Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[buffaloblue]

Tennessee is handling this so well. Got out in front of it. Never bashed the kid. Letting it play out. If he lost the locker room the narrative of getting out in front of it this way changes everything from a perception standpoint.

10/10 how this has been handled. And if, big IF, Nico wasn’t liked at all, this easily seals his fate.

Go Vols. Also no harm in bringing in one year Transfer to bridge the gap, but I will trust the coaches.

 

[UTK]

Never

Unlikely it happens either way. But I would respect if he came out and said he allowed people around him to cloud his judgment and apologized. Ain’t gonna happen though. Too connected to his family, he will go along with this nonsense most likely

Morris dealing

 

[TN-POSSUM]

What if rename him Possum?? Lol

That cat would smother you in your sleep if you did that.


Call him, Bozo. So you'll always remember how Nico acted today

Weezer expecting a national championship or you need to fire the coach after a few years is crazy talk. That will put us back in 5-7 win purgatory. You have to acknowledge that under the new NIL era that there are at least 10 teams that have significantly more money than we will ever have. The goal is a national championship but expecting one is not realistic. We have one in the last 60 years.

Not even what I said. Seems like you guys could at least be accurate about what I said.

#1 and 5 teams in Country. Let's put them on ESPN U.

 

[Weezer]

Roscoe is a good cat name.

D1 baseball getting a chub now that their darlings woke up.

A 12-team playoff where we got rocked.

By a team with double the budget Heupel had at their stadium. They also rocked everyone else in route to a national championship. Not sure if you are being serious or just talking crap?

 

[DD4ME]

Doyle making it to the 8th is elite

 

[Checker_the_Shire]

OK it's official Nico is now Money Maui

I’m genuinely curious, why isn’t anyone talking about G-Mac more than Merk? Is it just because Merk is the older, more experienced player or is he actually significantly better? I’ve been very excited about G-Mac and look forward to watching him play.

Can't believe you're not gonna do anything about @TN-POSSUM doxxing you, Rhonda.

Can’t believe you’re interrupting a perfectly meltdown by VN for this. Pathetic for licks, yes, I meant that. With that post, you haven’t graduated to ‘like’ geez

Edit: I forgot. Lest you forget.

 

[Rizzo924]

Just so we are clear the Illinois kid is a mercenary too.

I had that thought as well, but someone posted earlier (& I gave them a like) - I don't mind renegotiations but skipping practice & going dark is a big issue for me.

We shouldn’t have let them off the mat.

Time in system. You saw how important it was even for Nico. Makes me scratch my head more with him thinking he can take this act on the road and be ready in 3 months.

 

[DD4ME]

Sweating this game a touch. Wish we had insurance runs.

 

[Weezer]

Just saw a commercial for the new Naked Gun. Hilarious.

Truth

Doyle man....

 

[SpringBokVol]

I don’t want a new QB. I want to ride with who we got!

 

[JCVol00]

I just don't like the idea of what the Nico fallout might be.

I mean, we've built this thing around him since he took over for bowl practice in December 2023.

It's going to be tough.

Me either, Matthew’s, Stayley and Boo were all promised that Nico would be their qb. Theyre the ones im most worried about leaving

 

[DD4ME]

One more man

I do, not because I dont trust merk, I have a lot of confidence in him, i just dont like the idea of having 2 scholarship qbs going into a season, especially both being freshmen
