Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Can someone give me a TLDR of wtf happened in the Gabriel Osenda thread that made KingVFL decide to take a break from here? I don't really want to try and dive through all the comments in there...seems like a hazardous waste zone lol

Butchna happened. Same old condescending bs. Dude needs a volnation break.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Attacking? Your being dramatic. And it wasn't being overly generous. You are also misrepresenting with your two points.

I told him I appreciate his recruiting info. He claimed that Elarbee gets no credit for the recruitment, yet the recruit gave him lots of credit. I asked about that. He claimed to be just sharing facts with no opinion on that. Then he admitted that he was just passing on other peoples' "sentiments", i.e. opinions.

I in no way attacked him. I was actually respectful and gave him credit/thanks for his recruiting info. The exchange is still there. Anyone can go read it.

Do you know what's NOT still there? The attacks by the angry-people after the fact. If Butch or myself had attacked him, our posts wouldn't still be there to be read. The admins would have cleaned it up with the name calling that swooped in immediately after.

You were riding his coat tails. Stop it.

Legitimately, yeah, best to avoid confrontation if you can...however, you likely wouldn't catch an assault charge for that because you don't know what his intentions are. Far as you know, he's off his **** and crawling up to bite you. Perfectly legitimate self-defense situation.

FAFO tbh

Hey id back you up haha

Just shared a rack of baby back ribs with my German Shepherd. She would go to combat for me.

Umm, if she’s vomiting today, she has pancreatitis and you will want to take her to see a vet. If you are south of ATL, give me a call and I’ll see her.

I honestly like the idea of Army/Navy being played week 0. There’s hardly any games played that peeks the interest, plus it’s awkward having a “regular season” game played after conference championships

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

What's really baffling to me is when a regular student gets an accusation like this the university investigates immediately. Sometimes they won't let that student even go to class until it's resolved. They investigate very quickly and decide if you need expulsion or probation. Many criminal charges off-campus they'll investigate and usually put you on probation.

But a player or a coach, we see it all the time at schools like UF, *crickets*.

The Florida coaches are both internal reports as far as I can tell. No charges filed. Just internal complaints by students and employees of UF reporting to the university. So they can literally bring the parties together, review the facts of the situation and hand down a judgement within a week. Just like any HR at any business/corporation would do with employee conduct of this nature.

Can’t do anything to screw up the potential success of a team’s season! Sickening the society we live in and how it protects sports the way it does.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

So after Mizzou pays their light bill, they'll only have $4.9M to disperse amongst their athletes, and they have more sports than we do.

And they have to pay a million of that to Damien Wilson from GA.

We better not waste it on women’s basketball

Individuals want this to be an everything University and now bitch because the Women Basketball team may get a cut of the money.

 

[Volbucky]

Lol it wasn’t even Butchna leading the charge. It was one of the VN Prosecutors that relentlessly badgered him for 10 pages…

Yeah but he’s a common denominator in most pissing matches

 

[Rishvol]

Man athletes are going to want this and their NIL. Buckle up

How many student athletes does Tennessee have?

 

[Vols4us]

I think Mike Keith calls our next national championship in football. I hope he pays homage to John Ward and says "The national champion is clad in orange!" And I hope I am alive to experience that.

We were talking about how fast Teslas are in a straight line. The fastest car in this test ...and the Road and Track performance car of the year beating out the McLaren, Porsche, Aston Martin, Bentley, AMG etc etc is a mixed V12 and electric motor, 1002hp Lamborghini. The best Lamborghini ever made according to all these guys, that beat out the heavyweights head to head in this years contest. In a straight line it is 0-60 in 2.2 seconds. Quarter mile in 9.7 seconds. $740,000.

A 4 door sedan Tesla model S plaid can run the same 0-60 and beat it in a quarter mile. For maybe $81k brand new?View attachment 715142 I will go check that price and come back. It will run with every single supercar in this test, and outrun most in a quarter mile. Which is insane. Electric cars are apples to oranges when it comes to speed. FWIW, most of the time I drive a 2 door civic coupe with a manual transmission and some tuning (but factory exhaust bc I am not 17 and dont want to sound like a weedeater) and I flog it all the time because its fun. I love gas engines, and manual transmissions. Its still amazing how quick electric cars are though...also, when i get this last kid thru college, if I am still here, I am gonna get something better to drive for myself for the 1st time in my life. Maybe a used Cayman for $50k? Not sure yet. Heres hoping I am still around 6 or 7 years from now to do that. I have paid for pretty nice vehicles for my wife to haul kids around in...but I have personally never had a brand new vehicle in my life. Nor have I ever bought myself a nice vehicle. Always driven a work truck or van from the company and usually had a little beater thats paid for with a million miles like my civic to drive when not at work. Hopefully one day I get a bigger toy to play with

Wanna see a fast electric car?

Happy Friday

January 17, 2025: Take time out from all of the distractions of life to spend time in God's presence. Do not just say a prayer and be on your way; truly connect quietly and spiritually. Receive the essence of goodness and blessings that have been stored up for you. Be filled with possibilities and hope for the future. God is for you and with you. Jeremiah 29:11-12 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.

You can take it to the bank that anybody in the portal that lists us as a landing spot will not be visiting us (or we won’t be pursuing).

@TrippieRedd this intro..holy sh**

 

[JacketVol]

Irony is ironic. That's probably the ugliest, most negative, argumentative post I've seen since yesterday.

I’m still here. Lol. Danny has done a good job of keeping things quiet. King does have true information but it’s hard when you can’t share the whole thing. Glenn isn’t a great recruiter as a cold call type of sales guy but he can communicate with someone opened already by someone else. Maybe this helps. Getting attacked is never fun and the nature of this board makes it easy.

Evidently my posts hit hard at times. Blessing and a curse...

Did I miss something here?
