Recruiting Football Talk VII

[knoxvol52]

Some want to grab a QB in the port hole...
Anyone think a QB transfer just to be a backup ?
Max Johnson going to UNC because he knows he will start since Drake Maye will be gone...

 

[CAVPUT]

If healthy….. WANT

Oh my. The other WR names, I know next to nothing about, but this cat....yeah. Bring him on.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Nah, man. He good.

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

it's called earning respect.

i think his recruiting has taken a step back, and i think this team is overrated.

but, 21 more wins and puts him at 800. he will finish his career in top ten all time, likely.

so, lets argue about fahrrin' barnes. or just shut up and let it work itself out. jmo iyam imho.

Some seem to forget the Wade Houston , Buzz Petersen eras at Tennessee...
Let's throw Donnie Tyndall in there as well...

Stewart
Wells
Collins.

Thats not in any order but that should be the 3 names we look at.

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.

Pope just followed Collins on IG

Might be the most insane statistic under the Heupel era?

Unreal how good Wright was this year. He hits a 4.3 at the combine(very likely) he will be off the board by end of round 2. Unless teams make the same mistake as they did not drafting the kid from A&M last year that ended up with the Dolphins. Similar back, except Wright is much bigger.

I'm sure we are going to at least contact these guys, just who knows if we get them.

You still want these G5 guys over Collins and Wells?

 

[TrippieRedd]

I wonder if we take two portal receivers?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I wonder if we take two portal receivers?

I would if they are good enough.

Thank you, Mr. Wet Blanket.

I'm taking Res Wucker's opinion over old @RikidyBones everyday and three times on Sundays.

1. Maclin (his route running is art)
2. Wells, close to 1
3. Stewart
4. Collins
5. Kris

That’s how’d I list them. I overhyped Kris. I’m just in awe of Maclin

Yep. Not sure what our fans are thinking when they call for a QB transfer. I wanted one after Hooker left, but after Milton had his bowl game, there was no chance we'd be attractive to a portal QB. We're in the same boat again this year, but that's not a bad thing. We'll most certainly roll next year with Nico, Merklinger and Moore/Shuler. My biggest worry outside of injury are the fan expectations. Nico might turn out to be the next superstar, but I watched Peyton Manning struggle as a freshman. Not saying Nico can't explode onto the scene, but this ain't a bama or uga roster they've surrounded him with. Still a couple of classes yet to go before we are in the discussion. Get him some tools in the portal, pray for good health and good evals. Then get 7-8 wins and a bowl and I'm pretty darned happy. That would be a GREAT season for Nico in year 1 IMO. Folks calling for 10/11 wins are living in a fantasy world. Not happening.

3 time Super Bowl winning Quarterback ....only 3 Quarterbacks have more....
Brady. Montana ,Bradshaw...

It was the RB. . . plus they cheated the whole time.

 

[CAVPUT]

Without access to an X-ray, it means nothing. I walked on my broken ankle, went up and down stairs, drove myself to the ER, etc.

I hope it's not a break but the sprain is the worst part of the injury anyways.

Very true. I suffered a "sprain" when I played. Images showed ligaments that had separated from the bone. Each had a bone fragment attached. Surgery was the only option if I was to continue playing. I'm just hoping it's not one of those dreaded "high" ankle sprains. Never had that, but everyone says it's something that just hangs and haunts all season long. That would be a real blow considering how Knecht plays the game and how UT needs him to play. He's the one guy we couldn't afford to lose. Not so funny how that seems to happen to UT players every year....in every sport.

Pshhh....okay
Emmitt, Troy and Micheal are the greatest trio ever offensively on any NFL ever....

 

[InVOLuntary]

This is the Power T, no? That dude looks familiar.

 

[InVOLuntary]

1.290 yards doesn't seem very impressive to me.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

The ACC is soft. I don't care what their record is, without Travis FSU isn't one of the 4 best teams in the country, with him they barely qualify.

But no, we shouldn't have. A second loss to UGA in Atlanta should've ended everything. Besides my dislike of the playoffs, the first loss to UGA should've ended the conversation as well.

Wow no words. And saying the ACC is down is very opinionated. That’s your opinion. They have actually doen well against SEC this year. What does that say about our conference?

It's been duly noted the SEC is very down this year.

Hyatt had 1769 in his last season.
It's an average right at 100 yards per game.

Then why are you advocating for Bama and UGA to get in if UGA loses and the SeC is down? Plus UGA had the easiest SEC schedule this year and no good OCC games
