Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

Loving these highlight Tweets. Good times.

They should have drafted another lineman. They couldn't protect against anyone.

So, they thought, Levis was used to taking sacks and he brings solid meme-worthy looks crying when he loses. And if the fans walk away, there will still be a boatload of loser fans of loser football streaming south across the Kentucky border to strut around Nashburg. It's like feeding pigeons.

I'm starting to understand why the Titans did what they did.

Bought time we got back to our WRU roots.

WRU on the come back and come up!!

NFL Draft 2023: Will Levis never had a 99.9% chance of going in the 1st round, and ESPN’s model gives advanced stats a bad rap

One thing the writer got wrong is that it doesn't use past data inputs or backtesting.



Once he didn't get picked in the top 5 or 10 the model shifted completely. It only took 1 or 2 teams not taking him to change a lot it seems.

I do find it interesting how much people dismiss long odds though. I always wonder how many folks thought we'd win 4 games in 2017. Less than 1%? .1%? Prolly. Or TCU making the playoffs? Or us being ranked #1 at any point? Crazy things happen more than many think. Some stock folks make tons on options exploiting this human statistical bias.

Not saying the model is good or bad. Idk enough about it to be fair. It's pretty new, so not sure who does. It also got a lot right, the other side that has to be balanced. It's all interesting though.

Personally I like the narrative he just dropped a lot in historic fashion so I'd rather not kill it

Don’t give Deadspin a click but this kind of stuff is ridiculous.

I just LOVE seeing our highlights full of Bammaw taking the "L" at our hands.

I’d guarantee that NFL teams employ data scientists and have ML algos to use as another input into their process, but I agree, the real change becomes when you can have AI give another interpretation of the eye test. Essentially a virtual scout that gives input to the real scouts and helps them analyze players and how they fit into their schemes.

"Player A has shown too much human emotion. Weakness. Do not take"

"Player B moves like robot. Good player"

Alex thinks the Steelers will target Jerome Carvin today.

Some of the points were not wrong (past disparagement of black QBs in the NFL and bias).

But the headline is downright clickbait. I get the writer is flipping the past on its head with the headline, but will fly past too many heads to be insightful...it's just going to end up inflammatory.

68 TDs and 5 picks should be illegal

Dear lord!!

It’s just a racist, and sexist outlet now…. Absolute trash!

I bet we put another 30 TDs with 2-5 ints this year.

I think we really need to take a moment and contemplate how remarkable this is.

Best recruiting tool in years.

This is so good! GBO

 

[dwaugh]

I think the Titans are in rebuild mode, but for their fanbase. They should probably draft Toot next, just to make sure they finish cleaning house. I debated on using blue font.

 

[jakez4ut]

This guy played for Tennessee and Alabama and never won that game in Knoxville.

 

[JCVol00]

Come to the Miami dolphins. You'll still get to experience disappointment but more latinas

I have a friend who is a die hard Dolphins fan lmao, i dont mind them since they’re constantly a thorn in the patriots side

 

[UTProf]

I've been peeping Detroit's twitter and them guys and gals are happy with Hendon. I know Detroit has been sketchy in years past with careers but I'm glad Hendon is going somewhere they will show him love.

 

[UTProf]

Now that’s a team I’d pay to go see and have on multiple occasions.

Never make a mean girl mad. I can go places you menfolk can't and damn am I mad. They're the Nashville Oilers and Nashville Tits from now on to me.

 

[Glitch]

I think the new lady that owns the Titans wants to move the franchise, so she is purposefully tanking this draft. That is the only reasonable explanation for drafting Levi's and a RB with no knees.

 

[VolunteerVandiver]

Why are they not ecstatic about CT? The injury?

I was just reading team's Reddit pages, but I am attributing it to the general pessimism with the Browns fanbase. They also had no picks in the 1st 2 rounds iirc. Funny enough, those that watched his highlight reel couldn't stop complimenting Hooker's throws to Tillman

I thought about that too. That's the only way the titans picks make any sense. Was she the one in the Oiler's hat last night?




* kind of like Major League
