Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Glitch]

Pretty much always have CC on for everything except sports. Got a kid that's 6 and also our HVAC is loud as hell.


It's great for Netflix and scripted shows/movies. Terrible for live stuff as it legit appears someone is trying to guess/type the CC as things are rolling.

I have to use CC because I can't hear for crap and my family doesn't want to watch TV with the volume at 50. On the plus side, I can read really fast now.

Not BGS. He's part of the "He Gone" movement (Goners for short). They believe that nobody is actually really here and never has been.

They schedule conventions where nobody actually shows up. In school instead of raising their hands to say "present" they say "gone".

Best post this year.

I couldn't stay interested post Ragnar. Those early seasons though were bitchin.

I get that, but Ivar and Bjorn's stories have kept me interested.

The last episode surprised me. I did not expect any of it.

If Bailey is an immediate impact QB this team will be in the hunt for the Sec east. What a wonderful way to let him get his sea legs behind that offensive line.

We should be dominant up front.

I think once they got rid of the "Warrior Bishop" character it got a lot better. To me, they just didn't seem to know what to do with the character. Much better scripts now.

I stopped watching during the season where Ragnar went off the rails with the asian slave girl. I saw part of an episode the other night where they were choosing a king and Largetha was kicking azz.

dude was our MVP, bullet dodged.

Not yet. Like 6 episodes in on cable. I record it. Kinda wish I went the download route to get the british version. They edit a lot of the NSFW stuff out on the history channel.

Oh really?!? I may and wait until that’s all available at some point. I don’t have cable and I don’t have great streaming in the sticks. Also, when I have a show or movie I like, I want to see it with best picture quality

Hawley, Donald Glover and Larry David are probably the best working in TV right now. I'm sure I'm missing somebody.

I'd add Vince Gilligan and Damon Lindelof to this list.

 

[SLICKYINC]

I was able to follow it once I watched a few, kind of like reading trainspotting, your brain adapts.

I never was able to regularly keep up with what Alfie was saying..

It feels good to be back. I’ve only waited a little over a decade.

Didn’t realize he was even considering leaving early. Doesn’t really make sense for kickers. Half the colllege star kickers don’t do **** in nfl for some reason anyway.

Cimaglia for Groza ‘20

 

[bignewt]

Gilligan for sure. Armando Iannucci(Veep,etc) is another although most of his work is in film.

I don't think he was, I think he heard people ask enough (because he's so good, it's a logical question) that he just decided to make a post to remove doubt.

 

[shoney]

I wonder what it would take for an OL to win the Heisman. I guess they would need to never lose a one-on-one and possibly pancake block on every down.

A Heisman moment like this would get my vote.

23/27 from FG for 85.2% & 35/35 for 100% on PATs put him in an interesting spot. He also probably already graduated, most the special teams types knock out their degrees in 3 and start grad/master programs.

 

[Vols410]

Opening with Charlotte and Oklahoma is brutal.

If you think about it, they usually drop 1 and I think we’ll be the best team on their schedule next year.

They played 1 score games against Texas, KSU (loss), ISU, Baylor (twice), and TCU this year, and they’re losing Hurts next year.

Not calling a win, but I think they’re significantly closer to us than Alabama/UGA are right now.

 

[chargervol]

yeah, like i said, i get it.

i'm just not convinced that we don't get improved QB play this season. be it one of the returners, or HB lighting it up.

obviosuly, if we don't, that makes things much much harder.

i just don't see any 'sure things' in the transfer market, especially those that could come in, and be that much of a difference maker in an abbreviated off season with a new team and staff.

i think we're finally to the point where some consistency on the staff and returning experience pays off.....

I'm with you on this. I see zero "sure things" out there and programs doing better ( like Ga yuck) will get 1st pick among the "fairly decent". Hate it but it's a QB's last shot to shine and I can't blame them for going the established route.

This leaves us with lower end "decently good" that has to learn our offense or needs some work, etc.. which I believe already describes some in our QB room.

With no sure things available, were just burning a spot ala Chryst and raising the potential of a transfer.
But Chryst was actually needed for depth. This cycle, we would just be trading apples for apples but losing a spot, imo.

Especially since we didn't sign a kicker for this class.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Palmer played well this year, plus we get Brandon Johnson back, who is pretty reliable when it comes to catching the ball. I'm not as worried about WR like most are. Yes, we lose two great receivers, but I think we will be fine there. I'm more worried about LB.
