Recruiting Football Talk VII

[drvenner]

But how will you know if they laugh at your funny posts daily?

That's on them, brah. I gave them every possible chance.

 

[orange parmejohn]

Barnes?

Yes. If anybody questions him on Twitter they get swarmed and shamed.

 

[Jackcrevol]

I like the tough schedule, what doesn't kill you..will make you stronger....

Thought the Invitational was a good deal. What this team needs is more time in the saddle, possibly playing a mid tier.

Moving on, the George Mason game is just what they need. Take the time to refine, and practice being a team. Too many errors on offense.

 

[Revived2002]

But its not.

Not sure I follow?

Texas is coming into our league, having a better tradition than Tennessee, including three Final Four appearances.

Do you follow college sports much?

[drvenner]

Not sure what you did, @TN-POSSUM, but must have been pretty bad for @drvenner to give up on you.

You should be ashamed.

Nah, man. He good.

I'm still trying to understand why y'all care about how much money Coach Banks is making. Did he take money out of your pocket or food off your table?

I’ll play…

Not that I’m saying fire banks. But I think we can do better.

When you are invited to events and asked for money, it is frustrating to give and continue to be asked for money when results aren’t what is led to believe.

Plus season tickets keep going up and the real games we all care about, we were blown out in. So yes, paying top dollars and giving to UT does make you upset when you see coaches not performing and you are continually asked for money.

 

[drvenner]

Have you ever seen a spider with 10 eyes? I have and it was really not pleasant. In fact, that spiiiiiiiiiider scared the crap out of me.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Nah, man. He good.

Good news, @TN-POSSUM! I was able to smooth things over between you and Byron.

Comment wasn't about tougher, it was about Barnes leaving and us going back to Tyndall ball.

Him leaving doesn't even come close to guaranteeing that. We have an Admin that cares about ALL TN sports being competitive, an AD that has a good track record of finding basketball coaches. TN might go back to the Green and Tyndall days one day, but it's not because Barnes leaves, it's because Danny White and Randy Body are no longer around.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Backup plan for Seaton if Oregon? Eagerly anticipating the “can’t close!” threads.

Nope. Take both. We need tackles.

 

[drvenner]

Will Kellie Harper be on the hot seat?

She should have been at the start of the season. Schedule has been pretty tough, but 4-3 is not great. She has not built up nearly the equity that Rick has.

 

[Jimmy Football]

Yes. If anybody questions him on Twitter they get swarmed and shamed.

Oh, I assumed you were talking about here.

 

[gainesvol82]

thought he was married?

Bwahahaha, I would have pegged Bruce as more of a bearded clam kinda guy but maybe they have a 70's/80's style bath house near Toomer's Corner?

Who are we rooting for in the SEC ship?

I despise Bama more than UGA, but the thought of them winning a third in a row may be worse than Bama winning this game.

Plus, I don’t think Bama can beat Oregon in the playoffs. Maybe not even Michigan.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

It’s showing the amount of penalties called against the opponents of those teams. As it turns out, the top teams have had their opponents be called for far more penalties.

Can anyone show how few penalties are called on those same teams? I think that would complete the tale…

Bama for sure.

I just interested who will be crying more Sunday ...Kirby or Saban ...

I’m a fan of bad Amazon reviews. Not the fake ones from China, but genuinely clueless people who have no idea what consists of an actual review. Stuff like:

“I haven’t tried the product or even opened the box but shipping was fast! 5 stars.”

“I got it as a gift for Meemaw I think she’ll love it. 1 star.”

Then I saw this one. I don’t know what’s going here but theft may be involved.

I pull for Navy ...because the greatest QB went to school there...

You are dead to me.

Best case scenario I think is Bama.

A month ago I thought that would mean 2 SEC teams in the playoffs, now I'm not so sure. I'm not even sure UGA is safe with a loss anymore.

 

[Orangeburst]

Nah, man. He good.

 

[Memphisvol87]

I think most fans instinctively know it’s back to the Donny Tyndall / Counzo Martin spin cycle as soon as the Barnes era ends, particularly now that the SEC is about to get a lot tougher.

I would much prefer Barnes over that past nonsense. It’s like Huepel in football. But there are deficiencies that continually don’t get addressed. Would be nice to have some new blood on staff come In and help fix issues. Get a guy that is being groomed to take over so to speak. But Barnes making the tourney every year, we hope, is something to consider. He needs someone to come overhaul the offense and someone who can coach and develop big men.

No chance if they lose. Schedule is too soft and others should have championship game victories.

Oregon/Washington
Bama/UGA
Michigan
FSU/Texas

If FSU or Texas were to lose (doubtful), then they may have the slightest shot between themselves and OSU.
