Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

Yeah, I think Alan Williams (is it?) was doing the bulk of the coaching at that position. Ostensibly to free up Banks to concentrate on coordinating.
At least that's what I may have read somewhere.

If that is the case, then let both of them go, because it did not work! The position group sucked, and obviously the coordinating and defense in general sucked.

Does he look like a Lane Kiffin

 

[SmyrnaATLVolisback]

How good is Littrell though? Short-lived term at Oklahoma was historically bad.

Entire WR core and half their OL was injured. He was the scape goat for Venebles.

 

[knoxvol52]

There's no way he said that.

So are you thinking CJH was miss quoted or never went that route at all..?

The 2 games that have me most worried about this season and moving forward.

Arkansas (after a bye with them having a new HC)
Vandy to end the year in Neyland with a ranked win

But also some positive games

Georgia (we didn't win, but Heupel & offense lit up Kirby)
at Florida (the most complete game we played all year, seemed the focus was there at every level that was an example of how good the team could have been)

I'd like to stay optimistic, but unfortunately with all the changes having young talent that develops is never a guarantee anymore...so being one of the youngest teams in the SEC and finishing 8-4 isn't quite as easy to spin as it would have been in years past. Hope we get a good bowl game and a matchup where we can show out.

Basketball season in full swing now!

Yeah the second half no-shows are concerning. As are the weeks coming off a bye. As are road games still. As is dropping the home season finally to permanent rival.

Can't be. Miss Quoted was & still is in Oxford.

Caleb herring will split time with Ross. Don’t see us taking a portal guy there. Jmo

Weathersby/ Dye/ Gentle
Campbell/Robinson
Hobbs/Utley/House
Herring/Ross

Carter/Bolton/Burns/Brayden Rouse
Telander/Perlotte/TJ White
Spillman/Harmon/Anes

That’s your front 7. Gibson, Redmond, Farooq, Poteat and Walton in the secondary, need some big portal additions there. Maybe McCoy or Hood come back after their draft grades, who knows.

Entire WR core and half their OL was injured. He was the scape goat for Venebles.

Also, Jackson Arnold just isn't a good QB and that killed their offense.

 

[Sandman Vol]

I’d be fine rolling with Faizon if he is the best. Get a new DC and elite players on defense. Let the defense carry you through half the year until Faizon figures it out more and win 10!

Better have top defense in the country ala 2024 if you’re gonna throw a freshman to the wolves…

 

[InVOLuntary]

No, I just have a hard time thinking he said that. Seems out of character. Maybe there is more context around it. He's usually very respectful of other programs. That was a shot at PSU.

 

[MemphisVol3]

Damn.

Golesh is non-committal on Durkin. If I were Heupel I would have already made that call over the weekend.

 

[Orangeburst]

Anybody got access?

I’m guessing this was in a response to a question about the high expectations at UT and not meant as a diss to PSU but on3 with that clickbait

It isnt official until 274 reports it.

 

[NMVol]

Nah, as others have suggested, intended to sate Vol fans.

 

[Tyler865]

Didn’t Lowe also say something like “I’m surprised Heupel wasn’t a candidate for other jobs” this cycle as well?

There’s a message here for sure.

 

[Sandman Vol]

Dang I didn’t realize Tyre West was already a senior lol

Might be our biggest loss not named McCoy/aguilar/brazzell

 

[Sandman Vol]

Anyone get a feeling that maybe all this stuff that's coming out now about Lane Kiffin now that he is leaving Ole Miss was exactly what he was running from? But it's a brand new leaf, y'all. He's changed. LSU is going to be different.

They got looser coeds and 4 times the amount of booze and cocaine. Temptation gonna get the best of the devil on the bayou.

 

[RandomUTfan]

Whether or not Golesh has a better staff will be a matter of opinion.

Only way to measure is Ws and Ls.

My opinion is that Auburn doesn't have the money to hire a better staff than Tennessee. Pretty good material evidence on which to base it.

 

[Sandman Vol]

Jackson Arnold is a five star we might could get on the cheap. I mean if stars matter, that is.

This post deserves 0 likes if not sarcastic.

I'm sure the conversation with the governor was about guarantees of cover.

Queue up James Lee Burke.

 

[Sandman Vol]

If this dude was a troll from another fan base and not just some dude who knew better than anyone else in the country how good the Florida job is, it would have been way more epic. Alas. SS is Scott Stricklin.

He won’t but Telander has to go. Would be a great G5 linebacker but not SEC. Perlotte, Rouse, Spillman, and White will have more speed. Tennessee lacked speed when players broke away from the DL.

Ethan Davis in 6 games 21 / 257 / 2

Miles Kitselman in 9 games 25 / 250 / 2

Yeah, but we need to let the senior start, because......
