Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[knoxvol52]

I’m not mad about it, but certainly frustrated and could understand how anyone could be, especially after the season started so well. You’d like to see the team get better as the season goes on, not worse. Bet TV would agree.

Might end up to be a rebuilding season, totally fine, even after a incredible portal recruiting haul, just hope the boys can finish strong so they can feel good about the growth they made and carry that mindset into the offseason. Some guys that have underperformed (Curley) will need to be tomorrows leaders for the incredible recruiting classes we have coming in.

Baseball is such a “head game”.

Curley will be drafted in June.

I would guess Tony is mad about it.

CTV knew it was going to be a semi- rebuild this season. Losing 131 home runs and whole starting weekend rotation and key pieces out of BP wasn't going to be easy to replace. These young guys are going through learning pains and fans are being impatient. I get it, we all want to win the Championship but if this group makes it to a Super Regional and loses it will be a terrific season overall.

Typical Vanderbilt clown. Not sure how anything that happened this weekend in a closely contested series proved their school values baseball more. Because of a 2 hour weather delay on a Sunday night that had a smaller crowd stick around?

Thanks to whoever posted that. Let that eat at you.

I think you 100% have to do this.

Nothing to lose against ARK. Shake it up. Replace entire 2nd and 3rd day pitching. Can’t allow Phillips to give up any more bases. Just can’t at this level. Probably need to replace some hitters too. Lineup is stale.

Pitching is not good, its average.

Having four years in a S&C program cannot be understated. Our talent got gassed 3/4 of the year. Bring in another top class amd reload.

Gotta love Slay

Watching 13 year olds hit the hole every time is not going to make me feel better about myself.

Anybody mad about a top 15-20 squad one season after winning a NC - the first in school history - and having 8 players drafted is an unserious person

The fact we're disappointed is a good thing too no?

True.

I bet he’s still mad, though.

Do you know what a bandog is? It has a bite force of 730psi, just behind a kangal's 743psi. Compared to a gorilla's 1,300. . .

Also, a kangal looks like such a nice dog, makes you wonder how it can bite so hard, til you see it standing next to a man. . .

Meet the giant Ovcharka. Russians used to use them to keep prisoners in check. AKA Caucasian Shepard dog. Cute and cuddly till they ain't.

His show on 102.5 in Nashville is awful, dating back to Jared and the GM when Floyd Reese was cohost.

All they did was get on and sh*t on Titans decisions post Floyd, sh*t on Vols, and just have a know it all air about them.

I actively avoid 102.5 because of that show and have found 104.5 a better alternative for Nashville sports radio.

Hard to argue with Ramon Foster on 104.5 AM and Ron Slay on 104.5 PM.

Anyways. Screw Jared. He’s a bum.

 

[Jackcrevol]

On beisbol,

Fold in more talent. We'll be fine.

League is just better this year.

 

[UpstateVol613]

Being realistic of where we stand my best case scenario is we host a regional and get a rematch with Vandy in Nashville for the Super Regionals.

Should’ve clarified any *fan*.

I’d venture a guess that everyone in the clubhouse is mad about it.

I can't listen to him. His takes are horrid, he says crazy stuff just so people get fired up, he didn't believe half the things he says, he can't because their so easily dissected.

104.5 is much better radio, in every possible way.

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

I've been in Nashville a while now and haven't once listened to 102.5

So it's like...Vandy hot take radio?

 

[KB5252]

Ok everyone, name your "walk-up song"

I'll start it off with a couple of old songs I think are perfect.

"Strokin"

"Swingin"

It's not even that, Vandy isn't relevant enough in anything to occupy more than an hour during the day on that station. It's just like shock jock sports radio with stupid takes and it doesn't help the "big draw", Stillman sounds exactly like what I imagine a pedophile would sound like.

MJ, and then Kareem due to position.
Bird & Magic next.
Then Duncan.
I’ll take Kobe as my 6th man

You can tell that even that Vandy idjit doesn't believe what he is saying. He's pleading for attention.
