Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[drvenner]

I just got a pair of Brooks Hyperion Tempo. Not as cushy but super light Im really digging them about 15 miles into them.

I thought you said you went Comman....

Never mind

 

[drvenner]

You don't follow Vol Football? WTH, Dude?

Here Jarrett, you take the keys and drive...View attachment 479075

Drive it like you stole it. Nothing to lose.

So our defensive backfield is struggling against our well-oiled touchdown-making machine. Eh.

 

[drvenner]

Well who else ya starting? Need 2 CBs and Hadden has missed a lot of camp, most the rest of the secondary outside Safety have limited experience.

Some people just identify problems. They ain't got time for no solutions.

solid 5, only because she's a VFL.

VFL is really her only redeeming quality. Would be a 4 or possibly a 3 otherwise.

 

[engineerVOL]

Oh. My. Gosh.

1. JG is on an NFL team?
2. “Tired arm”… um wut.

 

[Riverratvolfan]

So close to hitting the lottery. I got 4 numbers + the Powerball. . . just one more number. . . sheesh. . . oh well, maybe next time. . .

Doesn’t that still win money?
I worked with a guy that won 200k off a powerball but didn’t hit all the numbers. I’m not familiar with the rules so just thought I’d ask.

Edit if I’d have just read further I could have not replied.

INT's incoming....


Just kidding. I really wish him the best. He had to deal with multiple coaching changes and never got the development that he should have. Somebody in the NFL sees something or he wouldn't be on a roster. Hope he does well wherever he ends up.

They like his measurables and he is athletic...that's mainly it.

Brandon: the NFL scouts see 6'3, 6'2, whatever he is. They see good arm. They see all these things and they go "Boom, draft guy!" But turn on the film. It ain't there.

JJ Peterson gets that award

 

[Glitch]

eh, the covids got me all wonky

How did you live to tell the tale? You sir, are one lucky fella. The close to a sin tube and still breathing? Nothing short of a miracle.

Basically this. Being totally objective, I saw him make some impressive plays last year. He kept Kentucky in the game against us last year through sheer will. He just doesn't have the supporting cast apart from the backfield. Kinda like Daniel Jones, different type of QB but similar situation. Has the tools, and scouts think that his results are in spite of his situation.

Levis last year had marginally better stats and higher rating than Daniel Jones did in any 1 season at Duke. Against stiffer competition.

I think this was on the menu at Baumhowers in Tuscaloosa.

So by the (still early) sound of it our DBs are going to be the weakness of the team.
-Pitt doesn’t have their QB and WR1 from last year.
-Florida QB is a huge question mark
-LSU QB is a question mark
-UK and Levis is slightly over rated
-Vandy is Vandy
-Scar has Rattler but again a question mark
-Missouri QB should be meh

Georgia and Bama are losses either way

@uggos? No thanks.

 

[SoilVol]

Something I just realized, Hendon Hooker's worst single season QBR was a 153.5 in 2020 at VT. The season he lost the job (after injury and Covid derailed his health).
2019: 165.8
2021: 181.4

That's impressive, and I think that's a testament that his success and stats aren't just because of the system.

Being in VA at the time during the Pruitt JG years, surrounded by VT fans I specifically remember saying "dang I wish we had a QB like Hooker"

I also said that about literally everyone, but I was specifically jealous about that
