Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[JCP201]

Things to remember with this Nico situation happening.

1. The NIL era will cause more shady players in the future so be prepared.
2. Never name your pet after a player in this era of college sports.
3. Never tattoo your Favorite teams player on your body, because he/she may leave the program.
4. Never name your new born child after a player in the NIL era.

I learned that with VOLS coaches.

O&W game results...are...m-e-a-n-i-n-g-l-e-s-s.

We've been proven this time and time again, otherwise Dormady and HB would be the greatest ever and HH never would have done a damn thing like Bass predicted after his first O&W game

Yeah, the final score means nothing. But what they did today is live action, similar to a practice. All I am saying is that G-Mac has the arm and some
Wiggle to run around. Made better throws than Taterslinger.

This should be an absolute wake up call to star gazers. You see why Heupel is so selective with his players? You see why their mentality means so much to him? You see why he's always talking about "team first" guys? Wake up dorks. This isn't CFB 25 where a five star is automatically an 80 overall and a 3 star is a 70 overall. That's not how football works. Some players get overlooked, some players get overrated. But we have a coach that knows what matters most: are you going to make my team better? If so, sign on the dotted line and get to work

Exactly right. This is why our coaches in all sports handle things the way they do. This scenario is what always get with the “go to the highest bidder” players. By most accounts we were the highest bidder for Nico, and this is where we are. Those guys will always go to the highest bidder and be chasing (usually unethically) that next payday

THIS.

We lost our starting qb because someone leaked a rumor of a contract negotiation.

It doesn’t get any more fragile than that. Can’t believe we continue to fumble the bag and the management of our undeniably most important program.

if he had improved this spring, he probably would have been given the 4 mill. His stats weren’t any better than Milton’s the year before.

Agree. I’m hearing it was actually the team leaders that put nail in coffin for Nico. In the end, I believe a net positive, and cautionary tail for some of the players on the team. This will be a good thing for the squad.

A cautionary tail as old as time...

“Neyland Rising” has a nice ring to it…

Sweet mother of mercy, you've made 4 posts.

So happy for cam plove. Wish he was here but we get it. I’ll always root for the kid. Thank you for still stopping by.

Aww man this means a lot, thank you and I appreciate it

 

[Plove23]

We will always support him!

Thank you so much

I wonder what Ricky Gibson is saying today.

I came over from #voltwitter. They have been on his dad's neck all day. Especially after people like me came to defend him and Nico when all of this started. We assumed it was more of the typical garbage from national media. I had to go apologize to some journalists and eat a lot of crow. But we are hyper protective out on the socials.

Wow. So glad we are GangGang on the socials

Maybe everyone just chill. Didn't know the full story a day ago. Probably don't now. Can we not just chill and reflect down the road?

 

[JCVol00]

Oh fine, since no one else said it…GMac looked night and day better than Merk, granted there’s a ton of moving pieces there, but that’s my thoughts after the game

 

[apevol]

crazy the difference in love between one transfer and another

been a crazy weekend. that radio broadcast fot the o&w game felt more like Tennessee than anything has in a while

The more I read the more I feel Nico’s camp sorely misread the landscape and underestimated the weight their actions carried. The kid had the keys to this city. Now he’s gonna have the keys to his lambo and that might be it.

Stayley has butter fingers, and the qbs looked shaky in 7on7, we definitely need a qb to compete for qb1 in the portal, as well as a wr or 2

You got all of this in about 45 minutes?

Just from watching this he 7on7 and typed this after the first couple of drives of the scrimmage

Madden is at Arkansas

So Nico gonna walk on at Arkansas, thus avoiding the in sec transfer rule since not on scholarship. Then start for them this season, in the game against us in Knoxville. Holy hell that environment would be so metal.

 

[bignewt]

Nico about to be blackballed. Other coaches are going to band together and make an example out of him. Couldn't have picked a worse time to try and pull this stunt, never mind the time in the football cycle which is the absolute worst transfer window for a QB who wants to be a starter.

 

[Adam Sandler]

I don’t know why any top school would take him at this point. He’s proven he only cares about his interests first, not the school or team. And he’s proven to be average at best, with some flashes of excellence. Nico’s not worth it.

Like the usc qb that ended up at Boise and not getting the starting job

 

[drvenner]

Cam looking good in spring game

Great to see you!! Really hope Cam has a great year

For real. The guy had 2 years to learn the system here and they still had to dumb it down for him. Now he thinks he's gonna transfer to another school and master their system before the fall?

I honestly had no idea nico was this dumb.

Nico's Dad:

"Son, for your next interview the game plan is to wear a black hood. Please do your pre-reads of the reporters as this is clearly your strength."

everyone point and laugh

What if this was all crafted by a school that Nico’s crew was talking to and now they’re driving his NIL value down so they can get him for a bargain?

“More games being played off the field than on.”
