top 4. Pathetic.

Any ranked team would be beating them badly

“The move was largely expected, as Missouri had begun vetting candidates in the weeks leading up to the final game. The early read on the Missouri search is that it’ll lean toward an experienced coach with a strong history on the offensive side of the ball.”

Odom is a good DC. I was surprised he kept Mizzou's D as quality as they were when Kul was there. They may not miss anything else from Odom but I do think they'll miss the defenses he produced. As bad as they were on offense this year, they had a top 10 defense.
