'21 Recruiting Forum: Official Tennessee Tech Pregame/Game Thread

I wasn’t willing to bet on Vitello. I’ll bet on us losing to Scar.

Willing to bet against your own team? Come on man…

I’m out of this thread. y’all can cut each other’s wrists and cry on each other’s shoulders all you want…. While we are winning a football game 28-0 at halftime

Some people need another hobby. They’re not good at this one.

$100 let’s do this!

I’ll do $20. I don’t make enough money to throw $100 in the air a month before the game. Anything could happen between now and then to shift opinion in either direction. But today, I’ll put $20 on USC.

I think Oklahoma is way over ranked. (Nebraska 3, Oklahoma 7)

Looks like rain/ lightening may prevent us from seeing Bailey

I’m more worried about our putrid recruiting than I am how awful we will be this season. 4-8 is likely. Possibly 3-9. But we all knew that deep down.

What I didn’t expect is how bad recruiting would be. Heupel doesn’t really inspire any hope in me, and from the start I didn’t think he was a cultural fit here. That’s important.

We can fix this if we do the VN NIL deal. Collect as much as we can and distribute among the incoming class.

My grandpa liked betting on his favorite teams. He lost my dads college fund

 

[therickbol]

I think it’s laughable that there’s people that think we’re still holding back

We are playing with all our starters and opening up the playback today? You can't be that obtuse. This is about giving players opportunity to execute plays. It's like Remember the Titans. Run same plays and force them to execute.

Western Michigan up on Pitt......

Weather delay benefits Bailey.

Ohio st’s backup quarterback is a millionaire. I don’t think we can compete with that lol

Betting for your team to win? Understandable.

I agree.

lots to build on. but inconsistent push, WR's not catching catcheable balls, and costly penalties and injuries.

Gotta clean it up. Flipside is our offense has been putrid last two years. And I mean, awful. People not getting open. We're finally seeing it.

Our WR's are slow & struggle catching.

The only thing with the OL is it’s hard to tell what’s a designed run and what’s an RPO. First year in the system the OL aren’t as comfortable firing off the line on an RPO which is why we see runs going for 0 yards vs 5+ if he hands it off. Not that we’re great but we get Cooper back next week and I think they’re good enough to be serviceable.

WR so far is definitely the most concerning position group

It’s a sure thing tho? Why not take advantage of my inferior intel? Ok…$20 it is.

Alabama vs Mercer was 31-0 at half last week. We aren’t Alabama and Mercer isn’t Tn Tech but there’s a whole lot of over reaction going on right now

We do this every time we play low level teams. Nothing but an absolute gripe fest.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Yeah you can be a frustrated fan but chanting for guys who you have no idea how they have been performing is putting on clown paint.
That’s like chanting for the 3rd string Left guard to come in having not seen him practice or know if he’s even grasped anything the coaches have asked.
C.L.O.W.N.S

Lol. And we wonder why fans are showing up less and less to sporting events and viewership is down. Because of attitudes that fans are clowns and need to shut up and just enjoy anything and everything. Lol. They pay good money and spend a lot of their time to go to games. If they feel like chanting, they are aloud to. Doesn’t matter if you don’t agree. I don’t care if they chanted “Poop tastes great.” You don’t have to agree or chant but they can enjoy themselves.

 

[VolGee4]

You shouldn’t need multiple plays. You should be able to run any play and execute against a team of their caliber. Heupel’s first three games leave A LOT to be desired. Florida can name their score. Wouldn’t be surprised if we lose by 3-4 TDs

This is so much BS. Their offensive plan last week was a wining game plan. Some of you guys just love being negative. Get a rise out of it.

 

[volinbama256]

O line sucking today is very concerning for next week and this season...

That’s a recipe to lose a lot of money. I actually have never touched Tennessee games in any sport, either team Peyton played for in the NFL, the Celtics or the Angels because I’m a fan. Fanaticism clouds judgement.

It’s not even raining at my house in west Knox and it’s moving slow. I bet we get it all in.

College halftime is too long

 

[jordan4vols]

There hasn’t been an announcement of a weather delay. It’s a light sprinkle

I want to see what our fans can do, given the chance.

I have seen our fanbase come out of pocket year after year for dumber things than better players

I'm happy our offense has a pulse.
