Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

Is there anything more boring than a B10 game?

 

[Glitch]

100%. People thinking these are all "business deals" are cute. @Glitch makes a really good point too about the benefits for the bagmen.

Yeah. Bagmen counting the stacks they don't have to hand out and end up not getting a player.

If this doesn’t make you happy to not have Franklin, I’m not sure the proof you need.

 

[utvolmaniac]

Shouldn’t have been a penalty on Key at all.

 

[Glitch]

Glitch in the Matrix

I am not.... or am I?

 

[csprig9]

Some people on here acting like UK is playing Alabama
There playing a nobody

Paint drying? Grass growing???

Nope, I was wrong. Not even those are more boring.

Will Levis (Kentucky Qb) 5 minutes left in 2nd

Looks really good. But at least we have Milton.

Genuinely curious... Did he switch teams this year, come into a polar opposite offensive system, and only have the summer and fall camp to learn the offense and build chemistry with the WRs, RBs, and OL? Not saying Milton will be great, just saying the situations are entirely different.

Because he’s tied at half against the #12 team?

Sure, and I think it’s possible Milton gels more and gets more comfortable as the season wears on. We could lose to Pitt and still wind up beating, say, Kentucky.

Or do they have to provide extra stacks bc players are more aware of what others are being offered

 

[TheRain]

Wait for the comparisons.

 

[Hardy]

No, because he has no clock management. He keeps a lousy qb in play after play, year after year. He calls the same crap plays. He calls a timeout to put 7 seconds back on the board when the other team has the ball.

 

[Glitch]

Well then those stacks will actually go to players on the team they want them to go to. Irregardless, the stacks are more efficient thanks to NIL.

 

[SouthKnoxVOL]

I know, but Bowling Green hasn’t won a game since 2019 and we struggled early, too. UK will wake up.

Well...if ULM went 0-10 last year...doesn't that mean they haven't won a game since 19'?

 

[GoVolsGo54]

That was a pretty sweet move by Grimes

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I could be wrong, but I don't think these NIL deals are all about financial ROI. A certain percentage, maybe a high percentage, are about paying recruits to sign with a program. Sure some will be busts, some will transfer, but like they (used to) say, "If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin' ". With NIL, you don't even have to cheat, but there definitely seems to be some price inflation for buying players.

That is exactly what is happening, but it is grossly inflated. It is going to turn into an all-out arms race free for all quickly.

Tulane has a pretty solid team

 

[Johnny Majors' Ghost]

Guarantano's Pac 12 offensive player of the year campaign starts tonight.

 

[Smokey123]

No, because he has no clock management. He keeps a lousy qb in play after play, year after year. He calls the same crap plays. He calls a timeout to put 7 seconds back on the board when the other team has the ball.

And yet he’s had more success the past decade than Tennessee has had in 20 years and still a top 10/15 coach

 

[csprig9]

yep
Lot of people on here couldn’t wait to bash JH, Milton, etc…. And it showed Thursday night and Friday morning

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Not only has ULM not won a game since ‘19, they hadn’t LED in a game since ‘19 until taking a 7-0 lead early today.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Wait for the comparisons.

Well hope they enjoy the turnovers…. And 20pt games
