Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[mrMet]

Not my flavor but lots of people enjoy it. Heck, I couldn’t even pawn it off to my two boys. They didn’t like it either.

I’m also not a double oak guy

You start talking like that it’ll be a 17-16 game

The AP dog fight comes to mind lol.

But I do think Nico plays into the third quarter. Just going off memory, I can't actually remember any games where the starter didn't come out for the third quarter under Heupel. Could be wrong there.

Does Nico only play 1st half vs Mocs?

all game….. we will use his ten TD passes to kick off his heisman campaign.

O'Gara: Why most college football fans should be rooting for Texas A&M to beat Notre Dame

Saturday night in College Station should have more than just the 12th Man on its side.

Innnteresting angle. Root for A&M to keep ND from the playoff because ND's schedule is so weak.

Do you think Tennessee will have a top 5 class in 2026? @KingVFL Seems like Tennessee targeting higher rated targets every class that passes

Hard to say.. there are a lot of good players in Tennessee and North Carolina that we’re in on, which would go a long way (On3 rankings):

North Carolina
QB: Faizon Brandon (11)
WR: Brody Keefe (284)
OL: Leo Delaney (88)
TE: Kendre Harrison (12)
DL: Rodney Dunham (57)
CB: Samari Matthews (127)

Tennessee
WR: Tyreek King (274)
OL: Brody Keefe
TE: Carson Sneed (175)
DL: Zach Groves (98)
CB: Caden Harris (150)
CB: Justin Hopkins (157)
S: Craig Tutt
ATH: Joel Wyatt (115)

If all we do is close 80% of those guys we have a top 10 class and if we sprinkle on top a bunch of the Georgia, Virginia and California kids we’re in on, that’ll push us towards the top 5.

To lock in top 5 for sure, we’d likely need multiple 5 stars.. my top ones right now for us are Faizon, Harrison and RJ Sermons from California.

Consider buying inexpensive light colored cushions?

But how does that help when you’re trying to make a point?

As AP and Hubbs said, Tennessee is swimming in different waters now when it comes to recruiting targets

Hey. A doctor with long fingers can make a prostate exam a life changing experience. That’s what a friend told me, at least.

More about finger, uh.... circumference.....pretty sure the word that starts with a G and sounds like Birth will get my post deleted.

For real though, my FIL was able to have his done in conjunction with a necessary operation that he had to go under for. I'm early 40's and trying to hold off for that option to arise or a tiny lady doctor with a hand/fingers the size of the guy in Scary Movie 2 with the tiny hand.

Edit: Actually, upon further review the fingers are still too large. Just glad I'm not one of @OGbabyaviVol 's horses that gets half the damn arm....

Is it wishful thinking on my behalf to expect Pili to be equivalent to having an NFL mike backer on the field for us. Given his age/strength and how good he was at BYU?

Yes I think it is. He would probably already be in the NFL if he was that good. Can he be a top level college Mike LB if not forced to play too much in space against slot WR's and top receiving TE's too often?

Yes, especially since we have Will LB'ers with elite speed/athletic ability and should have good enough play from the star/nickel and safety positions to keep Pili in situations that he is best suited to.

Off subject….but did anyone see see that the Colts cut their 5th, 6th, and 7th round picks from THIS year?

Other than Ho-Ho moms, where do twinkle and snow balls fall n a Yeti's hierarchy of snack cakes?

Pretty sure Snoballs are actually Yeti turds that they have secretly been bartered to Hostess in return for large plots of land for them to roam, be bitter about their lack of mating opportunities, take/send nudez and maintain puppy farms for food.

I've probably watched Smokey and the Bandit and Blazing Saddles 100 times each. That's 2 of the funniest movies ever made. Sadly, they don't make them like that anymore. We need more "rednecks" in Hollywood.
I couldn't imagine anyone else playing Buford T. Justice but Jackie Gleason. That's one of my top 5 favorite movie characters of all time. Whoever picked him for that role, nailed it.
