Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[TrippieRedd]

So was Nico. It’ll be interesting to see how all this unfolds

Yup. Lopez wild be a dream in this offense.

The portal is loaded with Lineman. Not sure what our needs are anymore besides finding a QB

 

[BigThunder]

The bylaws that the SEC has on transfers could be fought and won. Ole Miss is in the mix now for a transfer QB. Would not be surprised to see Nico land there.

Honestly, I’ve had similar thoughts. It would surprise me zero if someone fought it and won in court.

 

[UTSuave’]

It’s a big deal now.

He certainly would be.

I noticed. After that show, Will West was on, what a douche, and he flat out said it was unprofessional of UT to release contract negotiations. WTH?? And these are our LOCAL guys. That station needs a purge.

I turn the radio off when I hear Will West on. He was on the sports source spewing that same info.

If it was up to you and you were given 4 million to use in the portal, how would you use it (from the choices below):

A starting QB
A backup QB
A starting RB
A backup RB
A starting Olineman
A backup Olineman
A starting WR
A backup WR

(I purposely left out defense because I believe the 4 million is needed more on offense. But, if you disagree, please list a defensive position).

 

[rocktopper16]

The amount of Runningbacks and Lineman in the portal if baffling..

 

[drvenner]

No mowing for me for a while. Having the first of my hips replaced on Thursday, so I will be unable to complete my lawn care duties and responsibilities. Good news is, crocs are not forbidden in the recovery phase.



<insert joke>

Awe man. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery. I think wearing the hat around the house will probably help.

Find a good RB with what’s left offensively.

I’m fine with our receivers honestly.

I edited it but feel free to name a defensive position.

 

[StoVol]

Not Nico related but anyone else watching Mobland? Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren are such good actors!

What streaming service?

 

[tn4elvis]

What streaming service?

Paramount +

 

[PYSCHO]

Shedeur???

what a crock

 

[JCVol00]

Anyone catch the Harrison Bailey interview today? He was asked about the nico situation and he started to say “it doesn’t surprise me” but caught himself. Went on to talk highly of ut and heupel so im presuming he was dissing on nico

 

[franklinpence]

Thank you. Going to get the second one done a little later this year. Looking forward to a lot less pain and spending more time enjoying my family.

Judging by your avi, you might want to consider smaller portions at mealtime.

And @Weezer needs to start cooking healthier meals for you.

Prayers for a flawless procedure and quick recovery.

This article says Nico to UNC is out and likely because they’re getting Lopez

Report: Bill Belichick and North Carolina are out on Nico Iamaleava

 

[butchna]

No but he was crystal balled.

So was Nico.

Edit: Noted the update.

 

[Brillovol]

You know, part of me feels a bit bad for Nico. It’s really just a sad situation. Tennessee obviously did the right thing and we’re going to be better off long-term, but to watch a career derail like this in real-time is tough. He seemed by all accounts like a quiet kid who just wanted to play football, and now his dad and handlers have likely ruined him.

If he ends up at a place like Tulane, it will be funny, but also just a really sad outcome of this entire thing.

He’s culpable for his own actions tho. Leaving everyone on read, no show at practice, not shutting it down, all on him.

Sure, he’s been negatively influenced. But some of this is 100% on him.

@Freak if this is not allowed, please just delete post.

Guys and gals...I come to you hat in hand. As many of you know, these last 3 years have been an extremely trying time for my family and me. From cancer to fractured backs to broken hips...it has left us/me in a terrible state. While we have overcome all of the sickness, it has left me asking you all for help. I have never had to do anything like this, so please forgive me if I stumble with my ask.

I have set up a gofundme, and my story is shared there. As I said, I've never done anything like this before, so setting it up was completely nerve wracking...my anxiety is through the roof right now. I try and be as humble a man as I can be, not too proud; yet, this is still hard for me.

Anything you can spare will be very appreciated; and, words could never describe how grateful I am.

I love you all, and hope each one of you and your families are doing well. Thank you so much.
