Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Glitch]

Why does everyone keep saying we "need" Banks back? Didn't mills or somebody close to the program say he was already back?

 

[VOLSONLY]

Who was better the last 6 games of the year?
Jake Fromm or JG?

Yes

 

[RoSmitty12]

Brandon Staley new Rams DC. He was reason we got Cordarrelle a few years back when they both came over from Hutchinson. Heck of a career path for him past few years

 

[Lane Train 4]

Where does Chief end up? Mississippi State maybe?

 

[BruinVol]

Easily Fromm.

I don’t think it was easily either side. After the Tenn game Fromm was just awful. Very inaccurate.

Last 6 games.
Fromm-
5-1
91-181 under 50%
196 yards per game
13 TDS
2 picks
With a very good bowl game

JG
6-0
78-135-58% completions
208 yards a game
8 TDS
4 picks
a bad bowl game

if you take out the bowl game clearly JG was better than Fromm. It’s a darn draw with the way they played down the stretch imo.

Wow

What freshman power back? Whitehead will never be a running back. Do not see Tee as a RB either but I could be wrong on him we will see. JJ Peterson is not a football player. He will never see the field at UT again imo.

Tell that to Pruitt. He's already said Whitehead was recruited as a RB. Just hide and watch.

 

[RoSmitty12]

Wow

In 2015 he coached my roommate at John Carroll (DIII) as DC. Few years later NFL DC. Unreal

Of course he was LOL! Takes about 30 seconds of watching film for me to realize that was a lie.

Awesome story
especially for a guy that was to me just a token hire along for the ride
Good for him proving me wrong

 

[GiggerVol]

Been any updates or tidbits coming out on any additional staff changes or possible rb coach? Been awful quiet on that front it seems.

Maybe after NSD?

 

[GiggerVol]

I would love to see the whole ol unit wearing cowboy hats during the Vol Walk and I think it would be great to hear the band crank up the theme from Rawhide or some other great western show or movie and perform it during warmups etc.

Neither were good but Fromm played against much, much better defenses the last 6 games.

It's fine for those that do

But I don't get the infatuation with needing a theme for players.

Yes he played better defenses but played awful against them.
He was also beyond awful against mizzu the only common opponent in those 6 games

 

[Sleegro]

Like Missouri? Where he went 13 for 29 for 173?

 

[SmokinBob]

I don't think I've checked a phone vm in a decade. I currently have 43,182 unread emails on my personal account. And there is at least one picture in every room of my house hanging a little crooked.

 

[RiseToTheTop]

Smart had Fromm, Fields even Eason but ends up begging Jamie Newman to come play for them behind no OL. No big media member wants to mention it though bc hes the golden boy.

 

[Catbone]

Missouri has a top 10 pass defense. Yes I'm aware JG had a great game against them. But I still stand by what I said. Fromm is simply a better QB than JG.
