Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[JT3]

We must spend big on the secondary in the portal. Has to be a priority.

I hate Alabama so much. There’s nothing I hate more than watching them smoke cigars with 5 minutes left.

I would've given your children to the football gods for them to miracle us into a victory when I saw them lighting up with that much time left.

 

[mrMet]

Love you brother

No love u brother! Where you at again? I remember it was somewhere north AL or I could be drunk??

 

[vol9799]

And I appreciate your honesty.

Makes much more sense than trying to convince me that Florida is somewhere below Vandy and South Florida in terms of college football jobs.

Impossible for any of us to offer unbiased analysis on what the average coach would think about the jobs at schools we hate. Might as well just be honest that we wish them nothing but the worst and move on.

You both seem drunk. . .

I have 2 things to add to the numerous observations about that dog crap.

Mike Matthews kinda sucks
Josh Heupel, still love him, but he’s kind of a dumbass
(But he’s our dumbass)

 

[LotteryPick]

Since Meyer for sure. But even since Meyer, Muschamp had an 11-win season, McElwain won the SECe twice, Mullen had two 11 win seasons and won the SECe. Napier is the only one who has done basically nothing.

A coach away…

The previous coaches weren't coaching in an NIL landscape. Miami/FSU are more willing to spend in both high school recruiting and the portal and that makes it more difficult for the UF coach. They may make a slam dunk hire, but everyone is "a coach away" and the game has changed since their last coaching search.

 

[Smokey123]

The defense was far from good tonight… but they only allowed 28 points with multiple 3 and outs and a TO. Shut down their run game. If you asked anyone before the game they’d assume that’d be enough to get us a win

 

[mrMet]

I mean they did just beat Top 10 LSU and hold two Top 25 wins (SC being ranked at the time) to our 0. So yea, I actually would have to agree that they are in a much better position than we are.

That’s fine if you truly trust the AP polls but let me not catch you on here moaning and groaning about the AP polls ever again because I will bust your as$

PS: LSU and SC suck bigger as$ than your ex gf

It's midnight and it's not even Halftime for FSU. . .

Down 13-3 at the half

and Winless Oregon St down 13-10 at the half to LAFAYATTE

Oregon state I say? Hmm, didn't Jermod McCoy come from there?

JERMOD WHY

MOD WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TEAR YOUR KNEE IN HALF IN FLIPPING JANUARY

 

[JT3]

I kinda think Tim Banks is over hated, but man does he wilt in big spots. We knew our secondary was outmatched today. We knew they were outmatched against OSU in the playoffs. Why not send the house and just live and die by our all world pass rush? We sent four all night and dropped into coverage.

We probably played enough defense to win, but we needed to create more havoc in the 2H with how the 1H ended. Why not send the house and live with the consequences? I’ll never understand it.

Unfortunately we cant play man. That's why you cant call all out blitzes. Everytime we are in man-to-man somebody is getting burned for a 1st down.

Huntsville. Born and raised here, was saddled with this cursed fandom from my father’s family, which is from a mix of Knox area and waynesboro TN

It makes me wish very immoral things upon them.

Not ashamed, but will not disclose.

 

[nashvol1]

You must not keep up lmao

You’re a met fan, enough said

 

[mrMet]

Watch them play and them come back here. They beat a top ten team today and we did not. Better coached team with way less talent. Give Heupel that team and see what he does. Moron.

“Beat a top 10 team” yet they’re favored at home. It’s called a fraudulent ranking. Welcome to reality brother

While I don’t disagree, the soft ass zone gets picks apart by any QB with a pulse, even if you drop 7-8. You gotta take more chances in a game like this where you’re already playing from behind, at least in my couch QB opinion.

 

[JCVol00]

Ucla got DEI’d

 

[mrMet]

The call was the easiest call for their defense to diagnose. It was always gonna be a pass to Kitselman and they knew it. We all knew it.

We all knew it and if Joey A throws a good pass, it’s still a touchdown. That’s the beauty of it all

 

[Smokey123]

 

[rocktopper16]

We got MState during their home whiteout. We got Arkansas throwing the kitchen sink at us with Petrino trying to coach for the HC gig. We then head to Alabama at night not getting a single favorable call. Just a rough three weeks. Emotions also got the best of us tonight. Joey hurting his kneck didn’t help none either.

I’m drunk. Idk. Go Vols.

 

[mrMet]

You both seem drunk. . .

I’m about to pour another glass. Should be a fun morning

Not to poo on you, but that’s the obvious point. As bad as our secondary has been, we’re losing all of them to the draft. I wouldn’t even blame Gibson for leaving with all the work he did to add weight over the offseason. He may not be a first rounder, but someone will take a chance on him and I think he could end up the best of this bunch in the NFL.

 

[volfaninpa]

Who are the leaders on this team? Tyre West? Bishop?

I'm frustrated with coaching, but some of these players have to hold their teammates accountable for some of this. But, who are those leaders to do that?

 

[JT3]

Offense didnt show up enough tonight. 20 points was never going to cut it especially when the offense gives up 9 points as well.

Our Defense is not good. We know this. We have to win with Offense this year. Giving up 28 points defensively I would have bet that we win that game.

I honestly trust the AP more than I do other polls, but I understand your point. Overall, I don’t care about polls until at least weeks 6+. By that point we have a decent understanding of who’s good and who’s a pretender.

As for the gf point, I’ve been married/with my wife for a total of 11 years. I honestly can’t remember the last gf, but I do know she had a decent ass.
