Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[ClasslessVol]

I dont see HB starting unless there is a complete meltdown from JG/BM and a injury...

Sorry but I just don’t see JG having a big enough jump for us to succeed more than last year. Like you said, it’s all mental with him but I just don’t really know how that changes in less than a year. Especially without any offensive guru coming in(with Chaney coming in last year I thought he’d improve). He hasn’t shown any flashes of him being a consistent QB in the SEC. I wouldn’t be confident in him winning us any games this season. One big mistake versus a team like Kentucky or Mizzou and the tide could turn quickly. There’s no guarantee HB15 will be a star, but if he’s looking any close to a 5th year senior in practice I don’t see how you don’t ride with him especially in a season like this.

What specifically are you asking about in that regard?

Where’s Banks? Asking for a friend..

 

[Wickman]

Team is looking surprising good and quite sharp so far in the work they are doing. The coaches were caught off guard at how good the kids have looked to date. I am getting a very positive vibe internally right now which I have not gotten before. TIFWIW

Are any of the TE’s ready to step up?

Per Rob Lewis:

I have talked to a couple of people that I trust tonight who are close to the situation and I’m led to believe that no one, including Yves Pons himself knows what he’s going to do.

Not having a combine, not being able to work out for scouts has made an already difficult decision for a potential 2nd round guy even more difficult.

He is pushing it to the last minute.

I still find it very impressive he is in this position. A potential 2nd rd guy with a year left of eligibility...moved all the way from France ranked as a top-150 guy (which is not all that high in basketball)...looked like a newborn animal still learning how to simply walk when he arrived. The same as Fulky. They were both borderline laughable when they handled the ball, shot, and passed when they first played...then just a few years under Barnes and they are legitimate battleship destroyers out there on the court.

Barnes got that magic touch. I love having pure ball coaches 🗣

Don’t talk to me about PISS...boy wonder! You’ve been all guns blazing since last night. Challenging anybody that doesn’t sign on to your telethon...before they even post anything! Maybe start your own board and only allow on those that meet your standards and expertise? Would save yourself on cloaking in beloved alma mater passion fees. And no...you’re never going to touch me.

Didn’t realize. My b. Just trying to talk football. We can just let it fade back into COVID talk

Also, Banks.

When the TV show Ballers becomes real life...

 

[Atlanta VOL]

Also, Banks.

Force to be reckoned with....simple as that. Guy has proved himself and he will contribute without question.

Think Fulk and Pons can be Admiral/Grant 2.0, or a reasonable facsimile, if they are both back?

When are we firing Weinke?

One thing we know is we can't count out a JG meltdown/BM injury..

 

[TrippieRedd]

Disappointing

 

[Catbone]

@Atlanta VOL one more question...

As of today, does your gut say we will actually play this new schedule and be able finish it?

 

[Smokeytom]

JG needs an ayahuasca retreat to get that mind right.

Any recruiting nuggets? Any surprises in the works?

 

[Devo182]

Anybody here live or have lived in los angelas? May have something in the works

No but my sister was out there for 15 years. Visited a few times, quite the place. Great shows, stand-up, weather, food. Very big, traffic, smog. Hit or miss overall, but I can see why so many want to live in that region. The weather and palm trees are something else. And if you are single, then welcome to heaven. Even the McDonald's waitress will be an 11 in the right parts of town.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

When are we firing Weinke?

 

[VolsCigarMan]

Question? When does fall practice start?

 

[Volsurance]

Go vols and I believe this guy:

Evil Empire of the left exposed re Plaquenil

You didn’t upset me...bud. But about that annoying part?

Problem is in the other head
