Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I hate how my opinion of Fulmer has changed drastically over the last year

Five months..

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Doesn't matter, if they feel they need to get on social media and # to get noticed show them the door.

Nothing about wanting out of your NLI has anything to do with social media, you request it with the school you signed and let the AD and HC handle it.

 

[jp1]

I doubt he’s going to have RBs that have to be under 200lbs but I think they have to be more of the scat back versatile type guys. 200-210 is likely his dream back that can do it all

So what you are saying is you are guessing here?

 

[VFLPastor]

Ok. A word for...
Players that don't want to play here.
Coaches who can't get on board.

1:20-1:33

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Everybody else is still paying. No wonder they want out.

Since he schemed to get the head coaching job when Majors was in the hospital in 92. But hey, he got us a championship in 98 so all's good..

 

[Unconditional Surrender]

Salter fund over 25k now.

How high does this go?

Can we get in more trouble for this?

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

I don’t understand the Osovet love. He has done nothing here. I would rather bring in a whole new staff and ones that have worked together to get this thing rolling. UCF offensive staff + new DC who gets to pick his defensive hires to coach that side up.

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

It’s a hard transition..... need to get some coaches in here and calm the players down

Wish we could have kept Jay.

should have started one for JP's buyout after the Kentucky game.. 12 million would have been raised well before A&M and we'd avoided the investigation

Joe O has an in with JUCO guys.. I think that is where we are going to have to live this upcoming spring to fill out our roster, and he could play a key role. Just playing devil's advocate

He's one of our best recruiters, finished 33rd in the country.

Aaron Willis
KaTron Evans
Tiyon Evans
Miles Campbell
Trinity Bell

All credited to him.

Also seemed kinda like and outsider on the past staff. Maybe he fits better on this one. I have no issues with him remaining.

Lol

Aren’t we all here ?

 

[Batman1948]

People are saying Heupel’s style of offense hurts the defense because of the amount of time the defense is on the field. While this may be true, our offense was so bad last year that the defense was on the field far more than they should have been. This won’t be anything new for our defense, we’ll just have more points this time.

Exactly------scoring TD's in 2 minute increments is much better than going 3 and out in 2 minute increments

 

[PA Vol]

No SEC East teams, no Bama, no Ole Miss(because I don't want Kiffin getting him)

And no Oklahoma.

But sure, we offered a full ride, housing, meals, gear, tutors, personal trainers, and the opportunity to play big time college football (and Happy Meals). Now because kids are committing to coaches that come and go, the University and fans get left out to dry. I have no issue with setting restrictions on transfers. It's a two-way street, even more so when we start paying athletes.

 

[tnvols72]

I think that’s what Velus was saying in his tweet. They are going to take a stand to keep Tee.

How do you salvage this? Say he keeps Tee. How awkward is that relationship going to be?

Tee is more problems than he is worth.

 

[DustyRockSolid]

I'm in on this, too, at 2k shares. Interested to see if there's a spike after the markets close since crypto is trade 24/7.

We'll see.

Yeah I think word is that people have talked to investors overseas to keep it rising overnight or something

We are going to be just fine at running back.

Smaller backs:
Small (193lbs)
Wright (185lbs)

Bigger backs:
Evans (215lbs)
Brown (217lbs)
Hodge (216lbs)

Possible backs:
Beckwith (215)
Whitehead (230)
[Weights according to recruiting page]

Small and Evans are the only ones with some college experience, so it's hard to know what we have. But we have depth. I think Heupel will scheme around the best players at the position.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

HC - Josh Heupel
Co-OC/TE - Alex Golesh
AHC/OL - Glen Elarbee
QBs - Joey Halzle
WRs -
RBs-
ST -

I'd assume Coach O could fill any of the 3 spots left there. Assumption would be Kodi Burns is your WR coach. So O for special teams or running backs.

 

[lfvol]

Thank you. I call it like I see it, and if the facts don't support an opinion, they don't support it. I think the Chancellor did a commendable job running the search professionally and having a contingency plan. I think she made a sound AD hire, and I think she's giving him the support and time he needs to make the changes required. I've commented multiple times on those things. Seeing both sides of something or someone doesn't fit some agendas, though.

LA, it has been reported that DW excluded Jimmy Sexton clients from the search. Or, at minimum, did not pursue any. That’s a huge subset of the market. Thoughts?

Agreed, but Wright is 200 or so now. He took his covid off-season to bulk up a bit.

How many total college carries among the whole group? Less than 20?

That's not "fine."

Obviously just now seeing Brown wants out of his NLI. That's fine, I still think we have plenty of depth and talent at the position. I'd be more worried about getting additions to the defensive side of the ball.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Serious question...would we have won a natty with Franklin within those 9 years? I think we would have at least made the playoffs.

I don't.
