Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[Ace]

Hardee's in Seymour and South Knox closed also. I think the Hardee's in Clinton is still open or it appeared to be last week.

Clinton was open on Friday
I saw the Karns Hardee’s closed too. I always thought they had a good location and it always seemed busy

Just got a top 50 b-ball recruit! Boom!

BOOM!!!!!

Tennessee needs to give an "ON FIELD" reason for some of these kids to commit.. That first game against South Carolina looms large imo.

Didn’t they just lose half their team lol

They also have JG 2.0 starting For them...I like our odds

Obv

I remember commercials, I think, that talked about Burger Chef and Jeff. Could be wrong as I am getting pretty old.

Iously, I'm the older fart

I think 247 has the roster talent rankings updated now and Tennessee is moved up to #12 while Florida is at #16. We've also moved above Auburn. We could be above 900 and climbing after the 2021 class is signed. #GBO

Man, I’m a fan of the new BB commit. Awesome video, equally awesome mustache.

The militant vegans ruined McDonalds french fries. They used to use a mixture of oils that included some beef tallow, but then they had to respond to a lawsuit. Their fries are nowhere near as good.

Video is sickkkkk

Easily the best commitment video I've ever seen, by a mile. Also sounds like a kid with his head on real straight, probably straighter than most of ours.

Should mean our BCR is high enough for us to start winning the SEC. If we have another class that replaces our outgoing bluechips with more incoming bluechips we will absolutely have a roster that's able to compete for NC.

Childhood fan of LJS...then they started deep frying in congealed grease.

I grew up on congealed grease - called Crisco

Yes as long as we land over 50% for this class, we will finally join the BCR club next year. It is only the 2017 class holding us back rn. That class had 4 blue chips out of 28 commits yikes.

Clemson was right at 50% BCR when they played Alabama in that first NCG.

Heat it up til it’s fully liquified and it’s great.

 

[Devo182]

3 is what I'm rooting for. I'm not going to be in "Fahr the coach" mode if we only win 2. If we win 1 there are some serious red flags.

What percentages are you giving us in those games? By my odds, there's a 50% chance we don't win more than 1 of the 5.

Aub 40%
TAMU 40%
UF 30%
UGA 25%
Bama 15%

 

[Devo182]

In all honesty, none of those teams are better than they were last year. While Tennessee very likely is better. We have a shot depending on how we come out in each game. Not scared of any of those teams.

Given Tua was out most of our game, they are arguably going to be better. TAMU is expecting their best team in a while.

Really helps that Clemson is in that joke conference, tho

 

[Devo182]

We just need our Watson. Hopefully HB or KS can be that guy that transcends. Otherwise, we will have to keep building incrementally. Watson and TL were like cheat codes for Dabo and they don't come around often.

That's completely unrealistic. 2 max

Bull.

That's awesome also!!!!!... But Texas, USC, and FL ST???

Yes as long as we land over 50% for this class, we will finally join the BCR club next year. It is only the 2017 class holding us back rn. That class had 4 blue chips out of 28 commits yikes.

We are actually over 50% right now with 48/85 players being blue-chips. The issue is that in the past all of the outside analysis on the BCR didn't include transfers for multiple reasons (prospects being overrated initially, transfers generally having less time to acclimate to the schemes, amount of time it would take to include transfers, etc).

So really there isn't enough concrete analysis on teams that have achieved a BCR higher than 50% due to transfers. You are right that we will meet the conditions to crest the BCR threshold after the 2017 class falls off for recruiting classes, (assuming that people from the 2017 class don't remain on the roster in this year of free eligibility), but if someone were to be the first below the BCR threshold to win a NC it's much more likely for it to be a team that clears the BCR threshold "unofficially" by taking in highly-rated transfers.

As it pertains to our team, our BCR doesn't include Cade Mays, Deangelo Gibbs, Brandon Kennedy, Aubrey Solomon, and likely doesn't include J.J. Peterson and Bryce Thompson ( the last two were such late additions they weren't initially added to the classes on NSD if I recall correctly).

The common thread being - all fairly recently had a championship HC and have wasted talent ever since. Sounds familiar...but no longer. This is our stop, finally, I hope

 

[Paper_Towel]

Hope so but don’t have a good feeling on it. Navy didn’t do contact practices and look what BYU did to them

We’ve had contact in practice though. Nearly every practice. GTFO you fear monger.
