"We can’t compete with them in any way" - You

No, David Sanders is not a WR. Neither is Mariyon Dye. But Tennessee beat Ohio State for both. "In any way" is not limited to WR. That's patently obvious, unless you're an idiot. So pointing out that Sanders isn't a WR, in this context, is idiotic.

Facts that are inconvenient to your argument are nonetheless facts.

There's also that pesky little fact that there is more opportunity for playing time here than at Ohio State, and that specifically relates to WRs.

Taking Leacock back would be a fallback plan if we miss on all the portal WRs we like.

I'd rather we just roll with Trey Weary

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

Offseason? This will happen in the middle of the season

Their leverage depends on how he does, I don’t think schools are going to bow down to their demands without seeing some great production. Nobody else bought into him in the spring portal. They might want to cool their jets before demanding more. GBO

 

[JCVol00]

Anyone.

Wide Receiver upgrade?

I hear Nathan Leacock is available

[Leeleesteeth]

Oh no. Staff can't recruit.
Should have paid him what he wanted.
Ceiling next year is 6 wins.
Gloom, despair and agony on me.
Deep dark depression, excessive misery.


Dang that was fun.

Stuffed in a locker

Kind of wish we would tamper, I mean completely legit reach out to Squirrel and bring him home.

We take too long to get going in the portal. By the time we decide to offer a player it’s too late. Heupel must reevaluate how they approach the portal. The lack of urgency to improve the roster this offseason is bizarre

 

[bpalmer28]

I blame @ntxVOL. This happened because HE canceled his Spyre subscription.

I agree and it’s very frustrating and will continue to bite us in the a$$. We need a f’n GM!!!!!

Might need a GM

 

[bpalmer28]

Our WRs were worse than anyone imagined.

With a portal staff that is waaay more aggressive than what the f we got going on now. Texas makes a few calls and hand picks the top DT in the portal. For us currently , he’d take five visits and get to back with us in a week then say he’s going somewhere else.

According to UGA247 beat writers, his representatives were pimping him out to the highest bidder. That’s why UGA backed off.

100% Beyond bizarre!!

 

[Woodlawn VOL]

While we didn’t need a lot and the spring portal is not loaded with high caliber talent like the winter portal, I still expected us to be more aggressive with a few defensive players and at least 1 receiver that could help impact our team. I am not in favor for just taking a body, but I have to believe there are a few defensive players and at least 1 wide receiver out there that could help. Time is a ticking we better get moving, but like I say I trust this staff until they show it isn’t working. We did address quarterback and I think Heupel can help him improve even more. Maybe we will finish strong late here with 2-3 more good pickups. GBO

 

[RiseToTheTop]

He cant play


Everyone missed there. Recruiting services, coaching staffs, everyone. It happens.

 

[volinbama256]

with our lack of portal action overall in football the last two cycles (with who've we lost to the portal) and this basketball portal, we're looking like we will most likely take a step back in both sports this coming season. We seem to be taking too long to make decisions/evaluate, while other schools are just pulling the trigger.

Oh boy. Hope he's good.

and where did Texas end up last season? Losing in the playoffs to Ohio St just like we did. Man I just laugh at you people thinking you have any clue what goes on behind the scenes with our staff and portal recruiting.
