Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[jave36]

So we have 1.2 mil to play with

Man I sure hope we plan to start him for that kind of money. Could get some other really good pieces for a million.

If anyone wants to see it, this is a Big 10 show going off on Nico and laughing at the idea that UCLA is going to prepare Nico for the NFL better than Heupel’s offense. From 1:30 - 10:00 minutes. Someone was talking about this latest lie from Fat Nic and crazy Landers.

Love it. Every backup should walk out. Madden hasn’t played football since his junior year in high school. Put him in if they need a substitute.

2 Weeks before the season the dad can say we need 3 million more or both of my sons aren't playing this year.

Especially if their other QBs run for the exits. Let it be so.

I think they have a slew of QBs on their roster, though.
I doubt they'll miss one freshman QB much. But it wouldn't surprise me to see one or two more bolt before the portal closes.

Just remember, in either of Aguiler’s seasons as a starter he has more passing yards & TDs than Nico in his entire UT career.

 

[85SugarVol]

Really wish his name was Aguilera so we could post pics and jokes with Christina all year.

Who says we still can’t

 

[KB5252]

He made the playoffs last year, big dog.

Butch gonna Butch...........

 

[KB5252]

Yep. Or mid-season before a big game. Before bowl eligibility. They can extort tf out of them.

UCLA has put themselves in a very difficult spot. Nick has them by the balls, Nico's camp had next to zero leverage and somehow UCLA let them leverage that into Nick having complete control of the QB room.

 

[85SugarVol]

In that Coach CHOSE to offer him? Yes.

Yea that’s not the way it was implied. You can offer 4 guys - and 1 would be the first choice.

But whatever, I’m over it.

I’m riding with Joey Football. Looking forward to see what Heup can do with him.

For those with experience with NCSA, can you tell me if it was worth it? Thinking of signing up my daughter for volleyball.

@Z06VolinWV @SergeantVol i saw y’all talk about it in past threads. Y’all have any wise words?

It’ll defintely help with garnering interest from at least D2, D3, and NAIA programs. Some schools rely heavy on them. Attend as many camps as possible too. The more contact with schools the better. I have a friend, his kid used NCSA and he’s in his junior year playing football for a D2 program. It’s especially helpful with sports that don’t have as much exposure as football, basketball, and baseball.

If UT is dishing out that money for Aguilar, it tells me the coaches believe he is their future starter. No way Merk is making near that.

 

[Plove23]

Maybe cam will come back with him, as a wr? @Plove23

Just kidding, sort of.

Lol

I wish I could find the positivity some of you seem to have. I just don't have it. I see a trainwreck, and I'm praying for survivors. I hope this new QB works out, but I have major doubts.

You are a Tennessee fan over the last 20 years and THIS is a train wreck? Nah bro. Not only is it not a train wreck, we upgraded from Nico and his stupid ass family drama, if maybe not physically.

 

[BigOrange15]

He’s getting $9M because of a QB the guy before him recruited

This is a non-point. That's literally how coaching changes and paying them works lol

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Some of you mother****ers oughta be medicated.

 

[JCP201]

UCLA going to get him too?

I'm 50/50 on the guy. Aguilar only game vs top notch competition at Applachain State last season was Clemson. Stats were 18/41 214 yards passing, 43.9% completion percentage and a 38.7 QBR. Not very good some are going to say what about his other games? Well I don't see a Georgia State or Louisiana Monroe in SEC. Big step up for the young man, hopefully Aguilar can be a game manager and not turn the ball over and score enough points to win. Going to be depending on defense more than ever this upcoming season imo..

When your team is that far outmatched it's hard for any QB to put up good numbers.

His line actually held up well, but his receivers couldn't get open. If you watch the highlights from that game he only had a couple bad throws. The rest were drops by WRs or breakups by tight coverage. But the placement was good on the throws where either his WR catches it or the DB breaks it up.

By no means am I saying he will win us a bunch of SEC games. There's definitely concern watching that game and I simply don't see him as a guy who is going to beat Florida in The Swamp or beat Georgia anywhere. (Oh how I'd love to be blatantly wrong and have this Cold Take'd). I do agree with your last few sentences. Manage games and put us in position to win so long as defense is solid.

To be fair, I didn't actually expect Nico could beat Georgia or Florida this year either.
