Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Memphisvol87]

Yea, better than we’ve been in 15 years.

That’s fine. We are. I’m glad we are. With last year comes expectations. And defense has to be expected to be better.

 

[VolGee4]

The roster isn’t the problem on defense. I’ll buy the offensive side is roster only because of last year. But defense is not a roster problem it’s a coaching problem. Mainly Willie Martinez who already got fired from here once for not being able to stop the pass.

We’ve recruited better in the secondary than we have in a while. Just need them to develop. Martinez is the one who’s recruited those guys. Pruitt left us with a bunch of 3 stars. I said it last year, and some didn’t care.

 

[thistime]

We hired a guy who turned a 13-0 program into a 6-4 program in three seasons because we were desperate and his former boss couldn't convince anyone else to come here. We caught lighting in a bottle with Hendon, a QB our own head coach chose not to start over Joe in 2022. Last year was more likely than not the high water mark of the CJH era and we're stuck with this guy for another five or six seasons because of his contract. Get ready to be good again in 2031ish...maybe.

Right before Florida plays FSU.... they lose their QB. Luckiest program in the country, unreal.

What happens if the refs don't throw a holding flag on Slaughter's interception? Do we score? The crowd was electric at that point. Could Wright have busted another long run?

That flag, like most calls against us this season, was a game changer.

I hope the SEC is satisfied with the "punishment" they've dished out this season. The team and the fans have been screwed over by our conference. I hope Sankey is proud of what he's built. Jerk

That hold was actually the right call when they showed the angle from behind. I hate to say it but we didn’t get screwed on that one.

Banks is a DB coach….. he could easily correct the problem

 

[Memphisvol87]

Martinez got fired when butch got fired but ok lol

Martinez gave up deep ball after deep ball and lost us 2 Florida games and almost Georgia if it wasn’t for dobbs. He was a major contributor to him being fired and guess what. He was fired… like I said. Defending him is moronic .

So are we losing on purpose then? Because he hasn’t fixed the pass d in 3 years

Freak, I love this place.

Let's be honest, he did start Joe over Hendon. CJH's career at tennessee might be very different if Joe doesn't get injured vs WV. Also, idk the reason he doesn't play more younger players in a secondary full of burnouts. 3 4star DBs on the bench I think? However, he took a job no one wanted and has proven to be a pretty good HC. His seat shouldn't be near hot, but hes not above criticism.

Clueless.

The problem I had was the ref threw the flag 5 seconds AFTER the pick and slaughter was running downfield

 

[Memphisvol87]

I’m having major deja vu vibes with all the defending banks and Martinez. This is like butch and dooley type ignorance is bliss.

I’m not defending him. Your post insinuated he was fired solo. The entire staff was fired. There’s quite a distinct difference between the 2

 

[scienceteaching_vol]

Just got home from the game. Doubt I rewatch it. What's the consensus this week? Ref's? Burn the program down? Talent deficit?

 

[Glitch]

Next year wont be better, lets face it. We are losing 4/5 starters on the OL, losing our TE’s, one, possibly 2 WR’s depending on Bru. Not to mention losing most members of the secondary, DL, and Beasley. It is not going to get better nexf year

Next season in cancelled everybody. We are forfeiting our games and will be joining a intramural flag football league instead.

 

[VolGee4]

That’s fine. We are. I’m glad we are. With last year comes expectations. And defense has to be expected to be better.

Statistically, they are. You have to score more than 10 points to win, and we know Heupel can figure that out.

You’re the one posting stupid sh*t and people are calling you out on it. Don’t be an idiot, and people don’t criticize your awful takes. It’s quite simple

 

[thistime]

There is only one way to fix it….. keep building the roster.

Consensus this week is......feast week, got some good games to watch this week!!!!!!!

And…comparing this staff with Dooley and Butch is asinine. 5-7, 5-7, 5-7…..

We're getting rid of all coaches and Nico.

That dude is gonna wake up hungover as hell tomorrow and come back and be like wtf did i post

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

Was it me or did the last 2 games feel like Dooley was our HC and Sunseri was DC?
