Colton Hood out for year?

[KingtUT]

At this point we should just let teams score and try and out score them. If he's out we have zero chance at all of stopping Oklahoma throwing the ball.

Thought we were already doing that.

The one criticism I have of this coaching staff is its inability to keep their players healthy.

But after the Nico episode last year I wonder if players claim injuries to bargain for more money. Either way we are having injuries at an exceptional rate.

Maybe my brain sucks but it seems like we stayed pretty healthy all year last year

 

[OmahaOmaha]

That is an option that would theoretically work.

If you could recover half of them, absolutely. You are just talking about 20 yards or so. 1 pass completion.

Last night AP said Hood is a 60% chance to play. sounds like he pulled a calf muscle

My son strained his calf in high school. He missed the whole year. Hopefully Hood's is not that bad.

 

[NighthawkVol]

I understand that but isn't the coach's fault whenever a player gets hurt

That's not how you Volnation, Bro.

On defense. The WRs and OL got hit hard with injuries.

I agree. Maybe it's time to look closer at our S&C coach

Oh haven’t you heard a few on here say he is faking. If a player is hurt he is evaluated by the medical staff. They know whether a player is injured or not. Hood came in and out back and forth after calf issue. That isn’t somebody faking, Gibson’s injury is not a fake it was evaluated by medical staff. Hood is a baller, if he can go Saturday he will. Some of these accusations and insinuations are just stupid and moronic. GBO

Boogie Bentley sucks. He will say anything for clicks. Don’t give them to him

 

[sonofUT62]

I can't find it anywhere, but didn't we replace S&C coach here in the last year or so?

Wasn't Coach Ek doing some of that work in addition to ST as well?

Just seems in the last year or two we've had an uptick in injuries that are mobility related like muscle, ligament type stuff.

Speaking of Ekler, with Rhule as a hot name headed to PSU, any chance we could get Ek back?

Nebraska has apparently won 2 games this year just off ST and their fan base is obsessed with Ek. I think he has a job there as long as he wants. He definitely seems to be missed here.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

LoL. We gotta stop them a few times at least

I’d settle for just taking the ball away from them and scoring.

 

[barrylee]

The moral of my post is don’t listen to Booger Bentley.

Yep, he titles his videos negatively just to get people to click on!

When he first started I watched him some. Of course it was 22 the night we beat bama so I would have listened to anything Vol related.

Now, can’t stand to listen to him.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Basillio has more credibility than Booger Bentley.

I doubt it.

 

[Rocky Top T]

I doubt it.

Basillo has much more insight than Bentley. He's been on the air for over 30 years. Bentley is just a YouTuber, that's it. Bentley doesn't talk about nothing that Vol fans don't already know.

Im not really sure what the point of listening to guys like Bentley is. I dont always listen to Eric Cain because it feels most of the time its just filler episodes, but I definitely turn it off when he does his segments with him.

 

[Rocky Top T]

Boogie doesn't claim to be an insider. If he talks about it, he is generally reading it somewhere and he usually says exactly where he is reading it.

He's a clown. There are several Vol YouTubers that are much better

I like blue chip breakdown. Sometimes he’s a little overly critical imo but overall does a good job

 

[CAVPUT]

That's not how you Volnation, Bro.

Want me to work with him? I think I can whip him into shape in no time.

 

[cgrish]

Yes since OKL probably gonna score every possession anyways, hopefully we could recover some of them.

 

[GrizzlyVol]

I don't know about for the year, heard a calf strain but that's just what I heard, doubt we see him vs Okl....offense will have to score 70 for a chance, its going to be ugly I'm afraid

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

I don't know him. I have watched it on a number of occasions though and I am principally punching back at any insinuation that Boogie presents himself as an insider having any sort of special knowledge. He's as upfront as any person could possibly be, that he is just an enthusiastic fan.

I liked him ok at first but now I cant stand him. He's an insufferable self-promoter who NEVER shuts up about hitting the like button, subscribing, peddling his merch, etc! Not to mention his click bait titles and obnoxiously long video intros! I unsubscribed and disabled notifications from him a while ago.
