Recruiting Football Talk VII

Good luck, Tobe.



Unless we play Arizona while you are there and then...

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

He should've just flew to Tijuana and walked back across the southern border...... instant eligibility. He probably would've gotten a free bus ride to Knoxville, too.

And a free apartment, free food and free health care.

I'll assume I should take Transfer rankings on 247 with a grain of salt for basketball. Their rankings are not that great for us.

And yet...a guy like McCaffrey is still worth his weight in gold to several teams.

To the right team with the right scheme. Niners got him without a first round pick in that trade.

Practically next door to New York.

You’re better off looking at Torvik’s team talent rankings once we get our roster settled.

What AR did in 4 games his rookie year had zero bearing on where Joe was drafted imo. I don’t think AR is gonna be great by any means, but saying he was a flop that caused teams to rethink drafting Joe is very premature.

Not asking anyone to agree with my opinion on the matter. But I'm also not changing my thoughts.

The number of transfers effects the rankings. Some of these teams are almost overhauling their roster. We still have ZZ, Mashak, and Estrella, who will all play big minutes next year.

If we add Lanier, we will move into the top 6-8. He is maybe considered the top scorer.

Never!

We got better.

Since you brought it up like a a$$hat what’s our worse loss by a backup Florida qb in your opinion?…and yes you have plenty of options to choose from imma say all of them just because during that time when the new season started we set ourselves up for disappointment..so it was like the good times just never happened and we always found a way to lose .

2013 when they brought in Tyler Murphy after we knocked out Jeff Driskell. I think that’s when they coined the opinion that we made opposing backup QBs Heisman contenders.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

We got better.

If we land Chaz Lanier then I'd agree. Right now I'm not sure we've really gotten enough additional offensive output with just 3 players incoming with who we lost.

I think we've gotten bigger Igor is 6'10", Felix is 6'11" and Dubar is 6'6"-6'8" all 3 likely playing frontcourt so those 3 are upgrades over Aidoo, Awaka, and JJJ imo. Now we need to add a perimeter scorer to help offset losing DK.

Practically next door to New York.

Hopefully individuals didn't fall for that BS want to be closer to home spill.

Finished the 2nd part of Dune. Masterpiece gets thrown around too liberally, imo; but...

It's amazing, nonetheless. Beautiful and brilliant, in every aspect. Some of the shots almost bring tears to the eyes, they are so unbelievable...wish id seen it on an even bigger screen.

Idk how loyal it is to Herbert's tale, but because of it, I think I may start reading the Dune books, at least the ones he wrote.

Highly recommend.

Yeah, unless something goes terribly wrong with the 3rd film it's going to be my favorite film trilogy. I also made sure to see it in IMAX and it made the experience so much better.

 

[knoxvol52]

He’s another one with elite arm angles and escape ability but he at least knows how to read a defense

Lots of Quarterbacks in NFL can't read defenses.

Do I think Sanders will be a great QB in NFL? Probably not but he isn't any worse than some already impersonating a QB already in the league.

 

[drvenner]

Not many of us realized how blessed we were.

 

[drvenner]

Also our park helps a lot on their total numbers. Their bats have traveled so it is not the only reason, but it is not a pitchers park.

You been reading the Arky baseball boards?

10:32 AM? I thought it was at 2:00!

Maybe caught a earlier Bus to Knoxville.

[drvenner]

Totally different personality from the coach, too. I don't wish him ill at all, but I am scratching my head about this one a little.

 

[knoxvol52]

So are the preds done?

Edmonton went up 3-1 over Kings .

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Do those inbreds not realize he can’t transfer to another sec school?
