Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

[Brillovol]

Eh, Plowman was way up there and affects more. Even Randy Boyd has been transformative for the University and I was not at all happy about a politician taking that job.

Randy Boyd isn’t a politician, he’s a businessman that held a commissioner position at ECD. Big difference.

Boo (definitely transferring)
McMurray (graduation)
McCoy (draft)
Beasley (replaced moved down depth chart)
Merritt (not playing could develop but many just leave if not playing quick)
Stewart (git)
Brazzel (git)
Lewis (git)

Beasley, Merritt, Brazzell, Lewis, Poteat, Goree all are in their first 1 or 2 years in the program, I doubt they fly the coop when we will have so many starting spots in the secondary open for competition next year

Agree on Boo sadly

Stewart likely git but its his last year next year so who knows, dude has transferred a lot so far and doesn't seem to be able to contribute anywhere

Getting paid well to perform at a high level, but with less expectation? Nobody is getting fired from Ole Miss for winning 9 games, but that happens routinely at LSU and UF. I know what I'd do.

Kiffin's contract allows a yearly extension when he reaches 7 wins. He makes $9M a year now. Why would anyone in his right mind leave a job like that. Simple answer is that Kiffin has the mind of a 10-year-old

Brooks loves him some Aguilar

Brooks is not a bad listen
He started off kind of weird but he’s came along and does a nice job

 

[Enki_Amenra]

We are beating OU and it's not gonna be close. . .

 

[Dadof2Vols]

Oh damn...didn't realize Hood was in his 3rd year. I think you're right, he gone.

Willie does a lot better at finding portal DBs than he has HS talent (so far).

Turnage, Hadden, Jeudy-Lally, McCoy, Hood....so far Gibson has probably been his best recruit from HS and it's been a small sample size with the injury.

Evaluating college players should be easier than evaluating high school players

Kiffin may be the highest paid coach in CFB after Florida and LSU get in a bidding war over him. PSU would probably be willing to enter the bidding war as well and Kiffin would be in the playoffs every year if he coached in the big10. Ole Miss will have to put up or shut up.

I doubt their will be much competition to be honest. We are going to portal a ton of DBs and we have typically hit on those. And they will likely see the writing on the wall. I don’t see us taking less than four.

My Favorite Boxer

Vastly underrated....................


At the Las Vegas Hilton, on October 29, 1987, Thomas “The Hitman” Hearns faced Juan Roldán for the vacant WBC middleweight title. At 6’1″ and possessing a devastating right hand, Hearns was a formidable force in the ring. The bout was a thrilling exchange of power punches, with Roldán proving to be a tough opponent.

In the fourth round, Hearns unleashed a combination that sent Roldán to the canvas, securing a knockout victory. This triumph made Hearns the first boxer in history to win world titles in four different weight classes—welterweight, super welterweight, light heavyweight, and middleweight. His achievement set a new benchmark in the sport and solidified his legacy as one of boxing’s greats.

Hahahaha dorkwitz in Florida. Thats funny.

MJ, from his Tirico segment last night, re: load management:

Jordan said. "You know, I never wanted to miss a game because it was an opportunity to prove. It was something that I felt like the fans are there that watch me play. I want to impress that guy way up on top who probably worked his [butt] off to get a ticket or to get money to buy the ticket."

And now we have betting scandals.

I don't know if I'd use MJ as my "now we have betting scandals" example...

 

[BigSteve09]

We needed to beat UGA or Alabama for Aguilar to be recognized as one of the best. That’s just the way the league works.

It was over for Jag national hype the second he threw the Bama pick 6. It is what it is. It's not over for him in any other sense. I personally like that he is overlooked still. Keep crushing it.

@SoilVol
Just recorded a cool video of a huge hawk or eagle getting attacked by some crows or something, . I had just gotten to the garage when I heard the birds squawking like crazy. I looked up and this giant hawk/eagle was flying around getting dive bombed by a bunch of smaller birds. They chased it in a circle about 3 or 4 times.

I didnt have my phone, so I got at from the truck then walked up to the house. I recorded the big hawk sitting in the top of a tree with 6-8 smaller birds diving and squawking at it, trying to run it off. It must've been raiding their nests or something.

I'll see if I can get my buddy to upload it for me after while.

Surprised Juan Roldán is your favorite boxer, not many people have heard of him. . .

[Enki_Amenra]

Bert vemanals is gonna move up that list after the Vols beat them by 20+

 

[BigSteve09]

Tried to find this earlier siap



They are not playing offense:



We are not playing Defense:


Offense doing work, even with limited explosives:


OU Defense is Elite:





I would like to beat OU and then make Venables the highest paid DC in CFB again
