It's poor form to talk trash after a win. Before and during is fine. What's the use after a win?
Typically, you talk trash to an opponent after youve beaten them, after youve earned the right.....not before, and certainly not in the midst of losing to them for 12 straight years. I dont really care one way or another, kid wants to be a leader here, wants to express pride and confidence in the program hes about to join. Just gotta back it up now starting in 2019.
I don't know about trashing, but he was a disappointment on Rocky Top. Maybe it's coaching, maybe it's him. With that being said, I would have dropped out of school for 100k signing bonus too.
Do what? Its the opposite. Ever heard of the term bragging rights? You gotta have something to brag about first. You cant talk trash before youve earned the right.
Are you telling me that now is the time to talk trash to Alabama, after weve lost 11 in a row and are about to make it 12?
Hell no, you got not leg to stand on, its all hollow bravado. No, you beat somebody, you earn bragging rights.....THEN you tell em about it.
You gotta earn the right to talk trash.
He had 35 tackles as a 1 tech NT. I wouldn't call that disappointing. He did his job. Everyone expects every DLineman to be Ndamukong Suh and it just doesn't work like that. Especially when you're coaches suck at developing talent. I think he had a lot of potential that didn't get met but some people's comments are flat out disrespectful.
He talked a lot of mess and didnt back it up. Wasnt much of a leader. Was way over rated out of high school. Basically missed his freshman year because he was out of shape. Got hurt in the SCe game and was out the rest of year 2. He played decent his Jr. year. It just is what it is. Botch should have played him on offense. Hope he does well.
And those 5 wins, vs the best teams in Florida football history, are more than Battle, Majors, Kiffin, Dooley and Jones (4) combined. No Tennessee Head Coach has beaten Florida with any regularity since Battle (2-0 in 1970-71).....prior to that, you have to go back to the 1940s & 50s.
They weren't against the BEST Florida teams. It's almost stupid to say in their history too. They won the championship after the 1996 season, one in which they kicked our asses in Neyland. The year before when they played Nebraska for the natty, they beat us 62-37. They beat us 31-13 at home in 2002 and 59-20 in 2007. Not to mention the 34-20 ass beating our 1997 SEC champs got from them. Conversely, our national championship team beat them in OT by 3 only after they missed a chippy. We lost with better talent the next year too. Most years, we had the more talented team but Fulmer would choke up and play them not to lose
You might need to go back and check your facts before posting such BS nonsense
It's even poorer form to talk trash after getting your ass beat.
I know it hops up some of our more delusional fans, but this guy should be told to keep quiet.There's nothing good about it
You shouldn't let comments on a message board upset you so much. Its funny to watch, but its not healthy.
Tifwiw.
I do t respect your opinion on this matter. Sounds like someone that's afraid to talk because they may have to back it up.
Did you even read the context of his comment?
He did his job the majority of the time. His job isnt to make 80 tackles a year. Its to allow the LBs to make 80 tackles. Was he elite? No but maybe could've been but we could say that about a few talented players over the last 5 years. Injuries happen. Especially with our old S&C program apparently.
I don't respect anyone who talks the talk and hasn't walked the walked.
You sound like someone who hasn't faced any real competition in your life. If you had, you would know better
