Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Catbone]

Keon and Jaden turn the ball over way too much. But they're both NBA

 

[VolGee4]

I feel like we have just as much if not more talent than teams like Bama, LSU, and AR, but our offensive system doesn’t allow our star players to take over the game like their systems do. I really hate Barnes’ offense.

Bama and LSU have 4/5 stars all over the court. May not have lottery picks, but veteran 4 stars are more beneficial in tournament time. People don’t realize how much talent Bama has, and most are multi year players. We all know LSU had strong ass offers, and guys like Smart, Watford, and Days are multi year players. Cameron Thomas is better than expected.

Arkansas is a little different as Musselman has done a good job with transfers, but Moody is a first round NBA player. Arkansas hasn’t done more than us, and that program hasn’t made a SS since 1996.

Dumb turnovers too

 

[VolGee4]

I don’t understand how any of our guys are going to be drafted honestly. All of them have terrible ball handling skills and get pick pocketed every time they drive into the paint.....

Jordan Bone makes all those guys look like scrubs and doesn’t even start in the pros....

They get to solely hone on their craft at the NBA level. Keon showed today why he’s a lottery pick.

Jordan Bone struggled as a freshman. They have a lot more upside at the next level than Bone.

Would legalizing MJ in TN be a recruiting advantage?

Only if the other states in the SEC don’t legalize it too.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

I mean I just don’t get it. Lost a really close game to a bum team that has no talent. I wonder what would have happened if we would have played the #1 team in the SEC and the #6 team in the nation? I bet we would have gotten smoked.

Oh wait....

I don't remember Bone being very good as a freshman.

The basketball team went full mediocre after Danny White took over as AD. Dudes a curse. JK

Someone remind me why Will Wade is still coaching?

Because the NCAA is a toothless tiger.

It’s infuriating. Just like watching the same officials that the SEC trots out.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Because the NCAA is a toothless tiger.

Yet they will probably grow a set when it comes to our football team

The SEC officiating crew is easily the worst in the country

Its going to be terrible. Its much better to tell them to F off then hold your hands out and bef for mercy.

30-40 recruiting class incoming

 

[Revived2002]

National signing day in a couple of days?

Addison Nichols will be our highest commit, followed by a couple of .90’s. So yeah I’d say you’re right tbh.

Unless you stick your head in the mouth of the tiger while grabbing it's di** like we did... Smh

30-40 recruiting class incoming

30th is the floor, even Dooley had top 30 classes, every year. If Heupel can't pull a top 30 class, then go ahead and fire him. But, he will, he has Garner

We are at a lower point. 35 I guess is the final recruiting ranking.

 

[Nuctech777]

I completely out of shape. Could make one of 2 free throws.

In that pressure situation? Bullsh!t

 

[The Dog]

Agree to disagree, but anything less than a consensus top 25, will be a huge disappointment, imo. That would probably mean a losing record overall and in the SEC. Then the low point drops even further and I will probably be a miserable human being during the whole college football season thru signing day

MJ legalization > LeBron legalization

 

[backdoorcutvol]

And? So tell me, after embarrassing losses to scrub teams like OM, did you really expect us to get this far?

Alabama also got a double bye, no advantage for us.

 

[VFL1993]

The resurrection and rebranding of Banks is probably Pruitt’s biggest accomplishment while at UT. Not even kidding.
