Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Really good player. Comparable to John Olerud amongst his contemporaries.

56 WAR, ~2100 Hits, ~280 HR would be on the low end.

Only played 15 seasons. Had he played 20 - maybe?

He never even got close. Fell off the ballot with less than 5% of the vote.
Good post.
 
Sorry if I’m jinxing, but this Vitello squad might be better than the championship squad…when all things are done. This pitching is potentially way better…JMO.
Need to work on our defense, but you may be correct. This squads offensive lineup maybe deeper than the ‘22 team.
 
We never properly appreciate them til they’re gone…and then we canonize them to the point they’re irreplaceable. Comfort is that AD White is the Dalai Lama of identifying coaching talent and will identify the eventual epic replacement. Clone him, Boyd and Plowman and I’ll die a happy Vols fan.
Well said.

I still think that Curley needs to slide over to 3rd and Antigua start at SS. You may lose some pop with Antigua's bat but his MLB defensive plays trump what he lack on offensive side...Curley is projected as a 3rd baseman in MLB anyhow...
 
Happy Monday

February 24, 2025: This may feel like a really weird time because God has set your course to do something that seems outrageous. And, you have wondered whether or not you are really doing the Lord's will. The answer is Yes. Do not hesitate to continue on this path until you have accomplished what God has set you to do. Isaiah 50:7 For the Lord God will help Me; therefore I will not be disgraced; therefore I have set My face like a flint, and I know that I will not be ashamed.
 
Looking at Lady Vols remaining schedule and the schedule of the 3 teams a game ahead of them in conference standings…we have a chance to move up to the 5 seed if the ladies can win out, and will almost surely move to the 6 seed if they win out. (Currently the 8 seed). Gotta beat the Cats in Lexington Thursday night.

Ole Miss has South Carolina and LSU left, and we have the tiebreaker over them.

Bama plays LSU, Oklahoma has an easier game against Florida, and then Bama and Oklahoma play each other last game of season. We have the tie breaker over Bama, but Oklahoma has it over us.
 
Shedeur Sanders not going to do throwing drills at Combine. Another big nothing burger top QB's usually don't.
