Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Hardy]

Fayetteville is the nicest part of Arkansas, you should angle for there lol.

I was in Bentonville and was surprised by how much I liked it.

I watched my not so little girl graduate with a 97 GPA this afternoon. I didn't graduate high school, I went back for my GED after dropping out. I couldn't be prouder. High school is over, I shook the hands of many if her high school friends this evening......... And it hit me, most of them for the last time.

Felipe will be going to Tennessee Tech engineering school soon. Salvador and Ryan to the Army National Guard. Brooklyn to ETSU, many others elsewhere. My little girl will be seeking her teaching degree this fall......... I'm not ready........ But she is.

Our talent is taking a step back this year.

A condition on switching to Adidas should be this: We are Pantone 151C. That is the only shade of Orange that should ever be used for any apparel.

Pantone 151c - Google Search

 

[rikberry31]

It could of course surprise to the upside but that’s my opinion as of now.

Disagree with the bolded.

And you conveniently glossed over the qb/wr rooms.

Why do you think our oline will be worse than last year? I happen to think our oline will be vastly improved and a strength of the team.

 

[rikberry31]

Go watch highlights of John Mateer, Oklahoma's new QB and you will see how we can lose that game...

Those Boomers were saying the same thing about Nico last year. Sometimes its, "Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane."

Happy Tuesday everyone.

May 20, 2025: So, you are not perfect! Do you know anyone who is? To err is human. It is okay to set high standards of perfection, but give yourself some latitude in criticizing yourself when you make a mistake. Do what you can to fix it, and leave the rest to the Lord. Never forget that you are precious in God's sight. Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Real men get out of the truck to lock the hubs in

True, but old men kinda like to just twist the knob to 4H.

 

[walkenvol]

I've got manual warn locks on my 93 f150. I like it that way

I’ve got manual warn locks on my ‘68 Jeepster Comando half cab - those hubs had staying power remaining on the market so long

lol, Are you old enough to remember Adidas uniforms across all sports? I have never seen so many different shades of “Pantone 151C”.

NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered a strange rock in Mars’ Jezero Crater covered with tiny, round lumps that resemble a nest of spider eggs

Uhoh, is our future timeline Terminator or Aliens?
Or an awful mashup?

I tried to upload a picture but it was blocked
I am going into hiding before they find me. Good luck VN!

$200 million and the college face of the brand…

I’d wear Goodfellows” brand from Target for that..

Geez. Gotta find ways to pay these freaking kids

I don’t get it. People complain that we don’t have the $$ to keep up with this or that school, then when we actually try and get a deal that will help us with that, it’s not good enough.

If we’re winning nobody will care that we are wearing Adidas

 

[rikberry31]

Yeah I had really hard time finding anything adidas that I wanted to wear too.

Truly how much official provider merch does the average fan own. I would guess it isn't as much as other branded gear. I don't think I own one Nike item and I have a ton.

 

[rikberry31]

@Enki, you need this.

I'm good friends with the fella that drives that bus, Bus 17. He practically runs me off the road every morning, thanks Doug.

 

[rikberry31]

Then everyone is going to be wearing adidas and Nike gear at the same time again and it will be AGITATING.

Everybody will be wearing everything anyway. I got Russell gear that is collecting Social Security that I wear sometimes.

 

[rikberry31]

Listen ive signed off on Bike, Russell, Keds, all of them. But ill be damned if we use the same ****ing crap that South Carolina douchebags use.

Yeah, we want Nike, Alabubba gear. If we are looking to wear a uni that isn't manufactured by a company supplying unis to some team we hate, the we will have to make them ourselves.

 

[rikberry31]

I remember when only the best players on our junior high team got Bike helmets.

I got a Wilson that had the protection just like the helmets that were sold in the Sears Catalog

EDIT: prolly why I’m the way I am now…mass concussions

Yeah, the pretty boys got the Bikes.

 

[Volsdeep4]

Lol what’s the deal with former wr’s taking shots at us
View attachment 743086

Did he also play baseball for us?

 

[rikberry31]

All this fashion talk is wearing me out. Bottom line: WE ARE WEARING BRIGHT PANTONE 151. I think that pretty much violates all known fashion rules, so style is moot. I don't care if Christian Dior or that kid that made his own shirt produced our gear, were not going to win any fashion awards.
Personally I love it, I always have an excuse to clash.
