Recruiting Football Talk VIII

I picked players I've seen play through my years of watching the NBA and I'm not old to see Wilt play live.

Why do people ignore Bill Russell?

Why do people ignore Bill Russell?

Because he played for the Celtics

Why do people ignore Bill Russell?

Because he was retired before most of us were born, in 1969. Closer than I thought, I was born in '71.

Yea, I was only 4 then but still, I know about him. Sad that one day, people will say the same thing about Jordan.

What a comeback from the Dodgers last night left for dead down 11-8 top 9th and then score 6 runs to win 14-11. Ohtani with the dagger a 3 run blast to take the lead...

Vols vs Vanderbilt at 5:00 p.m. on the deuce today..

I live north of Atlanta. Not sure why a NC stop was added. Really hoping next stop isn’t Palmetto.

Needs a hiatus in canada real quick

That was a good series opening win last night against Vandy.

The Vols could really use a sweep this weekend to gain some momentum and put themselves squarely back in the top 8 projections.

I want the Vols to host both rounds of the regionals. That’s the best path to Omaha.

The correct answer is Kareem. Skyhook was near unstoppable. Plus, he was in Airplane, a comedy classic.

He retired in 1969. I wasn't born until 1974.

39-11 overall
22-3 ASUN

Gotta win the conference tourney, but if we do........look out! Sleeper team in the regionals

 

[knoxvol52]

Texas
Georgia
LSU
Arkansas
Auburn
Are probably set as a top 8 seed in NCAA tournament

FSU and UNC looks like they are going to get a couple of the top 8 seeds


That leaves one left right now Vanderbilt has the inside track due to better RPI and SOS

Happy Saturday and GBO

May 10, 2025: There are things you need to do or take care of. Do not procrastinate. Rise up and accomplish what needs to be done. These tasks will not take care of themselves or dissolve with the passing of time. Be diligent. You cannot move forward until you deal with these issues. Proverbs 13:4 The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; but the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.

22-3 in conference. Assuming the Governors are the top seed in Tournament?

@butchna

Would Clowney be worth taking a look at if help needed at DE? Panthers cut Clowney probably a Salary Dump.

May 10, 1970

I'm not a huge hockey fan...........But this is iconic!


The iconic photo of Bobby Orr flying after scoring the Stanley Cup-winning goal for the Boston Bruins was taken on May 10, 1970. This image, by Ray Lussier, captures Orr in mid-air after tripping Noel Picard of the St. Louis Blues after scoring the goal. This goal, a game-winner in overtime, clinched the Bruins' first Stanley Cup since 1941.

Bucs are the same. Teams like that need a way in even if they lose the conference tournament

Still have a couple games vs Central Arkansas and the finish up with Lipscomb.

Gonna lose our coach I'm afraid................

100% agree. ETSU and Peay are really good baseball teams that can compete with anyone this year........heck add Tennessee Tech.

Add UT and Vandy......this state has some great college baseball

Oh. That was strange. Whole house shaking.
