Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

We got lucky

Luck? That’s taking away from the phenomenal job the coaches did with what you and most others said was impossible.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He sounds like he should fit right in the Jorts legion..lol. I hope he is Zook redux.

 

[Orangeburst]

Doesn't matter what the bowls want now...Snakey pretty much picks where he wants the teams to go.

FYP

 

[UTMVol76]

He literally didn’t even call plays at LSU.

So the only job he’s ever had where he called plays, he was fired after 2 years.

Apples and oranges. Pro game and college game are not the same. He will be a hot commodity for a college job.

Then I repeat - he has no track record. Never called plays in college.

Joe Brady was not a fan of the college game. Hated recruiting from what i recall.

What he said…

We’ll see. I’d bet a cold drink on this one lol

I’m not saying there aren’t HC who wouldn’t hire him. But 1) he’s an NFL guy and I believe that’s where he wants to be, and 2) he has never called plays in college and it’s far from certain he would be successful

Cheering for Cincinnati actually makes sense. Half bear, half cat. They should put that in a song or something....

Does anybody know if there is a team called the Minkpops?

 

[Batman1948]

As much as I hate Bama, I just have this hatred for GA and their Fans. Been to a few UT vs GA games and they are so obnoxious.

I told my wife I hate them both but I also loathe Georgia---she thinks I'm losing it . I also told her I hate every team Tennessee plays

 

[Devo182]

Not Minnesota?

Minnesota has 2. But Purdue has 4.

Penn St also has 2



Minnesota appears just a bit better (PPG margin, YPP margin, won heads-up), so I guess I'd take Purdue considering neither is going to bring name power. Though Purdue is dangerous and can play "up" to their opponent better.

Not scared either way...B1G teams coming to Florida against us is where B1G teams go to die.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If Michigan don’t wax dat ass first.

Harbaugh is even more generic than Kirby.

 

[Devo182]

Go steal Napier's recruits

 

[volsagain]

We got lucky

With our AD hire !! The guy knows what he is doing

 

[KPT_VFL]

Matt Rhule should go to Oregon.

 

[Nashvegas31]

Kind of sucks to play Minnesota or Purdue. More to lose than if we played a notable blue blood to get some attention beating them.

 

[VolNash17]

Go steal Napier's recruits

He certainly isn’t a great in game coach or developer but one thing he can do is land elite talent. He’ll keep alot of them away from Florida and Bama

 

[Devo182]

Bama is gonna destroy cincy.

If UGA beats Michigan, then yes...we need em sadly.

But if UGA loses, then I'm back to "hell with Bama"

probably posted but love kicking puppydogs !

 

[KPT_VFL]

I want Miami to be good again and a pain for Florida. We don’t play them and they steal recruits from UF. Seems like a win win.

True. But we'll drag them...so that'll be fun. They rarely see SEC speed and we're gonna burn em all day.

Live look in on Manny Diaz

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Do you really think so? I’m just not sure this sport is set up to ever have parity.

Outside of two teams this year it really already has started creeping back in...but you may be right, true parity may be a dream as long as a ton of the top 100-250 elite HS kids keep taking bigger stacks to go ride the pine at Bama or UGA.

If Bama didn't have Young this year, they would 9-3.

I think if kids see that there is a legitimate avenue to a title at more than 4-5 places..that will help big time.
