Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Hardy]

I failed a class before, but never this tragically

These weak kids will sue for emotional abuse and harassment.


Edit: I see. It’s a joke.

 

[LaagerVol]

Will he get to fight someone on the team or is that just freshmen?

 

[KB5252]

Not what I was saying, every and right thinking person has fears or respect. If you have no fear or respect for things like fire, the weather, firearms, your Daddy, or God then you are a fool. You're a Disrepectfool. I have had extensive exposure to disrespectful people and time has proven everyone of them was an ignorant idiot.

Fair enough, I too believe everyone has fears, fear is a human instinct, a defense mechanism. But it can also be a crutch.

100% on board with Huepel, and I always felt like we needed a head coach that could win with less talent. That’s why I always had Chris Petersen on my wishlist going back to when we hired Kiffin. Huepel brings that to the table, and personally, I’ll take that over the ceo type HC that can recruit for us.

I do think he needs to surround himself with better recruiters in order to take the next step.

I think he needs to be a little bit more like Dabo when he was first building Texas. He hit on a few studs but had very few misses. Look at the 2023 class… We have 3 starter level players, 6 depth level players and 14 guys that are no longer with us. Last years class shows a lot more potential so hopefully it will be a step in the right direction.

It can also hinder you in sports/ life if you allow it to control you.

April 30, 1900
On April 30, 1900, John Luther "Casey" Jones was not originally scheduled to work. He had just completed a run and was looking forward to rest, but agreed to take another driver's place on the "Cannonball Express" from Memphis to Canton, Mississippi. This willingness to help colleagues was typical of his generous nature. The train departed Memphis at 12:50 a.m., running about 95 minutes behind schedule. Casey, with his well-known determination to maintain on-time service, was attempting to make up the delay throughout the journey.

As the Cannonball approached Vaughan, Mississippi, neither Casey nor his fireman Sim Webb could see the danger ahead until it was almost too late. A freight train was partially occupying the main line due to a series of miscommunications and equipment failures. When they spotted the red lights of the caboose, they were traveling at approximately 75 miles per hour with severely limited visibility due to fog and a sharp curve.

Casey's final actions became the stuff of legend. In the moment of crisis, he ordered Webb to jump while he stayed aboard, desperately trying to slow the locomotive. He succeeded in reducing the speed dramatically before impact, from about 75 to 35 miles per hour. The collision was still catastrophic, with Casey crushed in the wreckage of his engine cab. He was the only fatality; all passengers survived, saved by his quick thinking and selfless courage.





Amazing how stories get told and legends are made...............The TRUTH is.........Casey was drunk, going way too fast, ignored a warning light, and fell into the brake.
Some hero......Poetic justice

I think everyone has fears. I have fear. Some people have lots of fears, some people have tears for fears.

Some people have irrational fears. Fears of missing aTWSS joke, of pocket presents, of seeing a nude Yeti, fear of waffle stomping said Yeti at Huddle House.

But above all everyone fears DN.

Yes! No. Maybe!!

Me and about seventy thousand of my good friends. Those are the only ones I know of.

I always thought he was high on coke. I hear he always had a chip on his shoulder because he couldn't get his own locker like his Uncle Davey.

Football program seems like they run things like a flea market while the others are a Kohls or Pennys

I mean...football is having to deal with trying to keep 80+ players happy all of which got agents, family and friends telling them they can go get bigger bags elsewhere.

[butchna]

They got John Slaughter also.

 

[csprig9]

how many people on here have season tix?

I did but I dropped them
I live in southern Indiana and the cost became too much for travel and tickets

[HoleInTheRoof]

how many people on here have season tix?

I have two sets. A set of two and a set of 3. In different sections. I was hoping to exchange them for a group of 4 somewhere at some point.

Second only to fearing TD........... Always hanging around together

 

[KB5252]

They fear the closed fists!


Penny is such a damn fraud

 

[butchna]

Yeah I agree. But NFL is a stat driven evaluation... very few "watch the tape" happens anymore despite what the talking heads say.

His % of fumbles based on carries was higher than everyone taken ahead of him...

Of course as fans we look at 4 games in question

at Vandy, 25 carries 175 yards
vs Miss State, 30 carries 140 yards 1 TD (backup QB 2nd half)
vs Kentucky, 27 carries 142 yards 2 TDs
vs Bama, 26 carries 139 yards 2 TDs

4-0 in those games as well...I think getting him outside the first 2 rounds is a steal...it sucks it was Cleveland though was hoping he'd land for a better team (like 49ers or Denver) so we could see him ball out.

If you have those numbers handy, EVERY ONE of the RBs ahead of him had a lower percentage than FOUR in two hundred fifty eight carries?

@Glitch

I found that disrespectful to a member of our armed services. @Glitch served as Seaman in the United States navy for years. hence why his yard looks like a Yeti squatted and peed everywhere.

 

[Rishvol]

I predict a fahrin in his future

If it's who I'm thinking it is. He's a professor at UT and does stuff like that all the time for social media (he may be a communications professor idk). He's had student athletes on his videos (scholarship and non)
