Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Glitch]

Sure this happens way more than advertised. Very few restaurants ive worked in have NOT had cockroaches.

Biggest rat ive ever seen was behind a Crapplebees, sorry 88.

There is an interesting question I was kind of mulling over recently, that I'd be curious what your thoughts are:

With perhaps Tennessee Basketball's best team bounced from March Madness early (yet again), what do you have more faith happens first?

- Tennessee Football Makes the College Football Playoff National Championship Game
- Tennessee Basketball Makes the Final Four
- Tennessee Baseball Makes the College World Series - Championship Series (i.e. Final 2 out of 3 between last 2 teams)

Emotions are high on football after the Nico commitment, and low on basketball after another early exit. I have a feeling of what I think people's general thoughts will be, but I was curious if it matches reality. I know where I stand, but I'll hold off on that for a minute.

The other two options, a deep March Madness run and making the CFP Championship Game legit come down to one game. Baseball you get the "best of" series to help off-set some one game woes. Those same woes in the other two send you home.

That’s recent. I’m referencing what happened in 2012. I don’t think Dave Ross publicized it. Obviously they got it corrected if it was going strong before Covid.

I was there more than a few times between 2013-2015. Always good.

No quarrel with the food or management. All 1st class. The fact that he’ll shut it down for long periods of time to address problems is far from a criticism.

Baseball is easily the closest IMO. Football is on a nice path, but still 2 to 3 years away at best. March Madness is such a crapshoot, and while we have a puncher's chance any given year Barnes just doesn't have tourney success. Baseball already made the first step with ease and we appear even better this year. TV gonna reload that team and always be a legit threat every year.

This is my thought as well. I need to see a better defense for me to believe football can make that leap. Vitello has baseball ROLLING and his best recruiting classes aren’t even on campus yet (2023/2024 are STACKED). I’m fairly confident Vitello is going to win a national title at some point in the next 5-10 years. Can’t say I’m anywhere near as confident about the other two….yet.

So the silver lining of Rucker, Burrell, Hadden, and Turnage all being out for Spring Practice is that you basically force the other young guys Dee Williams, Christian Charles, Tamarion McDonald, and Doneiko Slaughter to get more reps against the 1s on offense.

So, text that number, get Andy's number from them, purchase multiple burners, and let the hilarity ensue. Got it.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Lol Andy was on Swains show this morning talking about he's going to take UT to court for banning him from campus.

 

[Ten_Titans]

He's so sad. We're eating Prime Rib and he's asking how much for the grilled cheese.

Sounds like every person on this board after 2021 ESD lol

I think baseball is the easy option here because you get 2 chances to lose. I could see this year's team making it. But I don't like easy, so Barnes gets his **** together and makes a FF.

It's hard to believe they're all hurt but let's hope they're not out for grade issues

 

[Chuckie]

Dude is going to be a problem.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Lost my over 61,000 alerts. They just vanished this morning.

The king is dead.

Ill see y'all on the other side about to fly my cheagle into the sun.

Weird. I’ve all the sudden got 61,459 alerts that showed up this morning and a golden cheagle showed up on my doorstep.

Man what a great week, outside of Vols bball losing. Vols get Nico and my Dolphins get top OT Terron Armstead and Tyreek Hill!

Let’s goooooo!

Now let’s just hope McDaniel can get the best out of Tua. He doesn’t need to be Mahomes, he just needs to be better than he has been.

Jaylen Waddle x Tyreek Hill
Speed on top of Speed

I didn’t know there was a dolphins fan on this board

 

[volbeast33]

30,000,000 dollars a year for a receiver….. are the dolphins insane?

Problem for opponents defense.

I'll have to add a hill jersey to my collection of Ricky Williams, Pac Man Jones and Michael Vick.

He got banned from campus? That is hilarious.

Devante Adams makes about 28M/year
Deandre Hopkins makes about 27.2M/year

It’s the going rate for a top 3 WR. I doubt it works out to be exactly 30M/year, every year, but it’ll be the top WR contract slightly above Adams.
