Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Volfansince1980]

Milton’s numbers disagree with you.

That's why it's important to watch games and not box scores

 

[BarrythesnoUT]

You should losen up, and not let it bother you!

Gotta be honest, this made me twitch a little.

 

[AllThingsTN]

As a former WR this is killing me. Slot and outside is not that big of a difference, I used to think slot was actually easier due to being off the LOS and not have to worry about being jammed in bump and run coverage. A good WR eats in the slot or outside, not like playing slot diminished one’s skills. Thornton need to step up, no excuses.

Slot is considered the “easier” position in typical offenses, which is why you see a lot of rookies playing there and then older guys who’ve lost a step in the NFL.

But the slot in Heupel’s system is different than traditional offenses.

I'm waiting for the, "What is it to be human?" from him.

Milton’s numbers disagree with you.

I watched a few replays of games from last year recently. It was very obvious in retrospect, that Huep was coaching around Milton. There were throws and situations that he knew Milton couldn’t handle. Examples: most third downs we ran the ball, he rarely allowed Milton to throw over the middle of the field, Miltons body language on most mesh (option read) runs looked like he was being told to hand off and not read the end of line defender.

Milton has a very low football iq. There were times where he drew a defensive player off side creating a free play, and either ran out of bounds short of the line to gain, or threw the ball away. That should never happen.

 

[Sudden Impact]

milton was a good qb, not great. his biggest problem was following HH. Milton tried to rely on his arm too much. Instead of using the whole playbook, or allowing play to develop and knowing where to go he tried to force the play. Too often a play would brrak down, then he's react. HH knew when to run, ans when not to run.

When wed run with Milton, it would work. But then we'd stall out. his throws were hard to catch, and either late or behind.

all the talent in the world. a gamer. but not the leader HH was. You can tell HH put in the work, but may have had more talent at WR. we weren't good there last year

Agree. Milton had the Talent, but could not process fast enough. This is the major difference between HH and Milton. HH saw the play before it happened and knew his options. Milton's let the play develop and then let loose. Processing Speed.

'Not one single man.'

Did they hurt your feelings? Maybe they're having difficulty finding people to cover the 9,000 hours of content? Maybe, the women are credentialed and good at their jobs?

Maybe, wgaff?

You are a massive simp

And blind as a stupid bat

Hendon also grew up the Son of a QB coach. Had been been coached that way. Whatever the reason, you're right.

I just dont want us to devalue or under appreciate Milton. Had Hendon not been here we would be lauding Milton's season.

Hope he balls out.

I just dont care. It doesnt impact me, at all.

My ego isnt impacted, in fact i'm happy three women have jobs they enjoy.

As a father of two little girls, frankly i'm happy to know that World is opening up to possibility that women dont just have one career option, spitting out babies, and cleaning.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ or for you

 

[LaagerVol]

I wish he would post again but a few azzholes ran him off just like LA Vol. Recruiting can change on a dime. happens

I like both those guys and don’t remember ever having anything negative to say to either of them, but that’s some pretty thin skin to let someone on a message board run you off. We all know there are nice people on here, funny people, sunshine pumpers, negVols, sarcastic people, jerks, trolls…. Why would anyone get so worked up over it that they take their ball and go home?

 

[jave36]

Question of the day:

Why do they call it a "pick-up" truck?

I thought that was obvious... You can pick up larger things and move them around with it.

 

[LaagerVol]

Atl was certainly a hell of a lot more interesting than the chuck wagons who constantly challenged his information without adding anything else to the conversation!

I agree with that too. Sad that some people don’t have anything better to do than harass other posters and argue if their info is legit or not.

ESPN is so woke it’s ridiculous, ran across this on bleacher report. Not one single man on this NFL live coverage.

Don't know the other two, but Mina Kimes is actually pretty knowledgeable on football. A lot of times producers feed the on air personalities football related info and questions and conclusions, but she actually studies the game and comes up with her own thoughts.

She's super annoying some times, but she knows her stuff.

To be quite fair, the world has been that way for quite some time lol

 

[eVOLve]

This would be amazing

Mizz the overhyped team this year instead of Kentucky? Nice change up

One of the ladies was Laura Rutledge, she is just a show host who brings up the subjects for the real knowledgeable ones to answer. You're correct about Kimes she knows her stuff ..

Ya I'm always confused when I see people acting like women are still subjugated to domestic work like the 50's. It's been decades, I can't remember ever seeing that mentality in corporate America in my 2 decades of corporate life.

I think attitudes are shifting, more and more.

Anyway, onto new topic.

Eh, I think UK was more because the East sucks.
Mizzou has a very favorable schedule with some talen returning. A lot like OM they'll have a pretty record that's a bit of a mirage of who they really are.

It was a bit of an over statement to prove a point.
