Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

You put it where only Kits has a play. If incomplete you have another play and FG still in back pocket.

There was no spot where only kits had a play on it lol. Bama had such a jump on the pass he had to slow down to catch it. Only play was in the stands.

We’ve played Kentucky on the road at night in their best season in forever and beat them back in 2021. I think we’ll be fine this game.

That was such a great game. They had time of possession like 50 minutes or something and we keep striking on big plays.

Gators fire Napier paying 20 million to leave

 

[TheBigOne10]

I’ll feel much better about our overall trajectory if we beat Kentucky and OU. One foot in front of the other.

 

[drvenner]

I’m pissed. I’m angry. And I’m gonna be realistic. From now until the end of November, we can easily run the table to go 10-2 OR we can just as easily lose 4 more games to go 6-6.

That UK game is going to be tougher than we’re wanting to admit, OU will be a hard one to win, UF is in Gainesville and I’ve personally already checked that as a loss, and then there’s Vandy, who will want nothing more than to beat us during Pavia’s final college game. So 6-6 is very reasonable.

Sounds like you've already talked yourself into it.

 

[Outofmyvolcanmind]

Napier fired. Hope we go after most of their secondary and DB coach.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

Surely he doesn’t finish the season coaching after being fired?

Yes high and to the outside is where that ball needs to go

It’s Kentucky week. I’m over talking about it. We just have to finish strong and build from it. Go Vols!

 

[Devo182]

They allowed 28 points and held their RB’s to 49 yards. Ty had his 2nd lowest passing yards and 2nd worst completion %

Good point on the safety. Missed that earlier.

So the defense held them to less than any team this year in Tuscaloosa.

While the offense netted 11 points. And yet gained over 400 yards. They didn't play poorly, but critical mistakes killed them. Even the first drive.

Another game that just doesn't make much sense. So much inconsistency, mistakes...situational football.

Would yall be down to get Lagonza here finally? I would be.

Also this game looks even easier now. Coaches better not mess this up.

It was an atrocious pass by Ags.

That exact play was probably caught for a touchdown 50x across the country by all divisions of football.

He’s got to throw that high or out of bounds if he didn’t think he could hit it.

It was a bad throw but he was under immediate pressure and was injured. He certainly made a mistake but not as bad as it looked at first glance. I just love Joey and think the play call in that situation was the bigger issue. They knew what we were doing and so did the announcers. As always that’s with the benefit of hindsight.

[volsagain]

You have confidence your QB doesn’t make such a horrible throw behind the receiver where you throw it only where he can catch it OR it’s out of bounds. Joey just threw one of his worse throws this year. I’m ok with a fade call to Chris BUT still have to throw it where only he can catch it or out of bounds. Bad throw could still be a big issue.

It was a bad throw. After the hit he took his neck sure bothered him until half time. It seems when he takes a hard hit it takes him a little while to shake it off. As many boneheaded mistakes we made this just about insured we couldn't make it up. But we still had a chance but the boneheaded plays showed back up. Centering the ball while trying to change the play or blocking scream was killer after the turnover. We just kept making it harder to come back.

Please dont hire
Lane
Golesh

Please do hire, James Franklin.

 

[VolNash17]

I being honest here....
Why does Lane to UF scare everyone so much?
What has he ever won? Anywhere
He's had huge recruiting classes and $$$ to spend in the portal and what?

Him being 3rd best in the SEC at Ole Miss since he’s been there while winning a NY6 bowl should make everyone nervous. If he goes to a better job then yeah it should make you nervous. We’re 2-2 against the damn gators the last 4 years as it is… their record during that time?
6-7 - 38-14 L
6-7 - 38-33 W
5-7 - 29-16 L
8-5 - 23-17 OT W. That isn’t exactly great as it is now. They get a legitimate coach and the odds that looks worse heighten

 

[mr.checkerboards]

17 feels like a win.

Feels like there is still a path

 

[VolNRaleighNC]

College sports, especially football and basketball, are just stupid financially these days. Not headed anywhere near a good direction.

Starting with OU.

 

[Smokey123]

Try to throw a ball to the right of you when you have a linemen reaching at ur arm and another 6’4 LB jumping in front u with him hands up. Joey literally had to change his release just to get rid of the ball. There was no open window

 

[Devo182]

Competitive games ahead. Winning both would be an amazing bounce back. 1 out of 2 keeps us within striking distance of a big bowl game.

UK offense hasn't put up more than 16 the last 3 games. If the 1st quarter boys ride again, they could be buried. That said, they really took it to TEX play-for-play...hard to understand the SEC this season.

Coaches who haven't won anywhere don't scare me until they do. That's just me.
