Recruiting Football Talk VII

[PlanetVolunteer]

Only one time since 2009 has every 1 and 2 seed made the Sweet Sixteen.

We're down to Purdue, Houston, and UConn.

C'mon March Madness. Bring the heat!

I'm so annoyed

I was laughing at people saying it was going to be chalk....

Still time...but not looking good.

I love the guy...I just completely disagree with him about this.

He keeps bringing up Hurley...but Hurley is the only one doing what he is doing as far as I can tell.

Go Lady Blue Raiders! Is that allowed? making LSU look like they are all eyelashes

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Only one time since 2009 has every 1 and 2 seed made the Sweet Sixteen.

We're down to three 1-seeds - Purdue, Houston, and UConn.

C'mon March Madness. Bring the heat!

I don't think any of them lose unless something miraculous happens

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

No...you can say dumb all you want. We both say our offense has problems...you blame it on Rick Barnes "offensive style"...I blame it on never having more than one great shooter and blame it on Ricks "Defensive style".

Hurley's system is probably the most efficient in the country and he has more shooters than we do.

He doesn't have two headcases like JJJ and Vescovi. Their guys are just more consistent and our guys get just as open, but miss everything sometimes.

This Purdue game is over. Don't care been waiting on JMU vs Duke All day.
That's the game I win some money off my neighbor.

“Lance” may be an uncommon name these days…








But in Medieval times, people were named Lance a lot.

The J.P. stands for John Peter, so apparently he doesn’t have Hispanic heritage.

A&M I think has a chance. They can really play at a high level.

Northwestern is really over matched athletically.

 

[KptVFL]

Played with him a couple times and went to his house for dinner one night (years ago)
Really good guy. Not fake...very genuine. Actually saw him give the "shirt off his back" to a young kid.

Very cool!

Exactly what I expected you to say.

Just seems like a guys guy. No pretension.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Well, I have now lived in Texas for 24 years and I have no doubt about my VFL status. My blood has been Pantone 151 for 61.5 years

Congrats to former LV Kara Kawson. Her 7th seeded Duke upset 2nd seeded Ohio State by 12 points in Columbus. Sweet Sixteen for Duke

She's not Pretty Holly and she's not Pretty Kellie. Who is she?

 

[KptVFL]

Oh shite! He got a foul!

I commented on this once before. Absolutely flabbergasted that the announcer first said, "that's just good basketball." Dude was trying to injure the TTU player. Was not even trying for the ball. If he's back next year, I hope our officials (LOL, I know, I know) don't put up with that crap.

2 run single! 11-3 Vols. We are so close to opening up that proverbial can on old piss.

I believe Billy Barrels heard you.

 

[crawdaddyjc]

i hope someone knocks the dog snot out of purdue. cant stand them.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Teams don’t need fouls on Edey to beat Purdue. In their 4 losses this season he’s not really been in foul trouble. Had 4 vs NW but still scored 35 and played 38 mins.

You just can’t let the other guys beat you.

It's not just Edey's fouls. It's the fouls called on the other team's players going against him. He draws some ridiculous stuff, while they turn their head as he brutalizes defenders.

 

[vol9799]

Not a big deal…. He should have congratulated the women’s team for their win in the tournament…. Most of the comments are fired up about our huge win over Texas.

Agree, it's not a big deal and that's what makes the "what about us?" whining and grandstanding even more distasteful.

Always been a LV fan, but have never had any use for LV only fans who act like they've been mistreated or under-served.

DW has shown that program infinite patience and respect when it has earned NONE during his tenure. Quit riding Coach Summitt's coattails and go accomplish something if you want to be special.

 

[drvenner]

I hope Barnes wins...just to shut @volbeast33 the hell up.

Non only him. There are plenty of others who ride that train.

This is a prime example of what is wrong on this message board…. Can’t have actual basketball conversation… Everything has to be 100% amazing or we are firing everyone… I am 100% a Rick Barnes fan…. One more win and i will be extremely ecstatic…… a final four/NC and build the statue.

You have a lot of opposite opinions, and that's fine. I liked it because I really want you and others who espouse the same thing to be wrong, because it means we are winning. I know you cheer for our team, and you have your opinion, but you honestly can't expect not to get some flack about it, can you? McGill can be, um, a little, um, intense, I guess is the right word and most of us know we aren't changing his mind, just like we know we are probably not changing your mind, either.
