Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

I’d be surprised if Hooker got drafted at all so wow that’s surprising. He doesn’t really read the field, but he does make the perfect throw. And Heupel turning the backup into an NFL QB is something I’m here for.

 

[Volsdeep4]

Oh no! These players are going to die from heat exhaustion! Didn’t they learn the first time??!?

 

[nicksjuzunk]

They like Heup more than Pruitt? Who are we talking about?

Just about anybody

Hooker is good in this offense, but honestly, he's a third day pick at best IMO. He needs another year.

I agree he probably goes in later round. He is loosing some good receivers and may not help himself with coming back. I hope he does come back, but don’t blame him if he doesn’t.

Every year there are players who get bad advice and leave early. They're told and they believe that they'll be drafted fairly high, only to drop like crazy. I would hate to see that happen to Hooker.

Heupel's offense sets up to replace WRs fairly easily.

There was an article on The Athletic about the Senior Bowl with interviews with the scouts that pick the squads. They specifically mentioned Hooker and how shocked they were at his improvement. The hype may be real for him.

 

[BigSteve09]

Yeah, I appreciate it, but I've not spent a single dollar out of my wallet and dont plan to.

Have you seen Uncut Gems?

Thats because he kinda sucked previously.

I don't doubt you. Almost all of the "popular" headphones are mere scams. Like buying $200 Jordans when $40 blahblahs are just as well made.

They've done actual studies on those "Beats" jokes...people thought they costed $15 by the sound. Absolute garbage. What's wild is there are SO many good headphones out these days. The tech is highly reproducible...the rest is marketing.

I’ve used Taotronics for years before Amazon booted them. Currently using the Tranya brand and they are very good

 

[Weezer]

I'm curious, does anyone really foresee Hooker being a future NFL star QB? I'm not hating on the guy because I love what he's doing for us, but realistically, I don't see that future for him. I think he'll be more of a career back up. But hey, hopefully he proves me wrong.

You're a true friend for getting your friend in position to purchase collegiate apparel that isn't trash.

Well, there go Tennessee’s chances…

We are doomed. One day he will get here for an upset.

Your buddy is a funny guy for buying you a women's jacket.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Uhhhh, we'ens was doomed waaaay before Pay'un showed up. Morans.

 

[SmokinBob]

Haha. Well, I won't be putting any of my actual $ on it. It's free so far. I'd like to find a couple decent bets to put it all on and if it wins anything before December, donating the $ to some charity in town.

why'd they put black marker over the orange? Weird.

Offense is more nuanced than many (including Dillon Gabriel) give credit. Personally I think scouts and GMs lend weight to a steady track record…namely a beginning to end starting effort displaying strengths. That he’s never had. Only takes one one team to fall in love but it took 6 rounds for ONE team to submit a pick for Trey who had two straight seasons of solid performance.

Had a similar bad trek with white jerseys orange britches. Something eventually gives in bad juju. When this one dissipates, I’ll attend a game.

Reading comprehension a weakness for you? Third grade--fourth grade?

 

[BleedorangeinGA]

I really want Tennessee to play Clemson in a bowl game. Circa 2003 season, Tennessee was expecting a huge season. Beat Florida and Alabama and lost to Georgia and Auburn. Disappointed with being in the Peach Bowl Clemson beat a very uninspired team. Soon after the descent of Tennessee and rise of Clemson came to life.
It’s time for Tennessee to swing the pendulum back to our rightful position. Take back the Carolina area in recruiting as well.

I got a set of the Tranya’s about a year and a half ago and they’ve been great. About $35 on Amazon. I’ve never understood the Apple hard ear pods that won’t stop falling out of my ears.
