Recruiting Football Talk VII

I honestly forgot clemson was in the tournament. I picked New Mexico and never even looked at who they were playing. My brain just doesn't care enough about Clemson to even read their name

I know Clemson is a fine team, but when I've matched them this year there was never anything interesting about the way they play, their players, their coach. Nothing.

They've had good players and teams in the past, but anytime they are good...nobody cares.

They have the most boring good teams lol

As someone who went to LV games for almost 20 years, there were only a few opposing coaches it was obvious Pat did not like. Mulkey was by far the coach she disliked the most.

My son was a grad student at UT when Pat passed away. He was an intern in event management and they put him in charge of escorting the various coaches to/from the memorial service to/from their transportation. He said by far the most pompous and aggorant one out of the bunch was Mulkey. He said Geno was actually the most cordial of them. Chatted with him quite a bit.

Really? Because, in more recent years, Mulkey has stated, numerous times, her respect and admiration for Pat, and what all she did to build the women's game.

But that was a Princeton style backdoor cut..that sounds like semantics to me.

I see what is being said, but maybe I would be more accurate to call it a motion offense with a LOT more off ball screens..

Well this is mostly describing plays that they run instead of naming the style that they run.

Pointing out how hard they are to guard because how complex their ball screens are. Princeton doesn't necessarily run elaborate sets like that.

UConn runs an offense that a good mid major runs to compete with top level teams, only they have as much talent as anyone.

That nay be true...but that doesn't mean Pat felt that way about her.

I watched it..I understand what it is better now...thanks.

^Isn't that what we do in football?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Auburn plays good defense, but they do not play TEAM defense near as well as we do.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Hell Yale!

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Auburn is going to lose this game...lol.

 

[Vol423]

This guy has a great way of explaining it.

Interesting video, but where the hell did that guy learn to pronounce the word “subsequent”? He pronounces it as sub-see-quent.

Yeah only our plays aren't that elaborate.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Broome SUCKS on defense

 

[UTProf]

Auburn keeps letting Yale come back. If they keep this up Yale will take them out.

When did McGill become a Pearl hugger?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Tie ball game...Barner offense went to sleep at half.

 

[SweetasSoda]

Same at my house, minus the fiance. My wife has picked her teams by "favorite color", "which mascot would win in a fight", "I don't like the sound of their school name", and "ohhh, I want to go there on vacation". She's won the whole thing 3 times like that. It drives me and my sons crazy.

That’s what I would do, and of course Tennessee would win for all those reasons.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

WTH are you taking about?

 

[UTProf]

Yeah only our plays aren't that elaborate.

True. And to me that's smart offense. If you can do things that are designed to even the playing field a bit and do that with players that are as talented as anyone else's you have a winning formula.

 

[Weezer]

WTH are you taking about?

WTH do you mean WTH am I talking about? Isn't it obvious??

 

[UTProf]

Missed an open dunk... bro,.....

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

These refs suck...I hope we don't get a crew like this because they will cause us problems...they will not let Auburn play defense and that is a massive advantage for Yale.

 

[UTSuave’]

While I completely disagree that refs should change calls based on the time left in the game, I 100% support your challenge idea. That was a tough call in real time, so challenged reviews would certainly help.

That’s what I’m saying as humans we are not perfect so we miss…a challenge gives you the chance to correct the mistake..it covers both sides

The NCAA still hates Bruce Pearl

Auburn was getting away with murder at the beginning. Things changed with the elbow to the face.
