Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

[SSVol]

I’ve never seen so many people excited to see 12 o clock before in my life and I’m still trying to piece together what difference it makes

Crowd is sober and generally more subdued.

 

[Glitch]

This is what I was talking about with Bob the other day. This call is horrific. No excitement what so ever.

Hendon Hooker vs Top 25 teams so far this season:

49/70 (70% completion), 740 yards, 4 TD, 0 INT

I don't think he has played his best game yet.

Tell me I am wrong.

Night games @ Death Valley are notoriously hard. . .
UT early games are notoriously good. . . well, maybe not notorious. . . but we've been known to have really good 1st quarters in early games. . .

I love 11 am games. I know I'm in the minority but sitting around anxious all day aint it for me lol

True. I do love that part.

Plus more time to party all evening and night.

For away games... Love it.

NCAA has your Tennessee Volunteers as the No. 1 overall college football offense in the country/world/universe.

Have you ever seen a night death Valley game?

Idk about the last part, only because it’s hard to be much better than he was Saturday.

I will say a win at Death Valley at night would have probably launched Hooker to top 1 or 2 for the Heisman.

Some don't even show up (students especially) or leave early.

All around great for us. Now we need to flood the stadium.

I'm going to be here all day crushing hot takes from nega vols!

no doubt

just win, stay healthy

I hope we come out and steamroll them SCar or Mizzou style. Take the crowd and opponent out of it by the 2nd quarter.

Espn also had to juggle mlb wild card games on the lsu weekend. That's what helped us get the 11 am kick

Not true. CBS had first and third pick of games and ESPN got second pick. Their pick had to go at noon, as to not go head to head with the CBS double header games. That’s why we are at noon.

It's amazing how other fanbases are downplaying this. There's gonna be some serious gnashing of teeth when they realize Heupel is the real deal and we aren't going away. They still think we've padded our stats via cupcakes and this offense is "gimmicky."

 

[KPT_VFL]

Bob Kesling needs to hang it up. That call is the least enthusiastic thing you’ll ever hear.

I think LSU is way too good for that to happen but it would be nice indeed.

 

[GoBigOrange86]

double post. Go Vols.

SIAP

Best part of that short is when Kentucky turns to Arkansas and says "We'll mourn you til we join you."

 

[Enki_Amenra]

This is what I was talking about with Bob the other day. This call is horrific. No excitement what so ever.

He's got to go.
He's had his time and was allowed to make a career out of being "OK" at something.
It's past time to get a new voice for the new Vols.

Lol yeah Kentucky is out this week.

Wow! That is really bad. I think its time for Bob to move on. He actually used to get excited right after he took over for John Ward.

Saw this and thought of the NCAA Football series for some reason. Thought they dropped team ratings / rosters.

Also got me thinking, a ton of recruits grew up playing those games and I remember EVERYBODY playing with Oregon due to their offense in the game. They were just fun.

Once the series gets rolling again, we’re gonna be that team, and that can only help recruiting right?

 

[BigSteve09]

I wonder if this Deion to GT thing really does have legs. I see a lot of CFB media people that I trust talking about it like it's a serious discussion.
